Description
A new notice of proposed amendment (NPA) from the European Aviation Safety Agency is aimed at updating flight training simulators to keep pace with current and proposed training requirements addressing approach-to-stalls; upset prevention and recovery; increasing the fidelity of the simulation of engine and airframe icing effects; and developing and deploying an instructor operating station feedback tool. Additionally, the NPA proposes the option to qualify simulators for the post-stall regime based on a special evaluation. These optional fidelity and testing requirements would support simulator operators having dual-qualified devices (both FAA- and EASA-qualified). Comments on the NPA are due Sept. 25, 2017.
