  • In this report US and Korea civil and military simulator certification system is researched, and a plan for improvement is proposed. Korean simulator certification system should adopt FAA's system and improve upon it. Certification criteria should have a basis on FAA certification criteria and add military operation characteristics selectively. Flight test data, used as comparison criteria in certification, should be acquired in package during aircraft development or overseas acquisition. The establishment of certification system is expected to improve external credibility and improve competitiveness in overseas market.

  • As the use of software is increasing in aircraft system, an exposure to the threat of safety and security also continues to grow. Although certification criteria for software safety such as DO-178C have already been established, specific certification criteria for software security have not yet been included. Recently DO-326A, DO-356 and DO-355 have been published separately for aircraft and system airworthiness security certification criteria. However, to comply individual certification criteria and procedures, it requires the additional cost and effort. Therefore, this paper proposes the efficient integrated certification criteria saving cost, effort and time by combining the certification criteria for software safety and security.

  • Civil aircraft tires require a certification according to the Technical Standard Order Authorization(TSOA) procedure. TSO-C62d contains minimum performance standards for aircraft tires. The TSOA covers design and manufacturing of the tire only. To install a TSO article on aircraft requires an installation approval. In this paper, TSOA procedure and the certification requirements for aircraft tires will be presented.

  • For the certification of aircraft and part, it must be show the compliance with applicable requirements through system safety assessment. The safety assessment process should be planned and managed to provide the necessary assurance that all relevant failure conditions have been identified and that all significant combinations of failures which could cause those failure conditions have been considered. Complex systems, especially aircraft, should take into account any additional complexities and interdependencies which arise due to integration. In all cases involving integrated systems, the safety assessment process is of fundamental importance in establishing appropriate safety objectives for the system and determining that the implementation satisfies these objectives. This study review the safety assessment for the certification process of the aircraft engine system and analyze turbo-fan engine by fault analysis method for compliance with airworthiness requirement of aircraft engine system.

  • Since the time, cost and lack of regulatory information and guidance, one of the largest regulatory obstacles for an airframe manufacturer of polymer based advanced composite materials in certified aircraft applications, is to generate design allowables that will satisfy Airworthiness Regulations. In the past two decades, the design allowables used in military aircraft had been generated and applied in Korea, however the qualification of composite materials used in certifying airframe structure was not accomplished for design and demonstration of compliance to applicable airworthiness regulation. It is the intend of this paper that provide the basis of composite material qualification for small aircraft certification to the airworthiness regulation.

  • Civilian aircraft industry, even if the superior performance of the product in order to ensure the safety of aircraft navigation safety requirements necessary for compliance does not receive a legally recognized can not be used in aircraft characteristics. These are applied in a variety of safety in avionics for navigation of civil aircraft certification standards for the technology is implemented. KTSO-C113 aircraft for the purpose of electronic display technology to authenticate standard contains minimum performance standards. Standard design and manufacturing technology for type approval means approval by mounting the aircraft in order to use a separate approval is required. Through this paper, multi-display technology standards for aircraft type certification approval system and demonstrate compliance with the requirements for the certification practices introduced are presented.

  • Airworthiness authorities specify the technical standards of airworthiness that propose minimum requirement of the commercial transport category and apply the rules in the certification process to ensure the safety of the aircraft. The Federal Aviation Administration and other national airworthiness authorities define the fatal accident risk levels for the safety assessment of the aircraft system and establish standard procedures to apply both qualitative and quantitative analysis techniques. However, an accident or incident may occur by the combination of various factors, although the aircraft is designed in accordance with the strict standards and approval by the Airworthiness Authorities. There are some key factors, such as human error, unpredictable complex system failures, degradation of the components reliability, improper maintenance task and intervals. Risk can be reduced by reflecting aircraft operational experience with similar types of aircraft in the process of aircraft development and safety assessment. Result of the root cause analysis for the Airbus A300-600 incident in which the aircraft engine reverser was deployed in the air have been introduced to reflect the design of system and related components. Also, this paper suggests to create a big-database in order to provide a feed-back to the FAR Part 25 transport category design and safety assessment of the operational experience.

  • In 2021, Virgin Orbit converted a 747-400 aircraft into an air launch platform, and successfully launched it twice in February and July. Compared to the existing ground launch, interest in the air launch is increasing due to its great utility, such as its independence from the launch location or weather, cost reducing factor, shorter launch preparation time, and its benefit pursuant to altitude and speed. Additionally, as small satellites have similar performance to mid/large satellites in the past due to the miniaturization and precision of electronic equipment, small satellite launches are expected to dominate in the future. In this paper, institutional certification methods such as domestic, overseas, civilian and military airworthiness certification regulations/procedures are reviewed to ensure flight safety of aerial projectiles using large domestic civil aircraft, and applicable civil and military airworthiness certification technology standards are reviewed and analyzed. Additionally, we will review and suggest effective airworthiness certification application plans that reflect the reality, and present airworthiness certification standards (draft) for aerial launch vehicles, by analyzing applicable airworthiness certification technical standards when remodeling aerial launch vehicles.

  • Civil aircraft noise certification standard is based on the ICAO Annex 16 Vol. 1. And, the standard uses A-Weighted SPL, EPNL and SEL method depending on the aircraft category. Korean noise standards, KAS 36 and other nation's CS 36 and FAR 36 noise standards were developed and revised according to the international noise standards, ICAO Annex 16. And, the national noise requirements are equivalent each other. The small airplane noise certification requires only take-off noise level with A-Weighted SPL in dB(A) unit. The first Korean aircraft noise certification was performed for the KC-100 certification in August 2012 with Korean authority and U.S. FAA. The noise certification requires much knowledge and experience in flight tests and noise data processing. In this study, the noise test requirements, test conditions and data correcting methods are shown with the test examples.

  • This research seeks to investigate the economic feasibility of a small size aircraft development and BASA certification enterprise. To achieve the objective, this research investigates cost which requires for proceeding a small size aircraft development and BASA certification enterprise. This research also investigates the economic effects and economic benefits acquired from exporting civil aircraft. Costs and benefits are assumed using cash flow by types of airplanes. On the basis of the cash flow, this research calculates B/C ratio, NPV, IRR for investigating the economic feasibility. The result shows that there are economic feasibility for both very light jet and piston aircraft. Between these two aircraft types, more economic feasibility exist for very light jet than piston aircraft.
