The goal of this activity is to develop the awareness that an airworthiness approach to certification needs to be determined as early as possible. Since the risk of design is something that DoD customers can choose to accept, an early look at the design and what potential risks need to be mitigated and design aspects that will result in residual risks. Completing this task provides a mechanism to consider a phased approach to which criteria are to be considered before you build the Basis of Certification.
WHAT WILL YOU ACCOMPLISH
Complete the Airwrothiness Determination Form attached. Read details below.
Review the ADF-516C template and familiarize yourself with the sections of the document as discussed in the Airworthiness Determination Form (PPTX) ATTACHED.
Review the functions and design of the system and write a system description this should largely be a cut and paste exercise with any design assumptions you made in order to complete the assignment. You will use the same system descriptions in the ADF, Basis of Certification (refer to the System Description worksheet in the Certification Basis template), and your Airworthiness Plan. To help you flush out your system design, consider using any information presented as well as, FAA Order 8130.34D Safety Checklist, Appendix D, to gain insight on the types of questions an auditor or a regulator might ask to understand how your system would function.
