CAA NZ Design Delegation Holder’s SeminarMarch 2012
A joint FAA-industry study– Studied the adequacy of current
airworthiness standards throughout a small airplane’s life
– Included pilot training, operations, and maintenance
The July 2009 study served as the stimulus for the part 23 reorganization ARC
Part 23 Certification Process Study

Part 23 Certification Process StudyThe CPS recommended that FAA reorganize part 23 using government / industry standards• Develop performance based standards for
new, safety related technology faster
• Leverage industry participation - efficient standards development.
• Increased agility in adapting new safety technologies
• Administrator still finds compliance

Part 23 ARC Goal – Increase SafetyPart 23 ARC Goal – Increase Safety
Safety Targets of the ARC Members•Minimize Loss of Control accidents•Facilitate the installation of safety enabling technology
•Quantitatively – Our target is to increase product safety, and decrease cost of certification both by a factor of 2.

Part 23 ARC – Current StatusPart 23 ARC – Current Status
• The ARC is developing a recommendation where part 23 requirements would be high level and performance based
• Specific requirements and Methods of Compliance documented in industry standards (ASTM, SAE)
• Better match between requirements and airplane complexity - addresses the Safety Continuum
• Greater agility to adopt/approve new technology

Part 23 ARC – Example of the futurePart 23 ARC – Example of the future
• Current 23.562 is very prescriptive and detailed
• The future: The airplane as a system must be designed to protect all occupants in the event of an emergency landing
• Methods of compliance detailed in industry standardso Stall speed below 45 knots – inflatable restraints onlyo Stall speed between 45-65 knots – add energy absorbing seats or
structureo Stall speed greater than 65 knots – add survivable volume requirements

The “Simple Airplane” Challenge
• Simple design versus simple to operate…or both?
• We’ve done a great job addressing the mental side of operation (terrain, traffic, weather)
• Not so much the physical side – still use Glenn Curtiss’ control scheme– Manipulate speed/attitude to control flight path
– Can we automate operation?
• What technology developed between now and the next 20 years will help aid airplane operation?

• Long term goal – A harmonized set of part 23 standards, based on this ARC effort
• Your support of this effort can help us reach this goal

Summary•The efforts of the ARC may result in a fundamental shift of how general aviation airplanes are approved
•We will establish the appropriate level of safety as a continuum based on complexity and risk
•This is an international effort and we thank you for your support
