17、0, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States13. Terminology3.1 Refer to Terminology F3060.4. Pilot / Occupant Pilot/Occupant Compartment4.1 Pilot Compartment:4.1.1 For each pilot compartment, the compartment and its equipment must allow each pilot to perform flight crew dutieswithout unreasona

18、ble concentration or fatigue.4.1.2 For each pilot compartment, where the flight crew are separated from the passengers by a partition, there must be a meansto facilitate two-way communication between flight crew and cabin occupants, such as an opening or openable window or dooror other means.F3117/F

19、3117M 18c2NOTE 1A single intercom port from passenger compartment to crew may suffice as other means. If an opening is not provided to allow visualverification of occupant compartment conditions, such as Oxygen System status in Specification F3061/F3061M, other indication means may be requiredfor ot

20、her systems.4.1.3 If communication between flight crew and cabin occupants relies on electrical power, the one-way communication fromthe flight crew to the cabin occupants must be considered an essential electrical load.4.2 Pilot Compartment View:4.2.1 Each pilot compartment must be arranged with su

21、fficiently clear and undistorted view to enable the pilot to safely taxi,takeoff, approach, land, and perform any maneuvers within the operating limitations of the aircraft.4.2.2 Each pilot compartment must be free from glare and reflections that could interfere with the pilots vision. Compliancemus

22、t be shown in all operations for which certification is requested.4.2.3 Each pilot compartment must be designed so that each pilot is protected from the elements so that moderate rain conditionsdo not unduly impair the pilots view of the flight path in normal flight and while landing.4.2.4 A vision

23、system with a transparent display surface located in the pilots outside field of view, such as a head up-display,head mounted display, or other equivalent display, must meet the following requirements:4.2.4.1 While the vision system display is in operation, it must compensate for interference with t

24、he pilots outside field of viewsuch that the combination of what is visible in the display and what remains visible through and around it, enables the pilot toperform the maneuvers specified in 4.2.1 and the pilot compartment to meet the provisions of 4.2.2.4.2.4.2 The pilots view of the external sc

25、ene must be free of interference, distortion, and glare, that would adversely affect thepilots normal performance and workload, considering possible distortion both from windscreen or canopy and from transparentdisplay surface.4.2.4.3 The following tasks associated with the use of the pilots view mu

26、st not be degraded below the level of safety that existedwithout the video imagery:(1) Detection, accurate identification and maneuvering, as necessary, to avoid traffic, terrain, obstacles, and other hazards offlight.(2) Accurate identification and utilization of visual references required for ever

27、y task relevant to the phase of flight.(3) Although, the vision system image requirements relate primarily to the approach and landing phases of flight, the visionsystem image when viewed head up during ground operations should not create unacceptable distractions due to sensor proximityto the taxiw

28、ay surface.4.2.4.4 When the vision system displays imagery and any symbology referenced to the imagery and outside scene topography,including attitude symbology, flight path vector, and flight path angle reference cue, that imagery and symbology must be alignedwith, and scaled to, the external scene

29、.4.2.4.5 The vision system must provide a means to allow the pilot using the display to immediately deactivate and reactivatethe vision system imagery, on demand, without removing the pilots hands from the primary flight controls or thrust controls.4.2.4.6 When the vision system is not in operation,

30、 it may not restrict the pilot from performing the maneuvers specified in 4.2.1and the pilot compartment from meeting the provisions of 4.2.2.5. Controls General5.1 Flight Control Systems Controls:5.1.1 Each control must operate easily, smoothly, and positively enough to allow proper performance of

31、its functions.5.1.2 Controls must be arranged and, except where their function is obvious, identified to provide for convenience in operationand to not create confusion and subsequent inadvertent operation.5.1.3 Airplane aerodynamic flight controls must be designed so that they operate in accordance

33、xiliary devicestowed; rearward or down for flaps down orauxiliary device deployed.Trim tabs (or equivalent) Switch motion or mechanical rotation orcontrol to produce similar rotation of theairplane about an axis parallel to the axiscontrol. Axis of roll trim control may bedisplaced to accommodate co

34、mfortableactuation by the pilot. Direction of pilots handmovement must be in the same sense asairplane response for rudder trim if only aportion of a rotational element is accessible.5.2 Cockpit Controls:F3117/F3117M 18c35.2.1 Each cockpit control must be located and, except where its function is ob

35、vious, identified to provide convenient operationand to not create confusion or be prone to inadvertent operation.5.2.2 The controls must be located and arranged so that the pilot, in the normal seated position in the cockpit, has full andunrestricted movement of each control without interference fr

36、om either clothing or cockpit structure.5.2.3 Detents are an acceptable means to establish control positions associated with particular actions.5.2.4 Powerplant controls must be located:5.2.4.1 For multiengine airplanes, powerplant controls must be located on the pedestal or overhead at or near the

37、center of thecockpit.5.2.4.2 For single and tandem seated single-engine airplanes, powerplant controls must be located on the left side of the consoleor instrument panel.5.2.4.3 For other single-engine airplanes, powerplant controls must be located at or near the center of the cockpit, on thepedesta

38、l, instrument panel, or overhead.5.2.4.4 For airplanes with side-by-side pilot seats and with two sets of powerplant controls, powerplant controls must be locatedon the left and right consoles.5.2.5 When separate and distinct control levers are co-located (such as located together on the pedestal),

39、the control locationorder from left to right must be power (thrust) lever, propeller (rpm control), and mixture control (condition lever and fuel cut-offfor turbine-powered airplanes).5.2.5.1 Power (thrust) levers must be easily distinguishable from other controls, and provide for accurate, consiste

41、(thrust) lever.5.2.5.4 Supercharger controls must be located below or aft of the propeller controls.5.2.5.5 Airplanes with tandem seating or single-place airplanes may utilize control locations on the left side of the cabincompartment; however, location order from left to right must be power (thrust

42、) lever, propeller (rpm control), and mixture control.5.2.6 Identical powerplant controls for each engine must be located to prevent confusion as to the engines they control.5.2.6.1 Conventional multiengine powerplant controls must be located so that the left control(s) operates the left engine(s) a

43、ndthe right control(s) operates the right engine(s).5.2.6.2 On twin-engine airplanes with front and rear engine locations (tandem), the left powerplant controls must operate thefront engine and the right powerplant controls must operate the rear engine.5.2.7 Wing flap and auxiliary lift device contr

46、inds, or in the event of an engine failure, or its use must be limited to low speed maneuvering.5.2.10 Each fuel feed selector control, if present, must be located and arranged so that the pilot can see and reach it withoutmoving any seat or primary flight control or requiring undue or disorienting

47、head/body movement when his seat is at any positionintended for use in flight.5.2.10.1 For a mechanical fuel selector:(1) The indication of the selected fuel valve position must be by means of a pointer and must provide positive identificationand feel (detent, etc.) of the selected position.(2) The
