12、ocedure or statement is mandatory andmust be followed to comply with this standard, “should”implies recommended, and “may” implies optional at thediscretion of the supplier, manufacturer, or operator. Since“shall” statements are requirements, they include sufficientdetail needed to define compliance

13、 (for example, thresholdvalues, test methods, oversight, reference to other standards).“Should” statements are provided as guidance towards theoverall goal of improving safety, and could include onlysubjective statements. “Should” statements also represent pa-rameters that could be used in safety ev

14、aluations, and couldlead to development of future requirements. “May” statementsare provided to clarify acceptability of a specific item orpractice, and offer options for satisfying requirements.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F38 onUnmannedAircraft Systems and is the d

17、 area and in airspace defined by anations governing aviation authority (GAA). It is assumed thata visual observer(s) will provide for the sense-and-avoidrequirement to prevent collisions with other aircraft and thatthe maximum range and altitude at which a sUAS can be flownwill be specified by the n

18、ations GAA. Unless otherwisespecified by a nations GAA this standard applies only to UAthat have a maximum take off gross weight of 55 lb/25 kg orless.5.
