This unsettled issue requires assessing the spectrum of existing modes of communication - both implicit and explicit, both biological and technological - employed by road users today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNOTE: SAE EDGE™ Research Reports are intended to identify and illuminate key issues in emerging, but still unsettled, technologies of interest to the mobility industry.

The \"Dreamliner,\" the first true \"flying data center,\" could no longer be certified for airworthiness ignoring \"sabotage,\" like the classic safety regulation for commercial passenger aircraft - as its extensive application of data networks, including enhanced external digital communication, forced the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), for the first time, to set \"Special Conditions\" for cyber-security.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the 15 years that followed, airworthiness regulation followed suit, and all key rule-making, regulation-making, and standard-making organizations weighed in to establish a new airworthiness cyber-security superset of legislation, regulation, and standardization. The resulting International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) resolutions, U.S. and European Union (EU) legislation, FAA and European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) regulation and the DO-326\/ED-202 set of standards are about to become the new standards for legislation, regulation, and best practices as soon as 2020, and in fact - some of them are already in effect. This emerging superset of documents is now carefully studied by all relevant actors - including industry, regulators, and academia - as the aviation ecosystem moves forward with DO-326\/ED-202-set training, gap-analysis, and even with certification itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis report suggests a deeper analysis of these sets of regulatory documents and their effects on the aviation sector as they gradually become the law-of-the-land, starting with their expected effects on the aviation ecosystem, the issues they pose to supply chains, and the challenges they present to the airworthiness certification process itself. Then, this report examines the major DO-326\/ED-202-set gaps, inherent dilemmas and methodological uncertainties. For each such unsettled domain, six aspects are reviewed. Finally, practical solution-seeking processes are proposed, and some specific potential frameworks and solutions are pointed out whenever applicable. It is the intention of this report that these insights and observations would assist regulators, applicants, and standard-makers throughout the early 2020s with accommodating this new regulation and start adjusting it to emerging realities.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56300153700725,"sku":"9781468601893","price":89.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781468601893_17d60688-b2d4-4fde-a4a5-e4d3b5606aa6.jpg?v=1786020617"},{"product_id":"9781468602401","title":"Unsettled Topics on Nondestructive Testing of Additively Manufactured Parts in the Mobility Industry","description":"\u003cp\u003eAdditive manufacturing (AM) technology, also known as 3D printing, has transitioned from concepts and prototypes to part-for-part substitution and the creation of unique AM-specific part geometries. These applications are increasingly present in demanding, mission-critical fields such as medicine and aerospace, which require materials with certain thermal, stiffness, corrosion, and static loading properties. To advance in these arenas, metallic, ceramic, and polymer composite AM parts need to be free from discontinuities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturing processes have to be stable, robust, and repeatable.

The potential impact of ADS on safety, efficiency, and user experience are extremely significant.

This report explores the policy aspects related to ADS, explains the key stakeholders, identifies unsettled issues, and proposes a number of steps to move forward and improve the current situation. It is hoped that the report will provide a valuable resource to those involved in the definition of ADS policy from both public and private perspectives.

Lack of timely response will guarantee failure to meet demands. Immediately that creates a necessity to identify means of coping and judging new technologies based on possible speed of adoption. Paralleling the challenges are developments in capability, both recent and decades old. Some steps (e.g., Global Positioning System (GPS) backup) are well known and, in fact, should have progressed further long ago. Others (e.g., sharing raw measurements instead of position fixes) are equally well known and, if followed by further flight tests initiated (and successful) years ago, would have produced a wealth of in-flight experience by now if development had continued. Other possibilities (e.g., automated pilot override) are much less common and are considered largely experimental.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis SAE EDGE™ Research Report is aimed at focusing industry attention on unsettled ATM issues and activities that appear most likely to offer solutions, starting with the near term and continuing on toward increasing versatility and confidence as experience accumulates.
