Federal Aviation Administration Data Communications Implementation Team (DCIT) Ground Test Facility– Gregg Anderson

Federal Aviation Administration Would a ground test facility be economically beneficial A Ground test facility could provide the following benefits: A representative ground test facility in accordance with AC A, necessary for regulatory validation compliance. An avionics engineering development test tool for interoperability/functionality. A representative ATC Data Comm end system that would potentially minimize regulatory oversight by allowing a ground-to-ground connection between avionics and ATSU. This may afford a reduction in aircraft cert office imposed lab, ground and flight testing in support of type design and flight standards inspector operational approvals. Ability to create an FAA monitoring and reporting system allowing for early identification of deficiency reports that may impact our ground and airborne standards (i.e. SC214/WG78).
