DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Office of Commercial Space 

Transportation; Safety Approval 

Performance Criteria 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notification of criteria used to 

evaluate the Black Sky Training, Inc. 

(BST) safety approval application. 

SUMMARY: The FAA issued BST a safety 

approval, subject to the provisions of 

Title 51 U.S.C Subtitle V, ch. 509, and 

the orders, rules and regulations issued 

under it. Pursuant to Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) § 414.35, 

this Notice publishes the criteria that 

were used to evaluate the safety 

approval application. 

Background: BST applied for, and 

received, a safety approval for its ability 

to provide as a service, scenario based 

physiology training, which includes 

hypobaric chamber training. BST may 

offer its scenario based physiology 

altitude training as a service to a 

prospective launch and reentry operator 

to meet the applicable crew and 

participant training requirements of 14 

CFR 460.5 and 14 CFR 460.51. 

Criteria Used To Evaluate Safety 

Approval Application: The performance 

criteria for this safety approval include 

14 CFR 61.31(g) for additional training 

required for operating pressurized 

aircraft capable of operating at high 

altitudes. These criteria are FAA 

regulations, which are acceptable 

technical criteria for reviewing a safety 

approval application per 14 CFR 

414.19(a)(1). The FAA’s evaluation 

included assessment of BST’s scenario 

based physiology training lesson plan 

and objectives, which include classroom 

and hypobaric chamber training for 

crew and space flight participants to 

experience and demonstrate knowledge 

of the following through testing: 

• Understand fundamental principles 

of the atmosphere and how it relates to 

the human body. 

• Understand the fundamentals of 

respiratory physiology and how it 

relates to hypoxia. 

• Show competence in the 

identification of the many different 

symptoms and physical signs of 

hypoxia. 

• Show advanced competence in the 

phenomena of neurological impairment 

(time of useful consciousness) due to 

hypoxia. 

• Understand the effects of prolonged 

oxygen use. 

• Understand the difference between 

decompression illness and hypoxia. 

• Demonstrate using different 

scenarios the difference between slow 

decompression and rapid 

decompression. 

• Identify personal symptoms of 

hypoxia and demonstrate donning of 

oxygen mask and ability to perform 

within a hypobaric chamber.

questions about the performance 

criteria, you may contact Randal Maday,
