1 ASTM International Committee F38 on Unmanned Aircraft Systems
Accessing the Airspace Using ASTM International Standards AUVSI Unmanned Systems North America 2007 F38 Workshop Washington, DC / 10 August 2007
2 F38 Mission & Strategy
3 F38 Mission - Vision, Mission, and Operating Principles
The Vision for F38 is to help provide routine, safe UAS operations in civil airspace through standardization. The Mission of F38 is to produce practical, consensus standards that facilitate UAS operations at an acceptable level of safety. These standards include the design, manufacture, maintenance and operation of unmanned aircraft systems as well as the training and qualification of personnel. Committee F38 supports industry, academia, government organizations and regulatory authorities. F38 operates under the principles that practical standards are a cost effective means of promoting commercial success, and that consensus processes protect the balance of interests among stakeholders.
4 F38 Outlined Workflow - Environmental Basis for Workflow
Unregulated Minimum regulation Regulation via Standards Increasing Regulation Experimental Aircraft Club Rules, Guides, Insurance Voluntary Standards, Club Practices Comply w/ Industry Standards Show Compliance w/ Rules; can use TSO or Industry Standards with Increasing Reliability and Assurance Requirements Small: Kites, Balloons, Rockets, Models Moored Balloons, Kites, Unmanned Rockets, Unmanned Free Balloons, Ultralights, and Parachutists Light Sport Aircraft General Aviation, VFR Ops Transports, IFR Ops Large Aircraft, Airlines, Overwater, & Int’l Ops
5 F38 Outlined Workflow - Environmental Basis for Workflow / Business Case
Which requires reducing risk. Commercial success requires profitable return. Transfer some risk to insurers. Standards But insurers want predictability. Which leads to profitable returns. Which makes our industry safe and reliable. So they require us to abide by standards.
6 About ASTM International
7 ASTM International’s Primary Objective
… is to be the foremost developer and provider of consensus standards, related technical information, and services having globally recognized quality and market relevance. Member participation from around the world is what makes ASTM a truly international standards development organization. ASTM opens its doors to all interested individuals and organizations from around the globe that want to participate in the Society's consensus process for standards development. This process ensures that all interested parties have an equal vote in determining a standard's content. ASTM's enduring philosophy of consensus without borders helps make ASTM responsive and relevant to the needs of the global marketplace. As a result, more than 40 percent of ASTM's standards are sold outside the United States.
8 The ASTM International Standards Development Process
A Proven and Practical System that is Driven by Direct-Stakeholder Participation, for Developing Voluntary, Consensus Standards for Materials, Products, Systems & Services World-Wide. A Portfolio of Approximately 12,000 Standards Used Internationally; 3,500 are the Basis of National Standards and Regulation in 76 Countries. Always Reflect Current Technology as they are Continually Revised. Over 31,000 Members from 130 Countries Participate on ASTM International Committees; users from 175 countries. Standards Development Process complies with WTO’s TBT Requirements. No Project Costs.

23 Gap Analysis: Outlining F38 Workflow
24 F38 Structure and Workflow - Gap Analysis Objective
Gap Analysis Objectives To provide guidance for standards bodies and user groups engaged in developing or adopting standards governing unmanned aircraft system design, manufacture, test, training, operation, and maintenance To identify gaps in standards coverage unique to needs of unmanned aviation To preclude duplicating existing standards already applicable to unmanned aviation To be the leader and first choice in standards deliverables for the UAS industry by delivering prompt and relevant standards products to industry

26 From the ASTM F38.01 Standards Roadmap: Level 2 - Avionics
F38 Structure and Workflow - Gap Analysis Structure (Supplement at End) …An example of in-depth research From the ASTM F38.01 Standards Roadmap: Level 2 - Avionics Comm/Nav	RTCA DO-187, DO-208, DO-278 Computers	(SAE AS-2 works) Safety/Sit. Aware	MIL-STD 882 Sense & Avoid	ASTM F Standard Specification for Design and Performance of an Airborne Sense-and-Avoid System, RTCA DO-268 Anti-icing/Deicing	SAE AS5498, AIR 4367 Transponders	FAA TSO Links	Security-none; NATO STANAG 4586; RTCA DO-254; SAE ARP4791 Software	RTCA DO-178B General	(SAE AS-1 works); ARINC 429 (analog) and 629 (digital) The major lacking point, anywhere, is an actual common avoidance algorithm for the see and avoid industry. Since a collision in 1986 in LAX, there has been no US-based collision. It spurred industry to model and improve safety. But then liability interrupted. If a collision occurred with a given company’s algorithm, then they would be liable. So the FAA assumed ownership of the common avoidance algorithm; they have the liability for it. With that coverage, the companies came out and used the same common baseline. There will likely have to be another FAA S&A algorithm. That will be the next step, and the result of national airspace modeling (which D0D has started) RTCA DO 268 actually contains the TCAS Links – Data link security has no standards (at least in the unclassified world) of ensuring that you and only you can talk to your plane over a datalink. Making it hacker-proof. The WK is not addressing the security issue. It does look at the requirements covering the design and performance of UAV data link systems. This specification includes requirements to provide radio frequency (RF) links capable of transmitting data for command and control of the air vehicle, payload data and other data between the air vehicle and control station. Found no standard for the reliability of datalink secrutigy. NSA may have some, but we don’t.

35 Benefits of Adoption Adoption Not Necessary for Use, BUT…..
Visibility via ASSIST database Measure of confidence in document Identifies DoD Technical Focal Point Adoption notice may provide application and other guidance ADOPTION DOES NOT MEAN NGS MUST BE USED -- ONLY THAT SOMEONE IN DoD IS USING NGS NOTES TO INSTRUCTORS: Only adopted NGS indexed in the DoDISS and ASSIST are available free of charge to DoD requesters. If a NGS is likely to have wide usage and application, it should be adopted. If it is an esoteric standard with limited usage and application, then there probably is not much advantage to adopting it. If the NSSN is successful at making full text NGS available on-line, the DoD adoption program will probably cease or be changed dramatically, since the two main reasons for adoption -- availability and visibility -- will be covered by NSSN. 22 22

The intent was to find the leading resources, those most significant. Other references can be detailed at an individual task level. These are the industry recognized guidance materials that are used in manned and unmanned ways of doing business from design to flight. A first example of plugging the gap, is the catapult system. The first step is to get these aircraft flying, and there was no safe and standardized means by which to do it. Our membership has worked with all the manufactures in this niche market for pneumatic and hydraulic and bungee catapults (Robinics out of Finland, for example, is one of the lead companies). We go directly to industry, and our input is international in scope. Arresting gear is another one of the niche areas identified that needs to be addressee. Hunter and Shadow for example have portable arresting gear – very small market; use by a hundred or so models. Important to get. What they use on aircraft carriers are very complicated and steam-driven systems. We want a simplified, wide-market application to expedite growth and proliferate safe operation in recoveries. “If you can carry an aircraft carrier arresting gear around with you in a truck, then yes, we’re done!” General: there are two very different markets. You have the RC/mini industry that has their very finite aw issues. It draws the line between recreation or sport UAV and professional.

This represents the depth of detail in F2501. A great perspective is looking at solar weather for UAVs. Issues like the aurora can disrupt communications; airliners fly below it. But we looked at it as a consideration for HALE aircraft. TPH (Temperature Pressure and Humidity).

Like with engines, the work product preceded the mapping. But the point here is that a niche need is identified, where UAV-specific criteria need to be identified. GOOD POINT: where a higher level standard exists on a topic, F38 will never duplicate or create conflicting information. They will move from that into more specifics as may be needed to suit UAVs. SAE E25 are a very strong committee on standards for aviation engines; we are always reviewing their portfolio for reference. Arresting gear – very large; volleyball nets used for lack of standard.

69 The ASTM F38.02 Standards Roadmap: Level 1 - Operations
UAS Operations General Flight Ground Terminology Symbology VFR IFR Payloads Taxi Takeoff Landings Getting away from the hardware-oriented standards now, and moving more into operations. These area regarding how you talk about and operate your UAV. What is unique to this industry, is ground and taxi. For example, UAVs like globalhawk had to emergency land on a runway that was not the intended runway. It calls the tower and says “I’ll be there in 5 minutes.” Now, what do you do with the lump of aircraft sitting on your runway. Perhaps some kind of switching and directions in the form of placards, etc. How do you smart operate. See and avoid will have to grow to also include ground equipment avoidance, tying it into throttle and brakes as well as maneuvering.

Needed items being pushed by DoD. Universal interface refers to a multipurpose type of adapters, rack sizes, connectors, flanges for swapping out and installing different payloads. Weapons: General Atomics has the lead there. RTCA is not chartered or covering this area. The military, AF in particular, has a complex process called seek eagle, which is to certify the carriage and release of any kind of weapon off each kind of station on winged aircraft. So an ordinance has to be certified to come off each kind of pilon, with each kind of plane, with each kind of guidance system. On manned aircraft there is a human in the loop to arm or safe the weapon. That human intervention needs to be automated. Bombs are deliverable payloads. Nothing exists for positive controls for weapons safing. The military has a real risk of trying to ; one unitifes standard for wepons payloads and safing for unmanned aircraft.

How to shut the engine down, where the tow bar is, etc. Aerospace Ground Equipment If found, call this number, please return to. As far of auto takeoff and landing procedures; they are being designed, but there is no standards.
73 The ASTM F38.03 Standards Roadmap: Level 1 - Qualifications
Crew Qualifications Crew Maintainers Special Pilots Operators Schools Human Factors A&P Mechanics General Commercial F38.03. Ties into FAA part 61 which establishes qualifications for people who fly and maintain aircraft. This is important.
74 The ASTM F38.03 Standards Roadmap: Level 2 – Crew, Maintainer, Special
Pilots	14 CFR Part 61, 67; F2635 Standard Classification for Unmanned Aircraft Pilot Certification Non-Pilot Aircrew	14 CFR 63, 65, 67 Schools	14 CFR 141, 142; SAE ARP5453 Human Factors	SAE ARP4033, ARP4107 (HF Glossary), (SAE G-10 works) Maintainer A&P Mechanics	JI8152 (in work) Schools	14 CFR 147; JI8152 (in work) Human Factors	(SAE G-13 works) General	14 CFR 43; F Standard Practice for Maintenance and Development of Maintenance Manuals for Light UAS What qualifications can be added or relaxed under part 61 and 67 as we go towards unmanned aircraft (or the pilot sitting in the van). What would be the standards for operating and aviation school…. Special Commercial Operators	14 CFR 119, 121, 133, 137
75 The ASTM F38 Standards Roadmap: General
CASA UA25	Australian regulation for certification and operation of unmanned aircraft; MIL-HDBK 516; ASTM F Recommended Practices for Unmanned Aircraft System Airworthiness There are other countries like Australia, that have come up with rules for operating unmanned aircraft. There are some references in existence. F2501 goes across all of those operations: Operation, Certification, Airworthiness. HDBK 516 is the DoD AW Certification process.
76 The ASTM F38 Standards Roadmap: Findings – 5 Categories
Standards exists and explicitly written for UA ASTM F2411 Standard Specification for Design and Performance of an Airborne Sense-and-Avoid System, ASTM F2501 Recommended Practices for Unmanned Aircraft System Airworthiness, ASTM F2505 Practice for Application of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Federal Aviation Regulations Part 21 Requirements to Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Standard exists and directly applicable to UA (“as is”) ASTM D910 Specification for Aviation Gasolines Standard exists and applicable to UA (aviation qualified), but focused elsewhere SAE AIR4911, video interface for entertainment vice reconnaissance systems “The purpose of this document is to establish the requirements for sensor/video interconnect subsystems. These requirements have been driven predominantly, but not exclusively, by aerospace-type military platforms and commercial aircraft. These requirements are intended to be used as the criteria to establish a sensor/video interconnection standard that will foster the development of common hardware to simplify the total interconnectivity of future avionics platforms.” Standard exists on topic, but indirectly applicable to UA (“thread”) IEC 61427:1999, photovoltaic (solar) cells No suitable standard exists UA (none) vice aircraft carrier (MIL-STD 331) catapults Extracting lessons learned through the outline. You can put them into these five buckets. The key areas being those that exist specifically for UAS, those that exist but need to be made relevant. A “thread” is when there is a standard on the topic, but not written for aviation. In the SAE AIR4911 – this is written for entertainment purposes, but is looking for aplication in UAVs.
77 The ASTM F38 Standards Roadmap: Conclusions & Action
Many UAS relevant topics covered in existing standards. Documentation gap for airworthiness now covered in F2501, incorporating over 300 standards. F38 recognizes these existing standards, and focuses on addressing identified gaps now and in the future. Subcommittees and lead writers assigned to address the identified ‘gaps’ in UAS standards. Best Practices draft standards be structured along same lines as briefing and expanded/updated to identify such gaps in standards. New F38 members sought with expertise directly applicable to these gaps.
