Engineering & Support TRAINING Operating a flight inspection organisation is complex. While flight inspection aircraft and flight inspection systems can be purchased on the market, the project management of these high volume investment projects is not an easy matter. To economically run a flight inspection unit in today’s regulatory framework while at the same time meeting the quality and cost criteria of clients represents an extraordinary challenge for the qualification of both staff and management. With a cumulated company experience in flight inspection (flight inspection technology, flight operations, maintenance and organisation) of well over 500 man-years, and with the background of a highly successful flight inspection organisation, FCS is able to support other flight inspection organisations in optimising their operations, to assist with trouble-shooting and to provide training for flight inspection and maintenance staff. You can profit from a wealth of experience! Training course topics are: Flight inspection basic course, for airport management personnel and airport engineers Flight inspection expert course Flight Validation Please send us your request and we will provide you with an attractive offer tailored to your training or consultancy requirements.

Flight Validation FLIGHT VALIDATION OF FIXED WING PROCEDURES, RNP According to ICAO Document 9906/Vol 5 – Quality Manual for Instrument Procedure Design, publication of a new or modified approach or departure procedure requires a qualified flight validation as a prerequisite. Common to all types of procedures is the desktop validation of the draft procedures, followed by a flight validation with respect to work load and flyability of the procedure with a King Air 350 of FCS. This entails a renewed validation of charts and checking of issued related to flight operations, e.g. suitability of published COM frequencies and a qualitative assessment of obstacles. Validation of the NAV database is an essential task in this process, where FCS checks the database’s contents compared to the AIP both in ARINC 424 and FMS formats employing a specialized validation tool. The validation flight is performed with a dedicated test (preproduction) database coded exclusively for FCS in the regular industry processing chain, as a safety precaution. FCS validation of RNP procedures including LPV (APV SBAS) and GNSS or conventional navaids based RNAV, procedures is fully supported by the FCS aircraft’s flight management system (FMS) and tight integration of FIS and cockpit. Results are documented by flight validation and flight inspection reports, prerequisite for publication of the procedures in the AIP. A process to validate new procedures was introduced in Germany already in 2001. The task is performed by flight validation pilots specially qualified and licensed for this purpose. » Validating the NAV database » LPV-200 precision approaches » P-RNAV Copyright © 2020 FCS – All Rights Reserved ContactPrivacy PolicyImprint
