Abstract

The airworthiness certification of automatic flight guidance and control system of civil aircraft faces challenges due to its highly integrated and increasingly complex design. In this paper, the airworthiness documentation system of automatic flight guidance and control system is analyzed. And corresponding airworthiness documents such as advisory circulars and equipment standard orders and certification procedures are classified and interpreted. On this basis, the determination principle of system design requirements and certification basis, as well as compliance methods and certification elements of automatic flight guidance and control system, are given in terms of system development and airworthiness certification. This paper provides help for evaluating the airworthiness compliance of AFGCS, especially for formulating certification plan in the early development stage and reducing the risk of the certification in the later stage.
