Validation of MIL-F-9490D. General Specification for Flight Control System for Piloted Military Aircraft. Volume III. C-5A Heavy Logistics Transport Validation

Abstract

This study was conducted to validate military specification MIL-F- 9490D, 'Flight Control Systems-Design, Installation and Test of, PIloted Aircraft, General Specification for,' dated 6 June 1975 by checking the specification requirements utilizing the experience and knowledge derived during the procurement of the C-5A Heavy Logistics Transport. This validation was based on test and design requirements, existing ground test, flight test, 'in service' usage, and analytical data as was available for this validation process. Each applicable paragraph was examined with regard to practicability, accuracy, and completeness as a requirement for procurement, design, test and installation of flight control systems for future piloted military aircraft. Recommendations have been made with regard to changes considered necessary to improve the practicability, accuracy, and completeness of the specification and to improve or update the Users' Guide.
