Internal/External Lighting (Aviation Materiel).

Abstract

This TOP establishes the procedure to conduct a developmental test of an internal and/or external lighting system as well as illumination test of a single or multiple instruments set or any other special purpose light or lights associated with the aircraft operational capability or crew performance, including troop and cargo compartment lighting. The aircraft light or lighting system will be operated during all applicable aircraft operational phases and assessed under all applicable atmospheric and climatic conditions representative of the operational environment the aircraft is expected to see within its operational theater. The primary objectives of this TOP are: (1) to determine if the designated light or lighting system performs its intended function in accordance with the requirements presented in the applicable approved documents; Letter of Requirement (LR), Letter of Agreement (LOA), Required Operational Characteristics (ROC), etc., as reflected through the detailed Test Design Plan (TDP); (2) to establish any detrimental or compromising side effects; (3) to insure human factors criteria have been met; and (4) to determine if the designated light or lighting system conforms to the applicable military specifications and/or standards as well as system specifications.
