This advisory circular (AC) provides guidance and acceptable methods, but not the only methods, that may be used to demonstrate compliance with 14 CFR 33.28, Electrical and Electronic Engine Control Systems. Like all AC material, this AC is not, in itself, mandatory and does not constitute a regulation.

This advisory circular (AC) provides “best practices” for airborne electronic hardware (AEH) design assurance and, is intended to be complementary information to EUROCAE ED-80, Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Hardware, RTCA DO-254, Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Hardware, and AC 20-152A, Development Assurance for Airborne Electronic Hardware.

This AC provides guidance for a new type certificate (TC) or a change to an existing TC when the certification basis requires you to address the HIRF certification requirements of §§ 23.1308 (Amendment 23-57), 23.2520 (Amendment 23-65), 25.1317, 27.1317, or § 29.1317.

Provides information on obtaining printed copies of this document or electronic access to it. Provides information on obtaining printed copies of this document or electronic access to it.

If you are planning to use an electronic data storage system as your means of retention for your type design data, we recommend you follow the guidance outlined in AC 21-48, Using Electronic Modeling Systems as Primary Type Design Data.

Provides revised guidelines on the marking of aircraft powerplant instruments and electronic displays (cathode ray tubes, etc.). These guidelines offer acceptable, but not exclusive, methods of compliance with the powerplant instrument color marking requirements.

An assessment plan documents the controlled, repeatable processes for assessing the reliability of aircraft and engine electronic and electrical systems, including their electromechanical elements and equipment.

This advisory circular (AC) provides recommendations to ensure the safety of electronic news gathering (ENG) operations. Like all advisory material, this AC is not mandatory and does not constitute a regulation.

The AC acknowledges the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) Publication #12, “Recommended Practices and Guidelines for an Integrated Flightdeck/Cockpit in a 14 CFR (or equivalent) Certificated Airplane,” as an acceptable means for showing compliance with applicable requirements for electronic displays in part 23 airplanes.
