ED Decision 2020/008/R
GENERAL
(a) Validation is the necessary final quality assurance step in the flight procedure design. Validation may consist of ground validation and/or flight validation. ICAO Doc 9906 Volume 5 ‘Validation of Instrument Flight Procedures’ provides guidance for conducting the validation process for instrument flight procedures, including safety, ability to be flown and verification of data accuracy and completeness. Ground validation is always undertaken, but flight validation may not always be required.
(b) The flight procedure may be validated using one or more of the following methods as deemed necessary for the intended use:
(1) airspace modelling;
(2) ATC simulation;
(3) live trials;
(4) flight simulation;
(5) data analytical tools;
(6) statistical analysis;
(7) collision risk modelling; and/or
(8) noise and emissions modelling.
