CS 29.1302 Installed systems and equipment for use by the crew members

Q: How must controls and information intended for crew member use be presented?

They must be presented in a clear and unambiguous form, at a resolution and with a precision appropriate to the crew member tasks.

Q: What are the accessibility and usability requirements for crew member controls and information?

They must be accessible and usable by the crew members in a manner appropriate to the urgency, frequency, and duration of their tasks.

Q: What are the requirements for the operationally relevant behaviour of installed systems and equipment?

The behaviour must be predictable and unambiguous, and designed to enable the crew members to intervene in a manner that is appropriate to accomplish their tasks.

Q: What must installed systems and equipment enable crew members to manage, and what is excluded?

They must enable crew members to manage the errors that result from the kinds of crew member interactions with the system and equipment that can be reasonably expected in service, assuming the crew member acts in good faith. This does not apply to skill-related errors associated with the manual control of the rotorcraft.

Q: Does CS 29.1302 apply to systems used by crew members from positions other than their normal cockpit seating?

Yes, it applies to installed systems and equipment intended to be used by crew members when operating the rotorcraft from their normal seating positions in the cockpit or their operating positions in the cabin.

(2) be accessible and usable by the crew members in a manner appropriate to the urgency, frequency, and duration of their tasks; and

(3) make the crew members aware of the effects their actions may have on the rotorcraft or its systems, if they require awareness for the safe operation of the rotorcraft.

(1) predictable and unambiguous; and

(2) designed to enable the crew members to intervene in a manner that is appropriate to accomplish their tasks.

(d) The installed systems and equipment must enable the crew members to manage the errors that result from the kinds of crew member interactions with the system and equipment that can be reasonably expected in service, assuming the crew member acts in good faith.
