Airworthiness

A Few Words on Airworthiness

  • Aeronautical systems undergo a stringent and precisely defined qualification and certification process defined and supervised by legitimized Authorities such as FAA for the USA and EASA for Europe.
  • Airworthiness qualification requirements depend on safety-criticality of a system and the potential consequences of its failure.
  • Any system making use of radio communications between its components will have to prove the same level of reliability as its wired counterpart. Assessment of a system or function is carried out in the context of its use.
  • ICAO will develop Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS) for providing the technical basis for certification of future WAIC systems.
    Safety-related radio frequency spectrum is considered as one of the corner stones for the airworthiness of future WAIC systems.
