U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular 1 Initiated by: AFS-340 DATE: 5/24/95 AC NO: 90-89A AMATEUR-BUILT AIRCRAFT AND ULTRALIGHT FLIGHT TESTING HANDBOOK U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular i Subject: AMATEUR-BUILT AIRCRAFT Date: 5/24/95 AC No: 90-89A & ULTRALIGHT FLIGHT Initiated by: AFS-340 Change: TESTING HANDBOOK 1. PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC) sets forth suggestions and safety related recommendations to assist amateur and ultralight builders in developing individualized aircraft flight test plans. 2. CANCELLATION. AC 90-89, Amateur- Built Aircraft Flight Testing Handbook, dated September 18, 1989, is cancelled. 3. RELATED READING MATERIAL. A list of selected reading material on amateur-built/ ultralight flight testing and first flight experience may be found in appendix 3. 4. BACKGROUND. a. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), and the United States Ultralight Association (USUA) are concerned and committed to improving the safety record of amateur-built and ultralight aircraft. b. The FAA Administrator, T. Allen McArtor, and EAA President, Paul H. Poberezny, signed a Memorandum of Agreement on August 1, 1988, which addressed the need for educational and safety programs to assist amateur-builders in test flying their aircraft. In accordance with that agreement, this AC provides guidelines for flight testing amateurbuilt aircraft. c. As part of the FAA’s continuing efforts to improve the safety record of all types of general aviation aircraft, this AC has been revised to include flight testing recommendations for canard-type and ultralight aircraft. 5. DEFINITIONS. The following terms are defined for use in this AC. a. Amateur-built aircraft means an aircraft issued an Experimental Airworthiness Certificate under the provisions of Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) § 21.191 (g). b. The term ultralight means a vehicle that meets the requirements of FAR § 103.1. c. The term ultralight in this AC also means a two-place training vehicle of 496 pounds or less, operating under an EAA or USUA exemption to FAR Part 103. d. For the purpose of this AC, both an amateur- built aircraft and a ultralight vehicle will be referred to as an ‘‘aircraft.’’ 6. DISCUSSION. a. This AC’s purpose is the following: (1) To make amateur-built/ultralight aircraft pilots aware that test flying an aircraft is a critical undertaking, which should be approached with thorough planning, skill, and common sense. (2) To provide recommendations and suggestions that can be combined with other sources on test flying (e.g., the aircraft plan/kit manufacturer’s flight testing instructions, other flight testing data). This will assist the amateur/ultralight owner to develop a detailed flight test plan, tailored for their aircraft and resources. ii AC 90-89A 5/24/95 b. The flight test plan is the heart of all professional flight testing. The plan should account for every hour spent in the flight test phase and should be adhered to with the same respect for the unknown that all successful test pilots share. The time allotted for each phase of a personalized flight test plan may vary, and each phase may have more events or checks than suggested in this AC. The goals, however, should be the same. c. The two goals for an amateur builder/ ultralight owner should be as follows: (1) At the end of the aircraft’s flight test phase, the aircraft will have been adequately tested and found airworthy and safe to operate within its established operational envelope. (2) Incorporation of the flight test operational and performance data into the aircraft’s flight manual so the pilot can reference the data prior to each flight. 7. REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. a. This AC is designed as a reference document to assist in preparing a flight test plan for an amateur-built or ultralight aircraft. (1) The suggestions and recommendations in chapters 1 through 6 are for conventionallydesigned aircraft with an air-cooled, 4-cycle, reciprocating engine that develops less than 200 horsepower with a fixed pitch propeller. (2) Chapter 7 deals with flight testing recommendations for canard aircraft.
