Applying the New Mandatory Aviation Systems/Safety Regulations: ARP4754A (with ARP4761/A)
Thursday 4th November 2021
9.30am-4.30pm
The now nearly-mandatory SAE-ARP4754A provides guidance for the development of aircraft and aircraft systems while taking into account the overall aircraft operating environment and functions. ARP4754 was long “suggested” for commercial avionics; the new ARP4754A is now required and increasingly mandatory for all avionics/avionics including worldwide militaries and UAV’s.. ARP-754A is commonly called “DO-178 for Aviation Systems”, but it’s really much different: ARP4754A requires detailed Safety processes (ARP4761/A) with FHA, PSSA, and SSA’s to determine then prove design, architecture, and safety features. ARP4754A also requires detailed data, systems-level planning, traceability, V&V and tight configuration management. While bearing some semblance to DO-178C/Do-254, ARP4754A really covers the Avionics Development Ecosystem and is a mandatory foundation – it must come BEFORE hardware and software but be continually addressed during development. This course is for those avionics engineers wanting to understand and apply better ARP4754A compliance.
KEY FEATURES:

WHO IS IT FOR:
Attendees may include aviation engineers, managers, safety engineers, systems engineers, or hardware/software engineers. A basic understanding of engineering processes and aircraft/avionics systems is helpful but not required.
