FLARM COLLISION WARNIGN SYSTEM – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
1.
A.
This section covers miscellaneous avionic equipment. This includes the FLARM Collision Warning
System. The scope of maintenance is limited to the removal and installation of the components.
The installation instructions provided herein pertains only to the replacement of components
already installed in the aircraft and is not considered to be an installation instruction for the
implementation as a modification. For this, refer to the applicable Service Bulletin or contact the
manufacturer of the aircraft. For further information on the equipment, refer to the appropriate
publications of the equipment manufacturer. For overhaul and repair, the manufacturer of the
equipment has to be consulted.
B.
FLARM Collision Warning System
The FLARM receives position and motion information from an internal 16 channel GPS receiver
with an external antenna. The predicted flight path is calculated by FLARM and the information
transmitted by radio as low-power digital burst signals at one-second intervals. Provided that
they are within receiving range, the signals are received by further aircraft also equipped with
FLARM. The incoming signal is compared with the flight path predicted by calculation for the
second aircraft. At the same time, FLARM compares the predicted flight path with known data on
obstacles, including electric power lines, radio masts and cable cars. If FLARM determines the risk
of dangerous proximity to one or more aircraft or obstacles, the unit gives the pilot warning of the
greatest danger at that moment. The warning is given by a whistle sound (beep) and bright light
emitting diodes (LED). The display also gives indication of the threat level, plus the horizontal
and vertical bearing to the threat. The GPS and collision information received from other aircraft
can also be made available for other equipment like the FLYMAP via a serial data output interface.
For more information, refer to the Operating Manual of the FLARM Collision Warning Unit, latest
revision.
The electrical circuit of the FLARM system is protected by a circuit breaker labelled “FLARM”. The
GPS signals are received by an antenna which is mounted on a bracket attached to the RH side
support plate of the Instrument panel behind the FLYMAP display. The radio antenna for the
transmission of the FLARM signals to other aircrafts equipped with FLARM is attached to the
backside of the Instrument panel between the circuit breakers and the engine instruments and is
protected by a rubber sleeve. The FLARM unit itself is mounted underneath the base plate of the
Instrument Panel in the left section. The LED display unit of the FLARM system is located in the
left section of the Instrument Panel.
For additional maintenance information on the FLARM unit, refer to the FLARM Installation
Manual, latest revision.
For the installation of software or database updates, refer to the documentation and manuals of
the manufacturer of the FLARM Collision Warning System.
