Allowable Installed System Error #1 = 30’
Allowable Installed System Error #2 = 30’
3) Calculate altitude miscompare threshold based upon sum of above
allowable errors:
Altitude Miscompare Threshold = 160’
9.12. Airspeed Miscompare Threshold
Airspeed miscompare threshold is based upon allowable airspeed error.
There are two components to allowable airspeed error, instrument error
and installed system error. Allowable instrument error is based upon the
values of SAE AS8002A Table 3 as follows.
Table 9-3: Airspeed Error
Calibrated Airspeed
Allowed Error
50 knots
5 knots
80 knots
3 knots
100 knots
2 knots
120 knots
2 knots
150 knots
2 knots
200 knots
2 knots
Allowable installed system error is added on top of instrument. Error and
these values are derived from the regulations as follows.
