Abstract:This addendum to Volpe Letter Report V324-FB48B3-LR2 provides guidance for applicants submitting data and information for validation of noise measurement, recording, and analysis instrumentation systems. Such validation is required by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Order 8110.4C: “Type Certification Process” (most recently revised as “Change 5”, 20 December, 2011) to ensure conformance with the associated requirements and specifications of Federal Regulation Title 14 part 36 (Part 36). It should be noted that validation of particular instrumentation for one applicant does not universally apply – each applicant must submit to validation of their instrumentation system, including evaluation of formalized documentation (such as an individualized operator manual or procedures report) for setup and operation of the instrumentation by the applicant. This may sometimes result in separate validation efforts and reporting for individual instrumentation components (such as recorders or analyzers) and complete systems, as well as for applicant procedures related to those components and/or systems. Once the validation process is completed, Volpe will generate a validation report to be submitted to AEE, who will then make an approval determination. It should be noted that Volpe has no authority to approve applicants’ use of instrumentation systems for aircraft noise certification.
