1、Designation: F2563 06 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Practice forKit Assembly Instructions of Aircraft Intended Primarily forRecreation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2563; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of rev
2、ision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the instructions a kit producer mustprovide to a consumer in order to assemble
3、 and safelyflight-test a recreational aircraft to ensure compliance withapplicable ASTM standards.1.2 The instructions prescribe the necessary mechanicalskills or training, or both, required for successful completion ofthe kit, as well as necessary tooling, fixtures, inspections,measurements, and ot
4、her pertinent items required for success-ful completion of the kit. Proof of compliance with theseinstructions may be vital for obtaining flight authorizationsfrom the applicable CAA.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is there
5、sponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Terminology2.1 Definitions:2.1.1 consumerany person who follows the instructionscovered by this practice to assemble the kit.2.1.

METHODS OF COMMUNICATIONX1.1 Formats:X1.1.1 Electronic documents are acceptable so long as theyare viewable
32、on freely distributed software, such as Acrobatviewer, or other no-cost format, such as HTML, or be viewedwithout purchasing additional software. If electronic data isprovided in a proprietary format, the kit producer shall provideviewing software.X1.2 Illustrations:X1.2.1 Illustrations provided in
33、the KAI should be suffi-ciently large and clear enough so that they accurately depict theoperation to a person with reasonable vision. Black and whitephotocopies of photographs seldom contain sufficient clarityand definition to be useful. If such reproduction methods are tobe used, it is highly sugg
34、ested that technical line drawings beused. Such drawings should be large enough in size so that theyare useful and clear. Photographs are useful if the printingquality is high enough to preserve the clarity of the image.X1.3 It is recommended that kit providers and buildersshare information between
35、and among themselves using E-mailand Web sites. The intent is to enhance the building experienceand improve dissemination of best practices and safety infor-mation within the community.X1.4 It is recommended that documentation provided to theconsumer in English be written as ASD SIMPLIFIED TECH-NICA
36、L ENGLISH. Information on this is available at this Website: http:/www.simplifiedenglish-aecma.org/. Doing so willenhance the clarity of the documents. It will also createdocuments that may be easily translated into other languages.X2. REQUIREMENTS FOR OBTAINING A FLIGHT AUTHORIZATION IN VARIOUS COU
