Scope
Content
This AIR is limited to the requirements of AS50881 and examines these requirements, providing rationale behind them. AS50881 is only applicable to the aircraft EWIS. Pods and other devices that can be attached to an aircraft are considered as part of the aircraft equipment design. Its scope does not include wiring inside of airborne electronic equipment but does apply to wiring externally attached to such equipment. The AS50881 scope does not include attached devices but does include the interface between the pod/equipment and aircraft wiring. Section 3.3.5 addresses components such as antennas and other similar equipment that were once supplied as Government Furnished Aeronautical/Aerospace Equipment (GFAE).
Rationale
Content
The purpose of the update is to synchronize AIR6088 to the latest revision of AS50881, and to provide historical rationale for requirement revisions in the latest revision of AS50881. This update included over 45 paragraphs that changed from the previous revision. Each required a corresponding rationale paragraph to be updated as well. The corresponding rationale paragraph is the purpose of the AIR6088.
