  • Abstract
    This paper reviews some of the earlier developments of civil avionic equipment design specifications, and describes how the U.S. Flag Air Carriers now arrive at procurement specifications, and how they determine their current operational needs. The responsibilities and activities of ATA, ARINC, AEEC, and RTCA are described and related to the development and coordination of such specifications.
