Case Study: AIR 5428 Phase 1 RAAF Pilot Training System

Nova Systems was engaged by Lockheed Martin to support the delivery of the RAAF’s PilotTraining System.

Nova Systems was requested to lead Military Type Certification of the PC-21 Aircraft, Qualification of PC-21 Simulators, and Test and Evaluation of the Pilot Training System, as well as provide further specialist engineering advice.

Solution

Nova Systems formed a specialist engineering team to support Lockheed Martin and developed a project plan to deliver the work scope on a fixed price basis, in line with the overarching Commonwealth project schedule. The team developed key supporting artefacts including a Type Certification Plan, Qualification Plan and Verification and Validation Plan. To execute these plans, Nova managed key stakeholders in both industry and the Commonwealth, and gathered a large range of compliance evidence to support the award of various relevant airworthiness and contractual instruments.

Outcome

The work delivered by Nova Systems resulted in the PC-21 Aircraft being awarded Military Type Certification, the PC-21 Simulators being qualified to use for training of ab-initio ADF Pilots, and the Pilot Training System achieving contractual Final Acceptance by the Commonwealth. All work was completed on time and on budget.
