The Royal Netherlands Air Force procured 13 CH-47D Chinook Helicopters in June 1993. The helicopters are equipped with powerful (FADEC) engines, HUMS and a state of the art Avionics Control and Management System (ACMS). At the time of procurement the ACMS was not fully developed. Therefore, the RNLAF was involved in both the final Stage of the ACMS development to optimize to the Dutch specific requirements and the certification of the ACMS. A combined RNLAF/NLR team was stationed at Boeing Defense and Space Group to fulfill the complex and sometimes conflicting tasks of development and qualification tests that should lead to the type certificate of the RNLAF CH-47D Chinook. The purpose of this paper is to give an impression of the RNLAF approach to certification of the Avionics Control and Management System and about the experiences during the final development and certification of the RNLAF CH-47D ACMS.
