The application of electrical flight control systems to civil transport aircraft has directed attention to the need for improved airworthiness regulation. In this paper, the scope and interpretation of a new FAR/JAR Part 25 regulation in preparation is discussed, applicable to aircraft that have closed-loop control systems for flight control, load alleviation or stability augmentation, and have the potential to interact with the aircraft's structural dynamics.
