3. G280 operation with the Rockwell Collins HGS-6250 Head-up Guidance System
(HGS) and Enhanced Vision System (EVS)
In December 2013 and January 2014 an OSD evaluation of the Rockwell Collins HGS-6250 Head-
up Guidance System (HGS) and Enhanced Vision System (EVS) installed in the Gulfstream G280
was conducted. The initial stage of the evaluation was performed at the Flight Safety International
(FSI) facility at Dallas, Fort Worth undertaking the prerequisite theoretical and synthetic flight
training for Head-up Display (HUD) and EVS operations. Subsequently, flight manoeuvres were
evaluated on a HUD/EVS equipped G280 aircraft at the Gulfstream Flight Test Facility in
Savannah, USA. These manoeuvres included departures, general handling, stall recognition and
recovery, unusual attitude recovery, engine failure and one engine inoperative procedures and
visual and instrument approaches and landings including instrument approaches to less than
standard (LTS) Category 1 minima. Approach procedures were flown at a number of different
airports in the USA and in varying weather conditions during day and night.
4. G280 modifications: Update Avionics System to PlaneView280 Block 3.6 (also
referred to as V3.6), installation of Synthetic Vision System (SVS), and activation of Link
2000+ / Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) / FANS 1/A.
In August 2014 a Rockwell Collins PlaneView280 avionics update to software version 3.6 and
corresponding modification were evaluated, as well as the installation of an optional synthetic
vision system (SVS) and the activation of Link 2000+ controller to pilot data link communication
(CPDLC). The evaluation was conducted at the Gulfstream Flight Test Facility in Savannah, USA
and comprised a series of briefings and discussions with Gulfstream subject matter experts, two
flights (5 hours and 4 sectors) in development aircraft SN2003, N280GT plus a session in the
G280 Integration Test Facility (ITF).

2. Aircraft Specifics
2.1 G280 HUD / EVS installation
The G280 may be equipped with an optional Head-Up Guidance System, which is an electronic
and optical Head-up Display System installed on the pilot side only that generates and displays
information in the pilot forward field of view. The displayed information is derived from the aircraft
instruments sensory data. The HUD is intended for use in all phases of flight with primary
emphasis as an aid for enhanced safety during take-off, approach and landing. The HUD provides
CAT II ILS Excessive Deviation annunciations corresponding to the head down display indications.
The Enhanced Vision System (EVS) comprises a Kollsman Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR)
camera, processor assembly and EVS window. The camera and window are installed on top of the
nose of the G280. The EVS video signal output can be displayed on the HUD and head down on
any of the adaptive display units. With the FLIR camera image displayed on the HUD, the installed
system comprises the features and characteristics of an Enhanced Flight Vision system (EFVS).
[AMC] Dependent upon environmental conditions, the HUD / EVS system was found operationally
suitable for providing situational awareness during ground and flight operations and for conducting
Lower Than Standard (LTS) CAT I operations.
2.2 G280 modifications: Update Avionics System to PlaneView280 Block 3.6 (also
referred to as V3.6), installation of Synthetic Vision System (SVS), and activation of Link
2000+ / Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) / FANS 1/A.
Initially there will be a mix of G280 aircraft as only the newly delivered aircraft will be equipped with
the updated package, while the G280 already in service will be retrofitted in due time. Some
operators will operate a mixed fleet. This will be a temporary situation, as, ultimately, all G280
aircraft will be upgraded to the new software version.
Transitional arrangements for flight crew qualifications are included in this document.
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 10 of 30
2.3 Customization of Procedures and Checklists
[AMC] 2.3.1 EASA evaluated standard Gulfstream procedures and checklists. Any customization
should be evaluated by the Competent Authority.
[M] 2.3.2 The manufacturer has developed procedures to be followed in case of abnormal and
emergency situations. It is the manufacturer’s philosophy to not identify any steps in these
procedures as so-called “Memory Items”. Yet pilots are expected to perform some of those initial
and critical steps without reference to any documentation. Emergency procedures are an essential
part of the training curriculum and pilots should be provided adequate guidance at the earliest
possible time during their training.
Operators must establish which steps of these procedures should be initially performed
immediately and without reference to a checklist.
Operators and training providers must ensure that pilots are trained in accordance with this or
other acceptable defined procedures which satisfies these provisions for time-critical emergencies.
[AMC] 2.3.3 Standard Noise Abatement procedures should be included in SOPs, as these are
common at many European airports.
Note: Standard Noise Abatement procedures are published as a standalone supplement G280-
OMS-02 Rev 0 Noise Abatement Departure Procedures available on MyGulfstream.com.
2.4 Aircraft Approach Category [M]
With reference to Part-CAT, CAT.OP.MPA.320(b) the minimum straight-in approach category for
the G280 is as follows:
Aircraft Category
G280 C
2.5 Forward Observer Seat
The G280 forward observer seat is option to the type certificated design available during the
completion phase of the aeroplane. It was evaluated and found operationally suitable.
2.6 Standby Multifunction Controller (SMC)
The Standby Multifunction Controller (SMC) comprises a Display Select Panel (DSP) and Display
Control Panel (DCP). When not being used for flight or system management purposes, the DCP
displays the Integrated Standby Instrument (ISI). The ISI provides flight and navigation information
to the pilot.
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 11 of 30
Two SMCs are located on the glare shield, one in front of each pilot. The SMC combines the ISI
and a menu control system for other system displays and selections. The crew may manually
select the ISI for display on either SMC.
In addition, the following conditions will result in the automatic display of the ISI, without additional
crew action:
Loss or Reversion of a PFD
Electrical Break Power Transfer (in-flight only)
PFD to MFD conversion after loss of one or two DU's
Cross-side SMC failure
Attitude Miscompare (PFD-to-PFD or PFD-to-ISI or ISI-to-ISI)
Altitude Miscompare (PFD-to-PFD or PFD-to-ISI or ISI- to-ISI)
Heading Miscompare (PFD-to-PFD or PFD-to-ISI)
Airspeed Miscompare (PFD-to-PFD or PFD-to-ISI)
Unusual Pitch Attitudes and Bank Angles
[AMC] The EASA AFM does not address manual selection of the ISI during any phases of flight.
However, operators should consider any conditions or operational procedures for the flight crew to
have one ISI displayed during the takeoff and approach/landing phases of flight when determining
their own operational procedures.
2.7 Part-CAT, Subpart D – Instruments, Data, Equipment [AMC]
EU operators must show compliance with applicable elements of Annex IV to EU Regulation
956/2012 (Part-CAT, Subpart D), prior to beginning commercial transport operations.
A compliance evaluation Part-CAT, Subpart D was performed on a production aircraft at the
Gulfstream Completion Center at Dallas-Love Field. This particular airplane was found to be
compliant with the applicable requirements. Production aircraft are often outfitted by specialist
companies and Competent Authorities should ensure that individual aircraft are compliant with
requirements.

5. Specifications for Pilot Training
5.1 G280 Initial Type Rating Training
5.1.1 Prerequisites
These provisions apply for pilots who meet the minimum prerequisites in accordance with Part-FCL
FCL.720.A.
[AMC] Prior experience in multi-engine transport turbojet aircraft and prior knowledge on EFIS,
FMS operation, TCAS, TAWS and integrated avionics is recommended for initial training on the
G280.
[AMC] 5.1.2 Theoretical Knowledge
The theoretical knowledge curriculum should be the same for pilot-in-command or co-pilot training,
and regardless of whether the practical training is performed in an FFS or the aircraft.
Theoretical knowledge training and checking must provide for adequate knowledge and
understanding of the aircraft systems and, in addition, should ensure satisfactory knowledge and
understanding of outfitted systems common to other aircraft of equivalent complexity and
performance. It must not be assumed that pilots undertaking G280 type rating training have a
working knowledge and understanding of systems such as FMS, EFIS selection and displays,
Automated Flight Guidance and Control Systems, TAWS, TCAS, etc.
When agreed by the Competent Authority, pilots with relevant knowledge and/or previous
experience may receive credits towards a reduction of the ground school curriculum. Those pilots
should receive a “core” curriculum, consisting of a minimum of 58 hrs. classroom instruction,
enhanced by an additional 10 hrs. System Integration Training in an approved training device.
Pilots with limited or no experience with any or all of the systems mentioned above, should receive
additional modular training, as appropriate, before entering the G280 Ground School training
phase.
For training efficiency, the following should be available:
a consolidated Pilot Training Handbook to contain all relevant documentation required for
training and self-study; and
part-task and desk top trainers to support the classroom lessons by hands-on practice.
The instruction of complex systems should focus on the essential details required for the safe
operation of the aircraft.
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 13 of 30
5.1.3 Flight Training in Aircraft
5.1.3.1 General
[AMC] For type rating training and checking, full use of an approved FFS is considered the
standard. Flight training in aircraft is considered an exception and should only be approved in
unforeseen situations where an approved FFS is not available, as defined with the Competent
Authority.
5.1.3.2 Prerequisites
Flight training in aircraft has its limitations with respect to the level and to the extent to which more
complex emergency/abnormal situations can be practised and checked.
[AMC] Flight training in aircraft should be limited to trainees with previous experience on an
equivalent type or category of aircraft.
[M] Flight training in aircraft must be by followed by specific emergency procedure training in an
FFS during recurrent training within one year.
5.1.3.3 G280 Type Rating training (flight training in aircraft)
[AMC] Flight training in aircraft should consist of a minimum of 6 training flights of 2 hrs. each,
followed by a type rating skill test in accordance with Part-FCL Appendix 9.
5.1.4 Flight Training in FFS
5.1.4.1 General
Use of an approved FFS is considered the standard for G280 flight training. Flight Simulator
training offers excellent opportunities to use both skill training, where a number of manoeuvres
may be performed in a less time consuming sequence, as well as LOFT which is based on a
realistic time-line. It also allows a controlled, gradual increase in complexity of scenarios and the
selection of a variety of conditions. It is recommended to use these features to their fullest extend
to optimize training.
5.1.4.2 G280 Type Rating training (flight training in FFS)
[AMC] Flight training in an FFS should consist of a minimum 6 FFS training sessions of 4 hrs each,
operating as a crew, followed by a type rating skill test in accordance with Part-FCL Appendix 9.
This constitutes the minimum “core” syllabus for suitably qualified and experienced pilots. Pilots
without relevant experience should receive additional modular simulator training as appropriate
before starting the core training.
Note: Additional Systems Integration Training for theoretical knowledge training is addressed
above.
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 14 of 30
5.2 Seat-dependent tasks training
[M] The following training items have been identified for seat dependent tasks for the G280
training:
Passenger Oxygen System activation (right seat)
Nose wheel steering through the tiller (left seat)
5.3 Training Areas of Special Emphasis (TASE)
[M] 5.3.1 The following items must receive special emphasis as specified, during initial type rating
ground and flight training in all referenced training:
Noise Abatement Procedures (as applicable)
Training should include the use of Standard Noise Abatement procedures, where these
exist.
Weight and Balance and Performance Planning
Weight & Balance and performance data are widely dispersed within the AFM.
Emphasized instruction is needed to reinforce the location and application of tables,
charts, and graphs, in determining weight and balance and aircraft performance.
Display Select Panel / Display Control Panel / CCD operation and interaction
Many of the menus, displays, and navigation functions are controlled through the
DSP/DCP as well as through the CCD. The various methods of accessing menus,
selecting and configuring displays, inputting and retrieving data, operating various sub-
systems and managing graphical flight planning must be emphasized and practiced
regularly in training, such that crewmembers are thoroughly familiar with their function
and capabilities.
Flap setting verification at takeoff
It is imperative that pilots have detailed knowledge of the specific characteristics of the
G280 Take-Off Warning System. The system warns the pilots of flap settings outside the
approved take-off range (greater than 22º) as power is applied on takeoff. There is no
aural or visual warning if the flaps are set incorrectly at a position less than 22º.
Flight Control Modes, Stall Warning and Stall Protection System
It is important to thoroughly and completely understand the operation of the aircraft in
each of the lateral and vertical flight control modes and, where applicable, thrust control
modes.
Instrument Approaches
The PlaneView280 avionics package (based on Rockwell Collins Proline Fusion)
enables a wide array of instrument approaches to be flown, using both conventional
ground-based and space-based aids to navigation (with or without augmentation).
Approaches may be based on different kinds of lateral and vertical guidance, each with
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 15 of 30
its own characteristics, minimums and displays and selections. For a safe operation,
thorough understanding of each type of approach, its limitations and correct selection of
Flight Modes is essential.
No-flap approach and landing
In a situation where the flaps are failed in the 0° position, the approach and landing
speeds are sufficiently close to other limiting speeds, such as tire limit speeds and
landing gear operating speed, to warrant special emphasis of these limiting factors
during training scenarios for this situation.
Emergency descent procedure
The G280 has a unique capability to automatically start an Emergency Descent profile in
the event of a loss of cabin pressure above 34,000 feet.
Integrated Standby Instrument/Display (ISI)
The ISI display should be trained during normal and non-normal operations, both in
manual selection and following automatic “pop up” display, including in startle scenarios
and various phases of flight.
Thrust Compensation Module (TCM)
Training will include engine failure on takeoff after V1 with the TCM activated. This is to
ensure that pilots experience the amount of manual rudder control necessary to
maintain aircraft directional control, without over controlling, on takeoff.
Auto Brakes
Pilots must be thoroughly familiar with the Auto Brake system functionalities. Both for
take-off (minimum balanced field length) and for landing (minimum required/actual
landing field length), the performance data are based on the proper setting and use of
the airplane’s brake system. It is especially important to emphasize that for landing
distance calculations, full manual braking will give the shortest landing distance, while
the 3 Auto Brake settings generate a fixed deceleration during the landing roll. With Auto
Brakes selected, brake application may vary as other deceleration factors (headwind,
thrust reverse) vary.
Bank Angle
The bank angle of the G280, specifically on take-off rotation and during touchdown has
to be limited to avoid the wingtip making ground contact. This requires special attention
during take-offs and landings in crosswind conditions, as well as during situations of
asymmetric thrust.
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 16 of 30
[AMC] 5.3.2 Operators may add additional elements as required by their operation, and these will
vary. Training organisations should review their training courses when applicable aircraft
modifications occur. Training organisations may add additional elements as required by the
operator.
5.4 G280 HUD Training
[M] 5.4.1 Prerequisites
Pilots undergoing G280 HUD training must be current and qualified on the G280, unless the HUD
training is integrated with, or occurs sequentially preceding an initial skill test in the G280.
5.4.2 HUD Training – General
[M] The HUD training requirements consist of those related to initial and recurrent theoretical and
flight training. It should be noted that HUD training focuses principally upon training events flown in
the left seat by the Pilot-In-Command (PIC) as Pilot Flying (PF). Nevertheless, training of Pilot
Monitoring (PM) duties in the right seat during HUD operations is required where procedural
differences for the (PM) are evident.
[AMC] Second-In-Command HUD familiarization flown in the left seat is recommended.
[M] Initial training consists of a minimum of 3 hours of HUD theoretical training, followed by a
minimum of 3 hours of HUD practical training, in the left seat. Practical training shall be
accomplished using a G280 Level C FFS with a daylight visual display, or a G280 Level D FFS, or
a G280 aircraft, equipped with a Rockwell Collins HGS-6250.
[AMC] The GV-SP (G550/G500), GIV-X (G450/G350), and GVI (G650) HUD have been found to
be functionally equivalent to the G280 Head-Up Display system. A pilot transitioning to the G280
from the GV-SP (G550/G500), the GIV-X (G450/G350) or the GVI (G650), who has satisfactorily
completed HUD initial training in any of those aircraft, may receive credit when entering HUD
training for the G280. The actual amount of credit may vary in accordance with currency and
overall experience with HUD operations, and will be determined by the Approved Training
Organisation. HUD checking requirements as defined for the G280 in this document apply.
Operational Suitability Data – Flight Crew G280
OSD FC G280 – Original Page 17 of 30
5.4.3 HUD initial theoretical training
5.4.3.1 Content of training
[AMC] The initial HUD theoretical training should include the following elements:
a) Classroom instruction covering HGS-6250 description including the conformal nature of the
HUD, use of the HUD Combiner Control Panel, Display Unit (DU) HUD Control Display and
Standby Multi- Function Controller (SMC) HUD Control Displays, variations of HUD displays and
modes, HUD symbology in all areas of the Combiner, including non-conformal symbology and
symbology in non-normal situations, Pilot yoke control of HUD display, normal and abnormal HUD
AFMS procedures, and pilot briefings, callouts, duties during HUD operations.
b) Classroom instruction or Computer Based Training (CBT) on the HUD symbology set and its
inter-relationship with airplane aerodynamics, inertial factors, environmental conditions and
comparison to the Primary Flight Display (PFD) during typical flight profiles. Profiles should include:
(1) Take-off Ground Roll
(2) Initial Climb
(3) Climbing Turn
(4) Level Flight
(5) Approach to stall/stall
(6) Level Turn
(7) Descent
(8) Descending Turn
(9) ILS Intercept
(10) ILS Approach
