SIL FMC-XX00-18-1 addresses the process to update respective AFMs.SIL CSU-XX00-18-1 addresses the process to deactivate the FMS Temp Comp function.These documents are currently available through the Collins Technical Publications website located here. Two Service Information Letters and an OPSB were previously released to provide information addressing these actions. To prevent the issue, operators must refrain from manually editing вЂњClimb ToвЂќ altitude on both departures and missed approaches. However, operators will need to continue to perform the FMS Temp Comp calculations manually, when necessary.

Moving forward, all previously re-instated procedures related to the Temp Comp issue will remain in place and operators will not be required to upgrade their FMS software. Since our initial notification regarding the Temp Comp issue, we have continued to work closely with the FAA exploring ways to retain the approximately 10,000 affected navigation procedures while minimizing the impact to operations and keeping you safe. Collins Aerospace is drafting its own comments and will post prior to the deadline. The NPRM is available here and will be open for public comment until Jan. The proposed rule and the public comments received on it form the basis of the final rule. All proposed rules must be published in the Federal Register to notify the public and to give them an opportunity to submit comments.

The NPRM is the official document that announces and explains the FAAвЂ™s plan to address a problem or accomplish a goal. Collins Aerospace (Rockwell Collins) issued an Operators Service Bulletin (OPSB) 0166-17R5 about this FMS issue on July 25, 2018. 6, 2018, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) posted an Airworthiness Directive (AD) notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for Pro Line 4 and 21-equipped operators equipped with FMS 3.3X through 4.X to address an issue that can occur when a вЂњClimb ToвЂќ altitude has been edited either manually or by using the Temperature Compensation (Temp Comp) feature. To our valued pilots and directors of flight operations,
