Die Annotation des Normtextes ASTM F2564-26 :

This specification covers airworthiness requirements for the design of a powered or non-powered fixed wing light sport aircraft, a “glider.” Stability shall be shown by a tendency for the glider to return toward steady flight after: (1) a “push” from steady flight that results in a speed increase, followed by a non-abrupt release of the pitch control; and (2) a “pull” from steady flight that results in a speed decrease, followed by a non-abrupt release of the pitch control. Strength requirements are specified in terms of limit loads (the maximum loads to be expected in service) and ultimate loads (limit loads multiplied by prescribed factors of safety). The suitability of each structural design detail and part having an important bearing on safety shall be established by test. Each combination of engine, exhaust, cooling and fuel system on a powered glider must be compatible with the glider, and function in a safe and satisfactory manner within the operational limits of the glider and powerplant. Each aircraft shall include Aircraft Operating Instructions (AOI).
