Abstract
The Fly-by-Light Advanced Systems Hardware (FLASH) program developed Fly-by-Light technologies for flight control and vehicle management of military and commercial aircraft. The FLASH program established requirements, performed a trade study, and selected the Dual Rate AS1773 fiber-optic data bus as the baseline interconnection means between equipment designed, built, and demonstrated by FLASH team-mates. This paper cites the lessons learned in using the AS1773 data bus. This includes the individual problems that users experienced and the overall problems of working with immature data bus components.
