14 CFR Ch. I (1–1–24 Edition) 

§ 25.1307 

continuous operation nor designed to 
prevent hazard if it failed. 

(5) An indicator to indicate the func-

tioning of the powerplant ice protec-
tion system for each engine. 

(6) An indicator for the fuel strainer 

or filter required by § 25.997 to indicate 
the occurrence of contamination of the 
strainer or filter before it reaches the 
capacity established in accordance 
with § 25.997(d). 

(7) A warning means for the oil 

strainer or filter required by § 25.1019, if 
it has no bypass, to warn the pilot of 
the occurrence of contamination of the 
strainer or filter screen before it 
reaches the capacity established in ac-
cordance with § 25.1019(a)(2). 

(8) An indicator to indicate the prop-

er functioning of any heater used to 
prevent ice clogging of fuel system 
components. 

(d) 

For turbojet engine powered air-

planes.  In addition to the powerplant 
instruments required by paragraphs (a) 
and (c) of this section, the following 
powerplant instruments are required: 

(1) An indicator to indicate thrust, or 

a parameter that is directly related to 
thrust, to the pilot. The indication 
must be based on the direct measure-
ment of thrust or of parameters that 
are directly related to thrust. The indi-
cator must indicate a change in thrust 
resulting from any engine malfunction, 
damage, or deterioration. 

(2) A position indicating means to in-

dicate to the flightcrew when the 
thrust reversing device— 

(i) Is not in the selected position, and 
(ii) Is in the reverse thrust position, 

for each engine using a thrust revers-
ing device. 

(3) An indicator to indicate rotor sys-

tem unbalance. 

(e) 

For turbopropeller-powered air-

planes.  In addition to the powerplant 
instruments required by paragraphs (a) 
and (c) of this section, the following 
powerplant instruments are required: 

(1) A torque indicator for each en-

gine. 

(2) Position indicating means to indi-

cate to the flight crew when the pro-
peller blade angle is below the flight 
low pitch position, for each propeller. 

(f) For airplanes equipped with fluid 

systems (other than fuel) for thrust or 
power augmentation, an approved 

means must be provided to indicate the 
proper functioning of that system to 
the flight crew.

§ 25.1307

Miscellaneous equipment. 

The following is required miscella-

neous equipment: 

(a) [Reserved] 
(b) Two or more independent sources 

of electrical energy. 

(c) Electrical protective devices, as 

prescribed in this part. 

(d) Two systems for two-way radio 

communications, with controls for 
each accessible from each pilot station, 
designed and installed so that failure of 
one system will not preclude operation 
of the other system. The use of a com-
mon antenna system is acceptable if 
adequate reliability is shown. 

(e) Two systems for radio navigation, 

with controls for each accessible from 
each pilot station, designed and in-
stalled so that failure of one system 
will not preclude operation of the other 
system. The use of a common antenna 
system is acceptable if adequate reli-
ability is shown.

§ 25.1309

Equipment, systems, and in-

stallations. 

(a) The equipment, systems, and in-

stallations whose functioning is re-
quired by this subchapter, must be de-
signed to ensure that they perform 
their intended functions under any 
foreseeable operating condition. 

(b) The airplane systems and associ-

ated components, considered sepa-
rately and in relation to other systems, 
must be designed so that— 

(1) The occurrence of any failure con-

dition which would prevent the contin-
ued safe flight and landing of the air-
plane is extremely improbable, and 

(2) The occurrence of any other fail-

ure conditions which would reduce the 
capability of the airplane or the ability
