BS G 260:1996

This standard BS G 260:1996 Environmental tests for aircraft equipment. Steady-state acceleration is classified in these ICS categories:

• 49.020 Aircraft and space vehicles in general

This International Standard specifies two types of steady-state acceleration test and establishes five severity grades of acceleration forces used to simulate a gradually changing acceleration environment representative of that which civil aircraft equipment can encounter in operational use.

The emergency landing case is not within the scope of this International Standard; reference should be made to ISO 7137 for this case.
