The 50th Percentile FAA Crash Test Dummy is a professional, anthropomorphic test device designed for emergency landing and dynamic aircraft seat testing. You can use this dummy to assess aircraft seat restraints and occupant injury under simulated emergency conditions. Developed from standard 50th percentile male anthropometric data, it retains Hybrid III biomechanical response characteristics while adapting the pelvis, thigh, and torso structures to meet FAA 14 CFR requirements.
Application
You can use this dummy for:
(1) Aircraft seat dynamic safety and emergency landing tests.
(2) Evaluation of seat restraint systems and occupant protection measures.
(3) Research on injury mechanisms under rapid deceleration and impact conditions.
(4) High-repetition aerospace crash testing and laboratory research.
(5) Supplemental automotive crash research for seat and restraint system validation.
The dummy supports testing of various aircraft seat models, restraint configurations, and emergency scenarios.
Standards
This dummy complies with multiple international standards, including:
(1) FAA 14 CFR Parts 23 / 25 – Airworthiness Standards for Transport and Normal Category Aircraft
(2) ISO 9790 / ISO/TR 9790 – Road Vehicles: Side Impact Dummy Evaluation Methods
(3) FMVSS 208 – Occupant Crash Protection
(4) FMVSS 213 – Child Restraint Systems (modified for aircraft seats)
(5) ECE R21 – Uniform Regulations for Seat and Restraint Certification
