High Robustness Containment Failure Analysis

In plain language

High robustness containment requires rigorous engineering analysis to prove that a fly-away is extremely unlikely and cannot be caused by any single system failure.

Requirement as structured

TCCA guidance states that high robustness containment requires demonstrating via FMEA and SSA that no single failure can cause a fly-away and any combination of failures leading to a fly-away is remote.

Original regulatory text

High robustness containment requirements are that no single failure can cause a flyaway and that any combination of failures that lead to a fly away is remote. Complying with high robustness containment would require an FMEA and SSA to analyze the RPAS and determine which failures could lead to a breach of containment.
