5 Pre Modification Planning
This section contains requirements that must be considered before installing the EFD1000. This
section will guide you through the requirements to ensure FAR compliance; including required
equipment, required secondary equipment, secondary equipment relocation and placement, and
optional equipment.
5.1 Pre Modification Checklist
Complete Table 5.1 to insure that the aircraft to be modified is a candidate for installation of
the EFD1000 system using this AML-STC. It is required to have a PASS or NA for all rows in
order to use this AML-STC as the certification basis for the EFD1000 installation. NA means
Not Applicable because no interface will be made to that device. Only items 6, 7, 10, 11, 12
& 13 below may use NA in the PASS box.
ITEM CRITERIA PASS
1 Is the aircraft to be modified on the Approved Model List (AML)?
2 Does aircraft have sufficient electrical capacity to supply all required
equipment given the current draw in Table 7.1?
3 Is there an acceptable location to mount or relocate the required standby
instruments in the pilot’s field of view? (see Figure 5.2)
4 Do the standby instruments meet the requirements of Figure 5.1?
5 Is there acceptable clearance between the control column (yoke or stick)
and the PFD when the stick or yoke is full forward and moved left to
right?
6 If removing an EFIS system - does the EFD1000 replace all required
instrumentation previously displayed on the removed EFIS? -
NA if no EFIS
7 Is a backup navigation indicator required (see section 5.2.4) -

8 Is there an acceptable location to mount the RSM? (see Section 6.9)
9 Is there a location to mount a PFD and ACU (if installed) circuit breaker
that will be accessible to the pilot while seated?
10 Is there a location to mount an EFIS MASTER switch that is accessible to
the pilot while seated? –
NA if not installed.
11 Does the aircraft have a compatible GPS receiver or will one be installed?
(see Electrical Interface Section 8 to determine compatibility) -
NA if no
GPS interface.
12 Does the aircraft have a compatible Navigation receiver or will one be
installed? (see Electrical Interface Section 8 to determine compatibility) -
