This document discusses the evolution of flight data recorder data-set formats. It introduces a new standardized XML format according to ARINC 647A-1 that will be used for all Airbus aircraft, replacing the current mix of proprietary formats. This standardized format will simplify data analysis and reduce errors. A phased deployment plan is outlined to transition aircraft delivered starting from the next FDR dataset revision. The new common format provides benefits for end users such as operators, investigators and flight safety teams.

1. Introduction
This presentation is intended for following public:

 Operational Maintenance
 Incident / Accident Investigation
 Flight Safety

The following Operational Tasks, driven by the Authorities’ Requirements, have been identified
using the FDR documentation:
 FDR data full functional check to be performed every 1 to 2 years
 Flight Data Monitoring (FDM)
 Flight Operational Quality Assurance (FOQA)

3. End-users benefits

Main benefits for end-users are:

 No manual adaptation of calibration files  error risk reduction

 Unique data standardised format for all Airbus aircraft types

 Simplification of FDR data analysis

 XML files are readable with a large panel XML-file readers available on the market
