The LynxOS-178 RTOS is the first and only COTS operating system to receive acceptance for reusability from the FAA for DO-178B certification

What is a DO-178B RSC?

A DO-178B Reusable Software Component (RSC) is a software collection that is recognized as meeting the requirements of RTCA/DO-178B and that may be used on more than one project without having to regenerate certification artifacts.
