1 AMM FLIGHT COMPARTMENT FURNISHINGS - GENERAL 1. General In the flight compartment there are two pilots seats and a supernumerary seat, each with its own safety harness. Both pilots seats are adjustable in height and position with retractable arm rests and are fitted either side of the central control console. The flight mechanics seat is positioned behind and to the left of the first pilots seat. Other flight compartment furnishings include, for each pilot: a stowage recess (for maps, charts, check lists etc), a cup holder, an ashtray, a sun visor, and an air circulation fan. The flight compartment is thermally and acoustically insulated and is separated from the main cabin by a bulkhead at station 74. The bulkhead comprises a centre panel with a sliding door behind each pilots seat for entry. The doors are sealed against the ingress of smoke from any fire in the main cabin. Exposed structure and window posts etc. are furnished with composite panels Page 1

12 AMM EMERGENCY LOCATOR TRANSMITTER SYSTEM - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 1. General Refer to Figure 1. The emergency locator transmitter (ELT) system (Type Dorne & Margolin) - comprises the following:- A. a transmitter located in the rear fuselage roof right side between stations 508 and 535. B. an antenna mounted on the upper fuselage at station 520. C. a two-position remote control switch, annotated ON/TEST and AUTO, located on panel 1P at 2nd pilot's position. D. a TRANSMITTER ON light, on panel 1P, which is supplied from the 28V DC left battery busbar via circuit breaker CB67 on panel 1D. E. a circuit board located on the rear of panel 1P and the 2nd pilot's position. NOTE: For aviation use only. Unlicenced operation unlawful. Operation in violation of FCC rules subject to fine or licence revocation. 2. Description Operation of system for test purposes may only take place with permission from and under instructions from the FAA/FCC or other applicable authority. relevant regulations pertaining to operation of the ELT must be adhered to. The system is designed to commence transmission automatically should it be subjected to a crash force of 5 ± 2 g. The system may also be switched on manually either by a remote switch on 1P panel, or by a selecting to ON the AUTO/OFF/ON switch on the transmitter. NOTE: For remote operation via the remote switch on 1P panel the transmitter AUTO/OFF/ON switch must be left in the AUTO position. Indication of ELT transmission is by an amber warning light, adjacent to the ON/TEST/ AUTO switch on 1P panel. The transmitter is powered by its own battery pack. Upon being subjected to a force of 5 ± 2g, an integral inertia switch closes and completes circuitry to enable the system to transmit. In the event of an emergency and if it is thought advisable, the system may be switched on manually by selecting to ON the ON TEST/AUTO remote switch on 1 P panel. The transmitter unit also has an AUTO/OFF/ON switch, adjacent to the antenna connector, which may be used in lieu of the 1 P panel switch. In both cases an amber warning light adjacent to the remote 1 P switch will light, to provide indication of system transmission Page 1

13 SD3-60 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL The remote control switch, on 1 P panel, provides flight deck control of the transmitter. Two positions are available:- ON/TEST - This position switches on the ELT, providing an inherent test capability, as the transmission may be verified on the aircraft VHF System. Refer to , pb1. This position also resets the system after an automatic transmission and is then immediately returned to AUTO. AUTO - This position arms the system in readiness for an automatic transmission. The transmission amber warning light is actuated by a circuit board, Shorts Pt. No. SD detecting voltage changes in the transmitter. When the system is not transmitting, the board is supplied with 9 volts, which will fall to 0.5 volts on transmission. This voltage difference is 'sensed' by the circuit board when the decreasing voltage falls to approximately 5 volts. At this point the amber warning light will become lit. 3. Operation A. Remote operation The transmitter may be operated by selecting the ELT switch on 1P panel to ON/TEST, and switched off again by selecting AUTO. NOTE: Should the transmitter have operated automatically, with the remote switch at AUTO, it may be reset by selecting ON/TEST then immediately reselecting AUTO. B. Automatic operation With the 1P panel ELT switch at AUTO the system will operate automatically if subjecterd to a force of 5 ± 2 g. Simultaneous transmission will occur on MH and 243 MH. After automatic operation the system may be reset as detailed in the NOTE above. C. Manual operation at the transmitter The transmitter may be switched on with the AUTO/OFF/ON switch adjacent to its antenna connector. NOTE: The system is powered by its own battery pack with the ELT warning light (amber) on 1P panel powered via circuit breaker CB67 on 1D panel Page 2

21 AMM FLOTATION CUSHIONS - PASSENGER SEATS MAINTENANCE PRACTICES 1. Adustment/Test A. Perform buoyancy check. NOTE: The following check is demanded by FAR TSO C72b. The required buoyancy is to be not less than 14 lb. in fresh water at 85 F. For ease of accomplishment most closely related to required conditions, it is recommended that the check be performed in a heated swimming pool. The check may be performed as detailed in (1) or (2). (1) Preferred method: (a) For a period of not less than 8 hours, submerge the cushion (complete with cover and straps) so that no part is less than 24 in. below the surface. (b) Free the cushion and check by means of a spring balance or weighted net that the buoyancy is not less than 14 lb. (2) Alternative method: (a) For a period of not less than 30 minutes, submerge the cushion (complete with cover and straps) so that no part is less than 24 in. below the surface. (b) Free the cushion and measure buoyancy. (c) Repeat (a) and (b) to complete four consecutive buoyancy checks, ensuring that buoyancy stabilises at not less than 14 lb Page 201
