To allow easier comparisons between competing types, the aircraft are now listed in ascending order of seating capacity. The data has been collated from a number of sources, principally the various manufacturers' brochures, and while much care has been taken over their preparation they are intended only as a guide to each type's main characteristics. Accommodation This section gives typical passenger numbers in commuter-type layout. The aircraft vary widely in cross-section, and the seat pitch and the number abreast give only a rough indication of comfort standards- Actual interior configurations in commuter service can also vary widely, but in general only the larger types of about 18 seats and above offer a toilet or galley as standard, and fitting these luxuries may involve the removal of one or more seats in some of the smaller types. Powerplant data comprises the number and power of the engines, the manufacturer's designa tion and the type of power source. Overall dimensions and landing gear dimensions are given in Imperial units, followed by the metric equivalents in brackets. LCN (Load Classification Number), where given, is for a rigid runway pavement with a radius of relative stiff ness of 2-5ft (76cm). Weights and fuel capacity. The weights shown are the maximum permitted for ramp departure, take-off, landing, and with zero fuel. Operating weight empty is a typical value for a passenger commuter configuration including crew and normal operators' items, except in the case of some of the smaller general-aviation types where equipped empty weight (EEW) is given. Fuel figures, in Imperial gallons and litres, are for standard internal fuel and for optional extra capacity where this is available. 54 FLIGHT International, 11 May 1985
