&OMMEIS2JAL AJJlLlNMRS DIRECTORY Notes to tables This directory lists all turbofan-powered transport aircraft with more than 50 seats, which are in, or proposed for, series production. Aircraft entries are arranged by increas ing aircraft capacity in alphabetical order by manufacturer name. Also listed are very large turboprop- powered aircraft which justify inclusion because of their role: eg the Lockheed L- 100 Hercules because of its capacity. Data on certain types, such as the Boeing 727 (given a new lease of life by the re-engineing programmes), McDonnell Douglas DC-10 and DC-8-70 and Lockheed L-1011 TriStar, which, although no longer built, are classics of their kind and may be of interest to poten tial purchasers of used aircraft, are also included. Details of regional and utility aircraft, including 50-seat-class turboprops, will be published in the Regional & Utility Aircraft Directory to be published on 10- 16 May, 1995. The data contained in the tables are as accurate as possible, but certain inconsis tencies remain inevitable among types and manufacturers. Although the tables have been compiled to per mit comparisons, care must be taken in making them, because within each model there can be a multiplicity of subtypes, depending on the specification of the original customer. Most types are avail able with options covering engines, weights, doors, interior furnishing, cock pit fit and fuel capacity. This is particularly important for airlines looking to the used-aircraft market to top up their existing fleets. Will the aircraft they buy have the same specification and perfor mance as the model they already operate? It is also important to companies attempt- The Concorde has been in commercial operation since 1976 ing to assess fair market values of used equipment. When assessing the value of a particular used aircraft, its maintenance and over haul record are important, as well as its modification status. Key to data tables Powerplant Number of engines and nominal sea-level ISA (international standard atmosphere) static power of each (kN or kW equivalent shaft horsepower), manufacturer and type. Earlier models may have offered lower power ratings. Undercarriage Dimensions are in metres. Accommodation Maximum seating capacity is for all- economy or inclusive-tour layout (not necessarily typical of airline use), with maximum number of seats abreast and minimum pitch. Capacity may be constrained by exit requirements. Care must be exercised when interpreting these numbers. Also given are baggage and freight-hold total volume and number of compartments and aircraft operating pressure differential. Weight Maximum permitted weights for taxiing (ramp), take-off, landing and zero fuel; operational weight empty for all-tourist-class layout or freighter aircraft. FAR Field lengths for take-off and landing at gross weight in still air, with a hard dry runway and zero slope, under the conditions of ISA, sea-level; ISA + 20°C, sea-level; ISA, 5,000ft elevation. If climb performance is limited at gross weight under any of these conditions, the maxi mum permitted gross weight is noted. These perfor mance measures in particular are intended only as a guide and must be interpreted with care. They should not be used for operational purposes. Take-off field lengths include the distance required to accelerate the aircraft to flying speed, reject the take-off and stop the aircraft within the runway length remaining. Speeds V2 is the take-off safety speed (as gross weight); VAT the threshold speed (at maximum landing weight); VNO/MNO is the maximum normal operating IAS (indicat ed air speed) and Mach number; Vne/Mne represents the never-exceed IAS and Mach number. Cruise performance Speed, altitude and fuel consump tion are noted under ISA conditions for a maximum- speed cruise, a direct operating cost economical cruise, and a long-range cruise. Payload range This is under ISA and still-air conditions with no reserve fuel allowance. Operational equipped empty weight as stated in the weights column is assumed. The four stated figures are maximum payload (M); range with M; payload with full tanks (F); range with F. Maximum-payload figures are for cost-economical cruise and full-tanks figures for long-range cruise. Conversions Except for altitude, which is quoted in feet (1,000ft = 305m) and speed, which is quoted in knots (nautical miles per hour; lkt = 1.15mph = 1.85km/h), metric measure is used as follows: lkN = 225lb-thrust; lkW = 1.34hp (shp); lm = 3.28ft; lm2 = 10.76ft2; lm3 = 35.3ft3; 1kg = 2.21b; lkm/h = 0.54kt; 1 litre = 0.264 US gal, 0.22 Imp gal; 1km = 0.54nm. Some figures are rounded for ease of reading.
