The 747-400 has a redesigned "flexible" cabin interior that allows airlines to rearrange seats and class configuration overnight (in eight hours).At 31,285 cubic feet (876 cubic meters), the 747-400 has the largest passenger interior volume of any commercial airliner, which is equivalent to more than three houses each measuring 1,500 square feet (135 square meters).The award-winning Boeing Signature Interior is available on both the 747-400 and 747-400ER.The 747-400 carries 3,300 gallons (12,490 L) of fuel in the horizontal (tail) stabilizer, allowing it to fly an additional 350 nautical miles.A 747-400 that flies 3,500 statute miles (5,630 km) and carries 126,000 pounds (56,700 kg) of fuel will consume an average of five gallons (19 L) per mile.The 747-400ER can carry more than 63,500 gallons of fuel (240,370 L), making it possible to fly extremely long routes, such as Los Angeles to Melbourne, Australia.The diameter of the 747 engine cowling is 8 feet 6 inches (2.6 m).Engine thrust has grown from 43,500 pounds (19,730 kg) per engine on the early 747s to as much as 63,300 pounds (28,710 kg) on the current model.For a typical international flight, one 747 operator uses about 5.5 tons (5,000 kg) of food supplies and more than 50,000 in-flight service items.The 747-400ER range is approximately 7,713 nautical miles (14,297 km).The 747 fleet has flown 3.5 billion people - the equivalent of more than half of the world's population.The 747 fleet has logged more than 42 billion nautical miles (77.8 billion kilometers), equivalent to 101,500 trips from the Earth to the moon and back.The original 747 flight test program, which led to the airplane's certification for commercial service in December 1969, used five airplanes, lasted 10 months and required more than 1,500 hours of flying.The first 747 completed more than 15,000 hours of wind-tunnel testing.Seventy-five thousand engineering drawings were used to produce the first 747.How much weight does an additional 6-foot (1.8-m) wingtip extension and winglet add to the 747-400 wing? None! A weight savings of approximately 5,000 pounds (2,270 kg) was achieved in the wing by using new aluminum alloys, which offset the weight increase of the wing tip extension and winglet.Four World War I vintage JN4-D "Jenny" airplanes could be lined up on each of the Boeing 747 wings.The 747-400 wing measures 5,600 square feet (524.9 m 2 ), an area large enough to hold 45 medium-sized automobiles.The 747-400 wing weighs 95,000 pounds (43,090 kg), more than 30 times the weight of the first Boeing airplane, the 1916 B&W.The 747-400 tail height is 63 feet 8 inches (19.4 m), equivalent to a six-story building.The 747-400 has 16 main landing gear tires and two nose landing gear tires.A 747-400 has 171 miles (274 km) of wiring and 5 miles (8 km) of tubing.A 747-400 has six million parts, half of which are fasteners.
BOEING 747 FCOM MANUAL MANUALS
I expect that as things mature one will find manuals with the EFB not with OC.Īt least the documents are easy to find as in they have been in the PMDG\ \Flight Manuals location on every product since I started with the FS9 NG. Hi Kevin, I think what is going on here with respect to OC links for manuals is that we are in a period of transition to the OCv2 that has been mentioned by Robert and Kyle in the forum. Surely the OC should have links to all manuals that are available?
Now I see that's where the 748 FCOM and QRH are. I always use the Ops Center links for that. I had no reason to open the folder where all the 744 manuals are. By text search I found one reference in the section about Rain Maker, again nothing to say where it is. There is no mention of the 748 FCOM in the section about systems.
BOEING 747 FCOM MANUAL MANUAL
The Introduction Manual does mention the EFB manual, but I only found where it was from this the forum. It's great that the manuals are provided but it isn't at all clear where the 748 documentation is, or what is available. Sounds like it will provide all the answers I need.
My original question about 748 systems description must have sounded very odd to you as an FCOM was already provided, I just I wasn’t aware of it. I’m sorry Chris, it’s now clear we’ve been talking at cross purposes. I took your reference to it being difficult to have such documentation as being about providing a 748 FCOM. As Marc werote there is an FCOM and QRH inside the document folder.
