WL - water line
DIMENSIONS
General
Dimensions give locations on the fuselage. The scale for each dimension is
inches. Use these dimensions to find components on the fuselage:
The body buttock line (BL) is a lateral dimension. Measure the buttock line
to the left (LBL) or right (RBL) of the airplane center line.
The water line (WL) is a height dimension. Measure the water line from a
horizontal reference plane below the airplane. Water line 208.1 is the top
of the cabin floor.
The wing has two reference dimensions. These reference dimensions give
wing locations in inches. Measure each location from buttock line 0. These
are the wing reference dimensions:
• Wing station
• Wing buttock line.
Measure the wing station perpendicular to the wing chord plane.
Measure each location from buttock line 0. These are the horizontal stabi-
lizer reference dimensions:
• Stabilizer station
• Stabilizer leading edge station
• Elevator station.
Measure stabilizer stations perpendicular to the horizontal stabilizer rear
spar.
The -8 and -7 airplanes have the rounded aft pressure bulkhead. The -9 air-
planes have the flat aft pressure bulkhead. The flat bulkhead gives more
interior space in the fuselage.
WINGS - WINGLET
General
The upper and lower blades of the winglets are carbon fiber monoque
construction.
The leading edge torque box for the two blades is a 3 spar laminate.
The trailing edge panels are composite with a honeycomb interior for
strength.
The trailing edge panels are mechanically connected to the leading edge
torque box. The trailing edge panels have an attachment for static dis-
charger mounting bases and a trailing edge tip lightning strike diverter.
The tip cap for the upper blade is aluminum. The tip cap for the lower
blade is a LED marker light.
The forward position light is in the leading edge of the upper blade.
NACELLES-PYLONS
General
The nacelle is the fairings and the components that surround the engine.
The nacelle gives an aerodynamically smooth surface to the strut and
engine. The nacelle also contains these items:
• Inlet cowl
• Fan cowl
• Fan duct cowl and thrust reverser
• Primary exhaust nozzle
• Exhaust plug.
The pylon is the strut that attaches the engine to the wing. The strut con-
tains these items:
• Fuel lines
• Electrical harnesses
• Hydraulic lines
• Pneumatic ducts
• Fairings
• Fire overheat detector/extinguish lines.
Nacelle stations and waterlines give locations on the nacelle-pylon.
The water line is a height dimension. You measure the water line from a
horizontal reference plane below the nacelle-pylon.
POWER PLANT
INTRODUCTION
General
Two CFMI LEAP-1B engines supply thrust for the airplane. The engines also
supply power for these systems:
• Electric
• Hydraulic
• Pneumatic.
The LEAP-1B is a high bypass ratio, dual rotor, turbo fan engine. The
engine uses the latest technology to bring increased fuel economy, high
reliability and low noise operation.
Engine inlet suction can pull personnel and large objects into the engine.
At idle power, the inlet hazard area is a 10.6 ft (3.2 m) radius around the
inlet and extends 4 ft (1.2 m) behind the inlet.
Exhaust Heat
The engine exhaust is very hot for a long distance behind the engine. This
can cause damage to personnel and equipment.
Exhaust Velocity
Exhaust velocity is very high for a long distance behind the engine. This
can cause damage to personnel and equipment.
General Hydraulic actuators or electric motors move the surfaces. You must be very
careful when you are near flight control surfaces. When hydraulic power is

IFIM
INTRODUCTION
General
You use the Interactive Fault Isolation Manual (IFIM) to isolate and correct
airplane faults.
To isolate a fault, you look for the fault with the Search Tab with the name
of the system or component. You can use the Fault Code if available. You
can also use the Maintenance Message from the Onboard Maintenance
Function (OMF).
There is also an Equipment Tab you can use to sort lists by Equipment
Number, Part Name, or IFIM Task. There is a Filter window you can use to
enter the data you use to sort the lists.
For example, enter 46-13 in the Filter window to limit the number of items
in the IFIM Task list to only those items with 46-13 in the list, this will allow
you to find tasks with the number 46-13 much faster.
INTRODUCTION
General
The Interactive Fault Isolation Manual (IFIM) is a tool to help you quickly
isolate the cause of each airplane fault.
You can enter the following information to search for IFIM tasks:
• Status Messages
• Observed Faults
• Cabin Faults
• Fault Codes
• Maintenance Messages
SEARCH FILTER
