Page 192 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL WEIGHT & BALANCE DHC - 7 GENERAL WEIGHT AND BALANCE DATA 7.1. WEIGHT AND BALANCE LIMITATIONS In the interests of airworthiness it is essential that the weight and balance limits for the airplane be observed in accordance with recommendations and information given in the following paragraphs, tables and diagrams.
Page 193 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL WEIGHT & BALANCE DHC - 7 7.2. WEIGHT DEFINITIONS 7.2.1 BASIC WEIGHT. The Basic Weight of the airplane is that weight which includes all fixed operating equipment, both standard and optional, for the mission or role envisaged, trapped and unusable fuel, and full oil.
Page 194 Flight Manual, PSM 1-7 lA- lA). 7.2.8 HORIZONTAL ARM AND REFERENCE DATUM. The term Horizontal Arm for the DHC-7 is synonymous with airplane station. The Reference Datum (=Horizontal Arm 0 = Airplane Station 0), is located 248. 0 inches forward of fuselage jig point Station 248. 0 in. The jig point (datum point) is marked by a plate attached to the underside of the fuselage on the airplane centerline.
Page 195 The leveling and measuring diagrams may be used to determine the Horizontal Arm of any equipment or change not listed in the Equipment Check List. When de Havilland modifications are incorporated, the weight and balance change will be found on the appropriate Modification Bulletin.
Page 196 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL WEIGHT & BALANCE DHC - 7 7.4. PREPARATION FOR FLIGHT The airplane Gross Weight and C. G. should be computed for the beginning and the end of each stage of the flight operation using the current Basic Weight and C. G. data from the Basic Weight Change Record and from the loading tables.
Page 197 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL WEIGHT & BALANCE DHC - 7 moment/l 000 must fall within the limitations shown in the Center of Gravity - Limiting Moments Table . The Weight and C. G. at landing should also be checked by subtracting the weight and rnoment/1000 of fuel (and water/methanol, if applicable) used, from the weight and moment/l000 at take-off.

Page 205 DHC - 7 AIRCRAFT GENERAL GENERAL The Dash 7 was manufactured by Boeing Canada, de Havilland division. It is a predominantly metal, pressurized, high-wing monoplane, powered by four Pratt and Whitney of Canada PT6A-50 turboprop engines driving Hamilton Standard four-blade, constant-speed, variable and reversible pitch propellers.
Page 206 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 Doors On the cargo version of the Dash 7, the main passenger/crew entrance airstair door is located on the fuselage left side at the rear of the passenger compartment. A large cargo door is located on the left-forward side of the fuselage immediately aft of the cockpit.
Page 207 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 AIRPLANE SYSTEMS ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS Primary electrical power is 28 VDC. It is produced by four engine-driven starter- generators. Two 24-volt, 40-ampere-hour nicad batteries are standard equipment. External power receptacles are provided for DC power and AC variable-frequency power from a ground source.
Page 208 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 FUEL SYSTEM The fuel system includes the fuel indicating, fuel storage, tank venting, fuel feed and scavenge, refueling/defueling, and transfer systems. The Dash 7 fuel system is divided into four independent feed systems. Fuel is supplied from four integral tanks (two in each wing) to the four engines by an ejector (jet) pump in each tank.
Page 209 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 PNEUMATICS Engine bleed air is used for air conditioning, pressurization, and pneumatic deicing. Each engine has a low- and high-pressure bleed-air source, selection of either being made with a switch for each engine. Operation is automatic in the high-pressure mode; pressure and temperature sensors govern the pressure modulation to compensate for low power settings and high altitude.
Page 210 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 LANDING GEAR AND BRAKES The tricycle landing gear is a conventional retractable dual-wheel installation with the main gears retracting forward into the inboard nacelles and a nose gear retracting aft into the nose fuselage section.
Page 211 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 Two hydraulically actuated ground spoilers on each wing automatically extend at touchdown to reduce wing lift. In addition, the roll spoilers deploy symmetrically to augment the ground spoilers. All spoilers can be retracted for taxiing. Left and right independent stall warning systems warn of an impending stall by shaking the control columns.

PITOT-STATIC SYSTEM Three pitot tubes and four static vents provide dynamic and ambient air pressures to the pilot’s and copilot’s pneumatic flight instruments, the overspeed warning switch, the air...
Page 339 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 AIR DATA SYSTEM The air data system processes inputs of pitotstatic pressures and total air temperature to produce electrical signal outputs proportional to: • Barometrically corrected altitude • Pressure altitude • Encoded altitude •...
Page 340 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 ALTITUDE ALERT CONTROLLER The altitude alert controller is used to preselect an altitude from 0 to 60,000 feet for reference by the altitude alert system and for the altitude-preselect function of the flight director. The preselected altitude is compared to an actual altitude from either ADC (as selected by the system coupling switch), and visual and aural (optional) alerts are generated.
Page 341 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 INERTIAL VERTICAL SPEED INDICATOR The inertial vertical speed indicators (IVSI) display vertical speed up to 4,000 feet per minute. Each IVSI is connected to the associated static air system. No other input is required for operation.
Page 342 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 VERTICAL GYRO The two vertical gyros are independent and electrically driven from separate AC buses. This ensures continued operation of one AD! in the event of partial power interruption or failure. Note the specific systems which receive information from the gyros. The vertical gyros have a pitch limitation of ±...
Page 343 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 TURN-AND-SLIP INDICATOR A turn-and-slip indicator is mounted in each pilot’s instrument panel. The left and right units are powered from the left and right essential DC buses, respectively. A red failure flag comes into view when power falls below a minimum-required preset level. The in- dicators are marked for standard two-minute turns and have a built-in inclinometer.
Page 344 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM GENERAL The heading reference system provides information to the HSIs, RMIs, flight director com- puters, and autopilot computer.

Page 349 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 AP ENGAGE Switch An alternate-action AP ENGAGE switch allows manual engagement or disengagement of the autopilot system. An engage interlock ensures that the yaw damper engages automatically with autopilot engagement. YD ENGAGE Switch An alternate-action YD ENGAGE switch allows operation of the yaw damper with the autopilot engaged or disengaged.
Page 350 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 Autopilot Engagement and Disengagement Activation of the AP ENGAGE switch engages the autopilot and yaw damper functions simultaneously. A repeated activation of the switch disengages the autopilot function. The normal means for disengaging the autopilot is to momentarily press the A/P&Y/D DIS pushbutton to the first stage (autopilot only disconnected).
Page 351 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 interlock ensures that the autopilot cannot be engaged without also engaging the yaw damper. Disengagement of the yaw damper also disengages the autopilot, if engaged. The normal means of disengaging the yaw damper is by actuating the second stage of the two-stage A/P&Y/D DIS switch on either control wheel.
Page 352 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 RADIO ALTIMETER The radio altimeter provides absolute altitude from 2,500 to 0 feet, decision height selection, failure annunciation, and manual test capability. The instrument has an ex- panded linear scale under 500 feet. Included on the bezel is a TEST button. When depressed, the pointer should move to 100 ±20 feet, and the OFF flag appears.
Page 353 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 NAVIGATION RADIO RECEPTION For navigation radio reception, the desired VHF NAV receiver output is selected by pressing in the appropriate on/off/volume push-button switch on the audio control panel (see Communications Systems, this chapter).

Page 355 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS GENERAL The airplane is equipped with an audio integrating system which provides the crew with the means to control the airplane communications systems radios for transmission and reception and to monitor the airplane navigation receivers. In addition, interphone allows intercommunication among the cockpit crew and cabin crew in flight.
Page 356 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 VHF COMMUNICATIONS Description The dual Collins VHF communications system provides AM voice communication in the 118.0 to 135.97 MHz frequency range on two COMM control heads. The audio control panel switches for the two COMMs are labeled “VHF 1” and “VHF 2.” COMM 1 uses the antenna mounted on top of the fuselage;...
Page 357 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 When the airplane is on the ground, interphone communication between the flight crew and the ground crew is accomplished using the ground crew jack in the avionics compartment. Access to the jack box is gained through a hinged access door on the left side of the nose.
Page 358 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 A routine call to the flight crew from the flight attendant is initiated by holding the EMERG— CAPT CALL switch to the CAPT CALL position (the switch is spring-loaded to the center off position) and lifting the handset from the holder. This sounds a chime in the flight crew headphones and speakers and turns on the ATTENDANT light.
Page 359 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 Mode 1—Excessive Sink Rate Penetration of the outer warning envelope results in both PULL UP lights coming on and a repeating aural “sink rate.” These advisories warn that the rate of descent for a given altitude is excessive.
Page 360 AIRCRAFT OPERATING MANUAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION DHC - 7 Mode 5—Descent below Glide Slope When the airplane descends below the ILS glide slope, the amber BELOW GIS switchlights illuminate, and the voice annunciation “glide slope” is repeated at a rate which varies as a function of radio altitude and glide-slope deviation.
