Operating Experience
The 737 models now in service have a high dispatch reliability. The 737 flies a large number of short length flights. It can
also fly longer range flights. The airplane use rate is very high.
The 737-600/700/800/900 design improves on the 737/300/400/500 model design. These are the improvements:
Larger payload
Higher service ceiling.
More range
Improved fault isolation
Improved systems design
Flight compartment common display system.

CORROSION PREVENTION
Years of extensive in-service experience lead to an optimum airframe design. This knowledge along with new material
technology gives the operator an airframe that results in:
Minimal corrosion
Longer in service periods
Less maintenance costs.
Fuselage
TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY
The fuselage is a pressurized semimonocoque structure. The primary materials for the fuselage are aluminum alloys.
Pressure bulkheads at the forward and aft ends of the fuselage form a pressure vessel.
Composites
Some airplane structure and parts are made from composite materials. These are some advantages of composite
materials:
High strength
Corrosion resistant
Increased fatigue life
Light weight..

Equipment Centers
ACCESSIBLE LOCATION
Most electronic equipment is in a compartment below the cabin floor aft of the nose wheel well. This compartment is easily
accessible from ground level.
TRANSVERSE RACK
The electronic equipment compartment includes 3 equipment racks. The main equipment rack is a transverse rack across
the aft end of the compartment. Equipment removal and installation is easy due to the rack design. Interconnecting wiring,
mounts, and accessory boxes are accessed through panels in the forward cargo compartment.

Glareshield Panel
The glareshield panel is the P7 panel. The P7 panel contains these panels:
Mode control panel (MCP)
EFIS control panels
Master caution annunciations
Fire warning light.
The MCP uses integrated LED light switch assemblies. This design improves the reliability and maintainability of the mode
control panel.
The EFIS control panels are on the glareshield panel for easier access by the pilots. These control panels are similar to the
Boeing 747-400 and 777 EFIS control panels.

General
It is dangerous to work around engines. Use the entry/exit corridor when the engine is in operation. Also, stay out of the inlet and exhaust
areas when the engine is in operation.
CAUTION: PERFORM FOD WALK IN FRONT OF AND AROUND ENGINE INGESTION AREA PRIOR TO ENGINE START.
These are the hazards around an engine in operation:
* Inlet suction
* Exhaust heat
* Exhaust velocity
* Engine noise.
Inlet Suction
Engine inlet suction can pull people and large objects into the engine. At idle power, the inlet hazard area is a 10 ft (3.1 m) radius around the
inlet.
WARNING: IF THE WIND IS OVER 25 KNOTS, INCREASE THE INLET HAZARD AREA BY 20 PERCENT.
Exhaust Heat
The engine exhaust is very hot for long distances behind the engine. This can cause damage to personnel and equipment.
Exhaust Velocity
Exhaust velocity is very high for long distances behind the engine. This can cause damage to personnel and equipment.
Engine Noise
TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY
Engine noise can cause temporary and permanent loss of hearing. You must wear ear protection when near an engine in operation.
Engine Entry/Exit Corridor
Engine entry corridors are between the inlet hazard areas and the exhaust hazard areas. You should go near an engine in operation only
when:
* Engine is at idle
* You can speak with people in the flight compartment.
For additional safety, wear a safety harness when the engine is in operation.
Training Information Point
The beacon light must be on while the engines are on.
DOORS – INTRODUCTION
Purpose
The doors are movable units that give access to the airplane compartments.
General Description
These are the types of doors on the airplane:
* Forward and aft entry doors
* Forward and aft galley service doors
* Emergency exit doors
* Cargo doors
* Miscellaneous access doors.
A door warning system shows the crew that pressure bearing doors are closed and properly latched before flight. Pressure doors have silicon
rubber seals. The seals do these things:
* Seal air and light leaks
* Act as acoustic and thermal barriers
* Supply aerodynamic smoothness.
Location
The entry doors are on the left side of the airplane.
TRAINING PURPOSES ONLY
The galley service doors are on the right side of the airplane.
The emergency exit doors are above the wings on both sides of the airplane.
The cargo doors are on the right side of the airplane.
The miscellaneous access doors are near the systems they serve.

General
These are 7 jacking points to lift and stabilize the airplane. The jacking points consist of 3 main and 4 auxiliary jack points.
The main jack points are the wing jack points A and B, and the aft body jack point C. these jack points allow you to connect jacks and lift the
complete airplane
The 4 auxiliary jack points are the forward body jack point, the nose gear axle jack point, and the 2 main gear axle jack points. The forward
body jack point at position D stabilizes the airplane. Jack points E and F, underneath the LG axle, lets you remove the wheel and tire or brake
assembly without jacking the complete airplane.
Before you jack the airplane make sure that the airplane gross weight and the center of gravity are within the approved limits.
