The design combines the in-service experience gained from the A330 and A340 aircraft operated all around the world with new technology developed specifically for the A380 program. The general arrangement is a four-engine configuration with rearward swept low wing and a conventional ‘The basic model is the A380-800 Long Range passenger model Certification Basis * Design, construction and type certificate: JAR 25 at change 15 (FAR 25 amendments 1 to 98 exc. 87 and 96) * Noise requirements: JAR 36 (plus 2 NPAs) equivalent to ICAO Annex 16 (Chapter 4) + Emission requirements: JAR 34 @ 2 Poe ‘STL 946,1380/05 Issue 2 Flight Deck and Systems Briefing for Pilots 12A380 General 2.General Arrangement Typical Cabin Layout The A380 has a full-length double-deck fuselage. The two passenger decks are referred to as the main and upper deck. Both decks are connected by cabin stairs and galley lifts. The cockpit is located between these two decks (Refer to Flight Deck Layout). The typical cabin layout is 555 seats. The passenger seating layout may vary, depending on the Operator's requirements. The two passenger decks offer a wide range of cabin arrangement possibilities. Peed Each deck can have up to: * 10 seats abreast in each row of the main deck + 8 seats abreast in each row of the upper deck. Each deck can either be serviced from the main deck only, or from both decks simultaneously. The A380-800 aircraft has 8 pairs of large passenger doors (Type A). Five pairs are on the main deck and three pairs are on the upper deck.
