• operations with landing gear extended
• operations with one bleed system inoperative
→ See chapter 4.24 for applicable performance data.

1.10.17 Operation from Unpaved/Gravel Runway

This procedure corresponds to supplements 26 of the AFM.

An operation on unpaved/gravel runways is not permitted:
• in tailwind condition in excess of 10 kt (AFM Supplement 3),
• with inoperative Anti-Skid Brake System (AFM Supplement 7),
• with inoperative Nosewheel Steering System (AFM Supplement 8),
• when performing steep approaches (AFM Supplement 12),
• when taking off with reduced power (AFM Supplement 13),
• with inoperative flight spoilers in ground mode (AFM Supplement 17),
• when taking off with Bleed “ON” (AFM Supplement 21),

• when the aeroplane is equipped with 32 inch tires (AFM Supplement 65)

1.10.17.1.2 Additional Limitations:

1) The runway:
a. Shall have a uniform covering of surface material that is graded smooth and kept free from ruts to avoid
the formation of pools of water during periods of precipitation.
b. Surface bearing material must not be less than 12 inches in depth and well compacted. The surface
bearing material must demonstrate a minimum average California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of 30 with the
lowest measured CBR points of not less than 20, as determined by a Boeing High Load Penetrometer.
c. Areas of loose gravel and surface stones greater than 1 inch (2.54 cm) in diameter shall not be permit-
ted.
d. Vegetation shall not be permitted.
e. Shall be inspected at a frequency dictated by local conditions to assure satisfactory surface condition.
2) Use of reverse thrust is prohibited.
3) Take-off from unpaved/gravel runways is approved with flap 15° only.
4) Landing on unpaved/gravel runways is approved with flap 35° only.
5) Engine inlet nacelle bypass doors must be open for take-off and landing.
6) Maximum temperature for take-off and landing is ISA +25°C.
