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 use rates are shown this way

 Average daily utilization 7.6 hr
 Average flight length 1.4 hr
 Schedule reliability 99.3%.
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.

BASIC STRUCTURAL DESCRIPTION

The airplane is a low wing twin engine design. The engines are below the wings on struts. It has full cantilever wings and
tail surfaces. The fuselage is a semi-monocoque design.
HIGH-FATIGUE DESIGN LIFE

The design service objective is 75,000 flight cycles. For typical airline operations, the aircraft reaches this objective after 25
years of service.
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
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.
These auxiliary structures attach to fuselage:

 Nose radome
 Wing-to-body fairing
 Tail cone.


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
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.
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.
Training Information Point

You can open and close entry, galley service, and cargo doors in winds up to 40 knots without structural damage. You can let these doors
stay latched open in winds up to 65 knots without structural damage. If a door is open for a long time, a protective cover should be put
over the door frame. This prevents bad weather damage to the airplane. When an entry and galley service doors are open and not used,
a safety strap must be attached in the doorway.

DOORS – INTRODUCTION


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.
