2. Station Reference Lines

To facilitate locating various components and structural members in the airplane, a method using
fuselage station (FS), wing station (WS), buttock line (BL), or waterline (WL) designations is frequently
employed in this manual. (See “Figure 2”). Fuselage and wing stations and buttock and water lines are
reference points measured in inches (vertically or horizontally) from a given reference (or zero) line.

3. Access and Inspection Provisions

CAUTION: BEFORE ENTERING THE AFT SECTION OF THE FUSELAGE, BE SURE THE AIRPLANE
IS SUPPORTED AT THE TAIL SKID.
The access and inspection provisions for the airplane are shown in “Figure 3” on page 06009. The component
to be serviced or inspected through each opening is identified in the illustration. All access plates and
panels are secured by either metal fasteners or screws.
Access plates and panels includes all forms of covers, cowlings, fairings, plates, panels, tips, etc. identified
in “Figure 3” on page 06009 which may be removed for access to any component or space.
All access plates and panels should be inspected for damage or excessive wear, including all mounting
holes, each time they are removed. If damage or excessive wear is detected, installation of a new access
plate or panel is recommended.
To enter the aft section of the fuselage, open the baggage compartment door and remove the rear trim
panel.
