INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION

1. Content and Organization

This manual contains information regarding modifications and standard options applicable to the DHC-6 Twin
Otter aircraft. The manual is divided into two parts as follows.

A. Modification Index

The modification index provides the operator with a numerical listing of the existing Viking Air Limited
modifications applicable to the DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft.

The modification index is split into two parts. Part 1 lists all Legacy modifications; Part 1A lists all
modifications created by Viking Air Limited.

The index gives a short description of the modification; the serial number of the aircraft by modification (i.e.
A/C Applicability), and when it was cut-in on aircraft prior to delivery (Cut-In).

Where the modification has a retrofit application, either the number of the covering bulletin, already
distributed to the operator, or ‘Pending', is noted under ‘Bul Appl'.

The bulletin should be consulted for the specific serial numbers of the aircraft affected by retrofit. Where the
modification can only be accomplished during aircraft build and therefore, no retrofit action is applicable, no
bulletin will be issued and the 'Bul Appl' column will remain blank. Modification numbers with the letter ‘B'
below denote modifications that are considered company mandatory by Viking Air Limited, i.e. embodied on
all new aircraft before delivery from the plant and therefore highly recommended for retrofit if applicable.
The operator should check the relevant airworthiness directives, issued by their airworthiness authority, to
determine if retrofit of the particular Mod has been mandated by that authority.

B. Standard Order Option List

The Standard Order Option (S.O.O.) list shows the standard options which are available for the DHC-6 Twin
Otter aircraft. The options are listed in numerical order with a descriptive title, and give the range of aircraft
for which the S.O.O. is designed. Retrofit application of the S.O.O. is covered by a Service Bulletin, the
number of which is shown in the ‘Bul Appl' column.
