9.4. Package size dimension
HEIGHT meters
WARNING: DO NOT EXCEED THE LIMITS OF THE AIRCRAFT CENTER OF
GRAVITY, FLOOR LOADING OR BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT LOADING
WHEN YOUPLAN THE CARGO/PASSENGER LOADING. IF THIS
HAPPENS THEAIRCRAFT MAY NOT BE IN A SAFE, BALANCED
CONDITION FOR TAKE−OFF, FLIGHT AND LANDING.
The loading of bulky baggage may be limited by access through the baggage
compartment door and by restrictive items in the baggage compartment area. The
maximum dimension of items that can be loaded into the baggage area can be
determined by referring to the Table− Maximum Package Dimensions.
The Maximum Package Dimensions table provides a quick reference for determining if
a given piece of cargo can be loaded into the baggage compartment. The dimensions
shown are approximate. By cross-referencing the known height and width of a piece of
baggage, the chart provides the maximum package length which can be stowed in the
baggage compartment.
The Maximum Package Chart assumes that the baggage divider nets have been
removed for loading and there is no interference from previously loaded items. Tilting,
twisting, bending, and/or rotating packages through the baggage door may allow
additional package lengths to be loaded. If shoring is used to distribute the weight of the
item, the height of the shoring must be considered when determining the package
height. For cargo items which are not limited to a particular orientation, some advantage
may be gained by reversing the height and width dimensions.

10. BALLAST
Ballast of 200 kg is mandatory in zone cargo compartment 6 (aft cargo) for training flights
only (crew code 2+0 and 3+0).
11. DELIVERY AT AIRCRAFT (DAA)
Hand baggage (DAA) has to be loaded in the compartment 6 and requires a remark on the
LDM.
Example: DAA 6/X (x is number of pieces in DAA)
The number of DAA pieces should be reported to the flight crew.

Note: Weight of one baggage in DAA is 8 kg.
If index at zero fuel weight (LIZFW) or take-off (LITOW) plus DAA index influence
exceeds operational limits (cg outside of the operational envelope) consider redistribution (or unloading) of cargo load or passengers.
DAA – Weight influence check
There is no influence of DAA on aircraft weight (baggage is only moved from cabin to
cargo compartment). However, in case of DAA, cargo compartment 6 load limit must be
observed.

2. DCS – CARRIER APPROVAL
When handling company receive aircraft data (AHM560) for the first time in order to be
approved for load and trim sheet production, they shall send EDP database printout as
well as test loadsheets on carrier address for data validation.
Carrier address is specified in chapter A on page 1.

3. DCS UPDATE
For every change in input data (revision of AHM560) as well as when EDP provider
changes, we will require confirmation of data update and test load and trim sheet.
Also 6 month after the last data revision (revision of AHM560) we will require status of
AHM560 (revision number and date) or database printout and test LTS for each aircraft
type.
Periodically we will check load and trim sheet and in case of any irregularity we may
required additional check of input and output data.
