light.0 to light.n The first entry of the line defines which circuit, or switch, the light is connected to (see the code table above). Multiple lights may be connected to a single switch. The next three entries are the position relative to datum reference point. The final entry is the...
REFERENCE DATUM LINE Starting point at or near the nose, around which measurements to any point on the fuselage are established by manufacturer ARM Distances in inches from the reference datum line to the center of gravity of a specific item MOMENT Calculation of components weight multiplied by it...
An optical processor in the aircraft projects on the reflector plate two horizontally aligned reference symbols (datum bars) and a third symbol (meatball) which is displaced vertically between the two datum bars as a function of the position of the aircraft from the preferred glide slope. The ...

(3) The jacks stroke enables the aircraft to be jacked up so that the Fuselage Datum Line (FDL) may be positioned up to 7 200 mm (283.46 in) from the ground to allow all required maintenance procedures and in particular, the removal/installation of the landing- gear shock absorbers. 2-...
Engine.1 = -49.3, 7.6, 4.3 //(feet) longitudinal, lateral, vertical distance from reference datum fuel_flow_scalar = 1.0 //Scalar for fuel flow efficiency min_throttle_limit = -0.00 //Minimum percent throttle. Generally negative for turbine reverser ...
Also, a datum for reference has been drawn through the chord line of the mean geometric chord (MGC) of the wing. The angle between the datum and the tangent to the flight path is the angle-of-attack (α or AOA). The relationship between these angles during climb and descent are shown...
Note that its reference datum is the zero-lift line of the airfoil and not the chord line. The angle between the two is αZL, as we expect from the airfoil geometric definition of Chapter 8. Constant-Pitch Propeller As the propeller moves in the direction of the rotation axis (i.e. ...
An optical landing system has been implemented into the software which will appear when on approach to the carrier. The FLOS provides vertical guidance in reference to the glidepath that the aircraft is on. If the FLOS "ball" is above the two bright green datum lines, the aircraft is above...
