12.1 AEROPLANE GENERAL 12.1.1 Introduction The Dash 8
Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General 12.1 12.1.1 AEROPLANE GENERAL Introduction The Dash 8-Q400 is a high wing aeroplane manufactured by Bombardier Aerospace with shared interests from several partners (Figure 12.1-1). It is powered by two 5071 shaft horsepower PW 150A turboprop engines. Each engine drives a six bladed propeller. The Dash 8 is a two pilot transport category aeroplane approved for instrument flight and in SAS versions approved for operation to a maximum altitude of 25,000 feet. In SAS versions the aeroplane seats from 58 to 72 passengers and two cabin crew members in addition to the pilot, copilot, and flight observer. In SAS version It has a maximum take-off mass of: • • • 27987 kg (Basic Gross Mass) 28998 kg (Intermediate Gross Mass) 29257 kg (High Gross Mass) The aeroplane has an Active Noise and Vibration Suppression (ANVS) system. 12.1.2 General The fuselage (Figure 12.1-1) is constructed in three main parts: • • • Forward Center Aft The forward section includes the flight deck, which has the majority of controls, instruments, and indications. Circuit breaker panels are located on the flight deck aft bulkhead, and behind the pilot's and copilot's seats. There is a forward baggage compartment on the right forward part of the fuselage, and an aft baggage compartment forward of the aft pressure bulkhead. Both baggage doors open outwards and can only be opened from the outside. The passenger compartment doors and one type II/III exit can be opened from either the inside or outside.

Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General Towing Switch Description. The TOW-NAV Lt Switch is a standard 2-position switch with a Guard that forces it to NORMAL (the other is TOWING). In addition there is a 7,5 Amp Circuit Breaker for the Power. Power is taken directly from the main battery at a point behind the DC CONTROL panel and feed via the TOW Circuit Breaker & Switch to a point behind the EXTERIOR LIGHTS panel. The towing personnel shall only flip the guard and place the switch in TOW. After towing is done, the guard is closed and the Switch goes to normal. Page 23 Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General 93ft 3in.

The six bladed propellers are 4.12 m in diameter, and clears the fuselage by 1.1 m). The wheel track is 8.80 m and the nose wheel to main wheel distance is 13.94 m. Using a nose steering of 70° requires a minimum 25.7 m of pavement for a 180° turn (Figure 12.1-19). The height to the bullet fairing, on top of the vertical stabilizer is about 8.26 m depending on the aeroplane loading. The height to the wing tips is about 3.9 m. 12.1.4.2 Structural Design The airframe structure is made from high strength aluminum alloys. The fuselage skins are chemically milled and riveted to stringers and frames. Steel structural alloy is used in the landing gear and certain airframe components. Other structural components are made from various approved aluminum, steel or titanium materials. Magnesium is used in selected interior regions of the flight deck, cabin and engine. Composite panels include the: • • • • • • • • • Radome (Fiberglass/honeycomb core) Nose Equipment Bay (Aramid fiber) Wing to Fuselage Fairings (Fiberglass) Tailcone (Aramid fiber) Tailcone with optional APU (Titanium) Bullet Fairing (Mybrid composite Glass/Aramid fiber) Dorsal Fin (Mybrid composite Glass/Aramid fiber) Stabilizer leading edge (Aramid fiber covered by rubber de-ice boots) Ice Protection Panels 12.1.5 Forward Section 12.1.5.1 Nose The nose is in front of the forward pressure bulkhead. It contains the nose wheel well and an unpressurized equipment deck, and the weather radar radome. 12.1.5.2 Flight Deck The flight deck extends from the forward pressure bulkhead to a fixed bulkhead aft of the flight crew seats. The windshield panels are laminated glass and the side window panels are a combination of laminated glass and plastic. Page 25 Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General R-6 R-4 R-1 70 R-2 84 ft. 5 in.

Pneumatic deicer boots are installed on the leading edges of the center wing sections and outboard from the landing lights. The wing has single slotted flaps extending from the side of the fuselage to inboard of the ailerons. Conventional ailerons are installed for lateral control and work with differential lateral control spoilers on the upper wing skin. The spoilers also have a ground mode. When set the spoilers extend on landing to reduce lift. Page 28 Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General 1 6 5 2 3 4 LEGEND 1. Elevators. 2. Fore Rudder. 3. Trailing Rudder. 4. Vertical Stabilizer. 5.

NOTE Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General Dash8 - Q400 - Aeroplane General 12.1.7 Centre Section The passenger cabin has a constant cross-section and bulkheads with a slightly flattened bottom (Figure 12.1-22). 12.1.8 AFT Section The aft section is unpressurized and is swept up from the center section. It consists of the rear pressure dome and the supporting structure for the empennage. This area houses the air conditioning packs and the APU. There is access to the interior of the aft fuselage section for inspection and maintenance. Empenage The empennage has a horizontal stabilizer with separate right and left elevators, and a vertical stabilizer with fore and trailing rudders. The empennage is mounted on the aft fuselage section (Figure 12.1-21). Horizontal Stabilizer The fixed incidence horizontal stabilizer is attached to the top of the vertical stabilizer. The leading edges are made from composite material and have pneumatic deicer boots bonded to them. Elevators Both elevators normally operate together, but can function independently if the pitch disconnect system is operated. The elevators are hydraulically operated with artificial feel. Hydraulic actuators are used for trimming. Vertical Stabilizer The vertical stabilizer and rearmost portion of the fuselage are constructed as one piece. The leading edge is made from composite material and has a pneumatic deicer boot, with two chambers, bonded to it. A composite bullet fairing is installed on top of the vertical stabilizer. Rudder The rudder has a fore and trailing section. The fore rudder is hinged to the rear vertical stabilizer spar and the trailing rudder is hinged to the trailing edge of the fore rudder. The trailing rudder is geometrically arranged to give a deflection twice that of the fore rudder. Two hydraulically powered actuators operate the rudder. Page 31
