The ACN/PCN charts are here.

It took me all today to get that ACN answer and check it (although most of that was spent on other aircraft as my work widened).

Typical of responding to something technical on PPRUNE, as one thing led to another. Not an entirely wasted day, playing with designs to get ACNs. I found a significant error in one major ACN/pavement design program, and another significant error in the ACN chart in the ops manual of another aircraft type (which gives a major improvement for the aircraft and makes the economics considerably better) [all obviously nameless] That in turn will spin off into another day's engineering work for the engineers involved with the program to fix it, and a couple of days work for the aircraft manufacturer. I'll end with a better program, and I reckon the aircraft manufacturer owes me a case of cold beer.

Not bad for what seemed like a simple PPRUNE Tech Log question
