Airbus panel codes
 

When I walk round my old Airbus I see that many of the panels have a code on them,e.g 123AB.Does a list exist for each Airbus type of which panel is which and where can I find it?

Maintenance Manual
 

Chapter 6 'Dimensions and Areas.

TL.
They are also listed in the MPD (Maintenance Planing Document) for your a/c type.:ok:

Tubby,

The 'code' on the panel gives its location. Since you are already looking at the panel, it tells you nothing you didn't know already.

123AB 'decoded' means;

1 - zone (1 - lower fuselage, 2 - upper fuselage, 3 - empannage, 4 - nacelles, 5 - left wing, 6 - right wing, 7 - landing gear, 8 - doors)
2 - sub-zone
3 - sub sub-zone
A - sequence
B - locator (T - top, B - bottom, L - left, R - right, Z - interior)

The Airbus CLM (component locator manual) also has panel stuff in it. Great for c/b info.:ok:

Tubby,

Are you flight Deck or Engineering?
I ask because if you are Engineering and don't know about panel numbering then thats a little bit of a worry!

It is ok he is Flight Deck.:ok:

Phew! For a second there I thought he might have just got his ticket through JAR66! not BCAR! (only joking!)

SAD BUT TRUE, 66 is no match for BCAR

Definetly..

Bring back BCAR + oral examinations with immediate effect..

We all know you can certainly afford it.. However, maybe something
to do with approx just x 9 UKCAA employees with LAE background's currently in the UKCAA SRG Engineer's PLD...:}

BAe146??? :{:{:{

Are you serious? then what are the others just pencil pushers? where di the others go? back into industry or pushing up daisies?

Why do you think there are so many anomalies with initial licence applications, renewals (5 year or rolling) & adding type or group
ratings etc?

The admin staff do their best BUT not all Form 19s or nicely worded
requests get full surveyor attention - A 'glance' shall we say..
One thing's for sure, the revenue stream remains priority ££££
