Interior Arrangements: Describing the Flight Compartment, the Passenger Dispositions, Interior Trim and Freight Hold Capacity

Abstract

THE basic layout of the Trident flight compartment is designed to facilitate the eventual introduction of a fully automatic landing system, ‘Autoflare’ being the initial step towards this concept. Close collaboration has been maintained from the project stage with pilots and engineering staffs of airlines specializing in short/medium haul networks. The result is a flight compartment which is simple, spacious and adequately meets the operational safety requirements of a high speed civil airliner designed to achieve all‐weather utilization.
