FedEx Airbus Aircraft - Introduction The AIRBUS A300F4-605R and A310-Series is a large body cargo carrying aircraft. It is manufactured by AIRBUS INDUSTRIES that consist of numerous European Aerospace Companies and assembled in Toulouse, France. The aircraft is a Short-To-Medium Range Aircraft that carries large volumes of packaged and loose freight freight for the FedEx Corporation. Corporation. The first A300F4-605R entered FedEx revenue service on 24 May 1994, Manufacturer’s Serial Number (MSN) 726 (FedEx Registration: N650FE). Initial Delivery Date was 28 April 1994 to the FedEx Corporation. The A300F4-605R manufactured for the FedEx Corporation was the first manufactured A300–600Series to carry a full load of freight instead of a mix of Passengers (PAXs) and Baggage/Cargo.

1.

Main Deck Cargo Compartment (MDCC), the upper deck of the Aircraft Fuselage begins fro m the aft end of the Courier Compartment to the rear section of the MDCC (A300/A310).

2.

FORWARD (FWD) Cargo Compartment is located on the Fuselage Lower Deck aft of the Avionics Compartment or Bay to Fuselage Frame (FR) 38 (A300/A310).

3.

AFT (AFT) Cargo Compartment, also located on the Fuselage Lower Deck aft of the Main Landing Gear Wheel Well or Hydraulic Compartment (Bay) at FR54 (A300/A310).

4.

BULK (BULK) Cargo Compartment is located aft of the AFT Cargo Compartment that interconnects with this compartment. A Cargo Curtain and Netting Assemblies divides the two compartments. The BULK Compartment ends aft of the BULK Cargo Door aft frame area at the lower deck aft pressurized equipment area.

The A310-Series ((DASH) –200F / -300F Series) were manufactured for carrying Revenue PAXs and Baggage, and some freight in the Lower Deck and Bulk Cargo Compartments.

The Aircraft Models A300-600 and A310-200 / various High Thrust Turbofan Engines power -300 Series aircraft:

Due to the large volume of space on the previous PAX Upper Deck (Main Deck), the conversion or re-configuration of this space with Cargo Handling and Cargo Restraint Equipment provided FedEx Corporation with a viable Cargo Freighter. The Upper Deck is referred to as Main Deck Cargo Compartment (MDCC) that carries mainly containerized and palletized palletized package cargo.

•

The A310-200F Series aircraft after freight conversion in Europe, provided FedEx with a Freight Revenue Aircraft to provide Short-ToMedium Range Aircraft with various routing options.

•

The A310-Series aircraft after freighter configuration conversion was delivere d to FedEx on 19 July 1994. This cargo conversion aircraft entered Revenue Service on 20 July 1994 with FedEx Registration: N497FE from the AIRBUS INDUSTRIES MSN: 254.

•

The Cargo Compartments for the FedEx A300 and A310 aircraft are comprised of four main areas:


00-4 004

A300-600 – Gen eral Electric (GE) CF6 -80C2A5F with the FADEC Model Engine Fuel System controls and schedules engine thrust for all ranges of flight conditions. FADEC is defined as Full Authority Digital Electronic Control Control System. Each engine produces approximately 61,300 Pounds of thrust at Sea Level Conditions. A310-200 Series – General Electric (GE) CF6- 80A3 Engines with the Power Management Control (PMC) System is designed to sense throttle position and other parameters for calculation purposes to produce desired thrust settings. Each engine produces approximately 48,970 Pounds of thrust at Sea Level conditions. A310-200 Series – Pratt & Whitney (PW) JT9D -7R4 Engines with the Electronic Engine Control (EEC) System is designed to provide Supervisory Control of the Hydro Mechanical Control (HMC) unit in the Engine Fuel System. The EEC System provides control of the engine for a wide range of thrust settings.

There are two Crew/Courier Doors (L1 and R1) on each side of the fuselage. Each Door is equipped with an Emergency Assisted Opening System and an Escape Slide Unit. Both of the Slide Units on the L1 and R1 Doors are also used as Rafts in the event of an emergency water landing.

Each engine produces approximately 50,000 Pounds Pounds of thrust at Sea Level conditions. A310-300 Series – Pratt & Whitney (PW) (PW) 4000 Series installed on FedEx FedEx New Acquisition Aircraft entering the Airbus Fleets during the Fiscal Year 2001 will have FADEC Control Systems. Each engine produces approximately 52,000 Pounds of thrust at Sea Level conditions.

The Hydraulic Compartment or Bay (Main Gear Wheel Wells) provides an installation area for Hydraulic Systems and Components. Air Conditioning Compartment or Bay is located below the Center Wing Section.

Future acquisition of the A310-300 Series Aircraft may have some Non-FADEC System(s) installed on the Engine Power Plants. These engines could be the GE CF6-80C2A2 or CF6-80C2A8 types models.

The Flight Control Systems have various control surfaces installed for maneuvering the about the Lateral, Vertical and Longitundial Axes. Primary and Secondary Flight Controls are hydraulically powered and no Manual Reversion is provided.

A Cold Stream Thrust Thrust Reverser System System is provided for for aircraft deceleration deceleration purposes on the ground that is powering the A300 and A310 FedEx Aircraft.

The Pneumatic System provides an air source for Air Conditioning Packs, Wing Anti-Ice, Main Engine Engine Starting, Thrust Reversers Reversers and to pressurize pressurize the Hydraulic Reservoirs, and Fresh Water (Potable) Water Systems. External High Pressure Pneumatic Ground Connectors are provided as an air source to the aircr aft systems.

The General Electric (GE) (Formerly Garrett/Honeywell) Gas Turbine Compressor Power Unit (GTCP) GTCP 331-250H located in the Fuselage Tail Section provides Electrical and Pneumatic Power sources. It is normally called “APU” (Auxiliary Power Unit). The Electrical Power System consists of 115 VAC/400 Hz/Three Phases (A-B-C) and 28 VDC. The AC System is powered by two Integrated Drive Generators (IDGs) on the Main Engines Number 1 and 2, and AC Generator on the APU. Three Transformer Rectifier Units (TRUs) convert AC Power into DC Power. Three DC Aircraft Batteries provide Emergency Power. A Static Inverter provides AC Emergency Power. Power. AC External Power Power is also available available for use. Structural Station Numbering for locations is in Centimeters (CM). Each Fuselage Frame (FR), Wing Rib, Vertical Stabilizer of Fin Ribs and Horizontal Stabilizer or Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer (THS) Ribs are marked with Identification Numbers. The aircraft is divided into Major and Minor Zone Areas. The Fuselage is divided into two areas, Upper and Lower Decks. The Upper Deck contains the Flight Deck or Flight Compartment, Courier and Main Deck Cargo Compartment (MDCC) areas. The Lower Deck provides compartments for Cargo and Equipment. The Fuselage is pressurized except for the Radome, Air Conditioning Conditioning and Tail Areas, and the Nose/Main Landing Gear Wheel Wells. The Main Gear Wheel Wells are also called Hydraulic Compartment or Bay.

Two Air Conditioning Packs provide a source of ventilation for Heating and Cooling purposes. Avionics Equipment is cooled by the Air Conditioning System to control equipment temperatures. The Pressurization System is automatically controlled to maintain a 6000 to 8000 Feet Cabin Altitude at various aircraft flight altitudes. Safety Valves provide Maximum Differential Pressure protection. A conventional Tricycle Tricycle Landing Landing Gear System supports supports the aircraft on the ground, Air-Oil Type Shock Absorbers or Main Struts are used and Landing Gear Doors are hydraulically and mechanically operated. Multiple-Disc Brakes with Anti-Skid features provide provide braking actions. actions. Automatic Brake Brake System provides deceleration of the aircraft, if selected. A Fixed Tail Skid provides protection of the Aft Fuselage area during Take Off and Landing conditions. The Nose Gear is steerable with the Nose Wheel Steering (NWS) System during emergencies with Differential Braking using Main Gear Braking System.
