INTRODUCTION

The sweptwing DC-10 Series 40 air-craft is a long range tri-jetdesigned for the transportation ofpassengers and cargo. Three inter-changeable Pratt & Whitney JT9D,high-bypass ratio turbofan enginesare used for propulsion.

DESIGN FEATURES

GENERAL

Fuselage

The wide-bodied fuselage is of semi-monocoque metal construction. Allareas are pressurized except thenose radome, wheelwells, wing centersection, and aft fuselage. The fuse-lage is divided lengthwise into anupper-floor level and a lower-floorlevel. The galley and lavatorycompartments are located on theupper-floor level. The cargo andaccessory compartments are located onthe lower-floor level. Two mainaisles are provided on the upperfloor. Eight passenger entrance/exitdoors are installed.

Cabin windows are double pane con-struction. Either pane is capableof carrying full pressurization.

Wing

The cantilevered wing consists of aprimary box structure with a leadingand trailing edge secondary struc-ture. The box is of two-spar con-struction containing integral,between-spar fuel tanks. This

primary box also carries the mainlanding gear supporting structure,engine pylons, full span leadingedge slats, spoilers, and trailingedge ailerons and flaps. Rupture-resistant fuel tanks and lines areprovided in case of landing gearand/or flap breakaway.

Tail

The tail is of metal construction andincludes an adjustable horizontalstabilizer, right and left two-section elevators, a tail-enginepylon, a fixed vertical stabilizer,and a two-section (four-segment)rudder. The adjustable horizontalstabilizer is pivoted at the trailingedge and uses hydraulic poweredmotors to change the angle-of-incidence.

SYSTEMS

Three continuously pressurized hydraulicsystems are provided, each powered bytwo engine-driven pumps with intersys-tems motor pump backup. Two electricauxiliary pumps are installed in systemthree. Emergency hydraulic power isavailable from an electric auxiliary pumppowered by an air driven generator.

Ice and Rain Protection

The ice and rain protection systems pro-vide all-weather flight capability. Ther-mal heating is provided for anti-icing theoutboard wing slats, VHF-1 antenna, andfor the nose cowl inlet area of eachengine. Electric heaters provide anti-icing for pitot tubes, static ports, angle-of-attack vane, total air temperatureprobe, and exterior windshields. Elec-tric heaters also are used for defoggingthe windshields and clearview windows.Rain protection is provided for thewindshields by electric wipers and achemical rain repellent system.

Landing Gear

The landing gear, nosewheel steering,brakes, and antiskid systems are basically

conventional. All systems are hydrauli-cally powered. A manual, free-fallalternate gear extension capability isprovided.

Navigation Systems

The navigation equipment includes theVOR/ILS, ADF, DME, radio altitude,and marker beacon systems; the weatherradar, the clock, and (as desired)INS equipment.

Pneumatics

The pneumatic system distributes andcontrols pneumatic pressure for air con-ditioning, pressurization, anti-icing,heating, ventilation, water pressuriza-tion, and engine starting. Pneumaticpressure is supplied from either anexternal source, the APU, or theengines.

Power Plant

The aircraft is powered by three Pratt &Whitney JT9D dual-rotor, high bypassratio turbofan engines. The enginesincorporate a front fan and booster stagecomprising the low pressure compress-or section, a high pressure compressorwith variable pitch stators, annular com-bustors, and high and low pressureturbines.

Water and Waste Systems

DOORS

GENERAL

Eight cabin doors, a cockpit door, a doorfor each lavatory, and three lower cargodoors are provided. The cabin doors canbe operated electrically, pneumaticallyor manually. The cockpit and lavatorydoors are operated manually. The lowercargo doors can be operated electricallyor manually.

DESCRIPTION

Cockpit Door

The cockpit door has built-in ventilation,pressure differential relief, and smokeisolation features. The door is manuallyoperated by a standard doorknob. A keyis normally required to open the doorfrom the cabin side; however, if elec-trical power is available and the cockpitis occupied, the door lock may bereleased electromagnetically by a push-button on the overhead panel. The doorcan be opened from inside the cockpit atany time by rotating the doorknob. Acabin viewer is installed in the door toprovide the flight crew with a view of thecabin area.

Lavatory Doors

The lavatory doors are manually operatedfrom inside lavatory, by using a slidingbolt lock. The position of the lock isindicated by a VACANT/OCCUPIED signon cabin side of door. Each door can beunlocked from the cabin side by using anexternal unlocking knob concealed behind

the hinged LAVATORY sign. Lifting thebottom edge of the hinged LAVATORYsign exposes the unlocking knob.

Cabin Doors

Eight cabin doors, four on each side ofaircraft, are used for normal passageand all have emergency opening andescape features.

NOTE

For emergency operation of thecabin doors refer to EmergencyExits in Chapter 7.

Each cabin door is a plug type and opensby moving inward and then sliding upwardinto the ceiling. Each door has interiorand exterior controls for normal openingand closing. The six aft (mid, overwing,and aft) cabin doors have identical interiorcontrols, placarding and operating pro-cedures. The two forward cabin doorsare not identical to the six aft doors andhave different interior controls, placard-ing, and operating procedures.

The interior controls for normal opera-tion of the doors consist of the slide arm-ing lever located on the structure adjacentto the door and two door control switch-lights on the cabin attendants console.The escape slide must be disarmed beforethe switch-lights can be used to open orclose the door. When the escape slide isdisarmed the corresponding cabin doorlight on the Flight Engineer's panel andthe two switch-lights on the adjacent cabinattendan's console will come on.

The exterior controls placarding andoperating procedures are identical for allcabin doors. The exterior controls foreach door are located in a recess in thefuselage forward of the door and consist

JLMay 1/75 01-30-01

Page 35: McDonnell Douglas DC 10 40 Airplane General

of a door control handle, a door controlswitch, and an auxiliary handle. Thedoor control handle is used to arm anddisarm the escape slide. The door con-trol switch is used to open and close thedoor. All cabin doors can be manuallylowered from the outside to the closedposition (by free falling) using the doorcontrol handle and the auxiliary handle.

The left forward cabin door can beopened and closed from the outside withno electrical power on the aircraft. Asocket drive fitting may be operatedmanually or by a drill motor. Thisfeature is normally used by maintenance.

Barrier straps, one for each door, aresecured across open doorways as asafety precaution when a ramp or stair-way is not in place. The straps shouldbe disconnected at both ends from thedoor jamb fittings before closing thedoors. Stowage for the straps is providedin the overhead stowage racks.

Lower Cargo Doors

Three external doors are provided foraccess to the lower cargo compartment.The forward and center doors are locatedin the lower right side of the fuselage;the aft door is located in the lower leftside of the fuselage. Bulk or container-ized cargo can be loaded through the for-ward and center cargo doors; bulk cargoonly can be loaded through the aft door.The doors vary in size but are identificalin operation. They are electricallyoperated but can be operated manuallywhen no electrical power is available.An electrical control panel is installed

in the fuselage forward of each door.Each door has a vent door which ventsfuselage pressure overboard if the cargodoor is not properly locked. Limitswitches control the sequencing of theelectrically operated door mechanismsand also provide a visual warning on theFlight Engineer's panel when the door isnot properly closed and locked. Anemergency call switch on the door pro-vides a visual warning in the flight com-partment if actuated by personnel inad-vertently locked in a cargo compartment.A backup test system also is provided tocheck the integrity of the cargo door elec-trical warning system. The test switchis installed on the Flight Engineer'supper instrument panel.

The doors are hinged at the top and openout and up. The doors are opened,closed, and latched by actuating mech-anisms in the doors. External drivefittings also are provided for actuatingthe operating and latching mechanismsmanually. Viewing ports near thebottom of the doors permit checking theposition of the latching mechansimlockpin.

LIGHTING

GENERAL

The normal aircraft lighting systemscomprise the cockpit, passenger cabinand galley, and exterior systems. Thelatter category includes only thoseexterior lights which are controlled fromthe cockpit. Within each major sub-system the general illumination, supple-mentary, and standby lighting systemsare discussed, if applicable. A descrip-tion of the emergency evacuation lightsmay be found in Chapter 7.

DESCRIPTION

Interior Lighting

Cockpit Lighting - Cockpit illuminationis provided by primary, secondary,thunderstorm, and standby lighting sys-tems. The primary system consists ofintegrally lighted instruments and light-plates with individual control circuits toprovide a continuous control of the illumi-nation from maximum light intensity toOFF. Fluorescent lamps are used in adome light for general illumination ofthe cockpit. For the secondary system,a combination of fluorescent and incandes-cent lamp floodlights are used for themain instrument panels and the FlightEngineer's worktable. Incandescentfloodlights are used for the overheadpanel, the pedestal, and the FlightEngineer's instrument panels. Individualcontrols are used for the floodlights tovary the illumination level from maximumlight intensity to off. A thunderstormswitching circuit is installed to overrideall instrument, floodlight and dome lightcontrols and provide a high intensityillumination. Supplementary map, brief-case, chart holder, worktable, and floor-lights are provided for crew utilization asrequired. A standby lighting system is

provided which automatically turns onselected white floodlights of the secondarylighting system if normal electrical powerfails to supply dc bus three. The standbysystem will provide the following opera-tion: (1) The center instrument panelincandescent floodlights will be energizedonly and will illuminate the standby hori-zon, altimeter, and airspeed indicators.With the incandescent floodlight controlin the full OFF position, the centerinstrument panel will be illuminated witha preset light intensity. With a clockwiserotation of this control the preset illumi-nation level can be increased to maximumlight intensity. With the EMER PWRswitch in the ON position, the incandes-cent floodlights for the Captain and FirstOfficer's instrument panels will be ener-gized with their respective incandescentfloodlight knobs in the full OFF position,and will provide illumination at a presetlight intensity. A clockwise rotation ofthe respective control will allow illumina-tion level to be increased to maximumlight intensity. (2) The left incandescentfloodlights for the overhead panel and theFlight Engineer's upper and lower panelswill be operated at a preset light intensity.In the event of a total loss of electricalpower, the battery switch must be at BATfor the standby lights to operate.

Cabin Lighting - Illumination in the cabinis provided by two general types oflighting. The portion of the cabinbetween the drop ceilings is illuminatedby direct overhead and indirect sidewall(mood) lighting. The areas under thedrop ceilings are illuminated by directceiling floodlights on the cross-aislesand over each main cabin door. Individ-ually controlled reading lights are pro-vided for each seat position. Additionallythere are threshold boarding lights ineach entryway. In the event of cabindepressurization, the overhead lightingin all cabin sections is automaticallyactuated.

JLMay 1/76 01-40-01

Page 48: McDonnell Douglas DC 10 40 Airplane General

Exterior Lighting

The exterior lighting consists of landing,ground operating, anti-collision, scan,high intensity, and position lighting sys-tems. There are four landing lights,one located on each side of the forwardfuselage and two on the nose gear. Twoground flood/runway turnoff lights,located on each side of the fuselage nearthe wing root, may be used to supplementthe nose gear landing lights during taxioperations or for general area illumi-nation. Two anti-collision beacons, onelocated on top and one on the bottom ofthe center fuselage are provided. Scanlights for the wing and number one andthree engine nacelles are located on eachside of the fuselage forward of the wing.Position lighting consists of a non-standard arrangement of lights on eachwing tip. Dual red and dual green lightsare mounted on each tip in the standard

manner, but the white position lights aremounted two on the trailing edge of eachwing tip, rather than on the tail. Thiswingtip arrangement still providesstandard left/right and fore/aft orienta-tion to an external observer. In addi-tion, each wing tip has three sequentiallyflashing high intensity lights which maybe separately controlled from thecockpit.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

Controls and indicators are on the Over-head Panel, the Captain's andCopilot's Light Control Panels, FlightEngineer's Lower Panel, and the Pedes-tal. Illustrations of the panels are inanother section of this chapter. Individ-ual controls and indicators also areillustrated and described in anothersection of this chapter.

SEATS

GENERAL

The cockpit contains seats for a Captain,| Copilot, Flight Engineer, and a

First and Second Observer. The FlightEngineer's seat is located behind theFirst Officer's station and the Observers'seats are located behind the Captain'sstation. All seats, except the SecondObserver's seat, have electrical and/ormanual adjustments. If the electricalcontrol or power of a seat fails, fullmovement of the seat is possible thrumanual operation. All seats are equippedwith belts and dual shoulder harnesseswith inertia reels. All seats except theSecond Observer's seat are equipped witha crotch belt.

DESCRIPTION

| Seats for the Captain and Copilotare power operated by two electricmotors to provide vertical and horizontaladjustments. The recline, lumbar sup-port, armrest, and thigh support controls

I are manually operated.Copilot's seat has a recline limit switchwhich inhibits outboard movement of theseat whenever the backrest is reclinedmore than one notch from the uprightposition. The seat indicator incorporatestwo numerical index scales; one scalerepresenting the vertical position of theseat and the other the horizontal. By

means of individual exit control switches,the Captain's and Copilot's seat Imay be moved to the full aft and outboardpositions to facilitate exit.

The Pilot Eye Locator consists of opticalpainted white lines on the glareshield.An illustration and the operation of thewhite line optical locator is shown in thissection.

The Flight Engineer's seat also is poweroperated to provide vertical and hori-zontal adjustments. The recline, lumbarsupport, armrest, and swivel controlsare manually operated. The swivel con-trol permits adjustment between forwardand outboard facing positions. Whenfacing forward, the seat can be raisedhigher vertically than when facingoutboard.

On power-operated seats, placing thepower ON/OFF switch to OFF afteradjusting the seat for takeoff or landingprevents seat movement (runaway seat)if an electrical short should occur in theseat wiring.

The First Observer's seat has manualadjustments only. These adjustments pro-vide vertical, forward, aft, lumbar sup-port and swivel movement. The backrestis fixed and cannot be adjusted. TheSecond Observer's seat is a foldingnonadjustable type bolted directly to thefloor structure.

WARNING AND CAUTION SYSTEMS

GENERAL

The warning and caution systems provideaural, visual, and tactile indications towarn of unsafe operating conditions oraircraft configurations, and systemsmalfunctions. Warnings of fire or over-heating, unsafe landing gear conditions,altitude advisory indications, slatsextended above placarded limit speeds,autopilot disengage, loss of cooling air-flow thru inertial navigation unit, andexcessive cabin altitude are both visualand aural. Stabilizer motion, overspeed,and takeoff configuration warnings areaural only. Stall warning is provided bystick shaker only, with no accompanyingvisual or aural indications.

DESCRIPTION

Central Aural Warning System

Aural warnings (except APU fire) aregenerated in a central control unit whichprovides warning discrimination by meansof varying the pitch, duration, and repeti-tive frequency of the aural signal. Theaural warnings can be tested for all con-ditions except cabin altitude, and altitudeadvisory. Once sounded, the aural warn-ings can be silenced by operating theappropriate silencing switch or returningthe aircraft to the correct configurationfor the condition indicated. Detailedinformation regarding the operation andtesting of each of the central aural warn-ing system functions are covered in thedescription and controls and indicatorssections of each of those chapters dealingwith the applicable systems.

APU Fire Warning Horn

Aural warning for APU fire is providedby an exterior horn, common to bothsystems, located just aft of the left wheelwell. Provisions are made for silencing

the horn and for re-arming the circuitryfor subsequent warnings.

Visual Warning and Caution System

Visual warning and caution indicationsare provided in the engine fire and fuelcontrol handles and by annunciator lights.Where practical, individual lights arelocated adjacent to, or in the controls orindicators for the respective system.Lights pertaining to systems with controlsor indicators in more than one area arelocated on annunciator panels for the For-ward Overhead Panel and Flight Engi-neer's Upper Instrument Panel No. 2.The red MASTER WARN lights comeon to indicate a condition that requiresimmediate attention. The amber MASTERCAUTION lights come on to indicate acondition that requires less than imme-diate attention.

Master warning and master caution lightscome on concurrently with their respec-tive individual warning and caution lightsat the respective crew stations. Addi-tionally, the Captain's and Copilot'sMASTER WARN or MASTER CAUTIONlights will come on whenever certainselected warning or caution lights comeon at the Flight Engineer's station. Push-ing either of the pilots' MASTER WARNor MASTER CAUTION lights will turnthe respective lights off at both sta-tions and reset the system for subsequentindications. The flight engineer'sMASTER WARNING or MASTERCAUTION lights can be reset only fromthe flight engineer's station and do notreset the pilots' lights. The individualwarning or caution lights will remain onuntil the condition has been corrected.During dual land mode, the MASTERWARN and MASTER CAUTION lights areinhibited at 100 feet radio altitude.Certain individual caution lights are

JLMay 1/76 01-60-01

Page 61: McDonnell Douglas DC 10 40 Airplane General

considered advisory and do not cause theMASTER CAUTION lights to come on.

Summary lights and cue lights on the pilots'annunciator panel provide indications ofwarnings or cautions associated with thevarious aircraft systems. The summary lightsare not resettable and will remain on until thecondition is corrected. The cue lights may bereset and, when pushed, will also turn off thepilots' MASTER CAUTION lights. Annun-ciator light brilliance is controlled by PRESSTO BRT/DIM buttons on the Overhead Paneland on the Flight Engineer's panel. The but-tons affect all annunciator lights at the respec-tive crew station except:

• MASTER WARNING lights.

• MASTER CAUTION lights.

• First 8 lights in column 2 and 3 of theFlight Engineer annunciator panel (in-cludes all door lights).

Tactile Warning System

The dual stall warning system actuates a stickshaker to warn of an impending stall. Novisual stall warning is provided.

Ground Proximity Warning System

For detailed description of ground proximitywarning system, refer to Navigation SystemsChapter.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

Controls and indicators are on the FlightEngineer's Upper Panel No. 1, Upper Panel No.2, Upper Panel No. 3, the Pilot's InstrumentPanels, Overhead Panel, the Pedestal, and theGlareshield. Illustrations of the panels are inanother section of this chapter. Individualcontrols and indicators are illustrated anddescribed elsewhere in this section.
