Sep 13/2004 Flight Crew Operating Manual Volume 2
REV 1 CSP 100-6 00-02-01
FORWARD
The Challenger 300 Flight Crew Operating Manual, Volume 2 is designed to provide the flight crew with readily accessible
operational information For optimum utilization of the manual, this introduction should be read carefully.
The purpose of the Operating Manual is to:
- Standardize terminology and behavioral patterns.
- Provide reference material for self-teaching.
- Provide information on airplane systems and operations that are controlled and revised.
Throughout this manual, the experience of the typical crew has been recognized and for this reason, basic system principles
have been omitted. For example, the text is not intended to teach the crew how to fly an airplane, but to enable an experi-
enced crew to operate the Challenger 300 safely and proficiently.
All data is based on the fact that the airplane is serviceable, all busses are powered and all systems are operational.
For clarity and simplicity, the manual is written in the imperative, in order that the information and operating instructions
may be presented in a positive sense and require no interpretation by the user.
INTRODUCTION
The information in this manual is intended to augment the Challenger 300 Approved Airplane Flight Manual and in no
manner supersedes any Flight Manual limitations, procedures, or performance data. If any information in this manual
should conflict with that in the Approved Airplane Flight Manual, the Approved Airplane Flight Manual shall
take precedence.
THE MANUAL
Chapters 1 through 18 of this manual provide the operator of the Challenger 300 with a basic description of the aircraft
operating systems from the cockpit controls and indicators to the actuating mechanisms in the systems. No attempt has been
made to establish a specific standard aircraft due to the numerous customer options. Therefore, the illustrations and descrip-
tions within this manual are for a “typical” aircraft and may not match a specific aircraft. Specific serialization is shown
only when more than one version of the same system is incorporated into production on a nonretrofit basis.
NUMBERED CHANGES TO THE MANUAL
Periodically, Numbered Changes may be issued against this manual. Pages included in Numbered Changes supersede like
numbered pages in the Flight Crew Operating Manual. Each page of a Numbered Change will contain a “Change” number
located at the lower inside margin of the page. Portions of the text affected by the change are indicated by a vertical bar at
the outer margin of the page. The vertical bars may not appear on pages that contain graphs or tables. Additionally, when
a “changed” page occurs as the result of a rearrangement of material due to a change on a previous page, no vertical bar
will appear.
The List of Effective Pages establishes the current effective date of each page in the Flight Crew Operating Manual and
may be used as an instruction sheet for incorporating the latest Numbered Change into the Flight Crew Operating Manual.
Information included in the List of Effective Pages states the current “Change” number for each page and the dates of Orig-
inal issue and Numbered Changes. An asterisk (*) next to a page number indicates the page was changed, added, or deleted
by the current change.
