salely modilications. Operational supplements are a rapid m€ans
of lransmitting inlormation not involving salety. Supplements are
issued by leletype (interim) or as printed {formal) supplements. lnterim
supplements are eilher replaced by a lormal printed supplement (wilh
a new number) or by a quick change to lhe manual. Formal
supplemenls are identilied by red letters "SS"or by black letters',OS"
around the borders of the pages.
All supplements ars numbered in sequence. A salety supplement
has the letters 'SS 'in lhe number. An operalional supplement has
the letter "S'in the number. All currenl supplements must be com-
plied with. A safety and operational supplemenl status page is in
each printed supplemenl and each change to lhis manual (pages
i and ii) to show the current slatus of suppiements and checklists.
These pages are only currenl when prepared. To be sure ol lhe latest
information checkthe index, T.O. o-'l -1 -3. The title page of lhis manual
and the title blockof each supplement show the eff ect of each change
on supplements. File supplements in lront of the manual, with the
lalest on top, regardless ol whether il is an operational supplement
or safety supplemenl.
