Certification Basis CAR 4b dated December, 1953, Amendments 4b-1 and 4b-2 thereto; the special
conditions and provisions of Amendments 4b-3, 4b-4 and 4b-6 listed in Attachment A to
CAA letter of October 21, 1957, and the provisions of Item 2 of Special Civil Air
Regulation No. SR-422. CA letters to Lockheed Aircraft Corporation dated January 22,
1957 and January 22, 1958, relative to emergency exits and oxygen requirements
respectively provide the basis in regard to these items.
Based on 14 CFR § 21.17(a) for new type certificates (TCs), (or 14 CFR § 21.101(g) for
changes to TCs, applicable provisions of 14 CFR part 26 are included in the certitication
basis. For any future 14 CFR part 26 amendments, the holder of the TC must
demonstrate compliance with the applicable sections.
Page 7 of 9 4A22
Type Certificate No. 4A22 issued August 22, 1958.
Application for Type Certificate dated November 11, 1955..
Compliance with the ditching requirements has been demonstrated.
Compliance has been found for the following regulations: 14 CFR § 26.43 and 26.45,
(Amdt. No. 26-0 through 26-3).
Production Basis Production Certificate No. 600
Equipment The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations
(see Certification Basis) must be installed in the aircraft for certification. Approved
equipment is shown in the Master Equipment list, Lockheed Report No. 12897.
Service information Lockheed "Electra" Structural Repair Manual, is FAA approved. Service Bulletins and
other service information, when FAA approved, will carry a statement to that effect.
NOTE 1. Current weight and balance report including list of equipment included in certificated empty weight,
and loading instructions, must be provided for each aircraft at the time of original certification. See
Approved "Weight and Balance Data" (Lockheed Report No. 12944) for list of approved items of
(b) The airplane must be loaded so that the C.G. is within the specified limits at all times, with the effects
of fuel use, gear retraction, and movement of crew and passengers from their assigned positions being
considered (retraction of the main and nose gears causes the C. G. to move forward; a value of 175,000
in. Ib. is a satisfactory approximation of the change in moment for all approved wheel items). At
takeoff, the airplane shall be loaded so that, due to fuel use, the C.G. cannot move forward of 15%
MAC. A 33% aft C.G. limit (gear retracted) for cruising flight may be used when the effect of
passenger and crew movements from their assigned positions has been taken into account.
(c) "Unusable Fuel and System Oil" and all-hydraulic fluid must be included in the certificated empty weight.
Unusable Fuel is that quantity of fuel in the system and in the tanks which is unavailable to the
engines under critical flight conditions as defined in CAR 4b.416. This unusable fuel includes the
"system fuel" which is defined as the quantity required to fill the system and tanks to the tank outlet
level when the airplane is in the ground level attitude. The total amount of fuel is as follows:
Model No. *Usable Fuel Unusable Fuel (Ib.)
188A or 188C 36,985 1b. (5520 gal.) 266
188A or 188C
with extended inner tank 43,684 Ib. (6520 gal.) 266
The volume (gallons) of the fuel tank is the size required to contain the weight of fuel shown only when the fuel
density is 6.7 #/gallon. Variations of the fuel density must be accounted for when loading fuel so that the
minimum fuel weight versus takeoff weight is properly provided. Also, the maximum permissible quantity of
fuel for full tank takeoff is the weight of fuel shown in the "maximum fuel quantity" tables of this Data Shect.
System Oil is that amount of oil required to fill the oil system and tanks to the tank outlets to the engines. The
oil tank capacities shown in this specification include only the usable oil for which the tanks are placarded.
Dipstick readings indicate the amount of usable oil.
Model No. Usable Oil (Ib.) System Oil (Ib.)
188A or 188C 243.2 97.4
(d) Fuel dumping. When fuel dump valaves are installed per NOTE 3, the amount of usable fuel, over and
above the unusable fuel remaining after dumping, is as follows:
Gallons Remaining in Tanks
Model 1&4 2&3 Total
188A or 188C 135 each 112 each 494 gallons
(e) Fuel loading and usage.
(1) Fuel must be distributed and used in a manner that will permit compliance with the lateral
balance limitations in the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual.
4A22 Page 8 of 8
(2) For minimum fuel at any takeoff weight, refer to the minimum fuel required chart in the pertinent
FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual.
(3) For landing, the fuel quantities must not exceed the following:
Tanks 1 and 4: 6,700 lb. each
Total fuel in tanks 1 and 2: 13,400 lb.
Total fuel in tanks 3 and 4: 13.400 lb.
(4) Phillips PFA-55MB or anti-icing additive to Specification MIL-1-27686E may be used if concen-
tration to airplane does not exceed 0.1% by volume. No fuel system anti-icing credit is allowed.
NOTE 2. Deleted.
NOTE 3. Fuel dump valves must be installed for operation of the airplane at weights in excess of maximum landing
weight. Refer to FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual for limitations and cautionary procedure to be
observed during the dumping of fuel.
NOTE 4. Radio Restriction:
Due to coupling effects between the VHF navigation system and the No. 1 VHF communications system,
resulting interference may adversely affect the VHF navigation system whenever transmitting on so called
spurious response frequencies. * VHF navigation information is satisfactory only when the No. 1 VHF
communications transmissions do not adversely interfere with the VHF navigation output to indicating
instruments and coupled autopilot.
Any superheterodyne type receiver will have some spurious response frequencies. In the Wilcox type 706A
VHF navigation receiver an offending response appears at seven (7) megacycles above the selected
frequency. This means, for example, that when 111.0 mc has been selected on the NAV receiver,
transmissions on 118 mc with VHF No. 1 will result in interference. Any model receiver with less than
approximately 90 decibels spurious response rejection characteristic may be similarly affected if a response
frequency appears within the navigation band (108-118 mc).
NOTE 5. For Air Carrier operations above 25,000 ft. the aircraft must be equipped with the following:
(1) Approved oxygen masks and installation. The stowage of the masks must be such that
a mask is immediately available to each occupant and the stowage location is to be indicated by a
placard. (Lockheed Drawing No. 8933121 shows a typical approved installation.)
(2) Deleted.
NOTE 6. Issuance of Airworthiness Directive Note 60-9-3 on March 25, 1960, imposed speed restrictions and
other limitations on all 188 aircraft. These limitations are removed with the incorporation of changes to the
airplane per Lockheed Service Bulletins Nos. 88/SB-500 and 88/SB-453 and Airworthiness Directive Note
60-21-1 as indicated in revision to Airworthiness Directive Note 60-9-3 made effective
December 31, 1960. Engines modified to incorporate the six mount installations per NOTE 15c of Engine
Specification No. E-282 are required by Service Bulletin No. 88/SB-500.
NOTE 7. The approved manufacturer's model number is 188A. In Revision 10 of this data sheet, all reference to
Model 188A-08 has been revised to read 188A.
