 (c) The weight of system fuel and oil as defined below and hydraulic fluid, all of which must be included in  
  the airplane empty weight, is listed in Convair Report ZM-30-069, "Master Equipment List, Models 30  
  and 30A." 
 
  System Fuel:  The weight of all fuel required to fill all lines and tanks up to the zero fuel point on the fuel  
  gages in the most critical flight altitude.  This includes the unusable tank fuel as defined by CAR 4b.416. 
 
  System Oil Including Usable:  The weight of oil remaining in the engine, constant speed drive, thrust  
  reverser, tanks and lines after subtracting the usable and reverser reserve oil from the total capacity.  These  
  values are noted under "Oil Capacity" and must be added to the empty weight of the airplane. 
 
 (d) The "unusable" fuel, including drainable and undrainable quantities, is the amount of fuel in the tanks  
  which is unavailable to the engines under critical flight conditions as defined by CAR 4b.416 and may be  
  obtained by taking the difference between "total refuel" and "usable" tank capacities shown under "Fuel  
  Capacity." This "unusable" fuel is included in System Fuel as indicated in 1(c) above. 
 
 (e) Fuel loading and usable procedures are dictated by structural design and to maintain airplane C.G. within  
  approved limits.  Refer to Convair Report ZW-30-029-, the airplane weight and balance report for the  
  Model 30 and 30A for loading, takeoff and landing fuel distribution limitations. 
 
 (f) Fuel Jettison:  Fuel jettisoning must be available for operation of the airplane in excess of the maximum  
  landing weight.  Refer to FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual for limitations to be observed during  
  fuel jettison operation.  The unjettisonable fuel must be included in the airplane landing weight and the  
  amount of usable fuel remaining in the tanks after complete jettisoning is as follows: 
 
    Model 30 
    All Versions Model 30A 
    Model 30A -6 & -8 
    -5 Version  Versions 
   Outboard tanks (1 and 4) 2452 lb. ea. 2462 lb. ea. 
   Inboard tanks  (2 and 3) 2600 lb. ea. *2786 lb. ea. 
 
  *Applicable to Model 30A-5 Version when modified in accordance with Model 30 Service  
  Bulletin 990 S.B. No. 28-12. 
 
  Fuel weights are based on 6.7 lb./gal. 
 
NOTE 2. Reserved. 
 
NOTE 3. All replacement seats (crew, passenger and lounge), although they may comply with TSO-C39, must also be 
demonstrated to comply with CAR 4b.358(c).  Other installations, such as berths, buffets, compartments or 
items of mass which could create a hazard to the safety of passengers and crew must also be demonstrated to 
meet the same requirements. 
 
NOTE 4. The 30-5, 30-6, 30-8, 30A-5, 30A-6, 30A-6AASC, and 30A-8 are versions of the basic Model 30 and 30A, 
respectively, the certification basis for which is Type Certificate No. 4A30. These dash numbers were selected 
by Convair primarily for contractual and clerical purposes and should not be considered to define different 
models of airplanes.  One version may be converted to another by incorporating pertinent required equipment 
and complete conformity with corresponding approved drawings. 
 
  It should be noted that the identification plate in the cockpit identifies the specific airplane version and that 
different airplane flight manuals, primarily the result of different autopilot installations, air-conditioning 
system, and electrical system, are applicable.  Accordingly, when converting from one version to another, the 
identification plate must be suitably revised.  The airplane flight manual pertinent to the new version must also 
be installed. 
 
  Model 30 airplanes may be modified to like versions of Model 30A airplanes in accordance with Addendum I 
to General Dynamics/Convair Report ZM-30-070, dated September 28, 1962, "FAA Certification Drawing 
Index.  When Model 30 airplanes are modified to model 30A airplanes, the "Nameplate" must be revised to 
indicate Model 30A, and the date of modification must be shown.
