Equipment The basic require d equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations (see the Certification Basis) must be installed in the aircraft. The list of all such equipment supplied by the manufacturer with each aircraft is contained in the GALP document: G280 Master Equipment List Rep. 30P000/110634/Rev. A or higher Airplane Flight Manual CAAI-approved AFM No. G280-1001-1 for aircraft with avionics software version 3.2.1 CAAI-approved AFM No. G280-1002-1 for aircraft with avionics software version 3.6 CAAI-approved AFM No. G280-1003-1 for aircraft compliant with FADEC software version V2G (production modification G25-10044 or associated SB 280-76-128) Service Information Service bulletins, repair instructions (letters, drawings, specifications, forms used for transmitting repair descriptions, etc.), structural repair manuals, airplane flight manuals, vendor manuals, and overhaul and maintenance manuals that are published in the English language and indicate applicability to the U.S. approved type design included in this Type Certificate and that include a statement that the document is Civil Aviation Authority of Israel (CAAI) approved, are accepted by the FAA and are considered FAA approved. These approvals pertain to type design only. A61NM 6 NOTES: NOTE 1: Weight and balance: A current weight and balance report, including a list of equipment included in certificated empty weight and loading instructions when necessary must be provided for each aircraft at the time of original certification. The certificated basic empty weight and corresponding center of gravity location must include the total engine oil, hydraulic fluid and unusable fuel. NOTE 2: Airplane operation must be in accordance with a CAAI approved Airplane Flight Manual. All placards required by the AFM, operating rules, and the certification basis must be installed in the appropriate locations. NOTE 3: Maintenance Program, including Service Life Limits and Required Maintenance/Inspections/Reporting: Chapter 5 -10-10 of the Gulfstream G280 Maintenance Manual, part number G280 -1001-3, basic issue, dated August 24, 2012 contains the Airworthiness Limitations Section required by 14 CFR part 25 appendix H25.4. Later revisions to the Chapter 5 -10-10 must be approved prior to incorporation into the maintenance program of airplanes operated under the type certificate. The Chapter 5 -10-10 includes the following components: • Life limited components are listed in the Tables 4 and 5. • The mandatory systems certification maintenance requirements, raised from the safety analysis, are listed in the Table 6. • The fuel tank system airworthiness limitations are listed in the Table 6. • The fuel tank system critical design configuration control limitations (CDCCLs) are listed in the Table 7. Additionally, the FAA has concluded that the occurrence of any uncontrollable high -thrust failure condition, or any of the associated causal failures listed in Chapter 05-10-10 of the G280 Maintenance Manual, may endanger the safe operation of an airplane, and hence are reportable under Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations 121.703(c), 125.409(c), and 135.415(c). NOTE 4: The type design defined by GALP drawings 30P000999900 -501 Revision A and report 30P000/120060 Revision New includes approved seating for pilot and copilot only, and has peculiar provisions and limitations linked to this limited occupancy. A forward observer seat is not included in the approved type design. Modifications intended to expand occupancy provisions to other than pilot and copilot seating approved under the TC must be approved. Certification guidance for interior installations is provided in GALP report 30P090/060643 Rev. A or higher “G280 Certification Specification for the Green Aircraft Completion Center Interface.” In addition to occupancy considerations noted above, compliance to 14 CFR 25.809(a) was found: (a) for the over wing exit by using both the window in the exit and the window immediately forward of the exit. It isn’t possible to view the likely area of evacuee ground contact from the over wing exit window therefore the window immediately forward of the exit was used for this purpose. No items may be installed between the over wing exit and the window immediately forward of the over wing exit that could cause an obstruction. Questi ons regarding a proposed installation in this area must be coordinated with the TC issuing office. ( b ) for the Main Entry Door (MED) exit by using the left hand (LH) forward -most cabin window which is immediately aft of and adjacent to the MED. No items may be installed that could cause an obstruction of this window, unless alternative viewing means are approved. Questions regarding a proposed installation in this area must be coordinated with the TC issuing office. NOTE 5: The G280 model incorporates integrated avionics systems using software-based line replaceable units (LRUs) which share a digital transmission bus. Modification to the LRU software or alteration of the LRU interface could adversely affect the airworthiness of the certified product. LR U software configurations approved under the TC are defined in GALP Document 30P8000005 Rev.W, “TOP ELECT.& AVIONIC PART LIST BASIC FINAL ASSY.” Changes to the integrated avionics system must be approved. 7 A61NM NOTE 6: G280 airplane serial numbers 2003 through 2009 were imported into the U.S. under the provisional TC issued March 1, 2012. These serial number airplanes did not conform to the FAA -approved type design definition at the time of import. Eligibility for a standard certificate of airworth iness on these airplanes requires a determination of conformity to the type design definition approved under the FAA TC. The modifications necessary to bring these airplanes from the exported configuration to the FAA TC type design configuration are described in a Task Transfer Reports (TTR) prepared for each serial number airplane, according to the G280 GALP PTC to TC Configuration Management Plan, IAI Document Number 30P002/120376, Revision A, dated July 26, 2012. NOTE 7: Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) LTD., Ben Gurion International Airport 70100, ISRAEL, is licensed by GULFSTREAM AEROSPACE LP to manufacture and obtain Airworthiness Certificates for the aircraft models listed in this Type Certificate Data Sheet. NOTE 8: GALP letter CAAI/11140/BM, dated July 18, 2011 provides notification of a model designation change from G250 to G280. Some FAA special conditions, exemptions, and equivalent safety finding memorandums issued prior to this date include the G250 model desig nation but are fully applicable to the Model Gulfstream G280. NOTE 9: In accordance with the FAA Decision contained in Time -limited Exemption No. 10612 for 14 CFR Section 25.981(a)(3): Fuel Tank Ignition Prevention, no aircraft may operate after June 30, 2014 unless production modification G25 -10706 or its associated service bulletin 280 -57-036, and production modification G25-20047 or its associated service bulletin 280-57-071 are incorporated. NOTE 10: In accordance with the FAA Decision contained in Time-limited Exemption No. 10613A from certain engine installation operational limitation and engine indication provisions: no aircraft may operate after December 31, 2015 unless production modification G25-10022 or its associated service bulletin 280-30-017, and production modification G25 -20061 or its associated service bulletin 280- 76-111 are incorporated. NOTE 11: In accordance with the FAA Decision contained in Time-limited Exemption No. 10408A for 14 CFR Section 25.901(c): Uncontrollable High Thrust Failure Conditions, production aircraft starting from aircraft Serial Number 2110 are equipped with the approved amended type design (production modification G25 -10054) which satisfies the conditions required to remove this exemption from those aircraft having incorporated production modification G25-10054. NOTE 12: In accordance with the FAA Decision contained in the Partial Grant of Exemption No. 17440, relief from certain requirements of 14 CFR Section 25.841(a)(2) allowing access to the baggage compartment up to 44,000 feet is granted for aircraft incorporating mo dification G25-10066 or it’s associated service bulletin 280-11-252. ...END...
