Maximum ACN Value – Rigid Pavement Clause Samples
The "Maximum ACN Value – Rigid Pavement" clause sets a specific upper limit on the Aircraft Classification Number (ACN) that is permitted for aircraft operating on rigid (concrete) pavement surfaces. In practice, this means that only aircraft with an ACN at or below the stated maximum are allowed to use the designated pavement, ensuring that the structural integrity of the surface is not compromised by excessive loading. This clause is essential for protecting airport infrastructure, as it prevents damage and premature wear by restricting access to aircraft that could otherwise exceed the pavement's designed load-bearing capacity.
Maximum ACN Value – Rigid Pavement. The Aircraft Classification Number (ACN) for rigid pavement having subgrade codes A through D, at the maximum taxi weight of [***]with [***]% of the load on the main gear ([***]) and with the main gear tires at a tire pressure of [***] pounds per square inch, shall not exceed the following guarantee values: Code A Code B Code C Code D [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***]
4.1 The guarantees contained in this Attachment are based on the Aircraft configuration as defined in Boeing Document [***], “787 Airplane Configuration Specification Addendum”, dated January 15, 2010, plus any changes mutually agreed to or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement to be incorporated into the original release of the Customer’s Detail Specification (hereinafter referred to as the Detail Specification). Appropriate adjustment shall be made for changes in such Detail Specification approved by the Customer and Boeing or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement which cause changes to the flight performance and/or weight and balance of the Aircraft. Such adjustment shall be accounted for by Boeing in its evidence of compliance with the guarantees.
4.2 The guarantee payloads of Paragraph 2.9.1, 2.9.3, 2.9.5, 2.9.6, 2.9.7, and 2.9.8 and the specified payloads of Paragraph 2.9.2 and 2.9.4 block fuel guarantees will be adjusted by Boeing for the effect of the following on OEW in its evidence of compliance with the guarantees:
(1) Changes to the Detail Specification or any other changes mutually agreed upon between the Customer and Boeing or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement.
(2) The difference between the seat weight allowances to be incorporated into the Detail Specification and the actual weights.
