The document provides instructions for leveling an aircraft. It states that for general longitudinal leveling, the cabin door sill should be parallel to the waterline within 0.10 degrees. For specific longitudinal leveling, leveling points are located on the fuselage and tailcone. For general lateral leveling, a straight edge can be placed across both door sills. For specific lateral leveling, an alignment brace bar can be placed across engine mount points.

Levelling

 For general longitudinal leveling,


the cabin door sill edge is parallel within 0.10° relative waterline 100. The door sill
is used in conjunction with a spirit level to determine airplane ground attitude.
 For specific longitudinal leveling,
two forward leveling points are located on either side of the cowl at fuselage
station 99.00. One aft point is located on the tailcone access flange under the
horizontal stabilizer on the right side, at fuselage station 299.00. The leveling
points are used in conjunction with a transit to determine ground attitude.
 For general lateral leveling,
a straight edge may be placed across both cabin door sills. The door sill is used in
conjunction with a spirit level to determine airplane ground pitch.
 For specific lateral leveling,
an alignment brace bar may be placed across the upper engine mount weldment
attach points. The attach points are used in conjunction with a digital level to
determine airplane ground pitch.
JACKING
 Check the Maintenance Manual for the correct jacking equipment and procedures may be used for jacking the
Aircraft to allow functional check of the undercarriage system.
 Jacking points are located in the wings and fuselage and other points are at the nose and main undercarriages.
 Safety Considerations Safety precautions and restrictions must be noted before and during the process of jacking
as follows:
 1) Check the Maintenance Manual for the position of the C.G. either well behind or in front of the main jacking
points to bring the C.G, within safe limits. This include checking the aircraft fuel state.
 2) Check each jacking point load limit, caution not to exceed them, structural damage could occur.
 3) Stressed panels to be installed as per Maintenance Manual.
 4) Check the aircraft jacks for next servicing due date. Do not use any jack that is due for servicing. An accident,
damage to aircraft and injure someone may occur.
 5) Check the correct type of jack to be used and the serviceability of the jacks before use.
 6) Aircraft jacking area roped off and warning signs or flags posted.
 7) All jacking crews to be fully briefed on jacking procedures.
 8) Enough jacking crews for the task.
 9) All aircraft should normally be jacked inside a hangar. Jacking outside is permitted for larger aircraft provided
they are positioned nose into wind, jacking surface is level and strong to support the weight and any special
instructions stated in the AMM are observed.
 10) Maximum wind speed stated for jacking outside to be observed. Brakes to be released, chocked fore and aft
and undercarriage ground locks installed.
 11) Earth cable connected to the earth point on the aircraft with sufficient length when aircraft is jacked.
