Welcome to Gulf Coast Aeronautical's DC-10 Systems Review
In these Distance Learning Modules, we will explore various system components that are representative of the McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 Aircraft. Our baseline reference for this aircraft is the KSSU factory configuration, which has been further modified based on Northwest Airlines' engineering changes to the traditional Flight Instrumentation & Engine Information System(s).
We acknowledge that not all subsystems covered here may be installed in your fleet aircraft. However, it is essential to understand and address the system differences among DC-10-30 type certifications.
