GENERAL
The design of the B737 NG (Next Generation) is based on the B737 Classic
family:
Boeing 737-300/-400/-500.
The Boeing 737 NG program was launched in June 1993, starting with the
B737−700 (22cm (9in) longer than the original B737−300 and a seating up to
149).
The B737−800 project was launched in September 1994 and is based on the
B737−400 but is significantly longer at 39.4m (129ft 6in) and seats up to 189.
The −800 has been available with winglets since May 2001. These reduce
aerodynamic drag thereby reducing fuel consumption by up to 7%.
The B737−600 was the third of the NG’s to be built and started in March 1995
and originated as the B737−500 with a similar length fuselage, seating
between 108−132.
Boeing began work on the stretched B737−900 in April 1997 and opted to use
the same (-800) emergency exit layout, with 4 main exit doors and 4 overwing
exits, thereby still restricting the maximum passenger load to 189.
FLIGHT DECK
INTRODUCTION
The captain‘s instrument panel is the P1 panel. The P1 panel has these
textures:
Left outboard display unit
Left inboard display unit
Display switching module
Clock
Autoflight status annunciator
Conditioned air outlet controls
Lighting controls tor the captain
Master dim and test switch
Yaw damper indicator.
The display switching modules let the pilots show different display formats on
the inboard and lower display units.
CAPTAIN'S PANEL
The first officer‘s Instrument panel is the P3 panel. The P3 panel is almost the
same as the P1. The P3 panel also has these features:
Ground proximity module
Brake pressure indicator.
The center instrument panel is the P2 panel. The P2 panel has these items:
Engine control module
Antiskid and autobrake switches and tights
Landing gear lever and position indicators
Upper center display unit
Standby instruments
GLARESHIELD PANEL
The glareshield panel is the P7 panel. The P7 panel contains these panels:
Mode control panel (MCP)
EFIS control panels
Master caution annunciations
Fire warning light.
The mode control panel is redesigned with different switches. The MCP uses
integrated LED light switch assemblies. This redesign improves the reliability
of the mode control panel.
The EFIS control panels are on the glareshield panel for easier access by the
pilots.
These control panels are similar to the Boeing 747−400 and 777 EFIS control
panels.
GLARESHIELD
The forward electronic panel is the P9 panel. The P9 panel contains these
displays:
Lower center display unit
Control display units.

General There are five standard equipment racks. These are the E1, E2, E3, E4, and
E5 racks.
Electronic equipment is in a compartment below the main cabin floor, aft of
the nose wheel well. On the ground, you enter this electronic equipment (EE) Shelf assemblies have equipment mounts, interconnected wiring, and

Dimensions are included for the wing, ailerons, flaps, horizontal stabilizer
surfaces, vertical stabilizer surfaces and body. Areas are included for the wing

Major zone 200 contains the top half of the fuselage but does not include
section 48. Major zone 200 includes these subzones:
Subzone 210 - Flight Compartment; Subzone 220 - Section 41; Subzone 230 -
Section 43; Subzone 240 - Section 44; Subzone 250 - Section 46; Subzone
260 - Section 47
Each subzone is divided into zones that are identified with the first two
numbers of the subzone followed by a number that is not zero.
Access doors and panels in a zone are identified by the zone number and a
two or three letter suffix.
This alphanumeric label is different for each access door or panel.
Make sure the airplane is parked in the most level position available.
Attach a plumb bob and chord in the right main wheel well to the bracket that
shows the words „LEVEL HERE“.
The bracket is directly above the leveling scale.
The plumb bob chord must be on the outboard side (decal side) of the
support bracket.
The plumb bob must be clear of the target by less than 1/8 inch.
Examine the position of the plumb bob when it does not move.
If the plumb bob is not in the zero position on the leveling scale, make the
airplane level.
LEVELING
General
The airplane is supplied with one lateral and one longitudinal inclinometer, and
a plumb bob leveling scale, as leveling indicators.
The inclinometers and plumb bob leveling scale are on the keel beam near the
rear of the left main wheel well and the front of the right main wheel well.
For small adjustments to make the airplane level, the landing gear shock struts
are inflated or deflated as necessary. For larger adjustments, the airplane
must be lifted on jacks.

operation instructions, servicing instructions, safety precautions, rescue
instructions, and escape instructions.
There are few groups of placards and markings (to be included in the
