EXTERNAL DOORS
External doors are installed to provide for baggage loading and mainte-
nance access . The nose area forward of the cockpit is accessible through
four doors - two on the left side and two on the right side . The tailcone
is accessible through the tailcone access door and aft baggage door, both
located on the left side . Two doors provide access to the single-point
pressure
refueling
system
.
These doors are located side by side on the
right side of the fuselage beneath the right engine .
Access to
the external
servicing' provisions for the toilet is through a door on the underside of
the fuselage below the potty .
EXT'DOORS LIGHT
Illumination of the red EXT DOORS warning light, located on the
glareshield
annunciator panel, indicates the tailcone access door and/or
the aft baggage door is not properly
closed and latched .
The primary
purpose of the light is to indicate a door open condition prior to takeoff .
If the doors were properly latched prior to takeoff and the light illumi-
nates
in flight,
the most probable cause is a switch failure .
TAILCONE BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT
The tailcone baggage compartment is accessed through a door located
under the left engine pylon . A slight pressure differential (0 .25 psi) is
maintained to prevent fluids
from entering the compartment . The pres-
sure is provided by ram air entering the
dorsal
inlet
. An outflow valve,
located on the top of the baggage compartment, controls the pressure .
