The Basic Design Philosophy as it Applies to all Load-Carrying Elements including a Description of Fuel Tank Design, Flap Structure and Floor Layout. FROM the structural viewpoint the aircraft had to suit the needs of the small or medium-sized airline having difficult operating conditions. Structural integrity would have to be maintained with limited servicing facilities and the aircraft must be capable of operating in remote areas from rough airstrips. Therefore, this meant that the aircraft had to have a high degree of reliability and serviceability, be of rugged construction with a long fatigue life, be designed for easy maintenance on a scheduled inspection basis, and have quick turn round times using the minimum of staff and facilities.
