AircraftLayout Index

Summary.

This page allows you to create a drawing that illustrates the layout of an aircraft. The drawing is a top down view of the aircraft cabin detailing the location and type of galleys, restrooms, cupboards, overhead bins and seats. The diagram can also include free text and details of exit doors.

Once a basic aircraft structure is created, the different types of storage areas (e.g. galleys, cupboards, seats etc.) can be dragged onto and moved around the aircraft fuselage using a friendly and intuitive drag and drop interface.

The Screenshot below is an example of the main layout editor page.

Within this page you can drag things such as galleys and seats onto the aircraft and move them around, you can also add text. A detailed explanation of creating and editing aircraft layouts is contained further down within this document.

If this data is not created you will get an error when trying to access the drawing canvas, the example below shows a typical error message
