INTRODUCTION
The structural design of the F2000EX EASy airplane conforms to a fail-safe structural design
concept. The airplane mainly employs high-strength aluminum alloys in its structure.
The structure design is based on fatigue and damage tolerance requirements.
The fuselage is a fully monocoque structure made of high-strength aluminum alloy. The
airplane structure also includes other high technology materials such as titanium, corrosionresistant steel, and carbon composites for primary structures, fiberglass, and Kevlar for the
secondary components.
The primary airplane structure has a structural life limit of 20,000 flights or 30,000 flight hours.
The main airplane structure consists of fuselage, wings, powerplant pylons, landing gear and
empennage.
The fuselage includes. the cockpit, the passenger cabin, the forward, centerwing and aft
tanks, the baggage compartment, the forward and aft servicing compartments.
The aft structure of the airplane supports the empennage, both engines and the APU.

FUSELAGE
The fuselage is an all-metal fully monocoque structure with circular bulkheads.
It is divided into three major sections:
-
the nose section extends the length of the radome to the forward flight deck bulkhead.
the center section is pressurized and extends from the forward flight deck bulkhead to the
baggage compartment partition. It includes the flight deck, passenger cabin, lavatory, wing
attach points, front and rear fuel tanks and baggage compartment. The baggage
compartment is pressurized and is accessible through an internal door and an external
door.
the aft section includes the rear structure which supports the empennage, servicing
compartments and APU.
The nose cone, the passenger/crew door, the baggage compartment external door and both
servicing compartment doors are locked by means of common key.

NOSE CONE
The nose cone is a composite structure. It is pressurized and can be slid forward and locked
or lifted for better access and locked in open position by a compensating rod. The nose cone
houses radar, avionics, and other optional equipment.
Pilot and component protection (electrical wirings or flight control system) behind frame 0 is
provided by shields and energy absorption, during impact on avionics equipment installed on
the chassis attached to frame 0.

material panels. The seventh window, aft of the right side, is installed in the emergency exit.
EMERGENCY EXIT
An emergency exit is located on the right side of the cabin, at the seventh aft window, over
the wing. The exit is locked in a frame and includes a quick-unlocking mechanism, which can

WINGS
The airplane relies on a double sweep wing low-mounted on the fuselage.
It is a supercritical profile wing, allowing improvement of the aerodynamic elongation (wing
aspect ratio) at 0.8 optimized cruise-Mach.
It includes machined front and rear spars sandwiched between milled upper and lower loadbearing skin panels.
Each wing is equipped with:
- one fixed leading edge,
- leading edge slat,
- three airbrake panels on the top surface,
- two trailing edge flaps,
- one aileron.
The wing box structure forms one large integral (wet) fuel tank in each wing. The rear spar of
the box supports the main landing gear and the tracks for the flaps; the front spar supports the
rollers for the leading-edge slats.

EMPENNAGE
The empennage consists of the horizontal and vertical stabilizers.
The horizontal stabilizer is mounted midway on the vertical fin, away from disrupted airflow
caused by the exhaust flows of engines No. 1 and 2.
The horizontal stabilizer is made of high technology composite materials.
The entire horizontal stabilizer lift angle is adjustable for pitch trim and actuated by an
actuator. It comprises two elevators for pitch control.
The vertical stabilizer is metal-made and uses spars and stressed-skin construction.
