Introduction

Document Content and Organization

The MEL is divided into six sections as follows:
SECTION 0 - CONTENTS AND INTRODUCTION
SECTION 1 - EIS/MEL CROSS REFERENCE
This section provides a listing of Electronic Instrument System (EIS) messages for quick reference between
these messages and MEL items which may provide dispatch relief. The message list is for guidance only and
may not cover all possible combinations of system faults which may cause a particular message to display.
SECTION 2 - MEL
This section contains all items from the current MEL. Items are given in the same sequence that they appear in
the MMEL. For ease of use, page numbering uses the appropriate ATA Number assigned to MEL items as
follows:

2-21-XX-XX.X

Page numerical sequence

ATA Number (21 - Air Conditioning)
MEL Section No.

SECTION 3 - CDL
This section contains the various CDL items, plus information on system effects and enroute performance
effects, as appropriate.
SECTION 4 - FERRY
This section is provided for dispatch with selected configuration deviations, for which revenue operation is not
allowed by the MEL or CDL, when it is necessary to fly the aircraft back to a maintenance base for repairs.
Information provided in this section is for advance planning purposes only, and the ferry flight configurations
included in this section only consider the specific defined configuration and conditions outlined therein.
Differences in configuration or conditions can invalidate performance corrections. Flight Operations is
available to provide technical guidance for obtaining local approval for ferry flights on a case-by-case basis.
SECTION 5 - MISCELLANEOUS
This section is available for items and information that do not fit into the categories covered by sections 2, 3
and 4 of this manual.

Introduction
Introduction

Introduction
The MD-11 is equipped with an alerting function that is a subsystem within the Electronic Instrument System
(EIS). The alerting system provides aircraft fault and status information to the flight crew. Alerts are presented
on the Engine and Alert Display (EAD) and on each system synoptic and the STATUS page of the Systems
Display (SD). The alerting function provides various levels of system condition alerts and is listed as follows:

Level Type Description

3 >Red Box Red boxed alert on EAD that indicates emergency operational conditions
requiring immediate crew awareness and immediate corrective or
compensatory action. The red MASTER WARNING lights on the
glareshield will illuminate.
2 Amber Box Amber boxed alert on EAD that indicates abnormal operational system
conditions requiring immediate crew awareness and subsequent corrective
or compensatory action. The amber MASTER CAUTION lights on the
glareshield will illuminate.
1 Amber alert Amber alert requiring crew awareness and may require maintenance prior
to dispatch, a logbook entry, or confirmation of desired system
configuration. The amber MASTER CAUTION lights on the glareshield
may illuminate.
1 Amber alert Amber alert defining action taken by the Automatic controller. Crew
awareness but no crew action required. Logbook entry may be required.
1 Maintenance Alert only on SD STATUS page (MAINT category) that indicates the
presence of a fault in an operational system and identified by CFDS
interrogation. Cue switch or the MASTER CAUTION lights will not
illuminate.
0 Status alert Cyan alert on EAD indicating operational or systems status information.

In this section, alerts are grouped into eight categories:

ENGine, HYDraulic, ELECtric, AIR, FUEL, CONFIGuration, MISCellaneous and STATUS.
Note that this order coincides with the order of the cue switch/lights on the System's Display Control Panel and
the order in which each system's alerts appear on the STATUS page of the SD.
The MD-11 dispatch concept requires the crew to review the STATUS page prior to flight to determine aircraft
dispatchability. Any alerts appearing on the STATUS page affect dispatchability. The fault causing the alert
must be isolated; then the aircraft may be dispatched to the extent allowed by the MEL.
Some level 1 alerts are Maintenance alerts that are displayed on the STATUS page of the EIS display panel
under the Maint heading. Maintenance alerts will not illuminate a cue switch/light or the Master Caution lights.
A Maintenance alert on the EIS indicates the presence of a system fault that can be identified by the Central
Fault Display System (CFDS) interrogation. The systems are designed to be fault tolerant however, for any
Maintenance alert, the MEL must be verified for dispatch purposes.
This section provides a quick reference between the alerting function of the EIS and the MMEL. The
information in this section is intended for guidance only and may not include all combinations of alerts,
consequences, fault indications or fault isolations.
It should not be assumed that dispatch relief is automatically available for every message with a MEL item
cross-referenced. The provisions of each MEL item must always be complied with whenever that item is

MAR 20/06 1-01-00.0

Introduction EIS/MEL Cross Reference

dispatched inoperative, and this section alone should not be used as any type of authority to dispatch the
aircraft.
Note that some alerts are non-dispatchable however, an MEL cross-reference may be listed to notify
maintenance of a possible work around (e.g., swap LRUs) or to identify as to the extent a system must be
repaired in order to permit dispatch.
Dispatch procedures given for a particular MEL item will often (but not always) include some means of
clearing the displayed alert prior to dispatch while other dispatch procedures given may state which alert will
be displayed with a particular MEL item.
This section does not address information provided by the Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS). All data
accessible via the CURRENT FAULTS, FAULT REVIEW, and the SENSOR READOUT functions is to
considered maintenance information that assists in fault isolation but which does not, by itself, determine
dispatchability. Such information should be addressed in accordance with the operator's approved
maintenance program. Dispatchability is to be based on any fault indications provided by the STATUS page of
the alerting system, other aural or visual indicating systems, or pilot squawks.
The alerts as listed in this document reflect MD-11 EIS DEU software load -910.

2. Introduction
a. The Minimum Equipment List (MEL) is based on the MD11 Master Minimum Equipment List
(MMEL) and Configuration Deviation List (CDL). It takes into consideration KLM's aircraft
configuration(s), operational requirements, routes being flown and requirements set by the JAA.
b. The, by the authorities approved, MEL permits dispatch of the aircraft for revenue flights with
certain items or components inoperative provided an acceptable level of safety is maintained by
use of appropriate operational or maintenance procedures, by transfer of the function to another
operating component, or by reference to other instruments or components providing the required
information.
c. For non-commercial flights specific provisions have been established with the authorities. Flight
Technical may grant permission for the use of those provisions.
d. The MEL will not deviate from any Airworthiness Directive (AD) or any other Mandatory
Requirement and will not be less restrictive than the MMEL.
e. The MEL is intended to permit operation with inoperative equipment for a period of time until
rectification's can be accomplished. Rectification's are to be accomplished at the earliest
opportunity.
f. MEL conditions and limitations do not relieve the Commander from determining that the aircraft
is in a fit condition for safe operation with the specified items inoperative.
g. The provisions of the MEL are applicable until the aircraft commences the flight, with the
following exception:
During engine start and prior to takeoff, any alert message requires accomplishment of the
appropriate non-normal procedure. Upon completion of the procedure and prior to takeoff, the
MEL should be consulted to determine if MEL relief is available.
Any decision to continue a flight following a failure or unserviceability, which becomes apparent

MD11 Minimum Equipment List Section 2
Definitions & Preamble MEL

after the commencement of a flight, must be the subject of pilot judgement and good airmanship.
The Commander may continue to make reference to and use of the MEL as appropriate.
h. As part of the MEL, operational and maintenance procedures are published. Both are based on the
procedures supplied by Boeing and supplemented with KLM's standard operational and
maintenance procedures. Operational procedures are to be accomplished in planning for and/or
operating with the associated item inoperative. Maintenance procedures are to be accomplished
prior to operating with the associated item inoperative.
i. For maintenance instructions the MEL maintenance procedures are the primary source,
supplementary information can be found in the maintenance manual.
Whenever the instructions between the MEL maintenance procedures and the Maintenance
Manual are conflicting, contact Maintenance Control Centre (OCC/TO) for advice.
j. All items, which are related to the airworthiness of the aircraft and not listed in the MEL, are
automatically required to be operative.
k. Whenever doubts exists on dispatch conditions, contact Flight Technical.
l. For dispatch with airframe and/or engine parts missing, a Configuration Deviation List (CDL) is
included.
m. Unless specifically permitted, an inoperative item may not be removed from the aircraft
3. Definitions
a. “Calendar Day” means a 24 hour period from midnight to midnight based on UTC.
b. “Day” operations is any flight conducted from the point of takeoff to landing between 30 minutes
before sunrise and 30 minutes after sunset.
c. “Day of Discovery” means the calendar day that a malfunction was recorded in the Aircraft
Technical Log (ATL).
d. “Deactivated” and “Secured” means that the specified component must be put into an acceptable
condition for a safe flight.
e. “Equipment” means item, function, component or system.
f. "Flight" means the period of time between the moment when an aircraft begins to move by its own
means, for the purpose of preparing for take-off, until the moment the aircraft comes to a complete
stop on its parking area, after the subsequent landing (and no subsequent take-off).
g. "Flight Day" means a 24-hour period, starting at 00.01 UTC on the calendar day following the day
of discovery of the deficiency, during which at least one flight is initiated for the affected aircraft.
h. "Icing Conditions" means an atmospheric environment that may cause ice to form on the aircraft
(structural) or in the engine(s) (induction).
i. "Inoperative" means a system and/or component malfunction to the extent that it does not
accomplish its intended purpose and/or is not consistently functioning normally within its
operating limit(s) or tolerance(s).
j. "Considered Inoperative" means that item must be treated as though it were inoperative.
k. "Operating hour" is the time in hours between the moment an engine starts until the engine
shutdowns.
l. “Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC)” are meteorological conditions, expressed in terms of
visibility, distance from cloud, and ceiling, equal to or better than the minimum visibilities for

4. Repair Time Category

a. All MEL items are categorized A, B, C, or D to define the time interval in which the item shall be
rectified. The time interval expires at 23.59 UTC after which the aircraft may not be operated
unless extension has been approved.
b. The time intervals are defined as follows:
Category A: Items in this category shall be rectified within the time interval specified in the
remarks column of the MEL item. For time intervals specified in “flight days”, the
day the malfunction was recorded in the AML is excluded. For all other time
intervals (flights, flight legs, cycles, hours etc.) repair tracking begins at the point
when the malfunction is deferred.
Category B: Items in this category shall be rectified within three (3) consecutive calendar days
following the day of discovery
Category C: Items in this category shall be rectified within ten (10) consecutive calendar days
following the day of discovery.
Category D: Items in this category shall be rectified within one hundred and twenty (120)
consecutive calendar days following the day of discovery.
c. When unable to meet the repair time interval of category B or C items, Maintenance Control
Center (OCC/TO) may after approval by Flight Technical extend the interval once up to the MEL
repair time category of the applicable item, in which it has to be rectified. An Extension Approval
Form must be completed and a copy must be stored in the Aircraft Technical Log (ATL). The
CAA-NL shall be notified by Flight Operations within ten days when an extension is granted.
Rectification is accomplished at the earliest opportunity.
d. Engineering and Maintenance Department has the authority to approve maintenance procedures
which deviate from instructions in maintenance procedures mentioned in the KLM MEL. An
Engineering Authorization form, signed by an Approved Inspector, will be issued describing what
the deviation from the instructions is and what the substantiation for this deviation is.
The approved maintenance instruction form, with reference to the applicable Engineering
Authorization, will be added to the applicable ATL slip.
e. The following items are categorized X for maintenance planning reasons:
· Items not listed in the MEL and not influencing the airworthiness of the aircraft.
· Items with a defect, which do not influence the function and/or operation of the applicable item.
· Items with deficiencies within the allowable maintenance limitations.
No time interval is specified for items in this category.
5. Special Procedures for Operations Outside the scope of the MEL
Statement
CAA-NL has granted KLM approval to implement and introduce the Special Procedures for
“Operations outside the scope of the MEL” for KLM’s fleet of MD11.

If there is no reasonable possibility to adhere to a MEL requirement for dispatch, but it would be
possible to adhere to the Master MEL, Maintenance Control Center may request Flight Technical for a
MEL deviation, strictly for the purpose to fly the aircraft concerned to a station where repair or
replacement can be made.
If it is not possible to position the aircraft by means of a single flight a number of flights is permitted,
which shall be no more than the minimum required.

APR 06/09 2-01-00.2

MD11 Minimum Equipment List Section 2
Definitions & Preamble MEL

The Commander is responsible for ensuring that the aircraft is acceptable for the intended flight (or
flights).
Operations is not allowed outside the scope of the applicable MMEL.
If a MEL deviation is granted, a Flight Technical Authorization Form, signed by an authorized person,
will be issued describing what the deviation from the instructions and what the substantiation for this
deviation is. A copy of the authorization form shall be kept in the ATL until no longer valid.
Maintenance Control Centre will send a copy of the authorization form to Flight Technical.
The CAA-NL shall be notified by Flight Operations within ten days when a deviation is granted.
Flight Operations has to take the following into consideration:
· crew situation
· stretch(es) to fly (weather/fuel)
· consequences of the relief on the procedures / systems
· combination of several different complaints
The following Flight Operations personnel is authorized to grant a MEL deviation:
a. Operations Engineer
b. Technical Pilot
c. Assistant Technical Pilot
6. Statements in Remarks or Exceptions Column
"(M)" symbol indicates a requirement for a specific maintenance procedure, which must be
accomplished prior to operation with the listed item inoperative. The Engineering Department is
responsible for these procedures. Normally these procedures are accomplished by maintenance
personnel; however crew members or other personnel may be qualified and authorized to perform
certain functions.
Maintenance personnel should accomplish procedures requiring specialized knowledge or skill, or
requiring the use of tools or test equipment. The satisfactory accomplishment of all maintenance
procedures, regardless of who performs them, is the responsibility of the operator.
Unless mentioned otherwise in the REMARKS OR EXCEPTIONS column of the MEL, a
maintenance action has to be accomplished once before the first flight under relevant MEL item (e.g., a
deactivation procedure).
"(O)" symbol indicates a requirement for a specific operations procedure, which must be accomplished
in planning for and/or operating with the listed item inoperative. Normally these procedures are
accomplished by the flight crew or cabin crew; however, other personnel may be qualified and
authorized to perform certain functions. The satisfactory accomplishment of all procedures, regardless
of who performs them, is the responsibility of the operator.
"(T)" symbol indicates that a technical deficiency telex is supplied when an aircraft is dispatched with
a technical deficiency affecting one of the following:
a. Ground handling (loading, refueling, maintenance, servicing, catering, etc.)
b. Flight planning (e.g. altitude or speed restriction)
The Aircraft Maintenance Technician (AMT) may only defer MEL items with a “(T)” symbol to the
Deferred Defect List (DDL) after contacting Maintenance Control Center (MCC).
After rectification of a deferred complaint with a “(T)” symbol, Maintenance Control Center (MCC)
has to be contacted before entering the rectification in the ATL.

2-01-00.3 APR 06/09

k
Section 2 MD11 Minimum Equipment List
MEL Definitions & Preamble

A technical deficiency telex will be sent to stations along the route. The telex may be recognized by a
standard prefix: 'Aircraft technical deficiency -'(aircraft registration, flight number and date). This will
always be sent by Maintenance Control Center (OCCTOKL). The department primarily responsible
for the contents will also be indicated, e.g. OCC/TO or SPL/NP. This technical deficiency telex or
entry in BST will be provided to the crew at Flight Operations.
When, at an outstation, advice from homebase is required by the crew, refer to the communication
protocol with Movement Control/Flight Dispatcher as per OM part A - BOM.
7. Centralized Message Systems
This aircraft is equipped with an EIS system, which provides different levels of systems information
messages (Level 3, level 2, level 1, level 0 etc). An EIS Alert Cross Reference List, published in
section 1, serves as a quick reference between the alerts and relevant MEL items, which may provide
dispatch relief.
The EIS alerts are listed in alphabetic order. The list includes the message level and a description of the
condition(s) that result in message display. The last column provides the MEL item(s) to be consulted
for dispatch relief.
8. Cockpit crew responsibilities
The Commander may decide to have allowable inoperative items corrected prior to dispatch whenever
in his judgement these items are essential to the safety of flight under the conditions prevailing at the
time.
Before dispatching an aircraft with multiple items inoperative, it must be assured that any interface or
inter-relationship between inoperative items will not result in degradation in the level of safety and/or
undue increase in crew workload.
A careful evaluation of all operational consequences for the whole route concerned should be made.
9. Maintenance crew responsibilities
The source of the failure must be known to such extent as necessary to positively identify and isolate
the affected component and/or system for which MEL relief is allowed. It must be ascertained that a
failed component or system does not adversely affect operation of other components or systems for
which no MEL relief is provided.
Every effort should be made by maintenance to correct all technical defects at the earliest opportunity
and to assure that the aircraft is released from the homebase in a fully operational condition.
Should it be impossible to correct the inoperative item prior to departure, an entry should be made on
the Deferred Defect List in the ATL, stating the MEL chapter, item number and repair time category.
The inoperative item or system should be marked INOP if not indicated otherwise.
Dispatch with an inoperative item shall not be considered if repair or replacement can be made within
the available time.
Dispatch with an Alert message displayed (Level 3, Level 2, Level 1) is not allowed, unless there is
MEL relief for the associated equipment fault or failure.
Items which have to be checked before each departure, require an entry on the action side of the
Preflight-Inspection slip in the ATL, stating applicable “maintenance action” (ref entry-number)
performed”.

1) Place left ENG HYD PUMP switch in ON position. Check that system pressure indicator
reading is between 2400 and 3500 psi on EAD (indicating that left pump is operative), then
place switch in OFF position.
2) Place right ENG HYD PUMP switch in ON position. Check that system pressure indicator
reading is between 2400 and 3500 psi on EAD (indicating that right pump is operative), then
place switch in OFF position.
G. After verifying that affected right pump is operative:
1) If the HYD PUMP __ R FAULT alert is displayed (indicating that the Pressure Low Switch is
failed in the less than 2400 psi position), shutdown ENG and disconnect the electrical
connector from the affected pump Pressure Low Switch.
2) Restart ENG and verify that the HYD PUMP __ R FAULT alert is no longer displayed on the
EAD.
NOTE: If the alert is still displayed, there is an unknown fault in the pump pressure low
indicating system, the HSC or the DEU requiring further maintenance action prior to
dispatch.
3) After Engine start, perform a Manual preflight test of associated ENG Driven Pump by
verifying system pressure is greater than 2400 psi.
4) Return HSC to Automatic mode for dispatch.
NOTE 1: The HYD PUMP R FAULT alert is displayed when the pump pressure is less than
2400 psi or when the case drain temperature is greater than 245° F (118° C). If this
alert is falsely displayed because the pump pressure low switch is inoperative in the
less than 2400 psi position, the case drain temperature greater than 245° F (118° C)
alerting function is effectively disabled. Steps G(1) through G(3) are intended to
restore the pump case drain temperature greater than 245°F (118° C) alerting
function. (Ensure that the Case Drain Temp HI switches (29-12-2) on both pumps
of affected system are operative).
NOTE 2: When Pump Pressure Low Switch is Inop, EAD, HYD PUMP __ <2800 alert, HYD
PUMP __ FAULT (Pressure Low Function) alert, and Hydraulic Systems Display
"P" Annunciator will be Inop. OVHD Fault Light (Pressure Low Function) will also
be inoperative.

MAINTENANCE (M)
1. GE Engine FADEC Faulted.
A. The GE CF6-80C2 series engines have been approved to operate with certain faults present in the
control system. The following fault conditions define the maximum operating intervals as
established by GE engine Type Certificate Data Sheet number E13NE note 18, which references
GE manual GEK 98497. The dispatchable faults assumes that the control system has no level
fault(s) at the beginning of a 1000 hour maintenance interval. At the end of the 1000 hour interval,
all level fault(s) must be corrected before further dispatch is permitted.
1) No Dispatch:
No dispatch allowed. These are faults which do not satisfy the dispatch criteria and, therefore,
must be corrected prior to dispatch.(ENG __ FADEC MAINT)
2) Short Time Dispatch:
Dispatchable with a maximum operating interval of 150 hours. This operating interval requires
a "Not to Exceed Time" since fault is indicated. (ENG __ FADEC FAULT)
3) Long Time Dispatch:
Dispatchable with a maximum operating interval not to exceed the remainder of the 1000 hour
interval. This operating interval is a fixed time interval which will be implemented by KLM’s
maintenance program.
B. Record and submit reliability monitoring data as required.

CDL General Notes

GENERAL NOTES

INTRODUCTION
The Configuration Deviation List presented in this manual is a reproduction of the FAA-approved CDL in the
Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM).

GENERAL LIMITATIONS
This Configuration Deviation List (CDL) is for operation of all Model MD-11 airplanes not having the certain
secondary airframe and engine parts listed.
The pilot in command will be notified of each operation with a missing part(s) by listing the missing part(s) in
the flight or dispatch release.
The operator will list in the aircraft logbook an appropriate notation covering the missing part(s) on each flight.
Following the loss of an additional part in flight, the airplane may not depart the airport at which it lands, until
the airplane again complies with limitations of this appendix. A ferry permit may be issued without this
compliance to allow the airplane to be flown to a point where the necessary repairs or replacement can be
made.
No more than one part for any one system OR specifically designated combinations of parts may be missing, as
listed in this appendix. If the appendix does not specifically indicate otherwise, parts from different systems
may be missing.
Performance penalties are cumulative unless specifically designated penalties for combinations of missing
parts are indicated.
Takeoff performance decrements are applicable to takeoff gross weights, which are in turn limited by structural
limit, field length, first segment climb, second segment climb, final segment climb, or takeoff flight path.
Takeoff weight penalty is applied to the takeoff weight as determined by the most restrictive criteria shown in
FCOM 4.2. When a takeoff weight penalty is imposed, determine takeoff speeds at actual operating weight
plus takeoff weight penalty. Determine all other speeds at actual operating weight.
For LINTOP, determine the cumulative CDL takeoff weight performance penalty and round it up to the value
in the table on the next page. When the appropriate MEL/CDL code is used in Lintop, the calculation includes
this performance penalty and the proper speeds are provided.
Enroute performance decrements are applicable to operations which are in turn limited by enroute, reduced
number of engines operative climb. Enroute weight penalty is applied to enroute limiting weight obtained from
the FCOM 4.3.
Landing performance decrements are applicable to landing gross weights, which are in turn limited by
structural limit, landing field length, landing climb, or approach climb. Landing weight penalty is applied to the
landing weight as determined by the most restrictive criteria shown in FCOM 4.4.
The numbering and designation of systems in this appendix is based on ATA Specification 100. The parts
within each system are identified by functional description and, when necessary, by part numbers.
