737 dv window dimension
Hi Folks,
Just wondered if anyone has accurate dimensions for the sliding side windows in the 737ng. I have the window apreture but am trying to find dimensions for the shelf, clipboard, handle overall trim etc.
cheers

Steve,
I don´t have them, BUT:
I will be on a real 738 by the end of next week, and I deem it likely I will be able to visit the flightdeck. In that case I will have a ruler with me and take dimensions for you. ´d that be ok? Would be good you sent me some pic with drawn-in lines where exactly you want the measurements.
Chris

Re: 737 dv window dimension
Ok, I did it. I flew to Berlin yesterday morning and back in the evening. Both times, I was lucky to have extremely friendly pilots to let me measure some stuff in their pit. So here is the story:
First plane I saw was a Air Tahiti Nui A340, named "Moorea". Reminded me of some wonderful VFR flying between that Atoll in the Pacific ocean and Faaáa Airport.

Here´s a collage from my pit with the Tahiti background, hehe:

Two pics of the new Berlin-Brandenburg Airport still under construction, will open in July 2012. It is located at the former east-german airport Schönefeld (EDDB). A little bit of haze over Berlin (METAR would tell you "BR").

Landing on 26R at Tegel (EDDT) while a Learjet waits for T/O clearance. Obviously, around 0900Zulu is rushhour at Tegel.

Re: 737 dv window dimension
The eyebrow windows narrow towards outside, so I measured the sun visors, which neatly place into the opening at the outside border:
width in the center: 22 cm.

maximum lower width: 25.5 cm

max upper border: 18.5 cm
http://s938.photobucket.com/albums/a...t=P1050042.jpg
center height: 21.5cm
