“December 22, 2011”

Purpose / Discussion Continued: This service change revision moves the activation of
CPDLC functionality to a separate ASC (071) to permit
individual purchase for those operators not opting to
purchase the Enhanced Navigation package. In
addition, CPDLC activation has been incorporated into
initial phase manufacturing beginning with aircraft serial
number 4230; therefore, the modification instructions,
pricing and parts list have been revised to address
these changes. The intent is that all aircraft having
Enhanced Navigation will be equipped with CPDLC and
fully FANS 1/A compliant.
Step C. instructions apply to aircraft 4001 – 4229
performing initial installation. ASC 071 – CPDLC-FANS
1/A is a concurrent requirement for this effectivity group
and is included in the price of this ASC.
Step D. instructions apply to aircraft 4230 – subsequent
which have CPDLC functionality activated during initial
phase manufacturing. There is no concurrent
requirement for this effectivity group.

Description / Man-Hours This service change loads new software and installs
Required Per Aircraft: new or upgraded:
 2 GPS antennas (4001 – 4193)
 2 GPS modules (4001 – sub)
 1 CMC module (4001 – 4193)
 3 IRUs (4001 – 4229)
Step C. will require approximately 38 man-hours for kit
1 or approximately 26 man-hours for kit 2 installation.
Step D. will require approximately 12 man hours for this
installation.
Aircraft having ASC 059 or 059A require no further
action and should return the service reply card
marked “previously complied with”. This service
change revision supersedes all previous versions
of ASC 059 and is now reissued as ASC 059B.
