modifications for which the major changes are the following :
Major Change 5948 : Glass Cockpit
Major Change 5977 : FCU (Fuel Control Unit) fuel gauging system in
kg.
Major Change 6164 : Enhanced MPC (Multi-Purpose Computer)
Major Change 6298 : Mechanical quadrant for aileron flight surfaces.
Major Change 6368 : Cockpit integrated LED lighting system (CILLS)
ATA 25 : (Refer attached pics on cabin interiors after page 4).

cabin attendant underseat stowage and the aft cabin attendant seat.
ATA 22 :
Change from Honeywell to Thales. Architecture of the system remains
identical except :
There is no AFCS (Automatic Flight Control System) computer. It is
integrated into CACs (Core Avionics Cabinet).
All 3 Autopilot Actuators changed
ADU removed and indication are given on PFD (Primary flight Display),
AFCS control panel modified.
FD (Flight Director) bar switches replaced by two p/b on AFCS panel.
Display information on PFD and MFD (Multi Function Display).
ATA 23 :
Change from Honeywell to Thales systems;
Radio Tuning Panel replaced by MCP (Multi-function Control Panel) and
MCDU (Multipurpose Control Display Unit)
In degraded condition, i.e. if the two primary tuning means have failed,
a backup tuning through an ARINC 429 bus will still be available for
VHF1 via the IESI. This backup tuning is dedicated to VHF1 and cant
access any other radio.
System displays are on MFD.
ATA 30 :
System identical for any versions except for;
Display information on MFD and PFD

Display information on PFD and MFD
GNSS removed and its functions carried out by GPS in coordination with
FMS.
IESI (Integral Electronic Stand-by System) replaced Standby instruments,
Altimeters and IAS indicators
Radio navigation and surveillance control unit are replaced by MCP or
MCDU and display on MFD/PFD.
New NAV receiver units perform the functions for ADF, VOR, ILS and
Marker.
ADF receiver has been removed and its functions have been
amalgamated with VOR /ILS / MARKER receiver.
There is no FMC. FMS1&2 embedded in DU2 and DU4.
ATA 35 :
INDIVIDUAL OXYGEN SYSTEM FOR 100% OF THE PASSENGERS
This option consists in installing an individual oxygen system for 100% of the
passengers including oxygen modules at lavatory & cabin crew locations. This
is obtained by installing above each passenger double seat one box
containing two oxygen masks. (Refer attached pic on lavatory oxygen
module)
The box opening is automatic (and manual in case of need).
The oxygen supply is ensured through one oxygen cylinder installed in the
cockpit. Its capacity at NTPD is increased from the standard 2180 litres (77
ft3) to 3256 litres (115 ft3).
Supplementary oxygen mask boxes, are also installed in the proximity of the
front and rear attendant seat and in the lavatory.
The control of the system is performed by a three position switch Off-AutoOn installed on the oxygen panel on the flight deck overhead instrument
panel.
Rest of the systems identical for any version except display on MFD/SD pages.
