2.1 Description
Two turbo-fan, long range, twin-aisle, large category airplane
For the A350-900, the minimum required cabin crew number established during the aircraft
certification process is 8 (2 per exit pair), irrespective of the Maximum Operational Passenger
Seating Capacity (MOPSC).
The above minimum cabin crew numbers are those demonstrated by the type certificate holder. A
lower number is acceptable in the case of specific cabin layouts if documented in an EASA approved
major design change or Supplemental Type Certificate (STC).
If, for the installation of Type A+ emergency exits, the modifications referenced in Section 1, part
III, paragraph 2.5 are embodied, in addition a third cabin crew member must be stationed at each
installed pair of Type A+ emergency exits.

This document identifies temporary limitations due to ongoing tests. Since no failure occurred at
time of TC this specific document ALS-ETWF contains temporary limitations that will be updated
depending on test progress or deleted when tests are successfully completed. In case of failure, the
failed item will be assessed for introduction in the ALS Part 4 at its demonstrated life limit.
For each item, the recorded progress of the ongoing test is sufficiently ahead of the anticipated
