Method of converting an airliner and airliner converted accordingly

摘要

The invention relates to a method for converting an airliner (1), equipped with a passenger cabin (2) for passenger transport, for temporary freight transport, and to an appropriately converted airliner (1). The method comprises the steps: 3) of the passenger seats (4);- installation of a surge protection (20') extending across the entire width of the passenger cabin (2) in the area of the foremost distant row of passenger seats;- introduction of drainage openings (30) in the floor (9) of the Passenger cabin (2), the distance between a newly introduced drainage opening (30) and a drainage connection (11) already present for the door sills (5') and/or cabin monuments (6) being smaller than the fuselage diameter of the commercial aircraft (1); and connecting the introduced drainage openings (30) to the existing drainage system (10) in such a way that an outflow from the drainage opening (30) to the existing drainage system (10) is ensured when the commercial aircraft (1) is flying straight ahead due to gravity alone.
