What does DR 107 L/R refer to?

DR 107 L/R refers to the tie down points on the wings and a jacking pad. This designation is important for ground handling and maintenance operations. The tie down points are used to secure the aircraft to prevent movement due to wind or other factors, ensuring safety while on the ground. The jacking pad allows for proper support when the aircraft needs to be lifted for maintenance or inspection purposes.

Understanding the role of these components is critical for plane captains and ground crew, as proper securing and maintenance procedures significantly contribute to the overall safety and operational readiness of the aircraft. Knowledge of these points helps ensure that the aircraft can be handled safely both during ground operations and while parked on the ramp.
