This section provides general supplemental information on optional equipment
for the MD 500 Model 369HE/HS helicopters. The information includes a list−
ing of usable optional equipment and compatibility of combined equipment on
the helicopter.
NOTE
:
Unless identified in the List of Models Effected block at the beginning of each
optional equipment operating instructions, the optional equipment is approved
for all MD 500 Model 369HE/HS helicopters.
Supplemental data is prepared and included in this section whenever the in−

ment is installed.
Be sure to include a review of the appropriate flight manual
supplemental data for type of optional equipment installed
(including STC items) as a regular part of preflight planning.
