Abstract :
Boeing 737-500 aircraft is the first narrow-body aircraft with turbofan
engine operating at Sultan Muhammad Salahuddin Airport, because previously
flights at Sultan Muhammad Salahuddin Airport were only accommodated by ATR-
72 type aircraft. Boeing 737-500 aircraft can carry more passengers than the ATR-
72 aircraft, then can increasing time efficiency and the number of passengers that
can be transported.
The analysis is gradually starting with an analysis of the runway length
requirements with the Flight Performance and Manual (FPPM) chart Boeing 737-
500, followed by an analysis of the calculation of the maximum operational weight
of the Boeing 737-500 aircraft are limited by the runway pavement classification
number PCN 39/F/D /Y/T available in flight operations at Sultan Muhammad
Salahuddin Airport Bima and analysis of operational support facilities for Boeing
737-500 aircraft, and analysis of the loading capacity of Boeing 737-500 aircraft
on the Bima-Denpasar route at Sultan Muhammad Salahuddin Airport.
In the analysis of runway length requirements using the Flight Planning and
Performance Manual chart Boeing 737-500, the runway length required for a
morning flight (WP) is 2,236 meters. The runway length required for daytime flights
(WS) is 2,276 meters. In the analysis of the maximum operational weight of the
Boeing 737-500 aircraft which is limited by the value of the 39/F/D/Y/T runway
pavement available in flight operations at Sultan Muhammad Salahuddin Airport,
the actual mass value that can be supported by the runway pavement is 58,102 Kg
which is 96% of MTOW of manual aircraft. In the analysis of the carrying capacity
of the Boeing 737-500 at Sultan Muhammad Salahuddin Airport for the route Bima-
Denpasar with Lombok airport as an alternative for Boeing 737-500 aircraft, the
flight carrying capacity is 13.874 kg with a capacity of 136 pax, for 120 pax
passengers allowed cargo for flights is 1.634.
