NOVEL STORAGE COMPARTMENT IN THE NOSE SECTION OF AN AIRCRAFT, NOTABLY AN AIRCRAFT DEDICATED TO THE CARRIAGE OF PASSENGERS AND/OR OF FREIGHT AND TO THE AIRCRAFT PROVIDED WITH SUCH A COMPARTMENT

摘要

Attempts are increasingly being made to optimize space in the flight decks of aircraft to reduce the overall volume thereof with a view to increasing that of the profit-making zones such as the cabin. To this end, the present disclosure relates to a nose section of an aircraft including a cockpit separated from a cabin by a bulkhead. The bulkhead includes a recess projecting from the surface of the bulkhead on the cabin side, laterally offering hollow zones closed by at least one closure wall to create at least one storage compartment. The volume gained in the cabin allows for the storage of cockpit equipment, thus allowing cockpit volume to be optimized.
