Background: During the recent certification for class D cargo compartments, it was found that to guarantee correct and effective operation of the smoke detection and suppression system, a free space is required to exist between the cargo compartment ceiling and the cargo itself. Only a limited number of Fokker 100 aircraft have been delivered with a class C cargo compartment installed, including the required cargo smoke detection and fire suppression systems, but no markings to indicate the required free space.
