ATA-100 breakdown
The ATA-100 system is a numbering system that uses a six-figure number to structure maintenance documentation for aircraft. The first three numbers are assigned by the ATA system with the other three free to use by the airframe manufacturer. The system allows a maintenance technician to look up any relevant information quickly as topics can always be found in the same corner of a particular manual, irrespective of who built the aircraft. The list below sets out the top level ATA-100 chapters for the Vickers VC10. This folded card served as a handy cheat sheet so that the chapter structure was clear. Over time, most users will no doubt remember a lot of these top-level numbers.

Interesting to see that the last four BOAC Super VC10s are listed as type 1152s. This was supposed to be a version with a main deck freight door, but these were never built. So why were these registrations still listed as such? This card was updated to 1972, by that time they should have realised that these Supers did not have a freight door on their main deck.
