2.9 Seats and harness belts
The airplane is equipped with adjustable seats with soft cushions. The seats are attached
to two transverse beams inside fuselage
. The harness belts are of the 4-point type. Two
shoulder belts are passed over the shoulders from behind and are joined to the waist belts
with adjustable buckles
. The lock is attached to the waist belts.
Before climbing into the cockpit the pilots should adjust the seat position. After getting into
the seats the pilots should fasten the belt locks and adjust the belts to their size.
The seats and harness belts properly a · djusted and fastened do not restrict pilot motions
necessary to control the airplane and ensure pilots' safety in flight and during airplane
motion on the ground.

doors are hinged on top and open upward. In their open and closed position the doors are
retained by pneumatic cylinders. Each door can be fixed in the closed position with a lock
.
Both left and right doors have air scoops for ventilation, de-misting of the glass and
providing pilot view for landing in poor visibility conditions (snow, rain
, etc . ).

inside of the cockpit- on ground and in flight as well. The container is a soft bag fixed on a
rigid framework
. The container has an opening clap with a zipper. The weight of baggage
in the container may not exceed 20 kg (44 lb).
