Flight Compartments
The structural integrity of the webbing on this aircraft is critical for safe operation. All of
the webbing should be inspected for signs of wear, fraying, cuts, or other mechanical
damages, as well as any significant UV damage that may have occurred.
It is preferable to store the aircraft away from direct sunlight.
Seats
The Seats themselves structurally consist of webbing which is attached to the seat frame.
The padding and other areas of the seats are non structural components
Occupant Restraint Systems
Both the pilot and passenger seats are fitted with both lap and shoulder belts. Both of
these should be periodically checked for wear and correct operation, in particular the
stitching, webbing, and all attachments. Any worn or damaged belts or fittings should be
replaced; this includes belts that have been subject to extreme loads during a heavy
landing. It should be noted that in order to inspect the seatbelts they need to be pulled out
as far as possible from their reels.
Check the shoulder harness inertia reel for corrosion, moisture and debris. Check that the
belt retracts readily and locks when pulled suddenly. Check the lap belt connector for
proper operation, engagement and release.
