fifty
inch pounds. Seven tie-down
attachments
bolt to
standard attach points in
the cabin
floor,
including
three
rear

The seven
attach
points
are
located
as
follows:
two
are located
slightly inboard and
just aft
of
the
rear
door
posts
approximately
at station

utilize
the
aft
outboard mounting
points
of
the
rear

of
the
rear
