tional equipment, herein described.

circuit breaker and installed in correspondence of fixed part of the canopy, one
for each side. Fitted with flexible struts, they can be adapted to illuminate the in-
struments panel, as per pilot needs.
A dimmer device, located next to the annunciator panel, allows for regulating in-
struments lights brightness.
