AIRPLANE AND SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

AIRPLANE FLIGHT MANUAL ORIGINAL ISSUE -- 04-02-2008
SEATS
The front seats are individually mounted and may be adjusted fore and aft to fit individual comfort
preferences. The front seat back may be adjusted by turning left side hand crank (knob) until seat
back is in desired position. Both optional front seat configurations allow vertical seat height ad-
justment by turning right side hand crank to raise or lower the entire seat assembly. The rear seat
backs have four (4) adjustment positions. Each seat can be adjusted independent of the other by
pulling up on respective release handle located on left or right of aircraft centerline on forward
spar. This allows adjustments from approximately 10
o
to 40
o
recline position.
SEAT BELTS/SAFETY HARNESS
Safety restraints, if worn properly, (1 occupant per restraint) keep occupants firmly in their seats
during T/O, landing, turbulent air and during maneuvers. The belts/harnesses are mechanically
simple and comfortable to wear. The front seat inertia belts/harnesses are attached to hard
points on side structure and seats. The rear seat belts are attached to brackets firmly mounted to
structural hard points. Shoulder harnesses are provided for rear seat occupants. Safety belts/
harnesses MUST be fastened for take--off and landing operations. It is recommended that all
infants and small children below 40 lbs. weight and/or under 40 in. height be restrained in an
approved child restraint system appropriate to their height and weight. The single diagonal type
safety harness is designed so the chest strap crosses diagonally from the outboard shoulder to
an attachment point as low on the inboard hip as possible. Rear seat occupants should take care
to conform with this procedure in adjusting chest strap and inboard belt length. This diagonal
configuration places body center--of--gravity inside the triangle formed by chest strap and lap
belt. The lap belt should be adjusted comfortably tight. As a result, the body is restricted from
rolling out toward the unrestricted shoulder or “open” side of the harness, upon forward impact.
Refer to Figure 7--4 for proper seat belt/harness adjustment.
DOORS, WINDOWS & EXITS
CABIN DOOR
Access into cabin is provided by a door located on right side of fuselage. This door has inside and
outside operating handles. The outside door handle can be locked with a key specifically pro-
vided for it. The door has two latching mechanisms, one located at the top of door and one at the
aft, center of door.
Should the door come open in flight, flying qualities of the aircraft will not be affected. Procedures
for closing door in flight are contained in SECTION III.
PILOT’S WINDOW
A pilot’s storm window is located in the left main cabin window. This window is generally used for
fresh air for prolonged ground operations or as required during adverse weather conditions. The
window should not be opened in flight above 132 KIAS.
EMERGENCY EXITS
The CABIN DOOR is the primary emergency exit from the cabin. If a situation exists where a
probable off airport landing will occur, the door should be unlatched to prevent jamming during
landing.
The BAGGAGE compartment access DOOR can be used as an auxiliary exit. The door can be
opened from the inside even though locked. To open, pull off small ABS cover, pull out latch pin
and pull Red Handle.
To verify re--engagement of latching mechanism; open outside handle fully, close inside handle
to engage pin into cam slide of latch mechanism; insert latch pin into shaft hole to hold Red Han-
dle down. Replace ABS cover. Operate outside handle in normal method.
