transparent container before the first flight of the day. Any water present will sink to the bottom. If any water
is found in the tank, check the carburettor fuel bowls for water before your next flight.
4.10. SECONDARY STRUCTURES AND SYSTEMS - SEAT BELTS
Lap straps are provided for both occupants. In addition, a single diagonal shoulder restraint is provided for
the front seat and twin shoulder restraints for the rear.
4.11. SECONDARY STRUCTURES AND SYSTEMS – COCKPIT, FAIRINGS AND SCREEN
All fairings are made of lightweight composite materials and serve the dual functions of giving the pilot a
degree of weather protection as well as improving the aerodynamics of the aircraft. The GT450 spat fins and
wing tip fins are fitted to improve high speed yaw stability. The polycarbonate screen with deflectors protects
the pilot from the slipstream, it must be kept clear using a clean cloth, soap and plenty of water
•
The screen extension must be removed when folding the pylon for rigging / de rigging.
•
Any further modifications which add side area to the front of the pod will adversely affect high
speed yaw stability and are not recommended without extensive flight testing.
4.12. SECONDARY STRUCTURES AND SYSTEMS - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The aircraft is fitted with two standard wiring systems; one for transmission of electrical power derived from
the engine alternator and the other for sensor signals to be used in instrumentation. Two independent sets of
cables to the two separate ignition switches are provided. Ignition is independent of the
battery/alternator/regulator system.
The power available from the alternator is a function of engine speed and the electrical load.
•
Gasoline is extremely flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions.
•
Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped.
•
Do not smoke or allow flames and sparks in the area where the engine is refuelled or where
fuel is stored.
•
Turn the ignition and Master switches OFF. Earth the aircraft.
•
Never fill the tank so that the level rises into the filler neck. If the tank is overfilled, heat may
cause the fuel to expand and overflow through the tank vents.
•
After fuelling, make sure the fuel cap is securely replaced.
•
Be careful not to spill fuel when refuelling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapour may ignite. If any fuel
is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine.
•
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin or breathing of vapour. KEEP FUEL OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.
Take care not to disturb the wiring under the
pod with your feet. Do not store things under
the seat that can disturb connections
Both safety harnesses must be used in full with
shoulder restraints. This must be checked
before take off.
