EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

   

APPROVED

NOTE: 

Pull handle strongly at least 30 centimeters to make sure activation 

is successful.

WARNING

:

!

Rapidly pulling the activation T-handle will greatly increase 

the pull forces required to activate the rocket. Use a firm and steady pulling 

motion.

After Deployment:

4

Fuel Selector

OFF

Shutting off fuel supply to engine will reduce the chances of fire  

resulting from impact at touchdown.

5

Master Switch

OFF

6

Ignition Switch

OFF

7

ELT

ACTIVATE

8

Seat Belts and Harnesses

TIGHTEN

All occupants must have seat belts securely fastened.

9

Loose Items

SECURE

If time permits, all loose items should be secured to prevent injury  

from flying objects in the cabin at touchdown.

10

Assume emergency landing body position

The emergency landing body position is assumed by placing both  

hands on the lap, clasping one wrist with the opposite hand, and  

holding the upper torso erect and against the seat backs.
After the airplane comes to a complete stop, evacuate quickly and  

move upwind.
As occupants exit the airplane, the reduced weight may allow winds 

to drag the airplane further. As a result of landing impact, the doors 

may jam. If the doors cannot be opened, break out the windows. Crawl 

through the opening.
