7.8 Seats and Safety-Belts ___________________________
The seats are made of cushioned seat-pans, which are integrated into the
cockpit-floor. Their positions are adjustable at the top and bottom (optional), so
that they can be positioned ergonomically. The upper sections of each backrest
are designed as head-rests.
Optionally, the backrest can also be adjusted at the bottom. The adjustment has
to be done before flight by moving the backrest along the lower mounting rails.
By pulling the adjusting rail left and right to the inside at the same time the
backrest is unlocked and can be moved to the desired position. Pay attention to
even move of left and right rail to avoid wedge of adjustment. After adjustment
lock the rails in the nearest position.
Also, the slope of the backrest can be adjusted. This allows the backrest to be
positioned by placing a small lever in one of several detents near the mounting
of the seat-belts.
Every seat is equipped with a four-point-safety-harness and a central lock. The
abdominal-belts are mounted at mounting-positions at the left and right sides of
the seat-pan. The shoulder belts are mounted at the crossbar located above and
behind the seatbacks.
Permitted safety-belts are documented in chapter 6.5 of this flight manual.
Attachment points for automatic parachutes are NOT provided. Due to this, only
use parachutes that are operated by hand.
