7.10.2 Entry
The method of entry varies individually and depends on the size and agility of
the pilot.
The following procedure is a convenient and comfortable method of entering the
aircraft:
•
Stand with your back facing the cockpit.
•
Place one hand on the leading-edge of the wing near the wing-root. Place
the other hand on the cockpit frame.
•
Raise yourself off the ground with both arms and jumping slightly upwards.
Move to sit on the cockpit-frame at the lowest spot.
•
Recover your balance and support yourself on the center console in the
cockpit. Then move legs-first into the cockpit.
7.10.3 Cabin-Ventilation
The ventilation of the cabin occurs individually for each seat and the canopy.
The air for the cabin-ventilation flows from the free-airflow beneath propeller-
spinner into two air-inlets. From there it is lead into a centralized air-distribution-
system, where the airflow splits to the separate vents.
The canopy-vents are located near the canopy-hinge. They are operated with a
Bowden-cable installed at the center top of the instrument-panel.
Each seat for the pilot and copilot has one vent in the leg-room and two vents in
the seating-area which supply the flight crew with fresh air. Ventilation can be
controlled individually for each seat at the vents near the knees.
Operation of all vent-controls follows the same principal:
If the vent-control is fully PULLED rearward, the corresponding vent is fully
OPEN. Otherwise, if the vent-control is fully PUSHED forward, the
corresponding vents are fully CLOSED.
Additional ventilation can be obtained by opening the side-windows of the
canopy.
