installed to black out the windows.
2-11. SEATS.
a. Pilot s and Copilot s Seats. The controls for vertical height adjustment and fore and aft travel are located
under each seat. The forward and aft adjustment handle is located beneath the lower front inboard corner of each
seat. Pulling up on the handle allows the seat to move fore or aft. The height adjustment handle is located beneath
the lower front outboard corner of each seat. Pulling up on the handle allows the seat to move up and down. Both
seats have adjustable headrests and armrests which will raise and lower for access to the cockpit. Handholds on
either side of the overhead panels and a foldaway protective pedestal step are provided for pilot and copilot entry
into the cockpit. For the storage of maps and the operator s manual, pilot and copilot seats have an inboard-slanted
expandable pocket afixed to the lower portion of the seat back. Pocket openings are held closed by shock cord
tension (Fig. 2-16).
b. Pilot and Copilot Seat Belts and Shoulder Harnesses. Each pilot and copilot seat is equipped with lap-type
seat belt and shoulder harness connected to an inertia reel. The shoulder harness belt is of the Y coniguration with
the single strap being contained in an inertia reel attached to the base of the seatback. The two straps are worn
with one strap over each shoulder and fastened by metal loops into the seat belt buckle. The spring loading at the
inertia reel keeps the harness snug but will allow normal movement required during light operations. The inertia
reel is designed with a locking device that will secure the harness in the event of sudden forward movement or an
impact action.
