DOORS AND HATCHES
AVIONICS BAY AND BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT DOORS
Access to the avionics bay is provided by two side-hinged doors, one on each side
of the aircraft. Each avionics bay door is secured by three latches, one on each of
the non-hinged sides.
Access to the baggage compartment is provided by a lockable, top-hinged door on
the left side of the aircraft. The baggage compartment door is secured by three
latches, one on each of the non-hinged sides.
To open, press a latch inward until the lock-half pops outward, and repeat for the
other latches. Each door has a strut attached that may be used to secure the door
in the open position. To close the door, stow the strut and close the door against the
side of the fuselage.
Press the lock-half of a latch inward until the latch snaps, and repeat for the other
latches.
GROUND EGRESS DOORS
Access to the external canopy fracture system (CFS) handles is provided by two
lockable doors, one on each side of the aircraft. Each door is secured by a single
latch.
To open, press the latch inward, until the lock-half pops outward. To close the door,
close the door against the side of the fuselage and press the lock-half of the latch
inward until the latch snaps.
ENGINE COWLINGS AND DOORS
The engine compartment area forward of the firewall is enclosed by several fixed
and several openable or removable cowlings. The lower portion of the enclosure is
fixed and can be removed by maintenance personnel only.
From the spinner aft, the engine compartment is divided into the nose area
(forward cowlings), the plenum area (plenum panels), and the accessory area (left
and right cowling doors).
The nose area extends from the spinner back plate to just aft of the engine exhaust
stacks. The reduction gear box, PIU, chip detector, exhaust stacks and torque probe
are accessible with the nose area cowlings removed.
Access to the nose area is provided by an upper and a lower forward cowling, both
of which are removable by maintenance personnel.
