Pilot's and Copilot's Seats
b.
Pilot's and Copilot's Seat Belts and Shoulder
Harnesses. The pilot's and copilot's seats are equipped
with laptype seat belts and shoulder harnesses
connected to an inertia reel. The shoulder harness belt
is of the Y configuration 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 flight 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.
