RIGHT AFT EMERGENCY EXIT HATCH
The emergency exit hatch is located on the right aft side of the cabin
near the leading edge of the wing, adjacent to the right aft passenger
seat. It provides egress from the cabin in the event of an emergency. The
hatch is secured to the airframe by two spring-loaded pins which
extend from the top of the hatch into the fuselage structure. The hatch
is designed as a plug type hatch which
opens inward only
, and is held
in the closed position by pressurization forces and the spring loaded
pins. The emergency exit hatch is 20 inches (51 centimeters) wide by
36 inches (91 centimeters) high and functions as a Type III escape hatch.
A security pin can be installed on the inside of the emergency exit hatch
to prevent unauthorized entry from the outside. The security pin is
inserted from the inside to lock one of the spring loaded hatch pins in
place. The security pin has a small flag attached which states REMOVE
BEFORE FLIGHT.
