A secondary check of the ignition system can be noted on
alternate flights. This can be done by turning the 1 then 2
ignition switch OFF alternating on the next shutdown with a 2
then 1 ignition switch OFF .
Before moving about the cockpit and stowing the headsets,
reinsert the GRS
safety pin into the activation handle.
When opening the canopy, reverse
your method of the closing sequence.
It is imperative that the GRS safety pin be reinserted into its
respective locking position before the crew and passenger
disembark the airplane in order to prevent an accidental firing
of the rocket system.
