Hi Jim,

Can you point me to the reference your using for the Canadian requirements.
I need to be thinking about then soon.

Thanks

Prepping for the DAR, I may have taken placards too far. Note the warning in the upper right next to the wing walk.

I have a more minimalist approach after paint.

Hi Glenn,

They are scattered across several documents. Amateur build warning can go the instrument panel, must be bilingual. My final inspection is next week so just trying make sure all the boxes are ticked.

Anyone come up with good terminology for the interior placard (Canadian Requirements) for opening of a Interior JD air Latch? Suggestions appreciated.

GOFT · #17 01-09-2021, 09:13 AM

"Exit" is all you need for your latch.
I did not see a requirement for stepwise or progressive instructions.
You could label the white T-handle on the panel: "to exit, pull below 10 feet and 50 kts "

Warning passengers about "this aircraft does not comply..." .
The placard needs to be either in clear view of the passenger in the cockpit or
outside on the fuselage to be visible before clambering in. That's how I interpreted it.

Do not forget the "cargo net" in the baggage compartment.
The inspector also wanted to see the contents of my medical kit.

What is the cargo net requirement?

GOFT · #19 01-09-2021, 11:56 AM

Any means to secure luggage in the baggage area.
Straps, bungee, whatever.
I used a square of old fishing net and 6 carabiners secured to the fuselage.

Thanks for the info. Can you point me to the reference for the cargo net and exit placard requirement. I am hearing many conflicting requirements.
