Study Notes
Cabin Ventilation and Cooling
- Cabin ventilation and cooling are achieved solely through fresh air intake from the overhead vent system.
- The overhead vent blower is located aft of the rear cabin close-out panel, underneath the fuselage top.
- The blower is connected to the overhead vent system.
- The vent blower draws in air from either the dorsal fin or a louver on the left rear side of the fuselage.
- The drawn air is then forced through the ducting system.
- A three-position blower switch is located on the instrument panel and controls the two-speed blower.
