3. Description
When the cabin is not pressurized, each sliding window can be opened using a continuous two-phase control. The control is located at the rear section of the windshield panel. The windshield panels are provided with an open-position locking system. The dimensions of the exit provided by the open windows enable crew evacuation after a crash.
A 5.5m long knotted rope is located in a stowage above the sliding windows on either side of the overhead panel. The cover plate of each stowage is held closed by spring clips which enables quick opening. These stowages are identified by red labels.
