5. CANOPY SAFETY

D During flight of the F-18 aircraft, a high

voltage (100,000 volts) static electrical

charge may build up and be stored in the

windshield and canopy. After flight, static

charge buildup must be discharged using

anti-static

gloves

(part

number

SG-200-93-y-F150), before personnel

can safely touch the windshield and

canopy.

D Canopy has dual rocket motors mounted

on canopy frame. With canopy open,

rescue personnel may be seriously injured

if rocket motors are ignited.

a. CANOPY UNLATCH THRUSTER

To safety Canopy Unlatch Thruster and

Canopy Rocket Motors, INSERT safety

pin, if available, into Canopy Jettison

Handle.

Note

Insert safety pin with jettison lever forward.

On F/A-18B/D/F/G (two seat), insert the canopy

jettison safety pin in the Rear Internal Canopy

Jettison Lever.

D Unauthorized transmission aboard ship is

prohibited.

D While there is no apparent danger to person-

nel because of the HF electromagnetic field

generated by the AN/ARQ-34 transmitter,

electrical shock hazards exist if personnel

come into contact with the antenna or the

not to touch the antenna or the airframe while

the AN/ARQ-34 is transmitting.

Note

If antenna is rotated, Sector A must move

accordingly.

The C-26 is a joint service aircraft used by the

USAF, US Army, US Navy, and State

Department for drug interdiction.

d. ALCOHOL-WATER (AWI) FLUID

MIXTURE

The C-26 (SA 227-DC model) uses an

alcohol-water mixture composition (CAWI

system) with a quantity of 14 US gallons or

54 liters. The mixture is Methyl Alcohol 40%

and water 60%. Prior to flight the CAWI

tank will be full. The interconnected storage

tanks are located between the fuselage

lower skin and the wing belly panel.

Common plumbing is routed through each

wing leading edge to each engine.

Methyl Alcohol (Methanol) is a violent poison

and can not be made nonpoisonous. In case of

accidental contact, flush with water immediately.

Methanol vapors are toxic and extremely

flammable. Do not smoke, generate sparks, or

expose Methanol to open flame.

e. OXYGEN BOTTLE AND SHUTOFF

VALVE LOCATION

The C-26 (SA 227-DC) contains one

oxygen bottle located beneath the

equipment rack aft of the aft cargo

compartment bulkhead. Oxygen lines are

routed to the pilot and co-pilot and along the

right side of the fuselage to the passengers.

A shut-off valve is located on each

regulator.

canopy open handle, to unlock canopy.

(2) Rotate canopy open handle clockwise to

the open position.

CAUTION

The side opening canopy is not quickly opened.

rescue saw or crash ax to gain cockpit entry.

CANOPY SAFETY

a. CFS safety pins are stored in the pin

storage box on the aft left cockpit bulkhead.

Remove pins from storage.

b. Insert CFS safety pins in the CFS handles

located on the left consoles in both cockpits.

If canopy can not be opened or fractured, cut

hole into canopy opposite interior handle, then

rotated with seat safety pin installed.

6. ENGINE SHUTDOWN

Note

Emergency engine shutdown (to include shutting

off fuel, hydraulics, and bleed air supply via the

front cockpit only. If the front cockpit is not

accessible and the engine needs to be shutdown,

normal engine shutdown can also be

accomplished from the rear cockpit. (In the event

the front cockpit controls are not accessible or

damaged, and the engine is still running, the PCL

can also be placed to “OFF” from the rear cockpit.)

FIRE SHUTDOWN
