GENERAL
Side-by-side seating is provided for pilot (on the right hand) and for the
copilot. Crew compartment standard furnishing comprises the sliding seats
and safety belts.
The seat structure consists of a carbon fiber constructed frame. Two
cushions of flexible polyurethane are formed in the frame.
The seat is fixed to the helicopter structure by four sliding shoes fixed into
floor tracks in order to allow fine horizontal adjustment (the system is
operated through a lever). The seat is equipped with approved 4-point safety
belt system: lap belts fixed on the seat, shoulders belt are guided by an
aluminum bracket downward to the inertia reel fixed on the backside of the
backrest.

INTERIOR LAY-OUT pilot(s) and stretcher patients, up-to six places are at disposition.
The cabin lay-out grants a great flexibility, thus different type of sound-
proofing and interior arrangements are available to permit the operator to
select the most suitable one for its own operation. Removal of the seats
allows the conversion of the passenger compartment into cargo area. The
change from one configuration to others can be easily accomplished on
ground in a few minutes. Standard soundproofing installation is provided in
order to insulate the cabin from structural and mechanical noises and
consists of soundproofing panels installed on the sides and on the roof of the
cabin.
AUXILIARY BAGGAGE AREA

Behind the aft ward passenger seats station there is an auxiliary baggage
area. This area can be used to install one or two auxiliary fuel tanks or as
storage by installing a safety net.

TRANSMITTER (ARTEX C406-2HM)
ZK-A-25-62-00-00A-046A-T FOR TRAINING PURPOSE ONLY 2015-03-18 Page: 1

GENERAL
The emergency locator transmitter, installed inside of the tail boom, provides
an emergency radio frequency transmission automatically activated during a
crash.
The ELT radiated power is 5 Watts for a time of 24 hours at a temperature of
-20°C.
The battery pack allow transmission for at least 72 hours.
The ELT antenna is installed on top of tail boom of the helicopter (A109E/S)
inside the vertical fine (AW109SP).
The remote control (cockpit panel switch) provides “MANUAL ON”,
“ARMED”, and “RESET” modes.
OPERATION
Under normal operation the switch configuration on the front panel is the
down position reading “ARM”. The switch on the ELT unit will also be
positioned down to read “OFF”. Should an emergency arise to the degree
that you want to manually activate your ELT, reverse either switch so it is in
the up (“ON”) position. As long as the front panel and ELT switches are in
ARM/OFF position the ELT will automatically activate on impact.
If the ELT is activated accidentally, reset can be done by moving the front
panel switch to “ON”, then immediately rocking it back to “ARM”. You may
also reset the ELT at the unit itself by positioning the switch on the ELT up to
“ON”, then immediately back down to “OFF.

CARGO HOOK

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The cargo hook permits the transportation of suspended loads. It is fitted on
a support frame that is connected to four supports attached to the helicopter
fuselage underside in proximity to the center of gravity.
The cargo hook system includes the following components:
• Primary cargo hook
• Secondary cargo hook
• Two mirrors (AW109SP only)
• A support frame
• Four cargo hook guarded switches (two each cyclic stick)
• Four cargo release pushbuttons (two each cyclic stick) control relays
• A load measuring indicator
• Two manual (emergency) release systems.
PRIMARY CARGO HOOK

The primary cargo hook is fitted on the helicopter hook frame by two quick
disconnect fasteners and two pins.
A flexible lock plate is installed to be used for stowing the cargo hook when
its use is not required.
Cargo release is controlled by the CARGO REL PRIM switch located on both
the pilot cyclic sticks when the CARGO REL PRIM toggle type switch is
lifted. In the event of electrical failure, cargo release can be obtained by
operating either the primary EMER CARGO RELEASE PULL handle,
located between pilot’s seats, or by a ground assistant turning the knob
located on hook in the direction indicated by the arrow.
The load measuring system includes:
a load sensing device, positioned in series between the load and the hook,
which senses the weight of the load an indicator that displays the weight of
the load.
The primary cargo hook system is powered by 28 VDC from the BATTERY
BUS, protected by the CAR HOOK PRI circuit breaker, located on the
overhead console.

PRIMARY CARGO HOOK INSTALLATION

SECONDARY CARGO HOOK
Provision is made for a secondary cargo hook installation that is used to
stabilize the primary hook load.
It is fitted on the helicopter hook frame by two quick disconnect fasteners.
Secondary cargo hook is electrically energized by the 28VDC from
BATTERY BUS circuit , protected by a CARGO HOOK SEC circuit breaker
on the overhead panel.
Secondary cargo hook is controlled by the CARGO REL SEC switch on both
the pilot cyclic sticks. In the event of electrical failure, cargo release can be
obtained by operating either the secondary EMER CARGO RELEASE PULL
handle, located between pilot’s seats, or by a ground assistant turning the
knob located on hook in the direction indicated by the arrow.

REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SUPPORT
The rear-view mirror it attached by means of its support to the lower right
hand side of the aircraft and allows the pilot to verify the correct loading and
unloading of cargo from the hook.
The AW109SP is also provided with a left hand rear-view mirror installation.
