INSTRUMENT PANEL

The instrument panel contains all flight, navigation and
engine instruments that are required for day and night
VFR operations Figure 7-13 shows a typical panel. Note
that the magnetic compass may have deviations greater
than 10° when the landing/taxi lights or pitot heat are
turned on.
For night operations on the aircraft so approved (0056
and on and aircraft modified in accordance with SL002),
night visors must be installed. The visors are stowed in
the upper compartment (Figure 7-18). There are four
pieces:

A left and a right side visor

An instrument panel visor and

A visor over the fuel selector
The visors must be installed as shown in Figure 7-14.
They are attached with Velcro
that they are secure in place and do not interfere with any
of the controls prior to flight.
