Airframe

General

The Cabri G2 airframe is composed of three sections :
•
The main fuselage, including cabin, central structure, luggage
and fuel compartments. It is all made of composite sandwich.
•
The engine section, isolated between a front and an aft
firewalls. It is made of the steel truss engine mount, and
composite cowlings.
•
The aft structure, a composite shell combining the tail boom,
the fins, and the tail rotor shroud, with the horizontal stabilizer.
Two composite cabin doors enable passenger / pilot access.
One composite door enables external access to the luggage
compartment.

Landing gear

The main landing gear is composed of two tubular bows, and two skids.
It is attached to the fuselage by soft elastomeric mounts, giving
adequate frequency tuning against ground resonance. There is no
damper.
The landing skids are protected against abrasion by a set of carbide
wear shoes.

Seating

The cabin features two high-energy absorbing, stroking-seats, improving
occupants protection in case of a crash.
Note : The left seat pan can be removed to carry large cabin luggage.
Specific optional brackets are available to secure them. A cap is
provided to cover cyclic root, as copilot controls are removed.
