12/17 The cockpit, which was self-bailing, was roomy enough to accommodate seven persons comfortably. Life preservers were ingeniously strapped under the chair seats and two others hung at each side of the after cabin door. At the forward end a lavatory occupied one side and a clothes locker the other. Other lockers occupied the space between the seats and the three ports. This compartment, like the main cabin, was enamelled in cream-white with mahogany trim. |
