NO EXCEPTIONS D1SR Pilots, Observers, and Trainees When Coast Guard missions are operated with a single engine airplane, the pilot shall shut down the engine when embarking or disembarking crewmembers or passengers, or any time a person leaves the aircraft cabin. Wing mounted twin engine airplanes should ideally be parked so that the fuselage is between the running engine and the path of persons going to or from the airplane. One engine may remain running if no one will cross or enter the area bounded by the extended fuselage centerline forward of the wing on the side where that engine is running. For non-standard engine configurations, IE center-thrust twin designs, such as the Cessna 337, both engines would have to be shut down. |
