EC120AV8R Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 It's a manual release for the cargo hook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C of G Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Other levers may also be the manual float deployment. The best place for it, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brushfire21 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I was thinking something along the lines of the "manual ejection seat lever" in case the button doesn't work :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klmmarine Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Could it be the easy hover lever? That component hidden from all beginning helicopter flight students by sadist CFIs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
