OEM part numbers should be provided with equipment list so that ADI can identify in advance, any parts that will require R&D ADI will require photos of the instrument panel, center console, over-head area of the cockpit, all circuit breaker panels, collective overlays, all cockpit and glareshield flood lights and any other light emitting sources if possible and as applicable. 4

5 4.4. The customer will be required to provide ADI with the instrument panel. This will be used to ensure proper fit of the ADI manufactured NVIS overlay panel(s) ADI requests that the customer provide a panel planner and/or autocad drawing including text layouts in the final configuration for the instrument panel, center console, all switch panels, edge lit panels and circuit breaker panels. This will assist ADI in beginning the design process as early as possible thus reducing turnaround time Customer will be required to provide all existing OEM-NVG equipment to ADI for lighting evaluation. Any OEM equipment that does not meet ADI-FAA NVIS compatibility standards will have to be modified or replaced in order to meet the requirements of the STC Customer may be required to supply ADI with power and ground sources for overlay power supply wiring as well as list of wiring to be capped and stowed for existing equipment lighting Customer will be required to review and approve all installation and configuration drawings and art work prior to ADI beginning production At the time of modification, the customer will be required to provide to ADI, the following equipment Equipment for modifications/evaluation: (per Aircraft) FreeFlight TRI-40 NVG Radar Altimeter Indicator 1ea Nat Audio Control Panels 2ea (with rotated text for horizontal installation) KI-525 HSI 1ea KA51B Slave Switch 1ea Garmin GNS 430 1ea Garmin GTX 330 1ea Standby Magnetic Compass 1ea KY196A VHF 1ea Bell 206 Master Caution Panel 1ea Map Light 1ea (Confirm requirement) Artex ELT Remote Switch Davtron M811B Shadin Mini-Flo Fuel Flow Meter 1ea Voltmeter 1ea AA 22 PA/Siren Control Panel 1ea MA/Comm Radio Control Panel 1ea 5

All aircraft light sources including exterior must be installed and functioning for light evaluation Lighting Evaluation: The Aircraft must be in the following conditions and configurations for each lighting evaluation Unaided daylight readability evaluation: Ensure that lighting conditions reflect a clear, sunny day with relatively low sun angles (worst case) Windows/doors should represent operation configuration and windscreens should be clean Power up aircraft using ground power. 6

7 The aircraft should be evaluated on the flight line and it needs to be possible to rotate the aircraft in order to achieve maximum amounts of direct sunlight incident on the instrument panel Unaided night readability evaluation: Ensure that lighting conditions reflect a cloudy, moon-less night with very low light levels Windows/doors should represent operation configuration and windscreens should be clean Power up aircraft using ground power The aircraft should be evaluated in a paint booth if possible. Otherwise, the aircraft will have to be in a completely darkened hangar or tarped sufficiently to create very low light levels NVG aided night readability evaluation: Ensure that lighting conditions reflect a no-light environment Windows/doors should represent operation configuration and windscreens should be clean Power up aircraft using ground power The aircraft should be evaluated in a paint booth if possible. Otherwise, the aircraft will have to be in a completely darkened hangar or tarped sufficiently to create a no-light environment The customer will be responsible for returning the aircraft to service after FAA- DER approval via FAA form Current Aircraft configuration may be changed by the customer to reduce risk of FAA certification failure. Current aircraft configuration has 1ea GNS 430 and 1ea TRI- 40 Rad Alt indicator installed on top of the instrument panel glare shield in direct view of the pilot. It has been recommended that these items be relocated to accommodate certification. The customer has indicated that the GNS 430 will be relocated to the center pedestal area and the TRI-40 will be relocated to the upper left hand corner of the instrument panel. 5. Work Scope: 5.1. Engineering Engineering will attempt to identify all equipment not currently approved for modification based on customer provided documents so that the customer can be 7
