Engine cover

 The engine cover on the right side. A cover for something (oil?) and something further down that also has been scuffed a bit and thus probably can be opened.
 

 


Exhausts

 Low on the right side, engine exhausts and air intake.
 

 


Entrance

 The UP vector on this picture is not the best I've chosen, but I tried to take a picture parallel to the no-slip area on the wing.
 

 


Door

 Some very worn parts, on the left a handle to grab while climbing onto the wing, on the top right the door opener.
 

 


Interior

 The interior, photographed through the windscreen. The interior has a very strong feeling of a 1970s family car.

 Going in. I didn't think of checking—is that an ashtray in the door? Note sunshades.

 

 


Dashboard

 The dashboard. Still very much car feeling.

 

 


Pedals

 Pedals. Remember how the rudder was slightly offset?

 

 


Pilot pedals

 The pedals on the pilot's side.

 

 


Fire extinguisher

 The fire extinguisher(powder) under the pilot's seat. I have one exactly similar in my flat. Is that lever the handbrake?
 

 


Passenger seats

 The passenger seats seem to be covered in a different material than the front seats—presumably the front seats get more worn and have been reupholstered. Behind the passenger seats is an open storage area.
