Ensure cockpit switches are positioned properly and the prop is clear before doing what?

Turning on the battery

T/F: You are allowed to motor the engine with the canopy open

True

T/F: You are allowed to place items, such as pubs bags or helmet bags, on the canopy glass

False

T/F: Do not stow clothing or miscellaneous personal items in the cockpit

True

What is the proper seating position?

Should be the same on every flight. Upper part of EADI should be visible below the glareshield. A clenched fist between the top of the canopy, to ensure adequate clearance for canopy breaker.
