There is a small flight accessible compartment for about 20 kg of luggage behind the seats. [4] The underside of the fuselage tapers upwards to the tail, where all surfaces are straight-tapered. The fin and large rudder are swept, with a small fillet. The tailplane is low mounted and the separate elevators, also large, are horn balanced. [3]
