Recommendation

The Civil Aviation Authority of Israel (CAAI) supervise that Israel Aviation Industries
(IAI) updates the operating manuals of the Gulfstream G150 and other comparable
aircraft types. Updates to the sections that address closing the door as a means of
heating or cooling the aircraft should include a caution to check that the outflow valve is
fully open before the door is closed.
