1.1 INTRODUCTION

This Pilot's Operating Handbook is designed for maximum utilization as an operating guide for
the pilot. It includes the material required to be furnished to the pilot by C.A.R. 3 and FAR Part
21, Subpart J. It also contains supplemental data supplied by the airplane manufacturer.
This handbook is not designed as a substitute for adequate and competent flight instruction,
knowledge of current airworthiness directives, applicable federal air regulations or advisory
circulars. It is not intended to be a guide for basic flight instruction or a training manual and
should not be used for operational purposes unless kept in a current status.
Assurance that the airplane is in an airworthy condition is the responsibility of the owner. The
pilot in command is responsible for determining that the airplane is safe for flight. The pilot is
also responsible for remaining within the operating limitations as outlined by instrument
markings, placards, and this handbook.
Although the arrangement of this handbook is intended to increase its in-flight capabilities, it
should not be used solely as an occasional operating reference. The pilot should study the entire
handbook to familiarize himself with the limitations, performance, procedures, and operational
handling characteristics of the airplane before flight.
The handbook has been divided into numbered (Arabic) sections, each provided with a "finger-
tip" tab divider for quick reference. The limitations and emergency procedures have been
placed ahead of the normal procedures, performance, and other sections to provide easier access
to information that may be required in flight. The "Emergency Procedures" section has been
furnished with a red tab divider to present an instant reference to the section. Provisions for
expansion of the handbook have been made by the deliberate omission of certain paragraph
numbers, figure numbers, item numbers, and pages noted as being left blank intentionally.
