Aeropro CZ - A220 taildragger - Pilot Operating Handbook and Flight Training Supplement General information Introduction This handbook is provided with your aircraft to allow you to attain as much knowledge about the aircraft and its operation as possible. This manual is following ASTM F2746-14 Standard Specification for Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) for Light Sport Airplane. -
Page 8: Airplane And Systems Description
Aeropro CZ - A220 taildragger - Pilot Operating Handbook and Flight Training Supplement Airplane and systems description The Aeropro A220 is an S-LSA aircraft designed as a high-wing monoplane. A two-spar wing is equipped with external airfoil flaperons. Fuselage is an open truss structure welded of chromoly steel tubes. Tail unit is formed of a lattice-work tube frame. -
Page 9: Engine
Aeropro CZ - A220 taildragger - Pilot Operating Handbook and Flight Training Supplement Engine The A220 is powered by the Rotax 912ULS 100-hp engine. It is a four-cylinder, four-stroke, horizontally- opposed, center-camshaft engine with overhead valves. Engine cooling is of a combined type; cylinder heads are water-cooled while cylinders are air-cooled. - Page 10 Aeropro CZ - A220 taildragger - Pilot Operating Handbook and Flight Training Supplement Due to the higher lead content in AVGAS, the wear of the valve seats, deposits in the combustion chamber and lead sediments in the lubrication system will increase. Therefore, use AVGAS only if you encounter problems with vapor lock or if other fuel types are not available.

Page 47: Airplane Weight And Balance Statement
Aeropro CZ - A220 taildragger - Pilot Operating Handbook and Flight Training Supplement Appendix 1. Airplane weight and balance statement - example The CG position of empty aircraft is determined by weighing. The procedure is described in the Maintenance Manual. The whole procedure must be repeated and new Airplane weight and balance statement must be prepared whenever a modification or repair having impact to the weight of the aircraft occurs. - Page 48 It is strongly recommended that all pilots new to the A220 fly as a minimum at least two hours with a qualified instructor, consisting of at least 5 to 10 traffic patterns and 5 practice emergency procedures.
- Page 49 Stall The A220 is fully controllable when flying at a wide range of airspeeds, however if the airspeed goes below the lower speed limit, the aircraft should display stable stall characteristics. If the airspeed is reduced by the pilot gradually pulling back on the control stick, aerodynamic buffet will occur, indicating that the aircraft is approaching the stall speed.
