1.1 INTRODUCTION
This Pilot's Operating Handbook is designed for maximum uliljzation as
an operating guide for the pilot. It includes the material required to be furnished
to the pilot by F.A.R./C.A.R. 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. Il 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 responsi­
bility of the owner. The pilot in command is responsible for determinjng that
the airplane is safe for flight. The pilot is also responsible for remainjng within
the operating limitations as outlined by instrument markjngs, placards, and lrus
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 afrplane before flight.
The handbook has been divided into numbered 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 intentionally
left blank.
