Page 1 -8 CRONYMS AND TERMINOLOGY ENERAL IRSPEED ERMINOLOGY YMBOLS Calibrated Airspeed is the indicated airspeed, corrected taking into account the errors related to the instrument itself and its installation. Indicated Airspeed is the speed shown on the airspeed indicator. True Airspeed is the CAS airspeed corrected taking into account altitude and temperature.
Page 17
Page 1 -9 ETEOROLOGICAL TERMINOLOGY International Standard Atmosphere: is the air atmospheric standard condition at sea level, at 15°C (59°F) and at 1013.25hPa (29.92inHg). Official atmospheric pressure at airport level: it indicates the air- craft absolute altitude with respect to the official airport level. Theoretical atmospheric pressure at sea level: is the atmospheric pressure reported at the medium sea level, through the standard air pressure-altitude relationship, starting from the airport QFE.
Page 18
Page 1 -10 IRCRAFT PERFORMANCE AND FLIGHT PLANNING TERMINOLOGY Crosswind Velocity is the velocity of the crosswind component for which adequate control of the airplane during take-off and landing is assured. Usable fuel is the fuel available for flight planning. Unusable fuel is the quantity of fuel that cannot be safely used in flight.

Page 8- 5 4. Ground Handling 4.1. OWING The aircraft is most easily and safely maneuvered by pulling it by its propeller near the axle. Aircraft may be steered by turning rudder or, for steep turns, by pushing lightly on tailcone to lift nose wheel.
Page 8- 6 5. Cleaning And Care To clean painted surfaces, use a mild detergent such as shampoo normally used for car finish; use a soft cloth for drying. The plastic windshield and windows should never be dusted when dry; use lukewarm soapy water and dry using chamois only. It is possible to use special glass detergents but, in any case, never use products such as gasoline, alcohol, acetone or other sol- vents.
