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 contpetent 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 inten tionallyleft blank
.
