1. GENERAL
The aircraft has conventional Friese-type ailerons that are operated with a stick and actuated
with cables. The surfaces have an aluminum structure and are covered with aluminum sheet.
The flaps are operated mechanically by moving a lever located in the upper, left-hand side of
the cockpit ahead of the pilot. The flaps are slotted and have four detent positions: retracted,
first notch (15º), second notch (35º), and full flaps (50º). The flap lever has a spring latch system
that holds the flap in the selected position. To extend the flaps, depress the trigger and then
move the lever down. To retract them, depress the trigger while simultaneously applying a
slight back pressure. Smoothly move the handle forward and release the trigger.
2. MAINTENANCE
Refer to Section 6.3.6 for maintenance and servicing of the flight control surfaces. No major
repair or alterations, as outlined in ASTM F2483, FAR 43, or in this manual are authorized at
