Page 20: Warm-Up And Functional Check
Warm-Up and Functional Check Warm-up the engine with a fast idle of 1500 - 2500 RPM until the oil temperature reaches 50 degrees C. During this phase, the cooling is insufficient due to reduced airflow. It is therefore advisable not to shorten the warm-up time by running the engine at higher RPM. The aircraft should be pointed into wind to allow additional cooling air. -
Page 21: Taxi Instructions
Taxi Instructions Normal taxi is provided with throttle, tail wheel and brakes. The right application and coordination makes taxing easy. Brakes and pedals are placed so they operate together. Let the speed of the airplane increase slowly and check the brakes operation. The tail wheel is used to control normal operations on the ground. -
Page 22: Take Off With Obstacles
Take Off with Obstacles Follow instructions as by the short take off after the T.O. rise up and increase the speed in ground effect to 56 – 60 knots, be sure that you will miss the obstacle. Take Off with Cross Wind Keep the flaps in the neutral position and follow the instructions for a normal takeoff (except for flaps) keep the runway direction with the rudder pedals. -

Throttle FULL OPEN Brakes RELEASE Elevator Control LIFT THE TAIL Take off Speed 32 knots Landing Warning: In case of protracted descent with minimal engine speed, the engine can sometimes rapidly cool and ice can be formed in the carburettor. Therefore we remind you to be aware of carburettor icing. -
Page 24: Aborted Landing
Aborted Landing If it is necessary to abort the landing use full power. At the moment when sufficient speed or height is reached retract the flaps. (Speed 56-58 knots). Stall This airplane has good stability and the flight features. The features of the stall of this airplane are normal and gentle. -

Page 26: Propeller Care
SAFETY WARNINGS Never prepare fuel in an area that is enclosed or where fumes could reach ignition point. DO NOT SMOKE or allow open flames or sparks in the vicinity. Never add fuel while the engine is running. Never refuel an aircraft if fuel could be spilled on hot engine components or lexan. (THE LEXAN WILL CRACK IMMEDIATELY IN THIS CASE) Use only approved fuel containers and never transport fuel in an unsafe manner. -
Page 27: Emergency Procedures
At altitudes under 2000 feet, avoid flying in close proximity to houses or over parks and recreational areas During approach to or departure from an airport, climb after takeoff and descent for landing should be made so as to avoid prolonged flight at low altitude near noise sensitive areas. -

You have increased the pull on the string to overcome these forces thus creating the centripetal forces noted above-forces which tend to push the object toward the centre of the circle and produce a curved path of travel.
- Page 38 An abrupt pull-up at high speed is very likely to cause structural failure. No matter how strong an airplane has been designed there is a speed above which it is possible to break the wings. Some military airplanes are so strong that the pilot "blacks out" before he can put enough load on the wings or reach a speed which would break the wings.
- Page 39 3. THOU SHALL EVER TAKE HEED UNTO AIR TRAFFIC RULES : Keep a constant lookout for other aircraft. Follow the rules so that pilots of other planes will know what you are going to do. 4. THOU SHALL NOT MAKE FLAT TURNS : This is particularly important when making power-off turns.
