8.4.3. Tying down
There are lugs for the tie-down ropes on the aeroplane. They are located
under the wingtips, at the rear of the aeroplane (tail skid) and at the front
(nose landing gear ferrules).
When tying down, the following should be observed:
1. It is recommended to have the aeroplane pointing into wind.
2. Put chocks in front of the main wheels.
3. Apply locks to the ailerons, rudder and elevator, or fasten the control
sticks with safety belts.
4. Put the ropes through the specified lugs and drive the mooring
anchors in the ground. There should only be slight tension on the tie-
downs to prevent sagging.
5. Apply the cover to the pitot and static pressure sensors.
6. Lock the canopy and put on the cover.
7. Position the propeller horizontally.
