2.5 Crosswind and wind limitation
Maximum permitted wind speed components for take-off and landing:
m
ax. headwind ………………….…………….............. 28 mph (25 knots)
c
rosswind……………………………………………..…. 17 mph (15 knots)
tail wind………………………………………………..…. 7 mph (6 knots)
Crosswind take-offs and landings require training and experience, the higher crosswind component, the
better your skill must be. Do not fly without proper experience when the wind speed is approaching the
limit.
Avoid take-offs with a tail wind when possible
– the total take-off distance is significantly longer and longer
ground distance is required to gain altitude.
When landing with a tail wind the aircraft ground speed is higher resulting in longer landing distance.
2.6 Service ceiling
Service ceiling .................................................................. 14,760 ft (standard day)
WARNING
Oxygen mask and/or other equipment as required to reach
maximum ceiling, consult respective regulations.
2.7 Load factors
Flaps up:
Maximum positive load factor (measured at CG)
………..…… +4 Gs
Maximum negative load factor (measured at CG)
…………… - 2 Gs
Flaps down:
Maximum positive load factor (measured at CG)
…………….. +2 Gs
Maximum negative load factor (measured at CG)
……………. 0 Gs
2.8 Prohibited maneuvers
WARNING
Aerobatics and intentional spins are prohibited.
Maximum angle of bank: 60°
