8.4.3 Tie-Down
The aircraft has three tie-down points; two are located on the lower surface of the wings in the
outboard section (fitted with M 8 threads) and the third is located on the lower fin. The tie-down
points are marked by red circles.
It is recommended to always carry the eye-bolts delivered with the aircraft and suitable tie-
down ropes in the aircraft. The tie-down points should be covered with tape while flying to keep
them clean.
8.4.4 Jacking
Two conical jacking points are located on the lower surface of the wing, at the wing root ribs.
Both of these jacking points are marked with a red ring. The tail of the aircraft can be supported
on the skid plate under the vertical stabilizer. A tail stand may be placed under the skid plate
and attached to the tail tie-down point with a fastener.
The nose wheel may be lifted off the ground for maintenance or inspection by weighing the tail
down. The weight is best attached at the tail tie-down point.
