All Cavalon Pro aircraft are approved for Day-VFR operation. Those equipped with the
necessary additional equipment are approved for Day-VFR and Night-VFR. Refer to
SECTION 2.11 of this manual).
7.13 Instrument Panel
Different instrument panel layouts are available, allowing additional equipment to be fitted
around the basic (minimum) configurations. The basic instrumentation arrangements are:
Standard Layout
Night-VFR Layout
For both layouts provision is made for mounting an iPad or iPad mini for use as a moving
map device. For detailed user information and instructions concerning the different moving
map systems available for use on the Ipad, please refer to the manufacturer’s
documentation.
The Ipad is only permitted as an unapproved GPS or as an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB). An
EFB means that the Ipad may be loaded with the aircraft manuals and associated
documentation. Use of information displayed as an alternative to VFR flight is NOT
approved. The pilot is recommended to review the CAA’s GA Safety Sense leaflet 25 ¨Use
of GPS¨ (downloadable from
www.caa.co.uk/safetysense
).
It is the operators responsibility to ensure any information and software stored in the Ipad is
up to date. The Ipad itself is not supplied by RotorSport, and has not been approved to any
airworthiness standard.
NOTE
Any moving map system shall be used for reference only and does not replace
proper flight planning and constant oversight and awareness.
Depending on the chosen instrumentation and optional equipment, the depicted panels on
the following pages may vary. Note that the standard compass is mounted to the glare
shield.
Some hand held GPS units and antennas emit magnetic fields that vary with respect to time
and/or levels of battery charge. These may change your compass deviations, so always
cross check between the compass headings with your GPS installed and placard
accordingly if required
