PILOT OPERATING HANDBOOK
8.1 Introduction
Chapter 8 contains the procedures for manoeuvring on the ground and the
operation of the gyrocopter as recommended by the manufacturer. It also sets
out certain requirements concerning maintenance and operation which must be
met, if the gyrocopter is to maintain its performance and reliability. It is prudent
to observe the planned schedule of lubrication and preventive maintenance.
8.2 Periodic Inspection of the Gyrocopter
The periodic inspections and their frequency are set out in the Aircraft
Maintenance Manual of the gyrocopter. Regardless of these periodic inspections,
the gyrocopter will also be subject to the inspections required by the appropriate
Aviation Authority.
The owner/user is responsible for the operation of the gyrocopter and must
ensure that all the necessary operations are performed by authorized personnel.
8.3 Repairs and Modifications
Any repairs and modifications to the structure can only be made by authorized
personnel and in agreement with the gyrocopter manufacturer.
NOTE:
Before making any modification to the gyrocopter,
contact the appropriate aviation authority to make sure
