document code: FK 14 des.002
Spinning any aircraft which is not certified for this maneuver is extremely
dangerous! The onset of a stall is indicated to the pilot by many factors like
IAS, stick pressure, horizon level. Stalls can also be result from abrupt
control deflections / changes in angle of attack!
In strong turbulence the airspeed must be reduced below V
A
.
When flying off grass strips with long grass, the wheel pants must be
removed to avoid damage.
Maneuvers with zero or negative load factors must be avoided under all
conditions. These maneuvers may cause a fire due to fuel spill when using
ROTAX engines with carburetors.
