Section VII - SAFETY INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Raytheon Aircraft Company has developed this special summary of safety information to refresh pilots’
and owner’s knowledge of safety related subjects. Topics in this section are dealt with in more detail in
FAA Advisory Circulars and other publications pertaining to the subject of safe flying.
The skilled pilot recognizes that safety consciousness is an integral, and never-ending, part of his or her
job. Be thoroughly familiar with your airplane. Know its limitations and your own.
Maintain your currency, or fly with a qualified instructor until you are current and proficient. Practice
emergency procedures at safe altitudes and airspeeds, preferably with a qualified instructor pilot, until
the required action is instinctive. Periodically review this Safety Information as part of your recurrency
training regimen.
Raytheon airplanes are designed and built to provide you with many years of safe and efficient
transportation. By maintaining your airplane properly and flying it prudently you will realize its full
potential.

TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE, DESIGNED FOR OPERATION IN A THREE-
DIMENSIONAL ENVIRONMENT, SPECIAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
OBSERVED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FATAL OR SERIOUS INJURIES TO
THE PILOT(S) AND OCCUPANT(S).
It is mandatory that you fully understand the contents of this publication and the other operating and

and review be scrupulously complied with; and that only persons who are properly licensed and rated,
and thoroughly familiar with the contents of the Pilot’s Operating Manual and FAA Approved Airplane

TOTAL DESTRUCTION OF THE AIRPLANE, ALONG WITH SERIOUS OR
FATAL INJURIES TO ALL OCCUPANTS.
