5.1 GENERAL
This section supplies information about the correct take-off, flight and landing procedures.
With the aim of improving clarity, the operating limits, emergency procedures and the procedures
to apply when flying in adverse conditions are described in separate chapters:
Operating limits
Emergency procedures
Flight in adverse conditions
5.2 FLIGHT PLANNING
The reference data for flight planning are described in Chapter 3.19.
5.3 TAKEOFF AND LANDING DATA
The information necessary to find the takeoff and landing data (TOLD) is contained in
Chapter 3.18.
5.4 WEIGHT AND BALANCE
The limits of weight and balance are quoted in Section 7.
5.5 PILOT CHECKLIST
A concise pilot checklist is supplied as a separate document.
5.6 DAILY PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS
Perform these checks before the first flight of the day (with the gyroplane rigged and fuelled). A
diligent and comprehensive pre-flight check is an essential factor for safe operation of any
aircraft. It is strongly recommended that the pre-flight checks be carried out systematically and
thoroughly prior to flight.
The daily/pre-flight checks can seem to be a long procedure. Over time, when you do the
checks again and again, the checks can be done quickly. The pilot will quickly get to know the
aircraft and what is correct or not. The check is done as a circular procedure. The sequence
starts with the inspection of the instrument panel and continues clockwise around the
gyroplane.
Good flight safety is helped with a good daily/pre-flight check.
