5.8 TAXIING
WARNING DANGER:
It is necessary to proceed very carefully during all ground operations.
The control stick must be kept in the fully-forward position (nose down), either by hand
or by using the dedicated control lock.
Keep an appropriate safety distance from people and objects, especially when the rotor
is turning.
WARNING DANGER:
It is strictly forbidden to leave the gyroplane while the rotor is turning.
WARNING:
Taxiing with the doors closed is recommended if there is a strong wind or wind gusts.
This to avoid damage to the doors and stress to the locking/hinge system.
WARNING:
To reduce the lateral dimensions when the gyroplane is stationary, the rotor should
always be aligned with the longitudinal axis of the gyroplane. Additionally, the rotor
brake should always be engaged when the gyroplane is not moving.
