PURPOSE AND SCOPE

ommendations given in ICAO Annex 6, as applica-
ble and specific to this type of aircraft. Although
these procedures must be adhered to, nothing
should limit personnel from acting on their own best
judgement in an emergency.

mended by Saab AB. In the event of conflict with
the LFV approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) the
AFM shall apply.
