ACROBATIC MANEUVERS
4.12.1
GENERAL
Prior to aerobatic flying the aircraft must be carefully checked regarding loose objects.
For solo flying, front cockpit’s harness must be secured. Solo flying is allowed from the rear seat
only.The pilot’s harness must be as tight as possible.
Note the maneuver’s limitations according to chapter 2.
During zero-G maneuvers a loss of oil pressure is normal, it will stabilise again as any G´s are applied.
The high G-forces possible in this aircraft can easily overstress the unaware pilot.
Each pilot must know his own limits and act careful accordingly.
Because of the probability concentration of CO gases in the cockpit while performing spins it is
strongly recommended to leave the cockpit air vents open all the time.
Be careful while maneuvering above V
A
= 174 kts / 322 km/h. Big and abrupt control inputs with
elevator and / or rudder can overstress the airframe which can result in catastrophic failure.
