Avoid long term parking of the aircraft with empty tanks. This will increase the
risk of water accumulation in the tanks and will lead to shrinking of the rubber
tap seal.
4.19 Special Procedure: Short Field Take-off
A short field take off is conducted in exactly the same manner as a normal take-off, but
performed with maximum precision. Therefore, a short field take-off is not so much a
procedural thing, but needs practice, experience and mentoring. Apart from environmental
aspects such as wind and density altitude, the condition of the gyroplane and its gross
weight, the key factors for a short take-off performance are:
Maximum allowed pre-rotation RPM and no time lost until stick is fully aft (if headwind
component allows) and brake is released
Maximum take-off power is set immediately while stick remains fully aft until nose
wheel rises
Nose wheel held tight above surface and minimum side drift until lift-off
No over controlling that would result in the nose swinging up and down
V

climb with no side slip
4.20 Special Procedure: Slow Speed Sink and Recovery
Reduce power to idle and let speed decrease by gently using aft control stick
Maintain enough forward speed for sufficient rudder effectivity
Rudder will regain effectivity quickly as soon as airspeed or propeller thrust is
increased
To recover, let nose drop slightly below the horizon and build-up air speed while
adding power at the same time
4.21 Flight with Doors Removed
Before flying with removed doors any loose objects must be removed from the cabin or
safely stowed.
A possible tail shake (fishtailing) tendency can be minimized by using a small side slip. In
case where only one door is removed, perform a small side slip into the direction of the
closed door (so that the removed door is on the lee-side).
Removal and installation of doors is described in chapter 9-7
NOTE
When flying with doors removed be aware of strong air stream outside the
cockpit.
