Outrigger failure on take off or landing
If an outrigger should collapse, the wing tip will lower and the outriggers
mechanism will contact the ground. The propeller will remain clear.
*
Do not panic.
*
Do not allow the nose of the aircraft to wander off sideways. Keep it
straight with rudder/tailwheel.
*
Close the throttle and brake to a stop gently.
After first flight give the entire aircraft a general inspection. Attach any
trim tabs that are necessary to the rudder or ailerons. Complete a thorough
inspection of the aircraft after each of the first six flights.
Further flight testing
Make a note of pitch trim setting for take-off, then placard this position on
the trim indicator.
As the pilot becomes more familiar with the aeroplane and the systems the
known performance envelope may be expanded.
The pilot will also
become more familiar with the take off and landing technique.
Note:
You are test-flying a brand new aircraft and you should treat it as a
kind of prototype. Do not assume that your aircraft will have the same
characteristics as the company’s prototypes or someone else’s Europa.
Minor builder modifications and slight variations can cause large
differences in performance, handling, stall characteristics, C of G range etc.
