WARNING
Take-off must be aborted if:
The engine is running rough.
Engine performance reduced.
The engine instruments’ values are beyond operational limits.
The engine choke is open
The crosswind velocity exceeds permitted limits.
Or if for any reason it is considered dangerous to proceed
4.4.8
Climb
1.
Throttle
- max. take-off power (max. 5 min.) 5800 rpm.
- max. continuous power (4800 rpm).
2.
Climb Speed
- Vy best climb speed 65 Knots
3. Flaps
- Retract slowly above 300’ if positive rate of climb
4.
Trim
- adjust as required
5. Instruments
- CHT, oil temp. and pressure within limits.
6.
Electric fuel pump
- switch off and check fuel pressure remains in limits.
7.
Power
- reduce slightly if safe to do so maintain a safe clime
speed
CAUTION!
If the cylinder head temperature or oil temperature exceeds its limit, reduce the
climb angle to increase airspeed.
4.4.9
Cruise
The EV-97 EuroStar SL Microlight
flight characteristics are very forgiving within
permitted limits of airspeeds, configurations and CG range. The aircraft is very easy to
both control and manoeuvre. For more details about horizontal flight regimes, refer to
the Section 5.
4.4.10 Descent to land from base leg
1. Throttle
- idle or as required for a decent
2. Speed
- reduce to flap speed Vf
3. Flaps
- set one stage 15deg
4. Trim
- as necessary.
5. Final
- approach at 55kts min with two or three stage flaps, increase
speed if gusty conditions. The aircraft can be side slipped in either direction with
caution.
6. Instruments
- check regularly within limits.
CAUTION!
When descending from high altitude, it is not advisable to reduce the throttle control
to minimum. Level off and run at normal power to warm the engine before
descending further
4.4.11
Check before landing
1. Fuel
- fuel quantity check
2. Safety harness
- tightened
3. Brakes
- check function
4. Landing area check
- correct runway or into wind
4.4.14
Landing
Reduce airspeed during the float, so that the touch down speed is minimum.
