PILOT’S OPERATING HANDBOOK
The POH handbook consists of the following:
Basic POH
The basic POH provides all the information, procedures and limitations required to operate the
aircraft as a Light Sport Aircraft. This basic POH is applicable to all Jabiru J170-D Aircraft.
The operating procedures presented herein are the result of Jab
iru Aircraft’s knowledge and
experience gained up to the date of issue of this handbook. The handbook may be used for
operational purposes only if kept in a fully amended state. It contains all the information considered
necessary to safely operate the aircraft.
The operator must be thoroughly familiar with the aircraft and the contents of this handbook before
initial operation. Thereafter the handbook should be reviewed periodically to enable the operator
to maintain the highest level of familiarity with the aircraft, its controls and recommended operating
procedures.
This POH also includes the information required of the Flight Training Supplement: there is no
separate FTS for the J170-D.
Supplements
Self contained supplements are provided in Section 9 of the POH to provide details and procedures
associated with the fitment of specified optional and special purpose equipment. Supplements are
specific to the particular aircraft S/No. displayed on their title page.
Amendments
This manual is revised as a complete document. When a new issue of the manual becomes
available operators must transfer the aircraft-specific data (such as aircraft weight and balance
information and supplements) to the new manual. The old manual must not be used for further
operation of the aircraft.
Operators must then familiarise themselves with the new revision of the manual. Those sections
of the manual which have been revised are shown with
red text
