Maximum Power Flight
Descend to 1000 feet AGL, set the altimeter subscale to 1013.2 hPa and record the Pressure
Altitude and OAT.
With the engine at wide open throttle and the aircraft in straight and level flight, record the
indicated airspeed and engine rpm and the EOP, EOT, CHT and EGT (if fitted).
Timed Climb
Set the aircraft up in the cruise configuration at 2800-2900 rpm. Record the Pressure Altitude,
which will also be the start height, and the OAT.
With the engine at wide open throttle and the aircraft trimmed to 80 KIAS, record the time
taken to climb 1000 ft, the indicated rate of climb, the engine rpm and the EOP, EOT, CHT
and EGT (if fitted).
Set the altimeter subscale back to the local QNH that you recorded before takeoff.
General
Record your observations of the following:

Lateral & Directional Control Rigging

Lateral & Directional Rigging and Trim

Lateral & Directional Stability and Control

Longitudinal Static Stability
Equipment
Test and record the operation and performance of the VHF comm(s), the transponder (if
fitted), the GPS (if fitted), all flight and engine instrumentation and any other fitted equipment
such as strobe and Nav lighting or UHF comm.
Ground handling during and after landing
When landing check that the undercarriage does not have any unusual noises, that the aircraft
is easily controlled on the runway and that the brakes work evenly when applied.
Post flight
Immediately after landing and securing the aircraft record your observations of the overall
characteristics of the aircraft and it‟s systems as well as calculating the total engine hours and
the fuel consumption rate.
When you are satisfied that the aircraft performs satisfactorily then this completes the
Testing>Flight testing task and signals the end of this Manual as well.
The future
Congratulations, you have achieved something that most people can only dream about: you
have built and flown your very own aircraft! This is a significant achievement and one that
