OWING
The aircraft is most easily and safely maneuvered by pulling it by its propeller near the axle.
Aircraft may be steered by turning rudder or, for steep turns, by pushing lightly on tailcone to
lift nose wheel.

OWN
When parking airplane outdoors, head it into the wind and set the parking brake. If chocks or
wedges are available it is preferable to use the latter. In severe weather and high wind condi-
tions it is wise to tie the airplane down. Tie-down ropes shall be fastened to the lug present on
the wing’s lower surface. Nose gear fork can be used for front tie-down location. Flight con-
trols shall be secured to avoid possible weather vaning damage to moving surfaces.
4.3.
J
ACKING
Given the light empty weight of the aircraft, lifting one of the main wheels can easily be ac-
complished even without the use of hydraulic jacks. For an acceptable procedure please refer to
the Maintenance Manual.
4.4.
L
EVELING
Aircraft levelling may become necessary to check wing incidence, dihedral or the exact loca-
tion of CG. Longitudinal levelling verification is obtained placing a level between the front and
aft seat’s supporting trusses (slide off the seats to get the access to the two trusses).

RANSPORT
It is recommended to secure tightly all aircraft components onto the cart to avoid damage dur-
ing transport. It is suggested to place wings under the aircraft’s bottom, secured by specific
clamps. Secondary components like the stabilator shall be protected from accidental hits using
plastic or other material. For correct rigging and de-rigging procedure, refer to the Mainte-
nance Manual.
