2.8 Flight Crew
Minimum crew is one pilot in the front seat.
Harness in aft seat must be fastened and tight.
The aft control stick should be removed unless the passenger seat is occupied by a
qualified flight instructor.
2.9 Kinds of Operation
Only day VFR operation is approved!
Aerobatic flight is prohibited!
NOTE
Manoeuvres involving bank angles of more than 60° are considered to be
aerobatic flight.
Low-G manoeuvres are prohibited!
WARNING
Any maneuver resulting in a low-G (near weightless) condition can result in a
catastrophic loss of lateral/roll control in conjunction with rapid main rotor
RPM decrease. Always maintain adequate load on the rotor and avoid
aggressive forward control input performed from level flight or following a pull-
up.
Excessive side-slip is prohibited!
WARNING
Side slip may be performed only with proper training and within safe
boundaries. Use gentle pedal input for initiation and stabilization. Do not rely
on airspeed indication in side slip. Never perform abrupt control stick input into
the direction of motion. Be aware that excessive side slip particularly in
strong/gusty conditions may result in an uncontrollable and unrecoverable
attitude.
