Limitations
2.8 ACROBATIC MANEUVERS
2.8.1 NORMAL FLIGHT
All acrobatic maneuvers are prohibited except stall, chandelle, lazy eight and turns up to 60
degrees bank angle.
2.8.2 ACROBATIC FLIGHT
The plane is designed for unlimited acrobatics (wing tank must be empty). Inverted flight
maneuvers are limited to max 4 minutes. Recommended basic maneuver entry speeds are
listed in the following list.
N O T E
This airplane is capable up to 10g maneuvers. If acrobatic maneuvers will be
performed with a co-pilot or passenger, the pilot should ensure that the co-pilot/
passenger has been properly briefed on the physiological effects of high g
maneuvers. This briefing should include accepted muscles straining and breathing
techniques to counter the physiological effects of high g maneuvers. During the
flight, the pilot should ensure the co-pilot/passenger is doing OK.
Check weight and C/G!
CAUTION
Particular caution must be exercised when performing maneuvers at speeds above
V
A
[160 KIAS (296 km/h)]. Large or abrupt control inputs above this speed may impose
unacceptably high loads which exceed the structural capability of the aircraft.
N O T E
For acrobatic maneuvers see Section 4. All maneuvers can be performed in upright and
inverted flight attitude.
