4.5 Crosswind and wind limitations
The maximum demonstrated crosswind is 30 km/h / 16 knots.
CAUTION!
Due to the light operating weights and low minimum flight speeds of
Light Sport Aircraft, operations with surface winds in excess of 46 km/h /
25 kts should not be attempted.
4.6 Service Ceiling
The Service Ceiling is the maximum altitude at which a climb rate of 100 ft/min /
30 m/min can be achieved. For the CTSW it is 4,250 m / 14,000 feet.
Note: An aircraft must be properly equipped and the pilot appropriately certificated for
operations above 10,000 feet / 3,000 m.
4.7 Load factors
The maximum maneuvering limit load factor is: + 4 g / -2 g Flaps up
+ 2 g / -0 g Flaps down
