1.1 INTRODUCTION
This Pilot’s Operating Handbook is designed for maximum utilization
as an operating guide for the pilot. It includes the material required to be
furnished to the pilot by FAR 23 and FAR Part 21, Subpart J. It also
contains supplemental data supplied by the airplane manufacturer.
This handbook is not designed as a substitute for adequate and
competent flight instruction, knowledge of current airworthiness directives,
applicable federal air regulations or advisory circulars. It is not intended to
be a guide for basic flight instruction or a training manual and should not
be used for operational purposes unless kept in a current status.
Assurance that the airplane is in an airworthy condition is the responsi-
bility of the owner. The pilot in command is responsible for determining that
the airplane is safe for flight. The pilot is also responsible for remaining
within the operating limitations as outlined by instrument markings,
placards, and this handbook.
Although the arrangement of this handbook is intended to increase its
in-flight capabilities, it should not be used solely as an occasional operating
reference. The pilot should study the entire handbook to become familiar
with the limitations, performance, procedures and operational handling
characteristics of the airplane before flight.
The handbook has been divided into numbered (arabic) sections, each
provided with a “finger-tip” tab divider for quick reference. The limitations
and emergency procedures have been placed ahead of the normal
procedures, performance and other sections to provide easier access to
information that may be required in flight. The “Emergency Procedures”
Section has been furnished with a red tab divider to present an instant
reference to the section. Provisions for expansion of the handbook have
been made by the deliberate omission of certain paragraph numbers, figure
numbers, item numbers and pages noted as being left blank intentionally.
