3.26 Misplaced movable ballast – pilot solo flight
If a takeoff occurs with the movable ballast incorrectly positioned
in front:
• continue to fly, expect degraded ability to trim at lower speeds
and with flap extended

• approach at 120 km/h (65 KIAS)
• higher side-stick elevator forces will be required in the flare
• expect longer landing than usual
