GROUND HANDLING & SERVICE
FLIGHT MANUAL
JACKING
Given the light empty weight, lifting one of the main wheels can easily be
accomplished even without the use of hydraulic jacks. It is in fact sufficient that
while one person lifts one half-wing by acting on the spar immediately before the
wingtip, another person places a suitable stand below the steel spring attachment.
LEVELING
Aircraft leveling may become necessary to check wing incidence, dihedral or the
exact location of CG. Leveling is obtained when the lower cabin edge and the main
gear support beam are horizontal.
ROAD TRANSPORT
It is recommended to secure tightly all aircraft components onto the cart to avoid
damage during transport. Minimum cart size are 7x2.5 meters. It is suggested to
place wings under the aircraft’s bottom, secured by specific clamps. Secondary
components such as stabilators and struts shall be protected from accidental hits
using plastic or other material. For correct rigging and derigging procedure, refer to
Service Manual.
CLEANING AND CARE
To clean painted surfaces, use a mild detergent such as shampoo normally used for
car finish; use a soft cloth for drying
The plastic windshield and windows should never be dusted when dry; use
lukewarm soapy water and dry using chamois only. It is possible to use special glass
detergents but, in any case, never use products such as gasoline, alcohol, acetone or
other solvents.
To clean cabin interior, seats, upholstery and carpet, it is generally recommended to
use foam-type detergents.
