Introduction
This Flight Manual is designed as an operating guide for the pilot. It
includes material required to be furnished to the pilot by EASA CS 27 and
Part 21. It also contains supplementary data supplied by the helicopter
manufacturer.
This manual is intended to give the pilot the best possible information
and to help him find the best answer to most operational situation. However,
it cannot replace pilot’s appreciation of each particular situation. Pilot must
maintain adequate ground and flight instruction, and good proficiency in the
type of helicopter.
To achieve the required level of safety, the helicopter pilot-in-command
must be familiar with this manual’s content, with other safety-related
available information, and with all the regulation covering aircraft operation
that are relevant in the country of operation. He is responsible for
determining that the helicopter is safe for flight, and for operating it in
respect to this manual and above information.
The helicopter’s owner is responsible for maintaining the aircraft in
approved airworthy condition and for maintaining this manual in a current
status in accordance with the list of current pages.
