1 General
1.1 Introduction
This Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) has been prepared as a guide to help you get the most out
of your airplane. It contains information about your airplane’s equipment, operating procedures,
performance and suggested service and care. Please study it carefully and use it as a reference.
The POH contains 8 sections. It also contains supplemental data supplied by Pelegrin Ltd.
The Appendix provides basic data and information of general interest. It also contains definitions or
explanations of symbols, abbreviations, and terminology used in the POH.
Throughout the Handbook, warnings, cautions and notes pertaining to airplane handling and
operations are utilized. These adjuncts to the text are used to highlight or emphasize important
points:
WARNING: Operating procedures, techniques, etc., which can result in personal injury
or loss of life if not carefully followed.
CAUTION: Operating procedures, techniques, etc., which can result in damage to equipment
if not carefully followed.
NOTE: An operating procedure, technique etc., considered essential to emphasize.
1.2 Basic Description
The Tarragon is an all-carbon-composite, tandem-seat, low-wing Aircraft, designed to set new
standards for safety, weight and performance.
The Tarragon has been designed and calculated ground-up by C.F.M. Air, in Turino, an Italian
Aerospace Design Company, under the guidance of Maurizio Cheli, former Astronaut and chief test
pilot for ALENIA.
The prepreg carbon components are manufactured by www.nexusprojectes.com, an accredited
producer of carbon structures in Barcelona/Spain.
The fuselage consists of a stressed skin monocoque structure in carbon fiber with bulkheads that
also form the seats.
The aerodynamic components, wings, tail plane and rudder, are constructed of carbon fiber spars
and ribs, bonded with carbon fiber external stressed skin.
The wing can only be detached from the fuselage as a complete unit, thereby eliminating the
weight of a wing-panel detach option and guaranteeing superior structural integrity.
The retracting landing gear is electrically actuated and is constructed of strong but lightweight
material including titanium

2.8 Fuel
Approved fuel grades are Mogas (min. RON 95) or AVGAS 100 LL. Recommended fuel for Rotax
type 912 and 914 engines is Mogas RON 98.
Note: Due to the higher lead content in AVGAS, the wear of the valve seats, the deposits in
combustion chamber and lead sediments in the lubrication system will increase. If the engine
is run on AVGAS more frequent oil changes are required. Therefore, use AVGAS only if you
encounter problems with vapor lock or if other fuel types are not available.
For more details, look at Operator’s Manual for all versions of Rotax 914 supplied with the engine.
Fuel tank capacity (liters):
WARNING: Take-off is prohibited if fuel level is below ¼of the fuel indicator.
NOTE: To ensure maximum fuel capacity and minimize cross feeding when refueling, always
park the airplane in a wings level, normal ground attitude.
2.9 Engine
YL-MFG is powered by EPA Power SA-R917Ti ULM engine. It is fuel injected for utmost safety and
low fuel consumption, and turbo-normalized, which assures constant maximum power of 100KW
from sea level to the service ceiling of 15’000 feet.
The ECU (Electronic Control Unit) automatically manages ignition, fuel injection and turbo,
calculating engine and external inputs, to offer optimum power and torque from take-off to the
service ceiling. For details refer to the EPA Power Operating Manual.

2.11 Engine Oil
Use only oil with API classification „SG” or higher. Heavy-duty 4-stroke motorcycle oils meet all the
requirements. These oils are normally not mineral oils but semi or full synthetic oils. Use of multi-
grade oils is recommended. Multi-viscosity grade oils are less sensitive to temperature variations
than single grade oils.
If the engine is mainly run on AVGAS more frequent oil changes will be required. See Service
Information SI-912-016, latest edition.
2.12 Coolant
Obey the latest edition of Service Instruction “SI-912-016” for the selection of the correct coolant.
Conventional coolant mixed with water has the advantage of a higher specific thermal capacity than
water-less coolant.
2.13 Flap Limitations
Approved takeoff range: 0 – 10° (“Flaps Up” – “Flap Position 1”)
Approved landing range: 0 – 35° (“Flaps Up” – “Full Flaps, Position 3”)
2.14 USB charging ports
USB 2.0 Specification charging ports provide 5V DC and up to 2.1 A charging Current. They are
meant to charge most mobile devices (mobile phones, tablets, cameras etc.) that are charged
through USB chargers.

3 Emergency Procedures
3.1 Introduction
Section 3 provides checklist and amplified procedures for coping with emergencies that may occur.
Emergencies caused by airplane or engine malfunctions are extremely rare if proper preflight
inspections and maintenance are practiced. En route weather emergencies can be minimized or
eliminated by careful flight planning and good judgment when unexpected weather is encountered.
However, should an emergency arise, the basic guidelines described in this section should be
considered and applied as necessary to correct the problem. In any emergency situation, the most
important task is continued control of the airplane and maneuver to execute a successful landing.
Emergency procedures associated with optional or supplemental equipment are found in Section 9,
Supplements.

3.3 Specific Emergencies
This section provides strategies and checklists in case of emergencies. Although emergencies due
to airplane or engine problems are extremely rare if proper pre-flight inspections and maintenance
are practiced, the guidelines described in this section should be considered and applied as
necessary to correct a specific problem. All air speed values in this chapter are presented in km/h
Indicated Airspeed unless indicated otherwise.

NOTE: If the propeller is wind milling, engine may restart automatically within a few seconds. If
the propeller turns in flight cause of wind milling, but its speed is not sufficient to start the
engine, then the electric starter is easily usable, advance throttle slowly from idle as required
to obtain smooth operation. It is never ever necessary to wait for the standstill of the propeller.

7. Light Winds, Heavy Swells - PARALLEL TO SWELLS
8. ELT - ACTIVATE
9. Canopy Latch - OPEN (just prior to touchdown)
10. Touchdown - LEVEL ATTITUDE AT ESTABLISHED 1.5 M/S DESCENT
11. Face - CUSHION AT TOUCHDOWN (with folded coat)

2. Heavy Objects (in baggage area) - SECURE (if possible)
3. Seat Belts - SECURE
4. THROTTLE - IDLE
5. SPEED – 62 Kts (115 km/h) IAS or less
6. IGNITION Switch - OFF
7. ELT - ACTIVATE
8. BRS - ACTIVATE, PULL HANDLE OUT
9. If engine is operative, it is possible to RESTART ENGINE and steer the airplane towards more
desired landing spot.
10. IGNITION Switch - OFF (if it was started for steering)
11. FUEL SHUTOFF Valve - OFF (pull full out)
12. MASTER Switch - OFF

NOTE: BRS activation over water - LDG Gear UP as it may prevent the airplane from
capsizing.
CAUTION: BRS needs at least 250FT (80M) of height to properly inflate the parachute. BRS
activation at lower heights reduces the chance of successful emergency landing.
