This guide is meant to be a quick reference for the basic operating procedures and gauges of all the
aircraft, for both new and advanced users. This includes engine start up and engine management as well
as takeoff and landing. The pages have been formatted in such a way to make for easy printing. The
contrast has been adjusted so that it’s legible on even the cheapest of printers! I recommend opening
this guide on a second screen or printing out the few pages you need.
Be warned this is a work in progress. I am not an expert pilot and I welcome constructive feedback! If
you see an error please let me know on the forum thread.
