AILERON

Figure 2: Wing structure

The ailerons control is actuated manually through the control stick. The ailerons are balanced
by balance masses.
The ailerons are hinged at two places on the rear spar of each wing.

Flaps provide the required extra lift to the wings when partially extended, and the required lift
and drag (to reduce airplane speed for landing) when fully extended. Each flap is hinged to
the rear spar of the wing at two locations.

Page 2 2nd Edition – Rev 0


03-00

AIRPLANE GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The horizontal empennage is an all-moving type (stabilator); its structure consists of a twin
spar to which six ribs are joined and it is covered by stressed aluminum alloy skin. The trim
tab completes the assy.

Figure 5: Stabilator structure

Page 5 2nd Edition – Rev 0


03-00
AIRPLANE GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Flight Controls

The flight control system controls the airplane in three axes. Ailerons, rudder and stabilator
are manually operated by a conventional control stick and rudder pedals, pulleys, cables,
bellcranks and rods.
Complete dual controls are provided for pilot and co-pilot.
Longitudinal control acts through a system of push-pull rods connected to the control stick
and moving the stabilator whose anti-servo tab works also as trim tab electrically operated.
Trim position is monitored by an indicator situated upper to left on the instrument panel.
A trim disconnect toggle switch is provided.
Aileron control is of mixed type with push-rods and cables; a cable control circuit is confined
within the cabin and it is connected to a pair of push-pull rod systems positioned in each main
wing which control ailerons differentially.
Stick controls the ailerons; its motion is transferred to the ailerons through a cable loop, up to
the interconnecting rod linking the two symmetrical push-pull rod systems which finally
transmit the motion to the ailerons.

Figure 6: Aileron system

Both flaps are extended via a single electric actuator controlled by a switch on the instrument
panel. Flaps act in continuous mode; the analog indicator displays three positions related to
0°, takeoff (T/O) and landing (FULL) positions.

AIRPLANE GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Rudder is operated through a cable system. The rudder has a trim tab adjustable on the
ground: allows aircraft directional trimming.

AIRPLANE GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Brake System

Wheels feature hydraulically actuated disc brakes (see Figure 10) controlled by a lever (1)
located on cabin tunnel between seats. Main gear wheels mount Air Trac type 5.00-5 tires
inflated at 23 psi (1.6 bar). Hydraulic circuit shut-off valve (2) is positioned between seats.
With circuit shut off, pulling emergency brake lever activates parking brake function.
Braking is simultaneous on both wheels (via a “T” shaped joint (6)).
Control lever (1) activates master cylinder (3) that features built-in brake-fluid reservoir (4).
The brake system is equipped with a non-return valve (5), which insures that braking action is
always effective even if parking brake circuit should accidentally be closed.

AIRPLANE GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Ventilation, Cabin Heat and Windshield Defrost

If required, using a handle, pilot allows ram-air to enter in the cabin via the two outlet ports
respectively located on the left and right side of the instruments panel.
The cabin heating system utilizes hot air coming from engine heat exchanger: here cold ram-air is
warmed by engine exhaust gases and then it is routed to the heating system hoses.
The cabin heat/defrost control knobs are positioned on the lower side of the LH instrument panel;
when knobs are fully pulled, cabin receives maximum hot air.
There is a switch on the instrument panel that allows to change heating/defrost. If heating mode is
activated, the hot air flows out from a pipe located in the lower part of the cabin, near the pedals.
When defrost is required, the air goes out from two outlet ports located above the instrument panel,
near the windshield.

The airframe inspection time limits may not exceed by one (1) month or +10%
FH, with a maximum of 60 FH.
Limit excess cannot be accumulated. If, for example, the initial 100 FH hour in-
spection is performed at 110 FH, the 600 hours inspection is still due at 600 FH
and the next 100 FH inspection shall be accomplished after 90 FH.
For engine and propeller, refer to related manuals.

All the tasks are grouped in function of ATA-100 code.

The first column shows the ATA code which the item belongs to, the second col-
umn shows the system name, the third column shows the maintenance task and
the last columns shows the task frequency required, namely:

– Column A : if a “X” is indicated in this column, the task must be performed at


each “A” inspection

– Column B : if a “X” is indicated in this column, the task must be performed at


each “B” inspection

– Column C : if a “X” is indicated in this column, the task must be performed at


each “C” inspection

05-30 LUBRICATION
Foreword

Proper lubrication procedures allow for a/c service life extension and for reducing the
frequency of extensive and expensive repairs.

In addition, periodic application of recommended lubricants, as detailed in the following


paragraphs, and observance of parts cleanliness will insure the maximum efficiency of
all moving parts.

Lubrication instructions concerning the locations, time intervals and type of lubricants
used may be found in the Lubrication Charts herein reported. Reference is made to the
inspection caps and removable parts shown on Chapter 06-10.

To insure the best results from the application of lubricants, the following precautions
should be observed:

- Use recommended lubricants. Where general purpose lubricating oil is specified, but
unavailable, clean engine oil may be used as satisfactory substitute.

- Check the components to be lubricated for evidence of excessive wear and replace
them as necessary.

- Remove all excess lubricants from components in order to prevent the collection of
dirt and sand in abrasive quantities capable of causing excessive wear or damage to
bearing surfaces.

If the aircraft stays inactive for long periods of time, it should be


lubricated every 90 days in accordance with Lubrication Charts.

Since the control cables are sufficiently coated by the manufacturer, additional protec-
tion for corrosion prevention is unnecessary.

Care must be taken when lubricating bearings and bearing surfaces with a grease gun;
insure that gun is filled with new clean grease of the grade specified for the particular
application before applying lubricant to the grease fitting.

2. Lubrication charts and schedule

The lubrication charts consist of individual illustrations for the various aircraft systems;
for each component to be lubricated, identified by a number, it is reported the frequency
of application. The same number is reported on the applicable component illustra-
tion/schematic which shows in detail the lubrication points.

For each item reference is made to the illustrations and, if applicable, inspection cap to
remove.

General rules

External hinges, bearings and bushings – for those items exposed to the external envi-
ronment, clean exterior surfaces before lubricating, lubricate, then apply a protective
coat of grease.

Lubrication points – wipe all lubrication points clean of old grease, oil, dirt, etc. before
lubricating.

Aerosol Grease – approved aerosol grease applying is allowed for all lubrication points,
unless otherwise indicated.

- Do not lubricate cockpit controls.


- Do not apply lubricant to rubber parts.
WARNING
- Do not lubricate control cables, this causes slippage.
Refer to Rotax Engine Maintenance Manual P/N 899372 for lub-
ricants approved to be used for engine parts.

05-40 CORROSION PREVENTION

It is important to keep the aircraft clean and to remove any collection of corrosive
agents such as oil, grease, dregs and other foreign matter. To avoid damage to finish, do
not use polishing detergents.
Original or equivalent corrosion prevention must be re-applied after any alteration or
repair.
If any trace of corrosion is detected it should be removed as soon as possible and part
should be immediately treated to prevent further corrosion.

(a) For steel parts, with the exception of highly stressed components or stainless steel,
it is possible to use abrasives, power brushes, steel brushes if operated manually and
steel wool.
Removing corrosion by products from highly stressed steel components (main gear steel
spring) requires particular care.

(b) For aluminum parts, treatment consists in mechanically removing as much as pos-
sible corrosion by products, applying corrosion inhibitor and replacing original finish.
Steel wool, emery or steel brushes (unless stainless steel) along with other highly abra-
sive material should not be used since steel or emery particles become embedded in the
softer material causing corrosion.
After cleaning surface corrosion, parts must be treated with an anti-corrosion product.

Tecnam suggests for steel and aluminum parts as anticorrosion product, ACF-50 or
products with similar technical features, which stops the existing corrosion and remain
effective for 24 months.
In low Salt or low Humidity Environments the ACF-50 have to be used every 24
months to prevent the presence of corrosion on aircraft. If the aircraft flies in high Salt
environments refer to the unscheduled maintenance and follow the application intervals.

Corrosion prevention Table.

Note: use the ACF-50 in closed hangar and make sure that the product is always under the
temperature limits indicated on the technical data sheets.

Note: remove all traces of salt water and salt water residue by thoroughly washing the air-
craft with fresh water after flights near sea and on airfields close to salt water area (sea or
salt lakes).

4. Flood damage, immersion in water

Aircraft recovered from partial or total immersion in standing water or flash


floods require an in-depth inspection and cleaning of both the exterior and interior
areas. Water-immersion increases the probability of corrosive attack, it removes
lubricants, deteriorates aircraft materials, and destroys electrical and avionics
components.
Prompt action is the most important factor following recovery of an aircraft from
water-immersion. Components of the aircraft which have been immersed, such as
the powerplant, accessories, airframe sections, actuating mechanisms, screws,
bearings, working surfaces, fuel and oil systems, wiring, radios should be disas-
sembled, as necessary, and the contaminants completely removed.

Nevertheless, these guidelines are general in nature and should be applied or var-
ied to fit the individual aircraft according to water level, exposure time and other
variables. Only those areas that might not be obvious to the mechanics are ad-
dressed.

Make all repairs and/or adjustments in accordance


with the appropriate Tecnam maintenance manual
and the component manufacturer’s maintenance
manual. Particular attention to silt, corrosion and
contaminants.

- Follow Tecnam and Rotax Maintenance Manual procedures. If there are any
questions regarding repairs or procedures, contact Tecnam.

- Determine the water level on the aircraft. Determine which operating and/or
electrical components have been exposed to the water.

- If the following items were immersed, inspect them closely to determine the ex-
tent of damage:

General

The aircraft is provided with means for longitudinal and lateral leveling. The aircraft may be
leveled while on the jacks (see Chapter 07 for jacking procedures), during the weighing
procedure while the wheels are on the scales, or while the wheels are on the ground during
other operations.

Leveling on wheels can be performed deflating the tires.

Be careful when you deflates the tires: do not deflate them to a


point where damage to the tire sidewalls could arise.

General

Before applying weighing procedure:

- make sure fuel tanks contain unusable fuel only;


- remove all loose items which are not included in the basic empty weight figures;
- make sure baggage compartment is empty.

All weighing operations must be conducted in a closed hangar and taking care that no air
currents pass over the airplane during weighing, otherwise inaccurate
readings could result.

If necessary, wash the airplane to remove accumulations of mud, dirt etc.

09-10 TOWING

MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

General

Move the aircraft on ground by pulling on the propeller blades close to hub. A tow
bar can be attached to fittings. Aircraft can be steered using the rudder or, for sharp
turns, by lowering the tail to raise nose wheel off the ground. In this case, owing to
the favorable CG location, a gentle push on the tail cone just ahead of empennage
surfaces is all that is needed. Avoid dragging nose wheel sideways and do not
attempt to counter any movement of the aircraft by handling it by its wing tips.

Do not use flight control surfaces as push points to move the aircraft.

CAUTION

When tow bar is used, it is advisable to turn the nose wheel


below 20° to prevent damage to the steering/rudder control
CAUTION
line. Do not steer roughly.

When the a/c is moved on the ground, either manually or by towing,


the Master Switch must be turned ON until the a/c is parked.

MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

General

Before attempting to taxi the aircraft, ground personnel should be checked out by a qualified
pilot or other responsible person. Engine starting and shutdown procedures should be covered
as well.

Taxiing requires two persons, one to maneuver the airplane and one to assist and act as an
observer.

Make sure that there are not personnel or materials near the
propellers and taxi area
WARINING

Procedure

1. Clear the area of personnel and equipment.


2. Disconnect mooring cables (if employed), remove wheel chocks and control locks.
3. Start the engines. Refer to AFM for engine starting procedure.
4. Release parking brake and start taxiing roll using only sufficient power to start roll.
5. Taxi forward a few feet and apply brakes to determine their effectiveness.
6. Taxi with propellers controls in full forward position.
7. While taxiing, make slight turns to ascertain the effectiveness of steering.
8. Observe wing clearances when taxiing near buildings or other stationary objects. If
possible, station a guide outside the aircraft to observe.
9. When taxiing on uneven ground, look for and avoid holes and ruts.
10. Do not operate the engines at high RPM when running up or taxiing over ground
containing loose stones, gravel, or any material that may cause damage to the propeller
blades.
11. After taxiing, set parking brake and shut the engines down. Refer to AFM for engine
shutdown procedure.
12. Connect mooring cables (if employed), install wheel chocks and control locks (if
installed).

10-10 PARKING

General

Under normal weather conditions, the airplane may be parked and headed in a direction that
will facilitate servicing without regard to prevailing winds. Ensure that it is sufficiently
protected against adverse weather conditions and presents no danger to other aircraft.

Procedure

1. Position airplane on levelled surface, headed into the prevailing wind, if practical.
2. Engage parking brake.

Do not engage the parking brakes at low ambient temperature, when an


accumulation of moisture may cause the brakes to freeze, or when they
become hot from severe use. In this case use wheel chocks.

In case of long time parking or overnight parking, it is recommended to moor the


a/c as shown on Para. 10-20.

Mooring is strongly recommended when the wind is more than 22 knots and the
a/c is completely refueled.
CAUTION

General

Servicing the aircraft includes the replenishment of fuel, oil, hydraulic fluid, tyre pressures,
lubrication requirements and other items required to completely service the aircraft.

The information in the following sections pertains to general maintenance procedures.

Detailed information on the engines will be found in the engine Maintenance Manual.

For inspection caps location, make reference to Chapter 06-10.

The Chapter 12 includes the following procedures:

SERVICING
12-10 FUEL SYSTEM – SERVICING PRACTICES

General

Each fuel tank is filled through a single filler cap located on the wing upper skin.

Each tank has a capacity of 50 Lt (100 Lt total fuel capacity), 0.5 Lt are unusable
(1 Lt total fuel unusable).

Observe all required safety precautions and use the fuel specified on the placard
adjacent to the filler cap and here reported:

APPROVED FUEL: MOGAS ASTM D4814


EN 228 SUPER (MIN RON 95)
AVGAS MIN GRADE 100LL

Do not refuel the aircraft near flames or sparks; direct contact of fuel
with the skin can cause disease. During refueling apply grounding and
make sure that a fire extinguisher is available in the area. Master switch
has to be turned OFF. Do not refuel with passengers on board.

Use only clean fuel servicing equipment.

Prolonged use of Aviation Fuel Avgas 100LL results in greater wear of


valve seats and greater combustion deposits inside cylinders due to higher
lead content. It is therefore suggested to avoid using this type of fuel unless
strictly necessary. Make reference to Rotax Maintenance Manual which
prescribes dedicated checks due to the prolonged use of Av-gas.

12-50 AIRPLANE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

General

The aircraft should be washed with soapy water. Abrasive detergents or alkaline soaps used
on painted or plastic surfaces could lead to scratches or cause corrosion of metal surface.
Cover areas where cleaning solution could cause damage.

How often the a/c should be cleaned depends on the environment in which it has
been operating. It is important that the airplane be kept in a clean condition and
repeated cleaning should be accomplished as often as necessary. The necessity for
cleaning is indicated whenever there is any appreciable amount of soil
accumulation, by the presence of salt deposits or other contaminants, by evidence of
paint surface deterioration and by the presence of excessive oil or exhaust deposits
or spilled electrolyte and deposits around battery area. Cleaning is required
immediately after exposure to adverse weather conditions, salt spray, after repairs
or service which left stains, smudges or other gross evidence of maintenance.

AIRPLANE CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
External Surfaces Cleaning Procedure

To wash the aircraft the following procedure may be used:

1. Flush out dirt


2. Apply cleaning solution with sponge or soft bristle brush
3. To remove stubborn oil and grease use a kerosene moist cloth
4. Where exhaust stains exist, allow solution to remain longer on the surface
5. Any good automotive wax may be used to preserve the painted surface.

Soft cleaning cloths or chamois leathers should be used to prevent scratches when cleaning or
polishing. A heavier coating of wax on the leading surfaces will reduce the abrasion problem
in these areas.

Avoid entry of solutions and flooding of soap into a/c openings such static
vents: it is recommended that openings and vents be plugged as a precaution.
Install protective caps if practical.

Windows Cleaning Procedure

1. Remove with water dirt, mud, etc. from external surfaces


2. Wash with warm soapy water or with an aircraft plastic cleaner, employ a
soft cloth or sponge using a straight rubbing motion. Do not harshly rub surfaces.
3. Remove oil and grease with a alcohol moist cloth.

Internal Surfaces Cleaning

The aircraft interiors should be washed with a mild soap and water, never use alcohol
based or flammable products.
The instrumentation as a whole must be cleaned with a humid cloth; plastic surfaces
can be cleaned with suitable products.
For not easily accessible parts, perform cleaning with a small brush; for seats
cleaning make reference to Section 12-40.

Engine Cleaning Procedure

For engine cleaning procedures, refer to Rotax Engine Maintenance Manual P/N

20-10 TORQUE DATA

MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

General

This paragraph gives the standard practices for torque loading nut and bolt combinations.

The importance of correct torque application cannot be overemphasized.

Undertorque can result in unnecessary wear of nuts and bolts, as well as the parts they secure.
Overtorque can cause failure of a bolt or nut from overstressing the threaded areas. Uneven or
additional loads that are applied to the assembly may result in wear or premature failure.

The following are a few simple, but important procedures, that should be followed to ensure
that correct torque is applied.

Be sure that the torque applied is for the size of the bolt shank, not for the wrench size.
Calibrate the torque wrench at least once a year, or immediately after it has
been abused or dropped, to ensure continued accuracy.
Be sure the bolt and nut threads are clean and dry, unless otherwise specified
Run the nut down to near contact with the washer or bearing surface and check
the friction drag torque required to turn the nut. Whenever possible, apply the
torque to the nut and not the bolt. This will reduce rotation of the bolt in the
hole and reduce wear.
Add the friction drag torque to the desired torque. This is referred to as “final
torque,” which should register on the indicator or setting for a snap-over type
torque wrench.
Apply a smooth even pull when applying torque pressure. If chattering or a
jerking motion occurs during final torque, back off the nut and retorque.
When torque is applied to bolt heads or cap screws, apply the recommended
torque plus friction drag torque.
Whenever possible, apply the torque to the nut and not the bolt. This will reduce
rotation of the bolt in the hole and reduce wear.
If special adapters are used which will change the effective length of the torque
wrench, the final torque indication or wrench setting must be adjusted accordingly.

Determine the torque wrench indication or setting with adapter installed as shown in figure
below.

MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

Inspection Technique

Aircraft control cable systems are subject to a variety of environmental conditions and forms
of deterioration that, with time, may be easy to recognize as wire/strand breakage or the not
so-readily visible types of wear, corrosion, and/or distortion. The following data may help in
detecting the presence of these conditions.

Cable damage

Critical areas for wire breakage are sections for the cables which pass through fairleads and
around pulleys. To inspect each section which passes over a pulley or through a fairlead,
remove cable for broken wires by passing a cloth along length of cable. This will clean the
cable for a visual inspection, and detect broken wires, if the cloth snags on cable. When snags
are found, closely examine cable to determine full extent of damage.
The absence of snags is not positive evidence that broken wires do not exist. The figure below
view A shows a cable with broken wires that were not detected by wiping, but were found
during a visual inspection. The damage became readily apparent (View B) when the cable was
removed and bent using the techniques depicted in View C.

CONTROL CABLES – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
External wear patterns

Wear will normally extend along cable equal to the distance cable moves at location. Wear
may occur on one side of the cable only or on its entire circumference. Replace flexible and
non-flexible cables when individual wires in each strand appear to blend together (outer wires
worn 40-50%) as depicted in in the figure below.

Internal cable wear

As wear is taking place on the exterior surface of a cable, the same condition is taking place
internally, particularly in the section of the cable which pass over pulleys and quadrants. This
condition, shown in Figure 3, is not easily detected unless the strands of cable are separated.
Wear of this type is a result of the relative motion between inner wire surfaces. Under certain
condition the rate of this type wear can be greater than that occurring on the surface. The
figures below are indicative.

Figure 2. - External cables wear

Page 202 2nd Edition – Rev 0


20-30
CONTROL CABLES – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Figure 3. - Internal cables wear

Cable fittings

100 hours standard inspection: check swaged terminal reference marks for any indication of
cable slippage within fitting. Inspect fitting assembly for distortion and/or broken strands at
the terminal. Check that all bearings and swivel fittings (bolted or pinned) pivot freely to
prevent binding and subsequent failure. Check turnbuckles for proper thread exposure and
broken or missing safety wires/clips. Pay particular attention to corrosion and “pitting” on
cable terminals, turnbuckles and cable fittings. Any corrosion or pitting found, requires
replacement of the corroded fitting and/or cable.

100 hours special inspection: for aircraft 15 years old or older, using a 10X magnifier,
visually inspect the entire surface of each cable terminal, turnbuckle, or other cable fitting for
corrosion or cracking. Inspect under safety wire or clips wrapped around the cable or fitting.
Any evidence of corrosion or cracking, however minute, is cause for replacement. A logbook
entry documenting the replacement of a cable terminal, turnbuckle, or other cable fitting
relieves the inspection requirement for that fitting only, until such time as that fitting has been
in service for 15 years.

CONTROL CABLES – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Pulleys

Inspect pulleys for roughness, sharp edges, and presence of foreign material embedded in the
grooves. Examine pulley bearings to assure proper lubrication, smooth rotation, freedom from
flat spots, dirt, and paint spray. Periodically rotate pulleys, which turn through a small arc, to
provide a new bearing surface for the cable. Maintain pulleys alignment to prevent the cable
from riding on flanges and chafing against guards, covers, or adjacent structure. Check all
pulley brackets and guards for damage, alignment and security.

Pulley wear patterns

Various cable system malfunctions may be detected by analyzing pulley conditions. These
include such discrepancies as too much tension, misalignment, pulley bearing problems, and
size mismatches between cables and pulleys. Examples of these conditions are shown in the
figure below.

CONTROL CABLES – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
20-40 SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

General

Safety locking allows for securing by various means any nut, bolt, turnbuckle etc. on the
aircraft so that vibration will not cause it to loosen during operation.

When applied, it prevents the disengagement of screws, nuts, bolts, snap rings, oil caps, drain
cocks, valves, and parts.

Specific data for other types of safety locking are described in the individual maintenance
practices.

Three basic methods are used in safetying; safety-wire, cotter pins, and self-locking nuts.

Wire, either soft brass or steel is often used on control cable turnbuckles and engine
accessory attaching bolts.

Cotter pins are used on any point where a turning or actuating movement takes place.

Self-locking nuts are used in applications where they will not be removed often. Repeated
removal and installation will cause the self-locking nut to lose its locking feature.

They should be replaced when removed.

SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Installation of Safety Wiring

General

When you remove a component always remember the size and type of wire used and the
method of locking used for assembly.

There are two methods of safety wiring; the double-twist method (that is most commonly
used) and the single-wire method used on screws, bolts, and/or nuts in a closely spaced or
closed-geometrical pattern such as a triangle, square, rectangle, or circle.

The single-wire method may also be used on parts in electrical systems and in places that are
difficult to reach. (See figures below.)

Figure 5. - Safety wiring: securing screws, nuts, bolts, and snap rings

Page 201 2nd Edition – Rev 0


02-40
SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Figure 6. – Safety wiring twisting by hand

When using double-twist method of safety wiring, apply following guidelines:

 .032 inch minimum diameter wire should be used on parts that have a hole diameter larger
than .045 inch.

 Safety wire of .020 inch diameter (double strand) may be used on parts having a nominal hole
diameter between .045 and .062 inch with a spacing between parts of less than 2 inches.

 When using the single-wire method, the largest size wire that the hole will accommodate
should be used.

 Copper wire (.020 inch diameter), aluminium wire (.031 inch diameter), or other similar wire
called for in specific technical orders, should be used as seals on equipment such as first-aid
kits, portable fire extinguishers, or emergency valves.

A secure seal indicates that the component has not been opened. Some emergency
devices require installation of brass or soft copper shear safety wire. Particular
care should be exercised to ensure that the use of safety wire will not prevent
emergency operation of the devices.

Page 202 2nd Edition – Rev 0


02-40
SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
There are many combinations of safety wiring with certain basic rules common to all
applications. These rules are as follows.

 Remove all pieces of the old lockwire from the component

 Use only new lockwire, never use lockwire more than once or damaged

 Do not drill additional safety wire holes

 When bolts, screws, or other parts are closely grouped, it is more convenient to safety
wire them in series.

 Drilled boltheads and screws need not be safety wired if installed with self-locking nuts.

 Safety wire must never be overstressed. Safety wire will break under vibrations if
twisted too tightly. Safety wire must be pulled taut when being twisted, and maintain a
light tension when secured. (See Figure 3.)

 Safety-wire ends must be bent under and inward toward the part to avoid sharp or
projecting ends, which might present a safety hazard.

 Check the units to be safety wired to make sure that they have been correctly torqued,
and that the wiring holes are properly aligned to each other. When there are two or more
units, it is desirable that the holes in the units be aligned to each other. Never
Overtorque or loosen to obtain proper alignment of the holes. It should be possible to
align the wiring holes when the bolts are torqued within the specified limits. However,
if it is impossible to obtain a proper alignment of the holes without undertorquing or
overtorquing, try another bolt which will permit proper alignment within the specified
torque limits.
 Never twist the wire ends off with pliers; and, when cutting off ends, leave at least four
to six complete turns (1/2 to 5/8 inch long) after the loop. When removing safety wire,
never twist the wire off with pliers. Cut the safety wire close to the hole, exercising
caution.
 Install safety wire where practicable with the wire positioned around the head of the
bolt, screw, or nut, and twisted in such a manner that the loop of the wire fits closely to
the contour of the unit being safety wired.
 When securing caps and drain cocks, the safety wire should be anchored to an adjacent
fillister-head screw (see Figure below). This method of safety wiring is applied to
wingnuts, filler plugs, single-drilled head bolts, fillister-head screws, etc.; which are
safety wired individually.

Securing With Cotter Pins

Cotter pins are used to secure such items as bolts, screws, pins, and shafts. The diameter of
the cotter pins selected for any application should be the largest size that will fit consistent
with the diameter of the cotter pin hole and/or the slots in the nut. Cotter pins must not be
reused on aircraft.

In using the method of cotter pin safetying, as shown in Figures below, ensure the prong, bent
over the bolt, is seated firmly against the bolt shank, and does not exceed bolt diameter. Also,
when the prong is bent over the nut, ensure the bent prong is down and firmly flat against the
nut and does not contact the surface of the washer.

SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Turnebuckles

All turnbuckles must be safetied with safety wire using either the double or single-wrap
method herein shown, or with any appropriately approved special safetying device complying
with the requirements of FAA Technical Standard Order TSO-C21.

Do not reuse safety wire.

Before securing turnbuckles, threaded terminals should be screwed into the turnbuckle barrel
until no more than three threads of either terminal are outside the barrel. After that, the
turnbuckle has been adjusted for proper cable tension.

All lock wire used in the safetying of turnbuckles should be carbon steel, corrosion- resistant
steel, nickel-chromium iron alloy (inconel), nickel-copper alloy (monel) or aluminium alloy.
For safety cable diameter of safety wire size and material, refer to the table below (dimension
in inches):

SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Double-wrap method

The method of double-wrap safetying is shown on fig. 14, methods A and B, and uses
two separate lengths of wire.

Procedure

 Run one end of the wire through the hole in the barrel of the turnbuckle and bend the
ends of the wire toward opposite ends of the turnbuckle.

 Pass the second length of the wire into the hole in the barrel and bend the ends along
the barrel on the side opposite the first. Spiral the two wires in opposite directions
around the barrel to cross each other twice between the center hole and the ends.

 Then pass the wires at the end of the turnbuckle in opposite directions through the
hole in the turnbuckle eyes or between the jaws of the turnbuckle fork, as applicable,
laying one wire along the barrel and wrapping the other at least four times around the
shank of the turnbuckle and binding the laid wires in place before cutting the wrapped
wire off.

 Wrap the remaining length of safety wire at least four turns around the shank and cut it
off. Repeat the procedure at the opposite end of the turnbuckle.

 When a swaged terminal is being safetied, pass the ends of both wires through the hole
provided in the terminal for this purpose and wrap both ends around the shank as
previously described. If the hole is not large enough to allow passage of both wires,
pass the wire through the hole and loop it over the free end of the other wire, and then
wrap both ends around the shank as previously described.

SAFETYING – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Another satisfactory double-wrap method is similar to the previous method, except that the
spiraling of the wires is omitted as shown on fig. 14, method B.

Single-wrap method

The single-wrap methods are described on fig 14, methods C and D.

Method C procedure

 Pass a single length of wire through the cable eye or fork, or through the hole in the
swaged terminal at either end of the turnbuckle assembly.

 Spiral each of the wire ends in opposite directions around the first half of the
turnbuckle barrel, so as to cross each other twice.

 Thread both wire ends through the hole in the middle of the barrel so that the third
crossing of wire ends is in the hole, again, spiral the two wire ends in opposite
directions around the remaining half of the turnbuckle, crossing them twice.

 Then, pass one wire end through the cable eye or fork, or through the hole in the
swaged terminals, in the manner previously described.

Wrap both wire ends around the shank for at least four turns each, cutting off excess wire.

Method D procedure

 Pass one length of wire through the center hole of the turnbuckle and bend the wire
ends toward opposite ends of the turnbuckle.

 Then pass each wire end through the cable eye or fork, or through the hole in the
swaged terminal, and wrap each wire around the shank for at least four turns, cutting
off excess wire.

 After safetying, no more than three threads of the turnbuckle threaded terminal should
be exposed.

COMM 1 AND 2 – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Garmin GMA 340

Garmin GMA340 is the audio management device used on P2002JF. The audio panel handles
internal audio communications (INTERCOM), external audio communications, those related
to the markers during ILS approaches and, eventually, those related to the on board musical
entertainment (compact disc devices etc).

Audio panel features LED-illuminated push button controls that allow audio selection of both
NAV and Comm audio. Large buttons activate the Comm microphone and audios to simplify
cockpit workload. MASQ processing reduces ambient noise from the avionics inputs. Comm
transmit indication is also provided. Speaker selection is available to monitor the aircraft
radios.

Figure 3: GMA340 front panel

Each microphone input (4 sockets are available for all airplane occupants – pilots and
passengers) has a dedicated VOX circuit to ensure that only the active microphone is heard
when squelch is broken. Special cabin noise de-emphasis circuitry enhances cockpit
communications.

A fail safe circuit connects the pilot’s left headset channel and microphone directly to COM 1
in the event of power loss or interruption.

The speaker (optional) is located on the pilot side lower panel:

Repair of the unit is on condition of failure. There are no periodic maintenance requirements
or scheduled equipment calibration. At regular intervals the following can be performed:

Cleaning

The front bezel, keypad, and display can be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth dampened with
clean water. DO NOT use any chemical cleaning agents. Care should be taken to avoid
scratching the surface of the display.

Battery Replacement

The 430W unit includes an internal battery that will last 5 to 8 years. The battery is used for
internal time clock and GPS system information. Regular planned replacement is not
necessary. The 430W unit will display a “Low Battery” and “Unit Needs Service” message
when replacement is required. Once the low battery message is displayed, the battery should
be replaced within 1 to 2 months.
If the battery is not replaced and becomes totally discharged, the 430W unit will remain fully
operational, but the GPS signal acquisition time will be increased. There is no loss of function
or accuracy of the 400W Series unit with a dead battery.
The battery is not user replaceable.

24-00 GENERAL

Primary DC power is provided by an engine-driven generator ( 20-Amps or 40-Amps) which,


during normal operations, recharges the battery.

“The generators do not operate in parallel since if the 20-Amps one is enable, the external
one will not be installed. If the 40-Amps generator is installed the 20-Amps one will be
disabled”.

Secondary DC power is provided by a battery (GILL G25) which provides the energy
necessary for feeding the essential electrical loads in the event of a generator failure. For
ground maintenance and/or starting, an external power socket is provided.

12V electrical power socket IS installed on the instrument panel.

Electrical power is distributed through:

 battery bus;
 avionics bus (optional).

Electrical wiring diagrams are addressed on Chapter 92.

POWER GENERATION – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The 20 Amps generator is built in the Rotax 912S engine and its weight is already included in
the engine empty weight.

A generator failure occurrence is shown on the upper/central panel by the lighting of an amber
caution light:

Figure 2. - Generator failure light

Battery

A battery provides the secondary source of DC power.


Two different types of batteries can be installed, depending on the a/c configuration (VFR
DAY/NIGHT).

 The battery installed on VFR NIGHT configuration is lead type one ( GILL
TELEDYNE G25) 12V 18Ah in 1 hour.
 The battery installed on VFR DAY configuration is a lead type one ( FIAMM
BATTERY PRODUCTS) 12V 19Ah in 20 hours.

The battery is located in the tail cone, right side, wing/fuselage rear attachments zone, in a
dedicated box easily accessible through the inspection cap F9; the box is vented and drained
thorough two hoses in order to avoid likely toxic gasses or fluid accumulate in the aircraft and
damage the adjacent structures.

The battery is connected to the battery bus by a 50 Amp protection breaker.

Near the battery is located the battery relay. It is activated by the Master Switch located on the
lower side of the instrument panel (pilot side): when the switch is set to ON, a ground signal
is applied to energize the battery relay.

In the event of a generator failure, the battery can supply the essential electrical loads.

Page 2 2nd Edition – Rev 0


24-10
POWER GENERATION – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
External power source

External 12V DC power can be connected to the airplane on ground through a special socket
on the right side of the airplane (cap 20).

To prevent the connection from being made with inverted polarity, the socket is designed in
such a way that, if incorrectly inserted, the connection to the system does not occur.

When DC external power is connected, the “ external power relay” automatically allows to
feed directly the battery bus.

Before external power is connected, Master Switch must be turned OFF; after connection of
external DC source, Master Switch can be turned in the ON position in order to recharge the
battery.

Voltmeter and Ammeter

The electrical system is equipped with a voltmeter located on the instrument panel, upper
right side; has a range of 8 to 16 Volt.

The battery charge/discharge current can be read on an ammeter located in the instruments
panel, lower right side.

24-20 POWER DISTRIBUTION

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The power distribution is operated by battery bus and, if installed, by avionic bus.

The Battery bus, is energized from two sources: the battery and generator. This allows the bus
for remaining active also in case of a fault on a single supply path.

The optional avionic bus (dependent of battery bus) can be installed; it provides the power
distribution to avionics and is energized from the battery bus

On the instrument panel LH lower area (pilot side – see Figure below)) there are three
switches, each one featuring ON and OFF positions. The MASTER SWITCH allows for
connecting, through the battery relay, the battery to its own distribution bus. GENERATOR
switch controls the field signal to the generator: setting the switch to OFF the generator is put
off-line. The AVIONIC MASTER allows for connecting avionic bus to main distribution bus.

SAFETY BELTS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
2. SAFETY BELT INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Excessive web wear, leading to cut or worn edges, is not allowed: replacement is
requested.

Yearly webbing inspection must be conducted to highlight evidence of:

Cut or worn edges


Damaged stitching
Broken fabric threads
Tearing
Excessive chafe marks, wear, fusing

The webbing must be replaced in these cases (frayed webbing stands for the broken filaments
from either the longitudinal yarns or the transverse ones):

Web edge cut or torn


Broken filaments which obscure the identity of any yarn viewed from a distance of 8
inches
Frayed zone more than 10% of the webbing width and 8 inches in length
Webbing with more than 15 broken yarns in locations other than edge
More than 15 stitches torn in a stitch pattern
Webbing frayed affecting proper restraint system operation

Page 201 2nd Edition – Rev 0


25-20
SAFETY BELTS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
3. SAFETY BELT CLEALING PROCEDURE

The restraint system cleaning, removing dirt and unwanted oil and grease, helps the system
itself to last longer and prevents corrosion of the metal parts.

The webbing can be cleaned with fresh water and a mild soap (machine washing not allowed)
using a sponge or a soft brush. Do not use water or soap on metal parts: these can be protected
by pieces of cloth during webbing cleaning.

The metal fittings are cleaned with a cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol.

25-30 EMERGENCY LOCATOR TRANSMITTER (ELT)

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Emergency locator transmitter ELT is postioned in baggage compartment, on the upper


floor. In the event of crash ELT activates automatically (automatic fixed ‘EF’
configuration), and transmits the standard swept ton on 121.5 MHz lasting until battery
power is gone. This 121.5 MHz signal is mainly used to pinpoint the beacon during search
and rescue operations.

In addition, for the first 24 hours of operation, a 406 MHz signal is transmitting at 50-second
intervals. This transmission lasts 440 ms and contains identification data programmed into
the beacon and is received by COSPAS-SARSAT satellites. The transmitted data is
referenced in a database (maintained by the national authority responsible for ELT
registration) and used to identify the beacon and owner.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Aileron control system uses push-pull rods and bellcranks inside wings and steel cables and
pulleys inside fuselage.

Layout of flight control system inside cabin includes two pairs of pulleys which transmit
movement from the two control sticks (1), linked in parallel by a rod (2), to a small bar (3)
located under the baggage compartment floor in correspondence with main pushrods (5)
issuing from the wings. Main rods (5) are connected to the small bar (3) using two pins (4).
The two main rods (5), are routed through the ribs and are attached at opposite end to a bell
crank (6) and a push-pull rod (7). The push-pull rod then crosses the wing’s fake spar to
transmit motion. Linkage length is adjustable.

27- 30 FLAPS

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The flap system is made up of an electric actuator , a shunt, and by a position


indicator instrument. The actuator is installed in the tail cone in correspondence
with the baggage bulkhead and controls a system of pushrods that initiates flap
extension. Micro-switches positioned within the actuator automatically interrupt
current flow when flaps reach “all-out” or “all-in” positions.
A bowden-type cable issuing from the flap actuator controls flap position indicator located
on the right side of the instrument panel.
Flap extension shunt is supplied by the primary bus bar through a breaker and is located on
the instrument panel.
Shunt must be activated until desired position is reached and read on instrument :0°, TO
(15°) or FULL (40°).
During flap retraction, shunt supplies the actuator until flaps are completely retracted.
Flap control system is push-pull type. The torque tube (1) is hinged to the cabin truss and
connects the two moving surfaces by two levers (2). An electric linear actuator (4) governed
by a switch on instrument panel controls the torque tube movements via a lever (3).
Two push-pull rods (5) are connected to the ends of the torque tube (1) and are located in the
area between wing and fuselage thus facilitating inspection.
The two push-pull rods controlling flap movement feature an adjustable linkage just before
the roller bearings allowing trailing edge alignment.

Figure 20. - Stabilator command exploded view

Stabilator trim tab control line is independent from stabilator one: it’s possible to control
stabilator trim tab even if stabilator fails. Stabilator trim is acted electrical with a switch
located on the control stick. The trim control is irreversible thanks its mechanic actuator (see
fig 21 item A - screw jack type): loss of trim control line does not lead to an uncontrolled
trim surface movement.

28-10 FUEL SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Fuel system is designed to supply fuel to the engine with suitable fuel flow rate and pressure for the
whole of certified flight envelope.

The fuel system is equipped with two aluminum fuel tanks integrated within the wing box and
accessible for inspection through dedicated inspection doors.

A multi-position fuel selector valve is located into the cabin. A gascolator with a drainage valve is
located on the firewall. Fuel level indicators, one for each tank and fuel pressure indicator are
located on instrument panel. Fuel feed is through an engine-driven mechanical pump (which is part
of the engine) and also through an electric pump that supplies adequate engine feed in case of main
pump failure.

Only a part of the fuel flow entering the engine-driven mechanical pump is delivered to the
combustion chambers. The return flow is conveyed in the left fuel tank through the return line.

Fuel System is constituted by the following main equipment installed:

 Fuel tanks (two, one for each wing box)


 Emergency electric fuel pump
 Fuel level transducers
 Fuel pressure transducers
 Fuel valves
 Gascolator
 Fuel filters (Located into Gascolator, into fuel pump and on fuel feeding pipe)

In the cockpit are located the following monitoring devices and controls:

 Electric fuel pump switch


 Fuel quantity indicators (two, one for each tank)
 Fuel pressure indicator
 Fuel selector valve (LEFT/RIGHT/OFF)

The fuel system general layout is shown in Figure 1

Page 1 2nd Edition – Rev 0

FUEL SYSTEM – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Figure 1 - Fuel system layout arrangement

The system is equipped with two aluminium fuel tanks (1) integrated within the wing box
and accessible for inspection through dedicated doors (2). Capacity of individual tank is 50lt
(13.5 Gal U.S.) . Each fuel tank is equipped with a drain valve located under the tank. Figure
2 illustrates the components of the fuel system.
In cabin, between the two pilots, is present a three positions fuel selector valve (5) (LEFT-
OFF-RIGHT). A strainer cup with a drainage valve (6) (Gascolator) is located below the
cabin’s floor near the firewall. Fuel level indicators for each tank are located on instrument
panel, each fuel tank is equipped with individual sensor-floats (3). Fuel feed is through an
engine-driven mechanical pump (8) and through an emergency electric pump (7). Electric
pump is equipped with a thin-mesh filter (7a) that can be accessed for inspection via the
closer cap (7b). An electric fuel pressure sender (12) is located on the engine’s side and fed
directly from the fuel manifold (11). The electric fuel pressure sender is connected to an
indicator on the instrument panel. The fuel manifold feeds the two carburettors, the fuel
pressure sender and the return line to the left tank. From the top of each tank there are pipes
that connect the fuel tank with the fuel vents (4) located on the wing tip trailing edge.

32-00 LANDING GEAR

GENERAL

Landing gear is a fixed tricycle gear with nose wheel steering.

This Chapter contains instructions for the maintenance of P2002JF landing gear system and
it addresses also the brake system descriptions with related maintenance practices.

The landing gear can divided in two parts:

- MLG (mean landing gear) – (1)


- NLG (nose landing gear) – (2)

Figure 1. – Airplane MLG and NLG

Page 1 2nd Edition – Rev 0


32-00
LANDING GEAR - GENERAL
32-10 MLG AND BRAKES

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The main landing gear (see fig.1) consists of two special steel spring-leaf struts (1) positioned
crossways to fuselage for elastic cushioning of landing loads.

Each spring-leaf (1) is connected to the fuselage via two keelsons (2,3). Two leather spacers
(4,5) are inserted between each spring-leaf and the keelsons. Two bolts (7) and nuts secure the
individual spring-leaf to the edge of the outer keelson (2) via a light alloy tie (6) while a
single bolt (8) and nut secures the inboard end of the leaf-spring to inner keelson (3).

3. ON-AIRCRAFT MAIN WHEELS INSPECTION

Whenever a maximum energy Rejected Take Off (RTO) has


occurred the intrinsic heat buildup can be quite severe and the
components are to be inspected and, if required, overhauled in
accordance with the procedures addressed on the Component
CAUTION
Maintenance Manual (CMM): Parker Cleveland P/N
AWBCMM0001-7, last issue.

On-aircraft maintenance of wheel assemblies is limited to inspection of wheel and brake


assemblies.
Perform on-aircraft inspection as follows:
(1) Remove wheel dust cover and visually inspect the wheels for corrosion, cracks, or
other visible damage.
(2) Check wheel nuts to be sure they are properly installed and have not worked loose.
Bolt threads should be flush to 1-1/2 threads extending beyond the nut.
(3) Visually inspect tyres for cuts, flat spots, and tread or sidewall damage.
(4) Check inflation pressure. Proper inflation will provide maximum tyre and wheel life.
(5) Pressure must be checked when tyres are cool.
(6) Inspect the brake disc for rust, excessive grooves, large cracks, or other visible
damage.
(7) Visually inspect the brake cylinder for corrosion, cracks, or other visible damage.
Check inlet fitting bosses and anchor bolt lugs for cracks.
(8) Check back plate attachment bolts to insure they are properly torqued and have not
worked loose. Gaps between the back plate and cylinder would be evidence of this.
(9) Check fit of brake cylinder anchor bolts in torque plate bushings for sloppiness. This
can be accomplished by grasping the cylinder and moving it; slight movement is
normal. Excessive movement is cause for removal and detailed inspection.
(10) Linings should be visually checked for extreme chipping on the edges. Lining
featuring a thickness of 0.100 inch (2.54 mm) must be replaced.
(11) Visually check torque plate for corrosion, cracks, loose anchor bolt bushings, or
other visible damage. Anchor bolt bushings must be flat against torque plate surface.
(12) Check for any brake fluid leaks. Linings which have been contaminated with fluid
should be replaced.
(13) If the slippage marks are not in alignment, a detailed inspection must be made, the
reason determined, and if necessary, the condition corrected before the next flight.

32-20 BRAKE SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The P2002JF can support two types of brake system to chosen by the customer:

 Lever Brake System


 Toe Brake System

LEVER BRAKE SYSTEM

The brake system consists of a brake fluid reservoir (1), a master cylinder (2) and two disc
brakes assemblies (3); an intercept valve activates parking brake (4). Braking action is through a
lever (5) located on cabin tunnel between seats. The brake system is equipped with a non-return
valve (6), which insures that braking action is always effective even if parking brake circuit
should accidentally be closed.

Figure 16. – Lever brake system

TOE BRAKE SYSTEM

The toe brake system consists of independent hydraulically actuated brake system for each
main wheel. A master cylinder is attached to each pilot’s rudder pedal (see Figure 36 below).
Hydraulic pressure, applied via the master cylinders, enters the brake via lines connected to an
inlet fitting on the caliper. The caliper operation description is given on Chapter 32-10.
A parking brake valve, mounted in correspondence of the cabin floor and operated by a knob
on the cockpit central pedestal, intercepts the hydraulic lines, once pressurized by toe brakes,
to hold the brake assemblies linings tightened round the main wheels brake discs.
Brakes can be operated from either pilot’s and co-pilot’s pedals: a single vented oil reservoir
feeds the pilot side master cylinders which are connected, via hoses, with the co-pilot’s side
ones (see system schematic reported on 17).

2. When working on electrical systems, make sure that the system is isolated:
do not operate on a system when it is activated unless otherwise
specified.
3. Do not use the circuit breakers as ON/OFF switches unless otherwise
specified.
4. Do not remove/install a component before checking that it is isolated.
5. Only use suitable insulated tools before testing operating systems.
6. Connectors must be protected from damage during maintenance: cap
them with dust covers.
7. If needed, renew wire markings: they have to be clearly identified.

Inspection and/or checking of the electrical system and components shall be conducted in
accordance with inspection intervals addressed on Chapter 05 and when a closed area is
opened for other maintenance purposes. Following inspections are applicable:

1. Check electrical wiring for chafing and cuts.


2. Check wire clamps and supports for security of installation.
3. Check wiring clearance from sharp metal edges.
4. Check electrical bonding for security of installation.

Stall Warning System

The stall warning system consists of an airflow sensor and of an electric horn.
The airflow sensor is mounted on the leading edge of the RH wing.
As the aircraft approaches a stall, the sensor activates the acoustic alarm system made up of
a cabin-installed horn.
In case of removal or replacement of the stall sensor, it is recommended to reinstall it so as to be
effective in detecting stall condition from 1 to 3 kts before the stall speed indicated in the Flight
Manual.
Never lacquer the stall warning sensor under any circumstance.

3. PITOT STATIC SYSTEM – DRAINAGE

For the static system, ports are located on the lowest part of the system and drainage
occurs through the ports themselves, so that water/moisture will drain towards the
exterior of the aircraft, or through the alternate port.
The dynamic system does not have a natural drainage path but it is fitted with a
parallel path with a dedicated filter which allows catching the moisture present in the
air, in order not to affect the instruments.
The following steps describe the procedure to check for dirt and replace, if necessary,
the mentioned filter (water trap).

34-20 ATTITUDE AND HEADING

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

This Section includes the portion of the system which uses magnetic or inertia forces to sense and
display the direction or attitude of the aircraft.

The magnetic compass is a self-contained unit requiring no external power source and installed on
the top of the windshield into the pilot primary field of view. A compass correction card is
provided.
Heading information is provided by directional gyro indicator.
An attitude indicator informs the pilot of the orientation of the aircraft relative to earth. It indicates
pitch (fore and aft tilt) and bank (side to side tilt).
The turn and bank indicator shows the rate of turn and the coordination (slip or skid) of the turn.
The rate of turn is indicated from a rate gyroscopically and the coordination of the turn is shown by
a heavy ball mounted in a curved sealed glass tube. No pitch information is provided.

2. MAGNETIC COMPASS

Foreword

Any time there is a maintenance or repair to the aircraft, it is recommended that the compass be
compensated. This is particularly true if there is work associated with the removal of old and/or
installation of new equipment in the instrument panel. New radios and relocation of speakers or
intercoms could affect the compensation required.
New hardware (i.e. screws, nuts, etc.) installed during maintenance can sometimes be the cause of
excessive errors if the hardware is steel or magnetic.
Loose electrical grounds, lighting, or extended periods of parking in North-South alignment on the
ramp can lead to the magnetization of the airframe itself. This is often evidenced by excessive
uncompensated compass error (more than 30-35 degrees). Center windshield post becoming
magnetized can lead to compensation problems. Degaussing the airframe component will solve this
problem.
In-flight compensation will achieve the best results.
Operators should consider removing any jewelry while compensating compasses. Such things as
watches, rings, and eyeglasses can affect the amount of compensation required.
If the uncompensated error is in excess of 30-35 degrees, troubleshoot for magnetization of aircraft
components or excessive electrical interference.

Place the calibrated magnetic compass at 10 meters from the a/c nose cone: make sure that
area is not affected from magnetic materials likely to influence compass deviation

POSITION DETERMINING – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
GPS

The Global Positioning System consists of a receiver and an antenna.


The GPS receiver is embodied within the GNS 430W/530W: it provides precise position, velocity,
and time measurements for enroute, terminal and non-precision approaches. The position, velocity,
and time determinations are computed by the receiver based on satellite signals provided by the
Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite constellation.

POSITION DETERMINING – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Transponder

On P2002-JF two kinds of transponder devices can be installed: the Garmin GTX 328 and the
Garmin GTX 330.

GTX 328 transponder

The Garmin GTX 328 is a Non-Diversity Mode S Transponder. The GTX 328 requires one antenna,
intended to be bottom mounted.
The GTX 328 Mode S Transponder is a radio transmitter and receiver that operates on radar
frequencies, receiving ground radar at 1030 MHz and transmitting a coded response of pulses to
ground-based radar on a frequency of 1090 MHz.
The GTX 328 is equipped with IDENT capability that activates the Special Position Identification
(SPI) pulse for 18 seconds.
The GTX 328 replies to ATCRBS Mode A, Mode C and Mode S All-Call interrogation. Mode A
replies consist of any one of 4,096 codes, which differ in the position and number of pulses
transmitted. Mode C replies include framing pulses and encoded altitude. Mode S interrogations are
selective. The Mode S transponders can respond to a single directed interrogation from the ground
station or another aircraft.
Ground stations interrogate Mode S Transponders individually using a 24-bit ICAO Mode S
address, which is unique to the particular aircraft. In addition, ground stations may interrogate a
GTX 328 for its Transponder data capability and the aircraft's Flight ID, which may be the
registration number or other call sign.
The GTX 328 is configured with all key controls. The layout of the front panel keys and displays
segregates the transponder‟s primary functions from the secondary functions.

GTX 330 transponder

The Garmin GTX 330 is a Non-Diversity Mode S Transponder and requires one antenna, intended
to be bottom mounted.
The general features are the same with respect to the GTX 328 device; additionally this unit also
features an altitude monitor, TIS traffic advisories and flight timers.

51-00 STRUCTURE – GENERAL

P2002 JF structure is manufactured with metal materials.

Dimensions and areas of the airplane are reported on Chapter 06; inspection caps are
described on Chapter 06 as well.

WING

Each wing consists of a central light alloy torque box which carries all the wing
bending, shear and torque loads; an aluminum leading edge is attached to the front spar
while flap and aileron are hinged to the rear spar.

Flap and aileron, respectively located inboard and outboard of wing and made up of
light alloy, are constructed with a central spar to which front and rear ribs are jointed.
Wrapped around aluminum stressed skin panels cover all the structures.
Steel alloy attachments connect left and right wing to each other.

The ailerons control is actuated manually through the control wheels, or automatically
through the autopilot system, if installed. The ailerons are balanced by balance
masses.

The ailerons are hinged at two places on the rear spar of each wing.

Flaps provide the required extra lift to the wings when partially extended, and the
required lift and drag (to reduce airplane speed for landing) when fully extended.

Each flap is hinged to the rear spar of the wing at three locations.

51-10 STRUCTURE CLASSIFICATION

The structure classification allows operators for determining the kind of repair required and
the standard procedure to apply.

Structural components are classified on the basis of their importance as follows:

Primary structure: structural components or assemblies which are necessary to sustain


design ultimate flight and ground loads or which provide essential support necessary to
maintain airplane safe operation.

Secondary structure: structural components which conveys loads paths from their point of
application to the primary structure.

Tertiary structure: structural components which does not contribute to the structural
strength of the airplane.

Following table provides structural components classification.

STRUCTURE CLASSIFICATION - GENERAL
51-20 DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS

This section deals with the procedure allowing for assessing damage and for choosing
consequently the repair method, if permitted.

STEP 1: STRUCTURE EXAMINATION

The damage classification starts with the examination of the structure.

Visual inspection is the most common form of inspection for aircraft. This inspection
procedure may be greatly enhanced by the use of appropriate combinations of
magnifying instruments, borescopes, light sources, video scanners, and other devices as
applicable.

Visual inspection provides a means of detecting and examining a wide variety of


component and material surface discontinuities, such as cracks, corrosion,
contamination, surface finish, weld joints, solder connections and adhesive disbonds.

Visual inspection is widely used for detecting and examining aircraft surface cracks,
which are particularly important because of their relationship to structural failures.

As general rule

 Clean the areas or surface of the parts to be inspected. Remove any


contaminates that might hinder the discovery of existing surface
indications. Do not remove the protective finish from the part or area prior
to inspection. Removal of the finish may be required at a later time if other
inspection techniques are required to verify any visual indications of flaws
that are found.
 Perform a preliminary inspection of the overall general area for
cleanliness, presence of foreign objects, deformed or missing fasteners,
security of parts, corrosion, and damage.

If the configuration or location of the part conceals the area to be inspected, use visual
aids such as a mirror or borescope.

Namely, examine the structure for:

– buckled, bulging, or dented skin;


– surface discontinuities as cracks and buckling, scores and scratches, drawn rivet
and bolt holes, delamination of composites.

Page 1 2nd Edition – Rev 0


51-20
DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS - GENERAL
For composite materials, tap testing is widely used for a quick evaluation of any accessible
aircraft surface to detect the presence of delamination: procedure consists of lightly tapping
the surface of the part with a coin, light special hammer with a maximum of 2 ounces (see
figure below), or any other suitable object.

The acoustic response is compared with that of a known good area.

A “flat” or “dead” response is considered unacceptable. The entire area of interest must be
tapped. The surface should be dry and free of oil, grease, and dirt. Tap testing is limited to
finding relatively shallow defects in skins with a thickness less than 0.80 inch.

The accuracy of this test depends on the inspector’s subjective interpretation of the test
response; therefore, only qualified personnel should perform this test.

 Examine castings and machined parts for cracks, if necessary use a non
destructive test method.

 Check rivets for security: cracked or flaking paint is usually a sign of rivet
disturbance.

 Care must be applied to the secondary damages, likely to occur when a


shock is sustained or when weakening of the structure allows for fatigue:
in the first case a detailed examination of the structure surrounding the
primary damage must be made to find any secondary damage which could
be located away from the primary damage. A sign of this could be a
structural deformation, drawn rivet and deformed bolt holes.

 Document all discrepancies by written report The full value of visual


inspection can be realized only if records are kept of the discrepancies
found on parts inspected. The size and shape of the discontinuity and its
location on the part should be recorded along with other pertinent
information, such as rework performed or disposition.

Page 2 2nd Edition – Rev 0


51-20
DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS - GENERAL
Herein is reported the typical kinds of defects:

Dent: a dent is depressed or hollow deformation without removal of material or change


in cross sectional area (see scratch & crack definition below). Stress wrinkles caused
by failure of a fastener are not considered a dent. Generally dents are caused by impact
from a smoothly contoured object. One characteristic that all dents should have is a
"pushed in surface" and a relatively smooth bottom where metal is not displaced,
folded or creased. Generally when evaluating dents, the width of the dent is the second
longest distance across the dent, measured at 90 degrees to the direction of the length.

Nicks: broken edges without cracks, but with portions of material removed.

Scratches: marks penetrating the surface that reduce the structural cross section of the
material but do not penetrate the complete thickness. The depth of a scratch may be
determined by use of an optical micrometer.

Cracks: fractures that would not separate the material into two parts if the surrounding
supports were removed; usually originating at edges, holes, or points where
concentrated loads are applied or where abrupt changes in cross-sectional area occur.
Cracks cause a significant cross-sectional area change. This damage usually has an
irregular line and is often the result of fatigue in the material. The length of cracks that
may be tolerated varies widely with material, structure, and application. No crack
should be regarded as negligible until the damage limits for the affected structure have
been determined. True crack length determination will generally require some form of
Non Destructive Testing such as Eddy Current or Fluorescent penetrants.

Holes: punctures penetrations or cutouts that breach the complete thickness of the
material and is fully surrounded by undamaged material. The size, shape, and distance
from edges and supporting structures must be considered when evaluating hole damage.

Abrasion: a damaged area that is the result of scuffing, rubbing, scraping, or other
surface erosion. This type of damage is usually rough and has an irregular shape.

Gouge: a damaged area where the result is a cross-sectional change caused by a sharp
object and gives a continuous, sharp or smooth groove in the material

Corrosion: deterioration of a metal because of an electrochemical reaction with its


environment. Depending on the type of corrosion, this deterioration may take the form
cracking, exfoliation, or erosion of the corroding material. Corrosion damage is
typically classified as light, moderate, or severe, depending on the extent of the
corrosion and the loading requirements of the corroded part.

It is important to keep the aircraft clean and to remove any collection of


corrosive agents such as oil, grease, dregs and other foreign matter. To avoid
damage to finish, do not use polishing detergents. Original or equivalent
corrosion prevention must be re-applied after any alteration or repair.If any
trace of corrosion is detected it should be removed as soon as possible and part
should be immediately treated to prevent further corrosion.

Page 3 2nd Edition – Rev 0


51-20
DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS - GENERAL
(a) For steel parts, with the exception of highly stressed components or
stainless steel, it is possible to use abrasives, power brushes, steel brushes if
operated manually and steel wool. Removing corrosion by products from
highly stressed steel components (main gear steel spring) requires particular
care.

(b) For aluminum parts, treatment consists in mechanically removing as


much as possible corrosion by products, applying corrosion inhibitor and
replacing original finish. Steel wool, emery or steel brushes (unless stainless
steel) along with other highly abrasive material should not be used since steel
or emery particles become embedded in the softer material causing corrosion.

After cleaning surface corrosion, parts must be treated with an anti-corrosion


finish prepared as follows: 4-liter solution containing 10% cromic acid with 20
drops of battery electrolyte. Accurate brushing with a sturdy fiber brush will
rid of most of the corrosion and insure that the anti-corrosion agent will
penetrate completely in the cracks.
Leave the cromic acid solution on the part for at least five minutes and then
remove excess with water or a damp cloth. Apply protective finish the same
day in which treatment begins.

Delamination: separation of the layers of material in a laminate, either local or


covering a wide area, that occurs in service. Composites may delaminate when impacted
and not exhibit visible damage.

DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS - GENERAL
STEP 2: DAMAGE EVALUATION

Foreword

After locating and identifying the area of damage, the damage must be evaluated on the
basis of allowed repairs addressed on Pages Block 200 (Maintenance Practices) of this
Chapter: all repairs not reported in this Manual are not allowed.
In these cases contact manufacturer who will indicate repair method or instruction for
structural component replacement.

Primary structural components

Damage to primary structure must be referred to the manufacturer.

Secondary and tertiary structural components

Damage to secondary and tertiary metal structure must be referred to the manufacturer.
Damage on secondary and tertiary structural composite components may be corrected
by a simple corrective action procedure, such as stop drilling cracks, but consideration
should be given to the economic viability of repair or replacement of the components.
If the damage is outside the allowed repair procedures addressed on Pages Block 200
(Maintenance Practices) it must be referred to the manufacturer.
In event of more than one damage close to a structural member, this case must be
referred to the manufacturer.
For the removal and installation procedures for components refer to the appropriate
Chapter of this Manual.

MAINTENANCE PRACTICES

This Chapter contains the following maintenance tasks description:

 Windshield and canopy


 Secondary and tertiary composite structural components: cracks stopping

Page 200 2nd Edition – Rev 0


51-20
DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
1. WINDSHIELD AND CANOPY REPAIR

Replace, rather than repair extensively damaged components, whenever possible, since
even a carefully patched part is not the equal of a new section, either optically or
structurally.

At the first sign of crack development, drill a small hole with a 1/8-inch drill at the
extreme ends of the cracks as shown in figure below.

This allows to localize the cracks and to prevent further splitting by distributing the
strain over a large area.
If the cracks are small (less than 1 inch), stopping them with drilled holes will usually
suffice until replacement is made.

Page 201 2nd Edition – Rev 0


51-20
DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
If a surface patch is to be installed (for damage larger than 1 inch in diameter), trim
away the damaged area and round all corners. Cut a piece of plastic of sufficient size to
cover the damaged area and extend at least 3/4 inch on each side of the crack or hole.

Bevel the edges as shown in figure below.

If the section to be repaired is curved, shape the patch to the same contour by heating it
in an oil bath at a temperature of 248 to 302 °F, or it may be heated on a hot-plate until
soft. Boiling water should not be used for heating.
Coat the patch evenly with plastic solvent adhesive and immediately place it over the
hole. Maintain a uniform pressure of 5 to 10 psi on the patch for a minimum of 3 hours.
Allow the patch to dry 24 to 36 hours before sanding or polishing.

Page 202 2nd Edition – Rev 0


51-20
DAMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND REPAIRS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
When using inserted patches to repair holes in plastic structures, trim the holes to a
perfect circle or oval and bevel the edges slightly. Make the patch slightly thicker than
the material being repaired and similarly bevel its edges. Install patches in accordance
with figure below.

Heat the plug until soft and press it into the hole without cement and allow to cool to
make a perfect fit. Remove the plug, coat the edges with adhesive, and then reinsert in
the hole. Maintain a firm light pressure until the cement has set. Sand or file the edges
level with the surface, then buff and polish.

2. COMPOSITE STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS: CRACKS
STOPPING

If the cracks are small (less than 25 mm), stopping them with drilled holes will usually
suffice until replacement can be made.
At the first sign of crack development, drill a small hole with a 1/8-inch drill at the
extreme ends of the cracks as shown in figure below.

This allows to localize the cracks and to prevent further splitting by distributing the
strain over a large area.
Apply sealant type 2 (see Chapter 51-30) if required to prevent moisture from entering
the material.

The alignment check scope is to verify aircraft symmetry measuring distance between the
reference points. It is recommended to effect measurements on both aircraft side , to compare
them and ensure they are within tolerance limits.

Reference points are:

A & A’ – On the upper side of the wing. It is the rivet in common between the
nailing line of main span and the one of the tip in composite materials. (It is the
external line).
B – On the top of engine reducer. To verify, it is necessary to remove the upper sie
of engine nacelle.
C & C’ – On stabilator back, it is the rivet in common between the nailing line of the
tip and the nailing line of tubular spar skin.
C & C’ – On stabilator back, it is the rivet in common between the nailing line of
external rib and the rear spar.

STABILATOR – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The stabilator control system is push-pull type and is controlled from the cabin via the
control sticks. Control is transmitted through a push-pull rod (1) linked to a bellcrank
(2) and a shaft (3) that runs through the tail cone supported at midsection by a bracket
(4) and connected with the stabilator’s torque tube through the aft bellcrank assembly
(5).All significant transmission elements such as bellcranks, pushrods, supports and
hinges can be easily accessed and inspected.

The aft bellcrank assembly consists of a steel tube (1) with welded horn assembly (2),
attachment for stabilator control shaft (3) and balanced weight bellcrank (4).
Counterweight is located at the end of a prong bolted to the torque tube and entering tail
cone through the tail-frame cut out.

Control system layout is a steel cable driven and circuit terminates on rudder pedals and
then on the nose steering lever.

Figure 11. - Rudder and steering control

Rudder pedals (1) are attached to two pushrods (3) that transmit steering motion to the
nose gear leg through a lever. This lever hinges on the engine mount and springs
connected to the steering lever via two small plates allow for a more effective
realignment of the rudder. Length of pushrods can be modified via adjustable ball and
socket connections.

56-10 WINDOWS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

P2002-JF external visibility is guaranteed by two side windows, one on each side, by a wide
windshield that allows pilot and copilot an overall visual for every flight maneuver and by
the two windows located on the canopy.
Windows are made of splinterless Plexiglas GS 233.
Windshield defrosting is accomplished by heating system: make reference to Chapter 21.

WINDOWS – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Being windshields and side windows made of acrylic plastics, when damaged, they are
usually replaced unless the damage is minor and a repair would not be in the line of vision.
Repairs usually require a great deal of labor. Replacement parts are readily available, so
replacement is normally more economical than repair.

57-10 WINGS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Each wing is connected to the fuselage by means of three pins attachment.


Wings are made up of a central light alloy torsion box (1); an aluminium alloy leading
edge (2) is attached to the front (main) spar (5), while flap (3) and aileron (4) are at-
tached to rear (fake) spar (6) through two hinges each.
The torsion box, as shown in Figure 1. and with reference to numbers in parenthesis,
consists of a main spar (5) and a rear spar (6) that make up its front and rear vertical
walls; a series of ribs (7) and wrap-around panels complete the structure. Front and aft
spars are complete with wing-to-fuselage attachment fittings (8). An integral fuel tank
is a part of the wing’s leading edge. It feature two inspection panels at its root and tip
side. On the upper side of each tank there are the filler cap and the fuel level sensor’s
access door. On the lower side a drainage tap is present. Fuel tank vents by means of a
tube exhausting in the wing tip’s trailing edge.
Aileron uses "piano-hinges" for direct attachment of aileron spar to wing spar. Flap
hinges are external to wing torsion box and feature ball bearings.

Figure 1. - Wing

Page 1 2nd Edition - Rev 0


57 -10
WINGS – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATIONS
The aileron is made of an aluminium spar to which a formed sheet metal skin and met-
al ribs are attached. Flaps are made of a centre spar to which front and rear ribs are
joined.
Aluminium skin panels wrap-around the flap structure.
Wing tips are moulded epoxy resin, fibreglass reinforced. At the inboard end of the
wing's leading edge is an integrated aluminium fuel tank with individual filler cap.

Wing station 0 (STA 0) is the intersection between the chord’s plane and the a/c
plane of symmetry.
The transversal dihedral angle between the chord plane and the a/c horizontal
reference is 5°.

75-10 LIQUID COOLING SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Standard Configuration

Figure 1. - Scheme of liquid cooling system

With reference to Figure 11., the liquid cooling system is a closed circuit with an over-
flow bottle (4) and an expansion tank (1). The coolant flow is forced by a water pump,
driven by the camshaft, from the radiator to the cylinder heads and then the coolant
passes on the expansion tank; the latter is closed by a pressure cap (3) fitted with pres-
sure relief valve and return valve. At temperature rise and expansion of the coolant, the
pressure relief valve opens and the coolant flows via a hose at atmospheric pressure to
the transparent overflow bottle (4). When cooling down, the coolant is sucked back into
the cooling circuit.
The system is fitted with an overflow bottle where surplus coolant is collected and re-
turned back into the circuit at the cooling down period.
The radiator is placed on the front end of the engine cowling, attached to the engine
mount.
A CHT sensor along with the related instrument located on the instrument panel (right
side).

NOTE: on ROTAX engine CHT is representative of liquid cooling system status.

75-10
LIQUID COOLING SYSTEM – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Figure 2. shows an optional configuration available with a thermostatic valve which
regulates coolant flow through the radiator.
The system has been realized accordingly to manufacturer’s requirements and it must be
able to supply engine with a proper quantity of coolant (55 lt/min) at temperatures not
above the maximum allowable (135°C).
The thermostatic valve, provided with two thermal sensors, allows an automatic adjust-
ment of temperature by controlling coolant flow to radiator and keeping it at tempera-
tures between 50°C and 135°C (green arch on CHT indicator).

Figure 4: CHT indicator

Thermostatic valve’s functioning is described below.

 Coolant temperature below 90°C;

The scheme in figure 4 shows coolant flow at T<90°C. The coolant in the overflow bot-
tle is sucked in the circuit.
Before it reaches the pump, the coolant passes through the thermostatic valve whose
thermal sensors, at temperatures below 90°C, deny access to radiator.
Once reached the pump, coolant is transferred to cooling circuit and, then, to the over-
flow bottle.

Page 4 2nd Edition - Rev 0


75-10
LIQUID COOLING SYSTEM – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Figure 5. - Coolant flow at T<90 °C
 Coolant temperature between 90°C and 100°C
Coolant circulation in this case is described by figure 5.

Figure 6. - Coolant flow at 90°C<T<100°C

As in the previous case, coolant is forced by pressure generated by the pump but in this
case, as effect of thermal expansion, first sensor (set to 90°C) is pushed down. In this
configuration, part of the coolant is driven through the radiator.

Page 5 2nd Edition - Rev 0


75-10
LIQUID COOLING SYSTEM – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
 Coolant temperature above 100°C
Figure 6 describes coolant flow when temperature is above 100°C.

Figure 7. - Coolant flow at T>100°C


Now, both the thermal sensors of the thermostatic valve are pushed down and all the
coolant flow is forced through the radiator.

78-10 EXHAUST

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Exhaust manifolds (1) are flanged to the engine and join the muffler separately (2).
The muffler also works as a heat exchanger (3) for carb. and cabin heat.

The exhaust system must always be checked for possible cracks (ref. Periodic
Inspection Table on chapter 5). Close attention must be given to the heat exchanger
system which should be totally disassembled for inspection as cracks would allow
noxious fumes to be mixed with carb and cabin air heat.

79-10 OIL SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The A/C is equipped with oil system that is designed to supply the engine with
the appropriate quantity of oil (13 lt/min) at a temperature not above that safe for
continuous operation.
The engine is equipped with a dry sump forced lubrication system, with a main
oil pump, with integrated pressure regulator and oil pressure sensor. The oil
pump sucks the oil from the oil tank via the oil cooler and forces it through the
oil filter to the designed points of lubrication. Drainage device is provided.
The main components of the oil system are:

 Oil filter
 Oil radiator
 Oil reservoir
 Thermostatic valve
 Oil drain valves
 Oil vent valves
 Oil filler
 Oil quantity measurement device (stick type)

Anyway the complete oil system of the A/C is composed of the following addi-
tional parts for each engine:

 Oil temperature sensor


 Oil pressure sensor

The above mentioned oil parameters are monitored by means of analogical


transducers, located on the instrument panel (right side).
By means of the thermostatic valve, which regulates the oil flow to the heat ex-
changer (oil radiator), the oil distribution follows two different paths depending
upon the oil temperature.
As hereinafter described, when the engine is cold, the valve limits the flow to the
radiator allowing for a faster engine warm-up. The same occurs in cold OAT
conditions. When the oil temperature rises, the flow to the radiator is augmented.

OIL SYSTEM – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Oil temperature below 90°C

The oil contained in the tank (item 1 in Figure 2) is sucked from the oil pump
(item 7) which pressurizes the circuit.
The oil pressure is monitored in the cockpit by means of a dedicated instrument.
The oil is then routed through the thermostatic valve (item 2) which is fitted with
two thermal sensors (item 3 and 4) allowing for a partial radiator passage occlu-
sion for temperature below 90°C.
Once came to the pump, oil is transferred to the engine lubrication circuit and
then to the cartridge filtering element integrated in the engine. The oil is then

Figure 1. - Rotax 912S oil circuit schematic (oil temperature below 90°C)

Oil temperature 90°C to 100°C


As above described, the oil circulates for effect of the pump (item 7 in Figure 3),
but in this case the first thermal sensor (item 3) set to 90°C allows for oil passing
through the radiator where oil is cooled.
It is then mixed with the other oil and it reaches the engine carter where it is fil-
tered. The oil is then gathered in the oil reservoir.

The schematic reported in Figure 3 shows oil circulation when the oil tempera-
ture reaches and overcomes a value of 100°C. In this case, because of the opera-
tion of the second thermal sensor, the oil as a whole is conveyed toward the ra-
diator.

Oil filter
The oil system is equipped with an oil filter (cartridge type) designed for full-
flow oil system in order to filter the contaminants from the circulated oil before
it passes through the bearing surfaces.

Figure 4: Rotax 912S filter cartridge (section)

The oil flow is forced in the filter by the oil pump by means of external holes; it
passes through the filtering element and it is conveyed into the circuit by means
of the central hole.

Radiator

The oil radiator is installed on the front end of the engine cowling and it is con-
nected on the engine mount.

OIL SYSTEM – DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Oil tank

The oil tank is installed behind the firewall protected from heat sources. Some
holes on the bracket structure allow for air ventilation (see figure below).

Figure 6. - Oil tank ventilation flow

The reservoir gathers also the oil coming from the breather hose and it is fitted
with a dipstick: see figure below, item 11. An hose, immediately located beneath
the filler cap, allows for oil relief discharged in a safe zone in the cowling far
from exhausts and other heat sources.

WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
1. WIRING INSTALLATION INSPECTION GENERAL RULES

Inspect wiring installations for damage, general condition, and proper function-
ing to ensure the continued satisfactory operation of the electrical system.
Typical checks are the following:
 Damaged, discolored, or overheated connections, wiring, and installations.
 Excessive heat or discoloration at high current carrying connections.
 Poor electrical bonding (broken, disconnected or corroded bonding strap) and
grounding, including evidence of corrosion.
 Dirty connections.
 Improper, broken, inadequately supported wiring and conduit and loose con-
nections of terminals.
 Poor mechanical or cold solder joints.
 Clamp retaining screws must be properly secured so that the movement of
wires and cables is restricted to the span between the points of support
 Wire and cables must be properly supported and bound so that there is no in-
terference with other wires, cables, and equipment.
 Do not use tapes (such as friction or plastic tape) which will dry out in service,
produce chemical reactions with wire or cable insulation, or absorb moisture.
 Ensure cable supports do not restrict the wires or cables in such a manner as to
interfere with operation of equipment
 Ensure that wires and cables are routed in such a manner that chafing will not
occur against the airframe or other components.
 Ensure that wires and cables protective covers in wheel wells and other areas
where they may be exposed to damage from impact of rocks, ice, mud, etc. are
undamaged
 Ensure that wires and cables, that are attached to assemblies where relative
movement occurs, are installed or protected in such a manner as to prevent de-
terioration of the wires and cables caused by the relative movement of the as-
sembled parts.

92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
2. WIRING REPLACEMENT GENERAL RULES

Wiring must be replaced with equivalent wire when found to have any of the fol-
lowing defects:

 Wiring that has been subjected to chafing or fraying, that has been severely
damaged, or that primary insulation is suspected of being penetrated.
 Wiring on which the outer insulation is brittle to the point that slight flexing
causes it to crack.
 Wiring having weather-cracked outer insulation.
 Wiring that is known to have been exposed to electrolyte or on which the insula-
tion appears to be, or is suspected of being, in an initial stage of deterioration
due to the effects of electrolyte.
 Check wiring that shows evidence of overheating (even if only to a minor de-
gree) for the cause of the overheating.
 Wiring on which the insulation has become saturated with engine oil, hydraulic
fluid, or another lubricant.
 Wiring that bears evidence of having been crushed or severely kinked.
 Wiring showing evidence of breaks, cracks, dirt, or moisture in the plastic
sleeves placed over wire splices or terminal lugs.
 When replacing wiring or coaxial cables, identify them properly at both equip-
ment and power source ends.
 Inspect wire and cable clamps for proper tightness. Where cables pass through
structure or bulkheads, inspect for proper clamping and grommets. Inspect for
sufficient slack between the last clamp and the electronic equipment to prevent
strain at the cable terminals and to minimize adverse effects on shock-mounted
equipment.

Page 202 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
3. CLAMPING GENERAL RULES

Wires and wire bundles are supported by using clamps or plastic cable straps in
accessible areas.
Clamps must be installed with their attachment hardware positioned above them,
wherever practicable, so that they are unlikely to rotate as the result of wire bun-
dle weight or wire bundle chafing. See figure below.

Page 203 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Clamps on wire bundles should be selected so that they have a snug fit without
pinching wires. See figure below.

Page 204 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
When wire bundle is clamped into position, if there is less than 3/8-inch clear-
ance between the bulkhead cutout and the wire bundle, a suitable grommet
should be installed as indicated in figure below.

Page 205 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
4. WIRES ROUTING

A wire bundle consists of a quantity of wires fastened or secured together and all
travelling in the same direction. Wire bundles may consist of two or more
groups of wires. It is often advantageous to have a number of wire groups indi-
vidually tied within the wire bundle for ease of identification at a later date: see
Figure below.

Comb the wire groups and bundles so that the wires will lie parallel to each other
and minimize the possibility of insulation abrasion.

Wire bundles must be routed in accessible areas that are protected from damage
from personnel, cargo, and maintenance activity.
They should not be routed in areas in where they are likely to be used as hand-
holds or as support for personal equipment or where they could become dam-
aged during removal of aircraft equipment.
Wiring must be clamped so that contact with equipment and structure is avoided.
Where this cannot be accomplished, extra protection, in the form of grommets,
chafe strips, etc., should be provided. Protective grommets must be used, wher-
ever wires cannot be clamped, in a way that ensures at least a 3/8-inch clearance
from structure at penetrations.
Wire must not have a preload against the corners or edges of chafing strips or
grommets. Wiring must be routed away from high-temperature equipment and
lines to prevent deterioration of insulation. Protective flexible conduits should be
made of a material and design that eliminates the potential of chafing between
their internal wiring and the conduit internal walls.
Wiring that must be routed across hinged panels, must be routed and clamped so
that the bundle will twist, rather than bend, when the panel is moved.

Page 206 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
The minimum radii for bends in wire groups or bundles must not be less than 10
times the outside diameter of their largest wire. They may be bent at six times
their outside diameters at breakouts or six times the diameter where they must
reverse direction in a bundle, provided that they are suitably supported.
RF cables should not bend on a radius of less than six times the outside diameter
of the cable.
Wiring should be installed with sufficient slack so that bundles and individual
wires are not under tension. Wires connected to movable or shock-mounted
equipment should have sufficient length to allow full travel without tension on
the bundle.
Wiring at terminal lugs or connectors should have sufficient slack to allow two
re-terminations without replacement of wires. This slack should be in addition to
the drip loop and the allowance for movable equipment. Normally, wire groups
or bundles should not exceed 1/2-inch deflection between support points, as
shown in figure below.

This measurement may be exceeded provided there is no possibility of the wire


group or bundle touching a surface that may cause abrasion. Sufficient slack
should be provided at each end to permit replacement of terminals, prevent me-
chanical strain on wires and permit shifting of equipment for maintenance pur-
poses.

Page 207 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
A drip loop is an area where wire is dressed downward to a connector, terminal
block, panel etc.
In additional to the service termination and strain relief, a trap or drip loop shall
be provided in the wiring to prevent fluid or condensate from running into the
above devices (see Figure below).

Wires or groups of wires should enter a piece of equipment in an upward direc-


tion where practicable. Where wires must be routed downwards to an unit of
electric equipment, the entry should be sealed or adequate slack should be pro-
vided to form a trap or drip loop to prevent liquid from running down the wires
in the electric unit.
The power feeder wires should be routed so that they can be easily inspected or
replaced. They must be given special protection to prevent potential chafing
against other wiring, aircraft structure, or components.
All wiring needs to be protected from damage. However, coaxial cables are par-
ticularly vulnerable to certain types of damage. Personnel should exercise care
while handling or working around coaxial. Coaxial damage can occur when
clamped too tightly, or when they are bent sharply (normally at or near connect-
ors).
Damage can also be incurred during unrelated maintenance actions around the
coaxial cable. Coaxial can be severely damaged on the inside without any evi-
dence of damage on the outside.

Page 208 2st Edition - Rev 0


92-10
WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
Always follow these precautions:
 Never kink coaxial cable.
 Never drop anything on coaxial cable.
 Never step on coaxial cable.
 Never bend coaxial cable sharply.
 Never loop coaxial cable tighter than the allowable bend radius.
 Never pull on coaxial cable except in a straight line.
 Never use coaxial cable for a handle, lean on it, or hang things on it (or
any other wire).

5. SPLICING GENERAL RULES

Splicing of power wires, coaxial cables, multiplex bus, and large gauge wire
must be approved by Tecnam.
Splicing is permitted on wiring as long as it does not affect the reliability and the
electromechanical characteristics of the wiring. Then splicing of electrical wire
must be kept to a minimum and avoided entirely in locations subject to extreme
vibrations.
Splicing of individual wires in a group or bundle should be located to allow pe-
riodic inspection.
Many types of aircraft splice connectors are available for use when splicing in-
dividual wires but the use of a self-insulated splice connector is recommended
(refer to Para. 6).
A non-insulated splice connector may be used provided the splice is covered
with plastic sleeving that is secured at both ends.
There should not be more than one splice in any one wire segment between any
two connectors or other disconnect points, except when an approved repair is
performed.
Splices in bundles must be staggered so as to minimize any increase in the size
of the bundle, preventing the bundle from fitting into its designated space, or
cause congestion that will adversely affect maintenance: see figure below.

Selection of proper crimping tool must be made in accordance with instructions


provided on Para. 6.

WIRING DIAGRAMS – MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
6. TERMINALS REPAIR AND CRIMPING TOOLS

Terminals are attached to the ends of electrical wires to facilitate connection of


the wires to terminal strips or items of equipment.
The selection of wire terminals should be in compliance with (or equivalent to)
those installed, unless differently approved by Tecnam.
Make sure that terminal blocks are provided with adequate electrical clearance
or insulation strips between mounting hardware and conductive parts.
A terminal has three major sections: Mating, Transition and Crimping sections.
The Mating Section, represents the section of the terminal that mates with a ter-
minal of the opposite gender. A Mating Section deformed during the crimping
process will reduce the connector's performance.
The Transition Section should be not affected by the crimping process. Other-
wise the connector's performance is affected.
Finally, just the Crimp Section is designed to be affected by the crimping opera-
tion being deformed so it can be attached to a wire. Ideally, all the work that you
do to crimp a terminal onto a wire occurs only in the Crimp Section.
If the crimp is too deep or not deep enough, it may break or cut individual
strands, or it may not be tight enough to retain the wire in the terminal or con-
nector.
Crimps that are not tight enough are also susceptible to high resistance due to
corrosion build-up between the crimped terminal and the wire.
The crimp height (i.e. the cross sectional height of the conductor Crimp Section)
is the most important feature of a good crimp.
This is why the crimp on terminal lugs and splices must be installed using a high
quality crimping tool. Tecnam recommends the use of the proper calibrated
standard tool provided with positioners for the wire size and adjusted for each
wire size. It is essential that the crimp depth be appropriate for each wire size.
Crimp tools must be carefully inspected:
(1) Insure that the full cycle ratchet mechanism is tamper-proof so that it cannot
be disengaged prior to or during the crimp cycle.
(2) If the tool does not function or faults are found, reject the tool and send the
tool to be repaired.
(3) The tool calibration and adjustments are made only by the manufacturer or
an approved calibration laboratory.

Hereinafter are classified and listed the different kinds of terminals and respec-
tive crimping tools:

INTRODUCTION

TECNAM developed a special modification kit for the P2002-JF aircraft, which
allows disabled pilots to fly the airplane from the left seat, without relying on the
rudder pedals for directional control and on the left throttle lever for engine
control. Installation of the modification kit does not modify the operational
capabilities of the airplane.
This AMM Supplement applies to aircraft which embody the Design Change
2002/141 “Rudder and Throttle Additional Controls”.
The Design Change introduces the installation of an additional hand control for
rudder and throttle controls. In addition, on the same hand control, it is installed a
guarded switch for the flap control.
This supplement to the Airplane Maintenance Manual has been prepared to
provide maintenance personnel with instructions for installation/removal and
maintenance of the central hand control kit for disabled pilots.
Herein are reported the sections impacted by the design change mentioned above.
The information contained in this Supplement either replaces, integrates or
supersedes the corresponding information in the basic Airplane Maintenance
Manual.
If the aircraft is fitted with the kit for disabled pilots, then it must be maintained
also in accordance with this Supplement to the Airplane Maintenance Manual.

NOTE
If the kit for disabled pilots is removed from the P2002-JF aircraft, this
Supplement to the Airplane Maintenance Manual is no longer applicable.

INTRODUCTION
CHAPTER 3 – AIRPLANE GENERAL DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION & GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

A. This Supplement is applicable to P2002 JF aircrafts incorporating Design Change


2002/141 “Rudder and Throttle Additional Controls”.
B. The Design Change MOD.2002/141 can be applied only on aircraft embodying the
Design Changes MOD.2002/146 “Stick mounted brake hand control”.
C. Aircrafts incorporating Design Change 2002/141 are provided with an additional
control, which allow disabled pilots to fly the airplane, without relying on the
rudder pedals for directional control.
D. The system is done by means of a control stick located in the center area of cockpit
panel. This stick acts both as rudder and throttle control. An electric-guarded flap
switch is also installed on the top of the additional stick grip. Moreover, a lever
installed on the left standard stick allows to operate the brake system without using
the standard handle of basic airplane.
E. The Change consists also of a permanent, factory-made installation of external
handles on canopy and reinforcement of the right wing leading edge to ease access
to the cabin.

COMPONENTS DESCRIPTION

A. The Design Change 2002/141 consists in the following main components:


1) Hand control. An additional hand control is installed in the central position to
the instrument panel and it is directly linked to the LH rudder pedal.
2) Flap control switch. An additional flap control switch is installed on the hand
control.
3) Flap switch selector. A circuit selector switch is installed on the instrument
panel.
4) External handles. External handles (respectively in left and right sides and one
in central position) are installed on the canopy.

FIGURE 3-3 EXTERNAL HANDLES

BRAKES SYSTEM (MOD.2002/146“Stick mounted brake hand control”)

In order to allow the control of the brakes system with hands always on stick and
central grip, an additional pump has been installed on the standard left stick; this
pump is connected to the airplane brake system and is operated by a hand operated
lever (see Figure A-4).
Pilot pushes lever to operate brakes. The hydraulic connection between the standard
pump and the additional lever is in series so that pulling one of the two handles
activate the brakes. The brake oil reservoir is connected with the highest-stick
mounted pump.

FIGURE 3-4 BRAKES SYSTEM

Page 5 SUPPLEMENT S2 2nd Edition – Rev 0


Chapter 3 – Airplane General Description
MECHANICAL SYSTEM

The mechanical system allows the pilot on the left seat to operate the rudder and the
throttle with the right hand. It is composed by an actuation handle terminating with a
joint and coupled with a detachable bushing, a series of supports and links to connect
the handle to the throttle and directional control of the standard configuration. The
longitudinal movements of the handle are transmitted to the left rudder pedal. The
angular movements of the handle are transmitted to the engine control via a bowden
driven wire.
The entire system is fastened to the fuselage structure through a support welded to the
truss of standard configuration (Figure C-3).
On the assy p/n 22-5-403-000 previously welded to the truss, is installed the assy 22-
5-410-000, which, through the assy 22-5-435-001 (control rod), is connected to
pedals (Figure A-5).

FIGURE 3-5 CONTROL COLUMN / PEDALS CONNECTION

In order to make the disassembling of the central hand control group easy, the
configuration features:
• The brake pump is installed on the LH stick to avoid, during the hand control
disassembly, also disconnecting of the braking system tubes; this installation is
described in this document and it is linked to MOD2002/146. There is no need to
disconnect this additional brake lever when disconnecting the central hand control
group;
• A mechanical interface p/n 22-5-445-000 (red round in Figure A-6) has been
introduced in order to allow the connection of removable hand control group. This
interface allows, through two AN3 (4.7mm diameter) bolts, a connection free from
free-play as the screws are assembled with 90° angle each other. The bolts used are
installed with nuts and cotter pins.

CHAPTER 55 – STABILATOR AND RUDDER

RUDDER AND THROTTLE ADDITIONAL CONTROLS

In order to install the additional control stick, the throttle control central unit in the
airplane basic configuration has been removed.
The stick installed on central instrument panel allows the control of the
rudder/steering line, throttle and flap system.

Directional Control

The central stick acts on a lever installed on the support located on the forward
fuselage structure and connected to the basic directional control system. The central
stick is then mechanically connected to the LH rudder pedal.

Movement along stick axis acts on rudder and steering:


 PUSH for rudder and nose wheel to left (A/C nose left)
 PULL for rudder and nose wheel to right (A/C nose right)

Throttle

The additional central stick can rotate around its axis and allows the control of the
engine power. The stick is mechanically connected to the airplane engine control
system, then actuation of the central stick moves the throttle lever on the instrument
panel (left side) and the friction knob operates on both standard and hand control
throttles

Movements around stick axis act on engine as follows:


 turn clockwise to increase power
 turn counter-clockwise to decrease power
Proper factory-set stops (approximately ±45°) warn pilot of the IDLE and FULL
positions.

In addition, the Change introduces the installation of a right throttle lever to provide
the engine control at an instructor seated on the right side.
The installation of the throttle lever on the right side is permanent and cannot
be removed when other elements of the kit for disabled pilots are removed from
the aircraft.

CHAPTER 24 – ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The electrical system currently installed on Tecnam P2002 series analog version
is based on a 14Vdc voltage distributed by the following energy busses:

 Battery bus
 Avionic bus

The battery bus is connected to the aircraft battery with the battery relay switch-
able with the Master Switch.

The primary source of energy is an alternator rated of 14,2-14,8 Vdc, 40 Amp


output, and it is fitted with an integrated voltage regulator, which acts to main-
tain a constant output voltage, and with an automatic overvoltage device protect-
ing the circuits and the electric components from an excessive voltage caused by
generator failures.

The alternative energy source is a lead type battery (Gill Teledyne G25), 12V
18-Ah in 1h, which provides energy for the engine start up or when an alternator
failure happens (Emergency condition) and is connected to the battery bus with a
50A protection breaker.
The battery is housed in a vented and drained dedicated box accessible through
an inspection cap located on the right hand fuselage side skin near the wing trail-
ing edge.

On the instruments panel, right side, two dedicated instruments, a voltmeter and
an ammeter are installed.

All the main electrical loads are connected to the battery bus. All other loads
(secondary avionic devices) are connected to the Avionic bus.
The Battery bus, which supplies the most important loads, is energized from two
sources: the battery and the alternator. This allows the bus for being active also
in case of an energy source failure.

CHAPTER 24 - MAINTENANCE PRACTICES
On the lower LH side of the instrument panel (see Figure below) the master
switches (Master and Generator) are located, beside the ignition key. On the
lower RH side of the instrument panel the Avionic Master switch is located.

Master switches and avionic master

The first two allow, respectively, to connect the battery through a relay to its
distribution bus and to provide the field signal to the alternator.

The second one allows, through a relay, the power supply of the loads connected
to the avionic bus.

The ignition switches (RH and LH) are activated through the ignition key which
also allows the engine starting.

If ignition key is on L,R or ON position, a propeller movement


can cause the engine starting with consequent hazard for people

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

General

Garmin G500 IFDS (Integrated Flight Deck System) is an avionics suite designed
to integrate pilot/aircraft interaction into one central system. The system combines
primary flight instrumentation and navigational information, all displayed on two
large color screens: the Primary Flight Display (PFD) and the Multifunction Dis-
play (MFD).

The system is composed of several units also known as Line Replaceable Units
(LRUs). LRUs have a modular design: some ones are installed directly on the in-
strument panel, some other ones are installed remotely in dedicated areas of the
a/c prescribed by G500 Installation manual.

Each LRU has a specific function, or sub-set of functions, that contributes to the
system’s operation.

In addition to G500 LRUs two analog pneumatic indicators for airspeed and alti-
tude are installed on the instrument panel to keep providing the pilot with main
flight information also in the event of G500 failure.

SUPPLEMENT SG-3
CHAPTER 31 – INDICATIONG SYSTEM
System configuration

The G500 system is an integrated display system that presents primary flight in-
strumentation, navigation, and a moving map to the pilot through a large format
display.
In normal operating mode, the Primary Flight Display (PFD) presents graphical
flight instrumentation (attitude, heading, airspeed, altitude, vertical speed, HSI),
replacing the traditional flight instrument cluster.
The Multi-Function Display (MFD) displays a full-color moving map with navi-
gation information, as well as supplemental data.
The below schematic shows a block diagram of G500 suite describing the main
system interconnections.

SUPPLEMENT SG-3
CHAPTER 31 - INDICATIONG SYSTEM
In the below sections each LRU is described.

GDU 620

The GDU 620 has dual VGA (640 x 480 pixels) 6.5-inch LCD displays. For the GDU
620, the left side of the GDU is the primary flight display (PFD) and the right side is the
multi-function display (MFD). For the GDU 620 RH, the right side of the GDU is the
primary flight display (PFD) and the left side is the multi-function display (MFD). The
PFD shows primary flight information. The MFD shows navigation and flight plan in-
formation, traffic, weather and terrain. An external configuration module is used, so no
configuration is required if the GDU 620 is replaced for any reason.

Page 5 2nd Edition - Rev 0


SUPPLEMENT SG-3
CHAPTER 31 - INDICATIONG SYSTEM
GRS 77 (AHRS)

The GRS 77 is an attitude and heading reference unit, or AHRS, that provides aircraft
attitude and flight characteristics information to the GDU 620. The unit contains ad-
vanced tilt sensors, accelerometers, and rate sensors. In addition, the GRS 77 interfaces
with both the GDC 74( ) air data computer and the GMU 44 magnetometer. The GRS
77 also utilizes GPS signals sent from the GPS/SBAS navigator. Actual attitude and
heading information is sent using ARINC 429 digital interface to the GDU 620 and op-
tional GAD 43 adapter.

GMU 44

The GMU 44 magnetometer senses magnetic field information. Data is sent to the GRS
77 AHRS for processing to determine aircraft magnetic heading. This unit receives
power directly from the GRS 77 and communicates with the GRS 77 using an RS-485
digital interface.

Page 6 2nd Edition - Rev 0


SUPPLEMENT SG-3
CHAPTER 31 - INDICATIONG SYSTEM
GDC 74A (ADC )

The GDC 74( ) air data computer receives information from the pitot/static system and
the GTP 59 outside air temperature (OAT) sensor. The GDC 74( ) is responsible for
providing pressure altitude, airspeed, vertical speed, and OAT information to the G500
system. The GDC 74( ) provides data to the GDU 620 and GRS 77 using ARINC 429
digital interfaces. The GDC 74( ) also communicates maintenance and configuration in-
formation to the GDU 620 using an RS-232 interface.

GTP59

It is the temperature probe which provides Outside Air Temperature (OAT) data
to the GDC74A.

Page 7 2nd Edition - Rev 0


SUPPLEMENT SG-3
CHAPTER 31 - INDICATIONG SYSTEM
Standby instruments

Two stand-by analog indicators, an airspeed indicator and an altimeter, have been
installed to provide the pilot with main flight informations also in the event of
G500 failure.
These instruments are pneumatic and they don’t need to be fed by the A/C electric
power.

ately after caging will be in error by the difference
between true vertical and actual aircraft attitude.
Small errors in caging erection will be corrected
by the indicator to true vertical in pitch and roll at
2.5° per minute minimum (5°/min. nominal).
