The only documents supplied are two operator-made checklists, not a factory manual, so check every figure against the approved flight manual.
- Family-level maxima: up to 5 passengers, 1100 kg MTOW, 680 nm range, 116 kt cruise and 15000 ft service ceiling.
- Checklist speeds: rotate 63 KIAS, climb 70, Vno 128, Va 122, flaps limit 95, best glide 86 KIAS.
- The two checklist revisions disagree on glide ratio (6:1 vs 9:1) and on some Vx/Vy figures. Confirm them in the POH.
- Preflight includes oil level 6-8 quarts and draining both fuel drains and the filter drain.

Operating numbers from the checklists
Take-off power is set at 2700 RPM, with rotation at 63 KIAS and climb at 70 KIAS. Best rate of climb in cruise configuration is 78 KIAS and best angle is 65 KIAS. Final approach is 73-78 KIAS, with go-around at 73 KIAS. Max demonstrated crosswind is 25 KIAS.
What to check on inspection and run-up
Check oil at 6-8 quarts, propeller clearance of at least 25 cm, brake pressure, and the fuel drains and filter drain. At the 2000 RPM run-up, cycle the propeller twice (max drop 500) and check the magnetos (max drop 175, difference 50). Also check carb heat, EGT and the 24V electrical system. Starter use is limited to 10 seconds. Keep the tank fuel difference to 13 gal max.
Differences between checklist revisions
The 02.07.2025 list gives a glide ratio of 6:1 and take-off Vy 74 / Vx 63 KIAS. The 10.08.2025 list gives 9:1, adds a suction check at run-up, and lists landing Vy 70 / Vx 58 KIAS. Both are third-party checklists, so verify against the POH.

Safety notes
- Engine failure in flight: fuel pump ON, switch the fuel valve to the opposite tank, glide at 86 KIAS. If there is no improvement, land as soon as possible.
- Electrical fire or smoke: GEN/BAT master OFF, open cabin air, use the extinguisher if smoke continues, and land as soon as possible.
- Starter light staying on after start: throttle idle, mixture cut-off, magnetos OFF. The checklist says maintenance action is required.
