27. Chapter 8 – Flight Manuals FAA – Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge

28.  Mission:  Describe in writing how AFM/POH and documents such as ADs help a pilot to have ready access to pertinent information needed to safely fly a particular aircraft.  Describe what information can be found in the AFM/POH to help a pilot make good flight decisions.  Identify what preventive maintenance is allowed on the aircraft, and how a pilot can maintain his or her aircraft in an airworthy condition.  Describe why flight manuals and aircraft documentation are essential tools used to reach the goal of safe flight.  EQ: Describe the importance of Aeronautical Knowledge for the student pilot learning to fly. Today’s Mission Requirements

29. Introduction Each aircraft comes with documentation and a set of manuals with which a pilot must be familiar in order to fly that aircraft.

30. Introduction This chapter covers airplane flight manuals (AFM), the pilot’s operating handbook (POH), and aircraft documents pertaining to ownership, airworthiness, maintenance, and operations with inoperative equipment.

31. Introduction Knowledge of these required documents and manuals is essential for a pilot to conduct a safe flight.

32. Pilots Operating Handbook The POH is a document developed by the aircraft manufacturer and contains FAA approved Airplane Flight Manuals (AFM) information. The POH for most light aircraft built after 1975 is also designated as the FAA-approved flight manual.

33. Pilots Operating Handbook / Airplane Flight Manual The typical AFM/POH contains the following nine sections: General; Limitations; Emergency Procedures; Normal Procedures; Performance; Weight and Balance/Equipment List; Systems Description; Handling, Service, and Maintenance; Supplements.

34. Aircraft Documents Certificate of Aircraft Registration Before an aircraft can be flown legally, it must be registered with the FAA Aircraft Registry. The Certificate of Aircraft Registration, which is issued to the owner as evidence of the registration, must be carried in the aircraft at all times.

35. Airworthiness Certificate An Airworthiness Certificate is issued by a representative of the FAA after the aircraft has been inspected, is found to meet the requirements of 14 CFR part 21, and is in condition for safe operation.

36. Airworthiness Certificate The Airworthiness Certificate must be displayed in the aircraft so it is legible to the passengers and crew whenever it is operated. The Airworthiness Certificate is transferred with the aircraft except when it is sold to a foreign purchaser.

37. Airworthiness Inspections 14 CFR part 91, subpart E, requires the inspection of all civil aircraft at specific intervals to determine the overall condition. The interval depends upon the type of operations in which the aircraft is engaged.

38. Airworthiness Inspections All aircraft need to be inspected at least once each 12 calendar months, while inspection is required for others after each 100 hours of operation.

39. Minimum Equipment Lists (MEL) 14 CFR requires that all aircraft instruments and installed equipment be operative prior to each departure.

40. Minimum Equipment Lists (MEL) When the FAA adopted the minimum equipment list (MEL) concept for 14 CFR part 91 operations, this allowed operations with inoperative equipment determined to be nonessential for safe flight.

41. Maintenance Entries All pilots who maintain or perform preventive maintenance must make an entry in the maintenance record of the aircraft.

42. Maintenance Entries The entry must include: 1. A description of the work, such as “changed oil (Shell Aero-50) at 2,345 hours.” 2. The date of completion of the work performed. 3. The entry of the pilot’s name, signature, certificate number, and type of certificate held.

43. Aircraft Owner/Operator Responsibilities The registered owner/operator of an aircraft is responsible for: Having a current Airworthiness Certificate Certificate of Aircraft Registration in the aircraft.

44. Aircraft Owner/Operator Responsibilities Maintaining the aircraft in an airworthy condition, including compliance with all applicable ADs, and assuring that maintenance is properly recorded. Keeping abreast of current regulations concerning the operation and maintenance of the aircraft.

45. Aircraft Owner/Operator Responsibilities Notifying the FAA Aircraft Registry immediately of any change of permanent mailing address, or of the sale or export of the aircraft, or of the loss of the eligibility to register an aircraft.

46. Aircraft Owner/Operator Responsibilities Having a current Federal Communications Commission (FCC) radio station license if equipped with radios, including emergency locator transmitter

47. Chapter Summary Knowledge of an aircraft’s AFM/POH and documents such as ADs help a pilot to have ready access to pertinent information needed to safely fly a particular aircraft.

48. Chapter Summary By understanding the operations, limitations, and performance characteristics of the aircraft, the pilot can make good flight decisions. By learning what preventive maintenance is allowed on the aircraft, a pilot can maintain his or her aircraft in an airworthy condition.

49. Chapter Summary The goal of every pilot is a safe flight; flight manuals and aircraft documentation are essential tools used to reach that goal.
