3 Ten Rules of Safe Flying 1) Observe the relevant regulations for microlight aircraft. 2) Do not overestimate your piloting skills and never show off for the sake of spectators. On the contrary, try to use suitable strips of land for practising the procedure of emergency landing. 3) Watch the weather all the time. Do not set off on a long flight if thunderstorms, fog or icing are likely to occur. 4) Pay attention to how much fuel you have left, not only by watching the gauge but also by comparing the current flight duration to the known actual fuel consumption rate. 5) Always choose the flight direction and altitude with respect to the possibility of making a safe emergency landing manoeuvre. 6) Always fly with sufficient speed margin, especially during the take-off and landing manoeuvres. 7) Do not make any aerobatics (e.g. wing-overs) even if you might feel that your piloting skills and the flying qualities and handling characteristics of the aircraft were good enough for that. 8) Under no circumstances exceed the maximum allowable speed (V ne ) even if it were just for a few seconds. 9) Do not underestimate navigation. Do not fly to unknown terrain without appropriate navigating preparation and tools (a map and compass). 10) Make a flight only if you are in good physical and mental condition.

4 Introduction The Allegro is a 2-seat microlight aircraft with strut-construction high-wing monoplane designed for sport, leisure-time recreational or tourist flying as well as for the training of new student pilots. Among its major merits we should mention are its excellent handling characteristics, high convenience for the crew and the fuel economy, which is due to the aerodynamic efficiency of the aircraft. If you pay the necessary attention to the maintenance, you will definitely appreciate its remarkably long service life. Our company guarantees the airframe for 100 flight hours or 2 years, whichever occurs sooner. The guarantee terms regarding the engine and the propeller are specified in the manufacturers manuals entitled ENGINE LOG BOOK and PROPELLER LOG BOOK, which form integral parts of this manual as its enclosures No. 1 and 2. During the flight you should always bear in mind that the aircraft is not equipped with a certified aircraft engine and therefore you should fly the aircraft in such a way that in case of a failure of the engine you could make a safe emergency landing manoeuvre. We wish you that each of your flights be finished with graceful landing. The microlight aircraft Allegro received the official Type Licence from the Light Aircraft Association of the Czech Republic No.05/2000 dated October Caution This Flight & Operating Manual must be thoroughly studied by every owner, aircraft business operator and pilot of this aircraft. The manual describes the necessary flight and maintenance procedures and it must be always present on board of the aircraft. This microlight aircraft is not subject to the certification by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Czech Republic and it is operated at the user s own risk. Amendments to the Manual Changes In case of any changes in the construction or operation of the aircraft, which every owner should be notified of, you will be sent the respective amendments to the text of this manual. The amendments will be numbered progressively and you shall be obliged to record them in this manual. If you sell the aircraft you are obliged to inform the BMAA, Fantasy Air UK and the BMAA inspector, who has the aircraft on his records, about the name and address of the new owner. The same applies when you change your address. In case of any damage of the aircraft you need to inform the BMAA and your inspector who can advise you about the best method of repair.

7 Brief Technical Description The Allegro aircraft is an aerodynamically controlled, two-seat side by side, high-wing microlight aircraft with the engine at the front and a T-shaped tail. Tricycle landing gear with main wheel brakes, steerable nose wheel, landing gear suspension by rubber pads. The aircraft is made of duralumin wings and empanage combined with laminate fuselage with a wing centre section/safety cage of welded steel tubes. The wing is divided in the middle into two halves, both of which are mounted to the centre section by means of bolts and supported by struts. The wing is designed as a rectangle with composite tips. The load-bearing part of the wing is represented by a torsion box consisting of a duralumin spar and the skin made of duralumin sheet. The spar flanges are made of duralumin L-sections, the spar web is made of duralumin sheet. The aerofoil section is maintained by ribs made of duralumin sheet. The ailerons and flaps are separated. The tail is T-shaped, its construction is similar to that of the wing. The fuselage is all-laminate, stiffened by means of several ribs. The engine mount and the nose wheel leg are attached to the front (= engine ) bulkhead made of laminate sandwich. The central (= pilot ) bulkhead serves for attaching adjustable seats, at the rear end of the fuselage there are two ribs made of laminate sandwich to stiffen the tail fin. The centroplane is welded together from duralumin tubes, the cockpit is covered by a transparent windshield made of polycarbonate splinter-proof material.(beware of fuel staining which damages this material!!!) Below the seats there is a fuel tank made of laminate, whose inner surface is covered by a conductive layer of graphite. The landing gear is front tricycle undercarriage. The wheels are equipped with brakes controlled by a mechanical lever located on the control stick. The nose wheel is steerable, it is connected to the foot control system. The nose wheel has a rubber suspension shackle as well. The powerplant of the aircraft consists of an engine, the type of which is specified in the ENGINE LOG BOOK, and a propeller, the type of which is specified in the PROPELLER LOG BOOK. The aircraft has single control, the control sticks is situated in the middle between the two seats. The foot control system consists of two sets of pedals(one set for either of the pilots). The flaps are actuated by means of an electric switch located at the top between the two pilots. Fantasy Air Page 7 of 30 Revison 1.4 October 2007

9 Aircraft Control FOOT CONTROL when the left pedal is depressed the aircraft turns to the left, both on land and in the air, and vice versa. HAND CONTROL (located in the middle of the cockpit) when the control stick is pulled backwards, the nose of the aircraft raises upwards (the angle of incidence increases); when the control stick is pushed forward, the nose of the aircraft goes down. When the stick is deflected to the left, the aircraft banks to the left and vice versa. THROTTLE LEVERS are located on the outer side of each seat. The more is the lever pushed forward, the more the engine speed increases. There is a screw for adjusting the mechanical friction of the lever s movement, located in the middle of the operating rod (under the central cover of the control panel). ENGINE IGNITION SWITCHES are located on the control panel in the middle of the front side of the cockpit. The ignition is enabled when the switch is set to the up position. MAIN WHEEL BRAKES are controlled by means of a lever located on the control stick. The lever is also equipped with a control of the parking brake. Manoeuvring and Gust Envelope Operation Limitations Allegro Limiting Speeds (never to be exceeded): Wing flaps lever position Flaps Deflection Never Exceed Speed (knots) Cruise position 0-4,5 V NE 118 Take-off 1 15 V FE 60 Landing 2 48 V FE 60 THESE SPEEDS MAY NOT BE EXCEEDED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!! Stall Speed at maximum take-off weight direct flight: Wing Flaps Position Engine Power Output Stall Speed IAS [knots] CAS [knots] 0 idle run idle run idle run Maximum Level Speed with extended flaps: Do not exceed this speed with the flaps extended! V FE = 60 knots Design Manoeuvring Speed: V A = 80 knots When flying faster than this you must not suddenly use the full deflection of the direction controls (rudder and elevator) nor do any quick manoeuvres otherwise a plane overload could occur. Do not exceed this speed at a turbulence! Fantasy Air Page 9 of 30 Revison 1.4 October 2007

10 Limiting Speed: VNE = 118 knots Do not exceed this speed in any event! Limiting Wind Speeds: Maximum Allowable Crosswind Speed (i.e. 90 degrees to the direction of the flight)...12 knots Do not try to take off or land with a tail-wind except for emergencies! Weights: Minimum Front-Seat Pilot Weight...65 kg Maximum Weight of the Crew and Fuel kg out of which max in the baggage compartment...10 kg Maximum Take Off Weight kg Typical Empty Weight kg Extreme Distances of the Centre of Gravity from the Wing Leading Edge Max CG forward position mm = 25 % Max CG rearward position mm = 35 % How to Determine the Aircraft s Centre of Gravity Position Place the aircraft with its wheels onto three scales. The aircraft must be in the cruise position, i.e. with its fuselage axis levelled horizontally. Determine the total weight of the aircraft (G) in kilograms as a sum of the weight readouts from the scales located under the main wheels (G h ) which is the total of the weight readouts from the scales located under the left and right main wheels/ and the weight readout from the scales located under the nose wheel (G p ). Measure the distance between the main undercarriage axis and the nose wheel axis (L p ) in millimetres. Measure the distance of the wing leading edge (using a plummet) from the main undercarriage axis (L a ) in millimetres. Measurements chart: Fantasy Air Page 10 of 30 Revison 1.4 October 2007

11 CALCULATION FOR DETERMINING THE AIRCRAFT S CENTRE OF GRAVITY POSITION: ] G p x L p L t = = the distance of the aircraft centre of gravity from the main undercarriage axis G (mm) G X t = L a - L t X SAT / Allegro/- b SAT = 1115mm X SAT = 14mm This distance expressed as the percentage of the mean aerodynamic chord (SAT) is: X % = 100 x X t /b SAT Determined values: b MAC =...mm L a =...mm * one pilot... kg G p =... / *.kg L p =...mm G h =. / *...kg L t =.../*...mm G =... / *...kg Xt =... / * mm X % =.../*...% The position of the aircraft s centre of gravity has to be from 25 % to 35 % of SAT. Note: The position of the centre of gravity of an empty aircraft almost exactly equals to that of an aircraft in the cruise position with one or two pilots and with the fuel tank empty or full. Fantasy Air Page 11 of 30 Revison 1.4 October 2007

12 Load Factors Maximum positive load factor in the centre of gravity g Maximum negative load factor in the centre of gravity g Cautions Besides the prohibitions ensuing from the relevant valid regulations it is also forbidden to: - start the engine by rotating the propeller manually; - get on or off the plane when the engine is running; - taxi with the cockpit open; - to manipulate the aircraft by holding its wing struts, horizontal tail unit or propeller. Kinds of Operation It is allowed to fly the aircraft only during the day (and on condition the earth is visible) = VFR and when no danger of ice accretion exists. Other kinds of flight are forbidden. MINIMUM OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE ALLOWED FOR TAKE-OFF : MAXIMUM OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE ALLOWED FOR TAKE-OFF : Emergency Procedures C C If the engine fails while the aircraft is less than 200 meters (600 feets) above the ground: At a small flight altitude: - by pushing the control stick forward bring the aircraft to the glide path; - make the landing in the original direction of the flight; - set the wing flaps to the landing position. At a greater flight altitude: - by pushing the control stick forward bring the aircraft to the glide path; - turn off the ignition and set the throttle lever fully backwards; - tighten the safety harness; - set the wing flaps to the landing position when the aircraft is approximately 30 meters above the ground; - make the landing manoeuvre in the open area free from any obstacles, against the wind if possible. If the engine fails while the aircraft is more than 200 meters (600 feets) above the ground: - by pushing the control stick forward bring the aircraft to the glide path; - check the ignition, throttle lever and the fuel gauge; - try to start the engine again; - follow the steps described above for the case when the engine fails at the flight altitude of 200 meters (600 feets) above the earth or less; In case of fire: - turn off the fuel supply; - set the throttle lever fully forward and wait until the engine runs out of fuel; - switch the ignition off; - do not try to start the engine again; - land the aircraft immediately by following the steps of emergency procedures In case of excessive vibrations: - adjust the engine speed to such RPM value which minimizes the vibrations; - make an emergency landing or if the vibrations keep increasing, turn the engine off and make an emergency landing with the engine stopped.

22 Aircraft Assembly There must be at least two people to assemble the aircraft, preferably three. Follow the instructions below: 1) Fit the horizontal tail unit onto the tail fin, connect them using a bolt having a diameter of 6 mm and secure by a slotted nut with a cotter pin. When you are fitting the tail plane onto the tail fin, it is necessary to connect the operating rod of the tail plane balancing surface using a pin having a diameter of 6 mm.you must not forget to secure the pin by a cotter pin, the arms of which must be bent carefully so that it could not get caught against the tail plane. Finally, attach the vertical bolt having the diameter of 6 mm. Do not forget to insert as many washers as necessary, because these washers determine the actual setting of the tail plane stabilizer. Using a torque wrench tighten the bolt of 6 mm and the vertical bolt to the torque of 10 Nm. 2) Prepare all the bolts for fixing the struts. The procedure is described below only for one half of the wing. Follow the same instructions when attaching the other half as well. First fit the strut onto its mount on the fuselage and insert the bolt. Lean the strut on the ground (put something soft under the strut to protect it from scratching). Two people then have to hold the wing and put it to the mounts. Don t handle the wing by touching its wingtips. It must fit in place easily. If it does not, the position of the wing in respect to the centre-section is not correct. Do not force as the mounts could become damaged. When the wing is in place, insert the front bolt. Then fit the strut onto the mount on the wing and secure by a bolt too. Next fit the back bolt through the back wing centre-section mount. All the time during the assembly somebody must be holding the wing at its end to keep it in the correct position. Using a torque wrench tighten the slotted nuts to the torque of Nm. This value must be observed or otherwise the bolts, which are of vital importance, could be damaged. Ensure all the nuts are secured by with cotter pins. Attach the pins for operating the flaps and also secure it by a cotter pin. Connect the ailerons control pins in both the LH and RH clevis in the cockpit and secure with a cotter pin. Using tailor s pins instead of appropriate split pins is dangerous and therefore strictly forbidden! 3) Attach the cover of the joint between the wing and the centre-section. Do not forget to connect both hoses of the Pitot tube! MANDATORY -Aircraft must be signed off by a qualified inspector before flight Aircraft Disassembly Follow the instructions described above (Aircraft Assembly) in reverse order. For the assembly and disassembly of the aircraft we recommend using special mounting wrenches, which can be ordered as optional accessories. They make the whole process of assembly and disassembly much faster and easier. Fantasy Air Page 23 of 30 Revison 1.4 October 2007

23 Aircraft Anchoring If the aircraft is parked in an open area, it is necessary to anchor it using ropes and anchoring tie downs. in order to avoid movement. Turn the aircraft with its nose against the wind, fix the ropes to the catches on the rings on the strut ends and to the noise wheel, and if necessary also to the rear end of the fuselage. Block the control stick to lock up the elevator and ailerons. Cover the cockpit with a soft sheet to avoid any damage of the Lexan windscreen. Place a wooden blocks in front of as well as behind the wheels All the fixing must be made in such a way that the aircraft may not become damaged. By anchoring the aircraft in a rainy weather or in a conditions at which water could condense in the airframe, it s needed, before the flight, to follow the steps as described in the article Aircraft Washing. Aircraft Repairs Minor repairs are considered to be the repairs of such components which do not affect the flight properties and the strength of the aircraft. These may be done by the owner himself. All the repairs of the torsion box, wing spars or tail units, struts and load-bearing parts of the airframe must be carried out by the manufacturer only. Aircraft Cleaning and Washing Openings of static inlet, stall speed indicator and Pitot tube must be covered before washing. Wash the aircraft with standard car-shampoo and water. Avoid using of any solvents and any cleaning agents which influence to duralumin and laminate are you not sure about. All insects stuck on the aircraft can influence distinctly performances and air characteristic of the aircraft. That s why it is necessary to remove them in time! The best way how to do it is to wet the surface first and let them soak for a while before we wiping it with a sponge. Avoid any using of raw sponges which could damage the aircraft surface unreparably. After drying the aircraft surface you could treat it by using any silicon-based car polish. Its use improve markedly the next aircraft cleaning. The cockpit transparent windshield cleaning needs special care. It must not be cleaned with any organic solvents or fuel which can cause permanent damage. Use a lot of water.. Never use the same water used for the complete aircraft cleaning already before. Use also a separate sponge and rag for drying of this windshield. Any eventual using of dirty water and coarse, dirty sponges and rags can cause a windshield surface crashes. After finishing the aircraft cleaning, check if there is no water on wings and tails. Remove the cowling and Check if there is no water inside the engine compartment, dry it if necessary. Remove the covers from openings of static inlet and Pitot tube, Check if there is no water there. By a very gently blowing into the Pitot tube the airspeed indicator pointer must move and return back onto the 0 position. When operating the aircraft on grassy areas, move the aero-dynamical wheel spats, time to time, and clean them. Mud layers inside the cover can cause excessive stress on the spats, due to weight, Fantasy Air Page 24 of 30 Revison 1.4 October 2007

24 Periodic Inspections of the Aircraft The inspections to be carried out before each flight and after each landing are described in the section Pre-flight Inspection. After the first 20 flight hours the guarantee inspection shall be carried out by the manufacturer s technician in the extent of Inspection A. After 50 flight hours (total) the Inspection A shall be made. After 100 flight hours (total) the Inspection B shall be made. After 150 flight hours (total) the Inspection A shall be made again. etc. The allowable tolerance for carrying out the respective inspection is ±5 flight hours. Inspection A - wing, horizontal tail unit and vertical tail unit skin Check; - Check of the torsion boxes; - mounting clearance Check; - Check of the free play of all direction controls; - direction control mechanical condition Check; - Check of the fittings; - Check of all riveted and bolted joints; - battery and wiring condition Check; - fuel system tightness Check; - landing gear condition and wheel alignment Check; - brake condition and efficiency Check; - Check of the condition of the wheel tyres and rims; - Check of the desludging of the fuel tank; - contingent engine and propeller inspections according to the manufacturers ENGINE LOG BOOK and PROPELLER LOG BOOK. - Inspection B - all the Check listed under Inspection A ; - checkout condition of bolts used for attaching the wing and struts - Check of the wear and tear of the bolts of the undercarriage and replacement if necessary; - Check of the silent-blocs used for attaching the engine; - brake lining Check and replacement if necessary; - Check of the wheel bearings The Inspection A may be carried out on request at the owner of the aircraft, which must be prepared at an airfield in order that a testing flight could be made. The Inspection B must be carried out at the manufacturer s premises. The orders for the inspections must be placed with the manufacturer at least a fortnight in advance. The manufacturer s technician shall make a record in the flight manual to acknowledge that the inspection was carried out and, as the case may be, he shall describe the repairs made. If the above inspection schedule is not adhered to, the manufacturer does not consider the aircraft to be airworthy and the manufacturer hereby disclaims any liability for the consequences arising there from.
