It includes the material required to be furnished to the pilot by the Federal Aviation Regulations and additional information provided by the airplane manufacturer and constitutes the FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual. This handbook is not designed as a substitute for adequate and competent flight instruction, knowledge of current airworthiness directives and applicable federal air regulations or advisory circulars. It is not intended to be a guide for basic fight instruction or a training manual and should not be used for operational purposes unless kept in a current status. Assurance that the airplane is in an airworthy condition is the responsibility of the owner. The pilot in command is responsible for determining that the airplane is safe for flight. The pilot is also responsible for remaining within the operating limitations as outlined by instrument markings, placards, and this handbook. Although the arrangement of this handbook is intended to increase its in-flight capabilities, it should not be used solely as an occasional operating reference. The pilot should study the entire handbook to become fami with the limitations, performance, procedures and operational handling characteristics of the airplane before flight. The handbook has been divided into numbered sections, cach provided with a finger-tip tab divider for quick reference. The limitations and emergency procedures have been placed ahead of the normal procedures, performance and other sections to provide easier access to information that may be required in flight. The Emergency Procedures Section has becn furnished with a red tab divider to present an instant reference to the section, Provisions for expansion of the handbook have been made by the deliberate omission of certain paragraph numbers, figure numbers, item numbers and pages noted as being intentionally left blank. NOTE In countries other than the United States of America, FAA operating rules may not apply. Operators must ensure that the aircraft is operated in accordance with national operating rules.

Within Europe, RAIM availability can be determined using the Garmin WFDE Prediction program or Europe’s AUGER GPS RAIM Prediction Too! at hitp://augur.ecacnay.com/augut! app/home, For other areas, use the Garmin WFDE Prediction program. ‘The Toute planning and WFDE Prediction program may be downloaded from the Garmin website on the internet, For information on using the WFDE Prediction Program, refer to Garmin WASS FDE Prediction Program, part number 190-00643, ‘WFDE Prediction Program Instructions’. For operations within the U.S. Nation Airspace System on RNP and RNAV procedures when GPS WAAS SBAS signals are not available, the availability of GPS RAIM shall be confirmed for the intended route of flight. In the event of a predicted continuous loss of RAIM of more than five minutes for any part of the intended route of flight, the flight should be delayed, canceled, or re-routed on a track where RAIM requirements can be met. For operations within European B-RNAV/RNAV-5 and P-RNAV airspace, if more than one satellite is scheduled to be out of service, then the availability of GPS RAIM shall be confirmed for the intended flight (route and time). In the event of a predicted continuous loss of RAIM of more than five minutes for any part of the intended flight, the flight should be delayed, canceled, or rerouted on a track where RAIM requirements can be met, When RAIM is required for GPS integrity (GPS WAAS SBAS not available) during instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), other non- GPS navigation equipment appropriate to the operation, must be available. When using GPS WAAS at an alternate airport, flight planning must be based on the minimums associated with the RNAV (GPS) LNAV, circling, or GPS or conventional approach procedure with “or GPS” in the title.

The GPS receiver must have fault detection and exclusion (FDE) capability and the pilot must perform a preflight RAIM prediction at the airport where the RNAV (GPS) approach will be flown. For the alternate airport, flight planning must be based on the minimums associated with the LNAV or circling approach. LNAV/VNAV minimums may be used if equipped with and using approved baro-VNAV equipment and RNP 0.3 minimums may be used on an RNAV (RNP) instrument approach, if specifically authorized, using baro-VNAV equipment, and the pilot has verified RNP availability through an approved WFDE prediction program. (e) Enroute RNP and RNAV routes including Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs) and Obstacle Departure Procedures (ODPs) and Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR) must be loaded into the flight plan from the current database in their entirety, rather than loading route waypoints from the database into the flight plan individually. Whenever possible, RNAV “Q” and RNAV “T” routes should be extracted from the database in their entirety, rather than loading RNAV route waypoints from the database into the flight plan individually. Selecting and inserting individual named fixes from the data- base is permitted, provided all fixes along the published route to be flown are inserted. Manual entry of waypoints using latitude/longitude or place/ bearing is prohibited. Navigation information is referenced to WGS-84 reference system, and should only be used where the Acronautical Information Publication (including electronic data and aeronautical charts) conform to WGS-84 or equivalent.

All wing icing inspection lights must be operative prior to flight into known or forecast icing conditions at night.
