numbers
You can have all those numbers ratteling around inside your head if you want, but as a pilot suppose you are flying many different type airplanes. Will you memorize the structural numbers for each plane you fly? The way to fly many different type airplanes and still keep your sanity is to comply with the POH. What your interested in is gross weight, CG limits, VNE, VLE, VFE, VNA, operating limitations, and placards (spins prohibited etc etc etc). Since you write your own POH for experimental aircraft, The structural numbers are really nice to add to your document but that dont fly the plane. Does anyone know of a DAR who will sign off an RV9 for aerobatics?
This has nothing to do with aerbatics, but did you know, they are still looking for Amelia Earhart.
