    User Manual ATOS C Version: 29.01.2002 English translation: 9 August 2002 by Heiner Biesel Please read before flying! Congratulations on your purchase, and welcome to the ATOS world! Your ATOS C is a high performance glider. To fully exploit its capabilities while remaining well within safe limits, you should become thoroughly familiar with the contents of this manual. If you have any questions or need support, do not hesitate to contact the A.I.R. Team. Your A.I.R. Team Version: 01/02 1 1. Transport • By car The carbon fiber D-tube can be damaged by point loading. For safe transport the glider should always be supported by a large padded area. A ladder with several padded steps is one possibility. If the D- tube is supported at only two places, these supports need to be padded at least 4 inches in length, and wide enough to support the full width of the glider. Anything less is likely to result in transport damage, which can seriously reduce the strength of the main spar and the entire D-tube. Do not tie down the glider too tightly, and use wide tubular of flat webbing to minimize point loading. If the glider is likely to get exposed to rain, and especially to salt water, a watertight cover bag is strongly recommended. If the ATOS C gets wet, dry it as quickly as possible to avoid staining the sail, or causing corrosion of the metal parts. Exposure to salt water should always be followed by a thorough rinse in sweet water.

  • Phoenix Supplement
    CONSUMER AEROSPACE Phoenix Rocket Launched R/C Aerobatic Glider Assembly and Operation Manual Supplement HIS sheet contains some recent additions to the Phoenix instructions. Please read them before you Tbegin construction of your Phoenix rocket glider. The following three items are very important, and must be done before you fly your Phoenix. Mandatory Additions Trim Rudder Horn Screws OU must trim the screws that Ymount the rudder horn flush with the outside of the nylon plate. If the screws are not trimmed, it is possible for them to hit the L-7 guides on the launcher during lift off. The rudder may be damaged if this happens. The screws may be cut after assembly with a razor saw or a cut off disc in a Moto-Tool. If you use a cut off disc, be very careful to keep the heat generated by the cut off disc from melting the nylon plate. Trim these screws flush with nylon plate Elevator Pushrod Stiffness HERE are 8 pieces of 3/16” square balsa strip provided in the kit. Before you start assembly, examine all T8 pieces. Due to the high speeds encountered during a Phoenix launch, the pushrods need to be both straight and stiff. The stiffest one should be used for the elevator pushrod, and the next stiffest one for rud- der. The remaining pieces are used for the fuselage corner stock. We use the stiffest balsa that we can obtain for the pushrods, but if you feel the pushrods provided in your kit are not stiff enough, please contact us and we will provide substitutes.

    Annex to ED Decision 2011/003/R 10/05/2011 APPENDIX I AIRCRAFT TYPE RATINGS FOR PART-66 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE LICENCE Amendment 10 (Corrigendum) 10 May 2011 The following aircraft type ratings should be used to ensure a common standard throughout the Member States. The inclusion of an aircraft type in the licence does not indicate that the aircraft type has been granted a type certificate under the Basic Regulation and its Implementing Rules Regulation 1702/2003, this list is only intended for the maintenance purposes. In order to keep this list current and type ratings consistent, such information should be first passed on to the Agency at [email protected] in case a Member State needs to issue a type rating that is not included in this list. Notes: Note 1. For aeroplanes in lists 1 and 2, and helicopters in lists 11, 12 and 13, the table of Appendix I include 3 columns: o column 1: TC holder designation o column 2: aircraft model and, when available, the aircraft commercial designation, o column 3: aircraft designation for endorsement on the Part-66 licence. Only the designations in column 3 should be used for endorsing ratings on Part-66 licences. In the tables of the remaining lists 3 to 10 the TC holder designation is added. Note 2. When a modification is introduced by this Decision to an aircraft type rating or to an engine designation in the rating which affect licences already issued, the ratings on the AML licences may be modified at next renewal or when the licence is re-issued.
