Terminology2.1 Definitions:2.1.1 powered parachute, naircraft comprised of a flexibleor semi-rigid wing connected to a fuselage in such a way thatthe wing is not in position for flight until the aircraft is inmotion

7、 This aircraft has a fuselage with seats, engine, andwheels (or floats), such that the wing and engine cannot beflown without the wheels (or floats) and seat(s). Unique to thepowered parachute is the large displacement between thecenter of lift (high) and the center of gravity (low), which ispendul

8、um effect. Pendulum effect limits angle of attackchanges, provides stall resistance and maintains flight stability.3. Significance and Use3.1 The purpose of this specification is to provide theminimum information necessary for the proper identificationand operation of each light sport aircraft.4. In

9、formation Requirements4.1 The information given shall be included where appli-cable on the information plate as specified in 4.2. In addition,the documented operating and maintenance instructions speci-fied in Sections 5 and 6 are to be furnished by the manufactureror seller, at the time of initial

10、sale of each aircraft.4.2 Information PlateA manufacturer-issued fire proofinformation plate, printed in English or as defined by thegoverning civil aviation authority or agency in which theaircraft was initially sold, shall be permanently affixed to theaircraft in a visible location and shall be de

11、signed to remainlegible for the expected life of the aircraft. The informationplate shall be made of steel, and have the required informationeither stamped or engraved onto the plate.4.2.1 Serial NumberA manufacturer-issued unique identi-fying number or code affixed to the aircraft.4.2.2 Name and Ma

12、nufacturer, including the name of themanufacturers city, state, and country.4.2.3 Model NumberA manufacturer-issued unique iden-tifying number or code assigned to each manufactured type ofaircraft having the same structural design or components.4.2.4 Date of ManufactureThe date (month and year)deter

13、mined by the manufacturer that the aircraft met hisrequired design and manufacturing specifications.5. Aircraft Operating Instructions5.1 Each light sport aircraft must include an Aircraft Oper-ating Instructions which includes:5.1.1 Operating LimitationsThe instructions shall includelistings of all

14、 appropriate air-speed limitations for stall andmaximum speed, maximum wind limitations, weight andbalance, and power plant limitations.5.1.2 Operating DataThe instructions shall include infor-mation concerning normal and emergency procedures andother pertinent information.5.1.3 FormatThe Aircraft O
