Introduction
C42 series aircraft are built in compliance with the airworthiness
requirements of various countries and are certified as Microlight,
Ultralight, Advanced Ultralight and Light Sport Aircraft.
To operate the aircraft the pilot must hold a license or certificate
appropriate to this category of aircraft. The aircraft is not to be flown
unless it is registered, carries registration markings in accordance with
the requirements of the country in which the aircraft is to be flown, and
has a Permit to Fly or certificate of Airworthiness valid in the country of
operation.
The aircraft is to be flown under daytime VFR conditions. Flight in
conditions other than daytime VFR without the correct aircraft equipment
and pilot ratings is extremely dangerous and can result in serious injury or
death.
Pilots holding licenses for other categories, even higher ones, are
required to be checked out by an appropriately qualified instructor prior to
flying this aircraft as it possesses characteristics that are unique to light
sport type aircraft. These characteristics include low inertia, susceptibility
to turbulence and wind gradient and special engine considerations.
The safety of all occupants, the aircraft and persons on the ground are
the sole responsibility of the pilot in command. Do not operate this aircraft
in a manner that would endanger the occupants, the aircraft or persons
on the ground.
Bear in mind that the engines used in C42 aircraft are not certified
aviation engines and thus may not offer the same safety standards found
in other classes of aircraft. Prepare your flight so that you can always
reach an emergency landing area should you experience engine failure.
On cross country flights, ALWAYS keep an emergency landing field in
sight.
Changes to the control system, structure, wings and engine are
prohibited.

These changes would invalidate any certificate of airworthiness or permit
to fly and as such would result in an insurance becoming null and void.
All operating difficulties and equipment failures should be reported to your
dealer or the manufacturer.
For fire safety reasons, smoking is prohibited on board of the aircraft.
