Pilot's Operating Handbook

The Pilot's Operating Handbook describes the complete operation of aircraft and flight control systems. Read and understand this manual before operating Astro.

This handbook is not a substitute for adequate flight training. Training requirements can vary when operating in different countries or under different flight conditions. Always consult local regulations before flying Astro. In areas where there are no flight training requirements, it is the sole determination of the pilot-in-command as to whether he or she has the appropriate level of training or experience for a given flight. Always set and adhere to personal minimums and fly within your own capabilities.
