Gilberti Flight Manual

[Tailwind]

I'm looking for the flight manual that goes along with the Gilberti conversion for my BC12D. My FAA inspector (who also has owned many Taylorcrafts) says that I should have one if I'm going to operate the airplane at the F19 gross weight. Anyone out there have one that they could loan me? Kevin

Remind him that it is the Model 19 gross weight. No flight Manual. Just markings and placards. What does he need to know.

Got a copy from a fine gentleman. Three pages from Gilberti Aviation, "must be kept in aircraft at all times". CAA approved May 26 1958. Thank You! Kevin

Wow, old thread resurrection!

Does the flight manual (or relevant documentation) not come with the STC?

Yes. There's some relevant documentation for the three equivalent configurations...-8 short mount BC12D-85, -12 long mount BC12D-4-85, and Model 19. Some is aircraft placards and markings and some is paperwork to be carried onboard.

I'd ask here for approved data: http://dc65stc.blogspot.com/2010/09/...ts-offers.html

Re: Gilberti Flight Manual

I'll dig through mine and see what's there, but best would be to access the current data from the STC holder for obvious reasons. It may be proprietary and maybe Terry Bowden at CAP can address that.
