Wing Material
Each wing consists of a central light alloy torque box which carries all the wing
bending, shear and torque loads; an aluminium leading edge is attached to the
front spar while flap and aileron are hinged to the rear spar.
The torque box houses an integrated fuel tank and supports the engine mount.
Flight Control Material
Flap and aileron, respectively located inboard and outboard of wing and made up
of light alloy, are constructed with a central spar to which front and rear ribs are
jointed. Wrapped-around aluminium stressed skin panels cover all the structures.
Steel alloy attachments connect left and right wing to each other
Fuselage Material
The fuselage is constituted by a light-alloy semi-monocoque structure wrappedaround by stressed skin panels. Radome and stern fairing are of composite material.
Cabin and baggage compartment floor is a warping of beams and keelsons
supporting the seats guides and other components. Two spar frames support on the top the wings attachments and on the bottom the sponson beans sustaining the main landing gear. The forward frame, to which radome is connected, supports a steel trestle to which the nose landing gear is connected.
Vertical Empennage Material (Stabilizer)
The vertical tail is entirely metallic: vertical fin is made up of a twin spar with aluminium alloy stressed skin. Rudder, providing directional control of the airplane,
is made up of aluminium alloy.
The rudder is connected to the vertical tail at two hinge points. A trim tab system
increases directional stability of the airplane
Horizontal Empennage Material (Stabilator)
The horizontal empennage is an all-moving type (stabilator); its structure consists
of a twin spar to which front and rear ribs are jointed and it is covered by stressed
aluminium alloy skin. The trim tab completes the assy.

Rear Seat Limitation
During Taxi, Take OFF, Landing (including Emergency Landing), both rear seats
must be kept in the lowest and full aft position.
How are flight controls operated?
manually operated by a conventional
control column and rudder pedals, pulleys, cables, bellcranks and rods.
How is rudder and elevator trim operated?
Aileron trim?
Rudder & Elevator: Electrically operated servos
Aileron: Ground adjustable trim tab on the left aileron
How is trim monitored?
An indicator on the instrument panel
What to do in case of runaway trim?
Trim disconnect toggle switches are available.
How are the flaps operated?
Both flaps are extended via a single electric actuator controlled by a switch on the
instrument panel. Flaps act in continuous mode; the analogue indicator displays
three markings related to 0°, takeoff (T/O) and landing (FULL) positions
