LOW-G PUSHOVERS PROHIBITED
The placard specified in Robinson R22 SB 79 is an acceptable means of compliance, while a Dymo tape style placard is not.
- A Flight Manual revision is required to the effect:
FLIGHT AND MANOEUVRE LIMITATIONS
Low-G cyclic pushovers are prohibited
Note: FAA Priority Letter AD 95-11-09 refers.
Compliance: Prior to further flight after 7 June 1995.
