Section I
Limitations

PROHIBITED MANEUVERS
Aerobatic maneuvers and spins
Avoid rapid and large alternating control inputs, especially in combination with large changes in
pitch, roll or yaw (e.g., large sideslip angles) as they may result in structural failures at any
speed, including below VA
MANEUVERING FLIGHT LOAD LIMITS

1. Flaps and landing gear up 2.85 g to - 1.0 g

2. Flaps and landing gear down 2.0 g to - 0.0 g
NOTE
These accelerations may limit angle of bank in turns and
severity of pull-up maneuvers. See figure 5-16, Buffet
Boundary.
MAXIMUM APPROVED OPERATING ALTITUDE

45,000 feet
NOTE
1. Maximum altitude for dispatch with both autopilot and yaw
damper inoperative is limited to 31,000 ft.
2. If CABIN DOOR light comes on or obvious door seal defect
is detected, maximum altitude is limited to 41,000 ft.
OPERATING PERFORMANCE LIMITATIONS

Aircraft operation is prohibited when either ambient temperature or pressure altitude exceeds
that shown in Figure 1-2. In no case may performance be extrapolated beyond ambient tempera-
ture or pressure altitude for which data is shown in performance charts (Section V).
For operating at ambient temperatures or pressure altitudes below those shown in performance
charts (Section V) use performance for lowest data shown.

 TEMPORARY REVISION NO. 15

SUBJECT: Thrust reversers limitations change, to allow only IDLE DEPLOY thrust reverser
operation, pending resolution of issue concerning bolts installed in the upper
scissors fitting of the tail assembly.
This temporary revision and its limitations are removed when Alert Service Bulletin
No. 100-55-293 part A and part B is fully complied with.

This revision is applicable to all Astra serial numbers as follows:

004, 011-072 and 074-078

 Section I
Limitations

THRUST REVERSER LIMITATIONS

1. Do not exceed IDLE DEPLOY position.
NOTE
Nominal reverse N1 setting is 80% rpm at sea level,
standard day; it is modulated by electronic fuel control
computer according to OAT and altitude to maximum 87%
N1 rpm at 5000 ft.

2. Reverse thrust above IDLE DEPLOY position may only be used in situations critical to
bring the aircraft to a full stop.
3. Do not deploy thrust reversers for more than 1 minute maximum in a 15 minutes period.
4. Thrust reverser ARM switch must be OFF (ARM light off) above 180 KIAS.
