1-1. INTRODUCTION
C o m p l ia n c e w i th l im ita ti o n s s e c ti on i s
required by appropriate operating rules.
Anytime an operating limitation is exceeded,
an appropriate entry shall be made in
helicopter logbook. Entry shall state which
limit was exceeded, duration of time, extreme
value attained, and any additional information
essential in determining maintenance action
required.
I n t e n t i o n a l u s e o f t r a n s i e n t l i m i ts i s
prohibited.
Torque events shall be recorded. A torque
event is defined as a takeoff or lift, internal or
external load.
Landings shall be recorded.
1-2. BASIS OF CERTIFICATION
This helicopter is certified under FAA Civil Air
Regulation Part 6, Rotorcraft Airworthiness,
Normal Category.
206L1 ENGINE UPGRADE
This helicopter is certified under a
combination of FAR Part 27 and CAR Part 6
A i r w o r t h i n e s s S ta n d a r d s , f o r N o r m a l
Category Rotorcraft. Consult the Transport
Canada Type Certificate Data Sheet No. H-92
for details.
1-3. TYPES OF OPERATION
1-3-A. PASSENGERS
Basic configured helicopter is approved for
seven-place seating and is certified for land
BHT-206L3-FM-1
operation under day or night VFR non-icing
conditions.
1-3-B. CARGO
The maximum allowable cabin deck loading
for cargo is 75 pounds per square foot (3.7 kg
per 100 cm2). The maximum allowable
baggage compartment deck loading is 86
pounds per square foot (4.2 kg per 100 cm2)
with a maximum allowable weight of 250
pounds (113.4 kg). Refer to paragraph 5-6 for
securing of cargo and Figure 5-3 for tie-down
locations.
Cargo must be properly secured by tie-down
devices to prevent the load from shifting
un der a nticipate d fligh t a nd g rou nd
operations. If the mission requires both
passengers and cargo to be transported
together, the cargo must be loaded and
secured so that it does not obstruct
passenger access to exits.
1-4. FLIGHT CREW
Minimum flight crew consists of one pilot who
shall operate helicopter from right crew seat.
Left crew seat may be used for an additional
pilot when approved dual controls are
installed.
1-5. CONFIGURATION
1-5-A. OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
The Snow Deflector kit (BHT-206L3-FMS-7)
shall be installed when conducting flight
operations in falling and/or blowing snow.
Flight operations are approved with landing
gear crosstube fairings installed or removed.
18 DEC 2007———1-3

Refer to appropriate Flight Manual
Supplement(s) (FMS) for additional
limitations, procedures, and performance data
for optional equipment.
1-5-B. DOORS REMOVED
NOTE
All unsecured items shall be
removed from cabin when any door
is removed.
Flight with any combination of doors removed
is approved. With litter door removed, left
passenger door shall be removed. Refer to
paragraph 1-7 for airspeed limitations. With
door(s) removed, determine weight change
and adjust ballast if necessary. Refer to
Section 5.

CAUTION
LOADS THAT RESULT IN GW
ABOVE 4150 POUNDS (1882 KG)
SHALL BE CARRIED ON AN
APPROVED EXTERNAL LOAD KIT
AND SHALL NOT BE IMPOSED ON
LANDING GEAR.
Maximum approved internal GW for takeoff
and landing is 4150 pounds (1882 kg).
Minimum cockpit weight at fuselage station
65.0 is 170 pounds (77.1 kg) when operating in
accordance with the SELECTIVE PASSENGER
LOADING placard (Figure 1-3).

TC APPROVED
1-6-B. CENTER OF GRAVITY
The pilot is responsible for determining
weight and balance to ensure gross weight
and center of gravity will remain within limits
throughout each flight. Refer to Section 5 for
loading tables and instructions.
The standard helicopter (standard seating and
fuel system) is ballasted in accordance with
the Empty Weight vs. Center of Gravity chart
in the BHT-206L3-MM (BHT-206L1-MM with
206L1 Engine Upgrade). The SELECTIVE
PASSENGER LOADING placard (Figure 1-3)
shall be installed and may be used for loading
passengers only within appropriate weight
limitations without computing center of
gravity. At other times, pilot is to refer to
Section 5 to ensure gross weight and center
of gravity will remain within limits.
The helicopter with nonstandard fuel system
or seating arrangement is not ballasted in
accordance with the Empty Weight vs. Center
