Flight manual <strong>DG</strong>-<strong>1000T</strong><br />
4.5.9 Flight in rain and thunderstorms<br />
With light rain the stall speed and the sink rate increases slightly and the<br />
approach speed has to be increased.<br />
Warning: Flights and especially winch launches in the vicinity of thunder<br />
storms should be avoided. Due to lightning discharge, carbon fibre structures<br />
may be destroyed.<br />
4.5.10 Cloud flying<br />
Cloud flying is only permitted without waterballast. Take care to fly smoothly<br />
and coordinated. It is prohibited to use a spin as a method for reducing altitude<br />
in cloud. In case of emergency, pull out the dive brakes fully before exceeding a<br />
speed of 200 km/h and dive with max. 200 km/h (108 kts.) to leave the cloud.<br />
Warning: Flying in or near thunderstorm-clouds is prohibited.<br />
Note: Cloud flying is not permitted in Canada and Australia.<br />

4.5.11 Aerobatics<br />
Caution: The <strong>DG</strong>-<strong>1000T</strong> is a high performance motorglider. Therefore the<br />
speed increase in the dive, especially in inverted flight is high.<br />
Training aerobatics therefore should only be executed after a rating with an<br />
experienced pilot, or if you can master the manoeuvres on other motorglider<br />
types.<br />
In any case don't try to execute the manoeuvres with entry speeds other than<br />
those listed.<br />
Caution: Do not make full or abrupt control movement above the manoeuvring<br />
speed VA=185 km/h (97 kts.). At speeds between VA and VNE= 270km/h<br />
(146 kts.) reduce the control movements accordingly. At VNE only 1/3 of the<br />
max. control movements are allowed.<br />
4.5.11.1 Category U, Utility<br />
Warning: Execute only the approved manoeuvres.<br />
Approved manoeuvres valid for all spans, but only without waterballast,<br />
powerplant retracted or removed and with the weight of the rear pilot<br />
compensated by ballast in the ballast box in the fin see section 6.8.7.<br />
