The Luftfahrt Bundesamt originally type certificated this aircraft under its type certificate Number 613. The FAA validated this product under U.S. Type Certificate Number 7A13. Effective September 28, 2003, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this product on behalf of Germany. The EASA type certificate is EASA.A.360. Equipment The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations (see Certification Basis) must be installed in the aircraft for certification. In addition, the following items of equipment are required: (a) Luftfahrt-Bundesamt approved Airplane Flight Manual (b) Stall warning indicator Import Requirements The FAA can issue a U.S. airworthiness certificate based on an NAA Export Certificate of Airworthiness (Export C of A) signed by a representative of the Luftfahrt Bundesamt on behalf of the European Community. The Export C of A should contain the following statement: ‘The aircraft covered by this certificate has been examined, tested , and found to comply with U.S. Civil Air Regulation Part 3 approved under U.S. Type Certificate No. 7A13 and to be in a condition for safe operation.’ Refer to the applicable bilateral agreement to verify eligibility for import into the United States of both new and used aircraft based on the scope of the agreement, to identify any required statements by the exporting authority on the export certificate of airworthiness (or equivalent document), and for procedures for coordinating exceptions to conformity statements on these documents. Refer to FAA Order 8130.2, Airworthiness Certification of Aircraft, for requirements for issuance of an airworthiness certificate for imported aircraft.

The FAA accepts such documents and considers them FAA-approved unless one of the following conditions exists: • The documents change the limitations, performance, or procedures of the FAA approved manuals; or •The documents make an acoustical or emissions changes to this product’s U.S. type certificate as defined in 14 CFR § 21.93. The FAA uses the post type validation procedures to approve these documents. The FAA may delegate on case-by-case to EASA to approve on behalf of the FAA for the U.S. type certificate. If this is the case it will be noted on the document. NOTE 1. Current weight and balance report, including list of equipment included in certificated empty weight, and loading instructions when necessary, must be provided for each aircraft at the time of original certification. NOTE 2. The following placard must be displayed on the instrument panel in full view of the pilot: "THIS AIRPLANE MUST BE OPERATED AS A NORMAL CATEGORY AIRPLANE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE OPERATING LIMITATIONS OF THE AIRPLANE FLIGHT MANUAL.
