(+5) Interior Equipment 401. (a) Airplane Flight Manual, CAA (FAA) Approved, May 21, 1948. (b) Skiplane Supplemen t to Manual as follows: "Performance Information with Ski Installation: Climb: Skiplane climb performance is essentially equal to that of the landplane. Take-off and landing: Under the most fa vorable conditions of smooth packed snow temperatures approximating 30° F, skiplane take-off distance is essentially equal to the landplane distance. Landing distance is approximately 20% greater than the landplane distance. In applying the perfo rmance data, caution should be exercised in that lower temperatures or other snow c onditions will increase the ski friction and hence increase the take-off run and decrease the landing run." NOTE 1. Current weight and balance report including list of equipment included in certificated weight empty, and loading instructions when necessary, must be in each aircraft at the time of original certification and at all times thereafter (except in the case of air carrier operators having an approved weight control system). NOTE 2. The following placards must be displayed on the instrument panel in full view of the pilot: (a) "Operate in Normal or Utility Category in compliance with Approved Flight Manual.
