 Serial Nos. eligible The United Kingdom Certificate of Airworthiness for export endorsed as noted under  
  "Certification basis" must be submitted for each individual aircraft for which application  
  for certification is made. 
 
 Certification basis CAR 10.  Type Certificate No. A2IN issued May 25, 1962 
  Date of Application for Type Certificate June 17, 1957. 
 
  Each aircraft and any replacement parts manufactured in the U.K. must be designated as  
  "import" and clearly labeled as such in accordance with CAR 10.30.  A U.S. Airworthiness  
  Certificate may be issued on basis of a United Kingdom Certificate of Airworthiness for  
  Export signed by a representative of the Ministry of Aviation containing the following  
  notation:  "The aeroplane covered by this certificate has been examined and found to  
  comply with the British Civil Airworthiness Requirements (1959) and the Special  
  Requirements for Herald Aircraft notified by the U.S.A. Government to the Government of  
  the United Kingdom and conforms to T.C. A2IN."  (This certification equivalent to CAR  
  4b effective December 31, 1953, plus Amendments 4b-1 thru 4b-11 and SR-422B dated  
  July 9, 1959.) 
 
  Compliance with the ditching requirements has been demonstrated. 
 
 Equipment The basic required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations (see  
  Certification Basis) must be installed in the aircraft for certification.  The following  
  additional equipment is required: 
  (a) Stall Warning Indicator, Kelvin & Hughes Type No. KSB.0213. 
  (b) Stick Shaker, Western Manufacturing Type No. CCV.161. 
 
NOTE 1. (a) 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. 
  (b) "Unusable Fuel and System Oil" and all hydraulic fluid must be included in the certificated empty weight.   
   Unusable fuel is that quantity of fuel in the system and in the tanks which is unavailable to the engine under  
   critical flight conditions as defined in CAR 4b.416.  This unusable fuel includes "system fuel" which is  
   defined as the quantity required to fill the system and tanks to the tank outlet level when the airplane is in  
   the ground level attitude.  The fuel gauges are calibrated with the unusable fuel level as the zero datum.  The  
   total amount of fuel is as follows: 
 
   Usable fuel  Unusable fuel  Undrainable fuel 
    (that is downstream Using pressure 
    of booster pumps) de-fueling unit 
   1312 U.S. gal. 24 lb. total 96 lb. total 
 
   System Oil is that amount of oil required to fill the oil systems and tanks to the tank outlets to the engines.   
   The  propeller feathering oil is not considered usable oil and is included in "System Oil".  System oil weight  
   is 86 lb.  The oil tank capacities shown in this data sheet include only the usable oil for which the tanks are  
   placarded.  Dipstick readings indicate the amount of usable oil.

NOTE 2. The following is a list of aircraft parts which are critical from the fatigue standpoi nt at less than 15,000 flights 
and must be replaced at the times specified. 
 
  (a) Flap Cables 
   Cable Part No. P.04884 B.1      750 flights 
   All other flap cables   3,500 flights 
  (b) Flap Chains 
   Parts P.04877 B.1 a nd P.04878   1,000 flights 
   All other flap chains 10,000 flights 
 
Other aircraft parts that are critical from a fatigue standpoint at 15,000 or more flights will be included herein  
as further testing and operational experience is evaluated. 
 
NOTE 3. All aircraft must be maintained and repaired  in accordance with the Air Registration Board approved 
Maintenance and Structural Repair Manuals. 
 
NOTE 4. A FAA Certificate of Airworthiness is not to be issued until compliance is found to SFAR 88.
