(See NOTE 5) Model M26 01: 1APP01-01, 1AP002-01 and subsequent 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 Civil Aviation Office (CAO) of Poland 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. airworthiness regulations 14 CFR Federal Aviation Regulations Part 23, U.S. Type Certificate No. A44CE 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. Certification Basis FAR 23 effective February 1, 1965, as amended through FAR 21.17 Amendment 23-36 effective September 14, 1988; FAR 36 effective December 1, 1969, as amended through Amendment 36-21 effective December 28, 1995. The Civil Aviation Office (CAO) of Poland originally type certificated this aircraft under its type certificate Number BB-175/2. The FAA validated this product under U.S. Type Certificate Number A44CE. Effective October 24, 2005, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) began oversight of this product on behalf of Poland. The EASA TCDS number is EASA.A.057. Validation Basis Type Certificate A44CE was issued pursuant to FAR 21.29 in validation of the General Inspectorate of Civil Aviation Certification of compliance with the aforementioned certification basis, and in accordance with the standard airworthiness certificate provisions of FAR 21.183(c). A44CE Page 4 of 5 Equipment The required equipment as prescribed in the applicable airworthiness regulations (see certification basis) must be installed in the aircraft for airworthiness certification.

(See Note 5) • Service bulletins, • Structural repair manuals, • Vendor manuals, • Aircraft flight manuals, and • Overhaul and maintenance manuals. The FAA accepts such documents and considers them FAA-approved for type design data only 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. NOTES: NOTE 1 A current weight and balance report including list of equipment included in the certificated empty weight, and loading instructions when necessary, must be provided for each aircraft at the time of original airworthiness certification, and at all time thereafter. The certificated empty weight and corresponding center of gravity location must include full oil and unusable fuel as noted below: Fuel 1.06 U.S. Gal Oil 4.75 U.S. Gal NOTE 2 Placards (Refer to Manufacturer's Specifications for a complete listing): All required placards as listed in the approved Airplane Flight Manual must be installed in the appropriate locations.
