Weight and balance report including list of equipment included ir. certificated weight empty, and loading instructions when necessary, must be submitted for each aircraft with original inspector's report and each subsequent report covering changes in equipment. (a) The following placard must be conspicuously posted at the right outboard wing fuel tank filler cap: "FILL WITH 87 OCTANE FUEL ONLY." The following placard must be placed at the fuel selector valve: "USE RIGHT WING OUTBOARD TANK FUEL FOR TAKE-OFF AND LANDING." when 87 (or 80) octane fuel is used in all tanks, the above placards may be deleted and the operation limits placard should bear the notation 87 OCTANE FUEL ONLY USED IN ALL TANKS." NOTE 3. Maximum weight may be increased to 10,500 1bs. provided Item 101 (constant speed prop, control or propeller Item 118) is installed. NOTE 4.
