3 INTRODUCTION Section 2 includes operating limitations, instrument markings, and placards necessary for the safe operation of the airplane, its engine, standard systems, and standard equipment. The limitations included in this section and in Section 9 (Supplements) have been approved by the FAA. Observance of these limitations is required by the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR). Refer to Section 9 of this manual for amended operating limitations, operating procedures, performance data, or other information necessary for airplanes equipped with specific options. The Liberty XL-2 airplane is certificated in the Normal Category under FAA Type Certificate No. A00008DE. P/N 135A FAA Approval: March 30, 2010 Section 2 Initial Release Page 3 of 18
