INTRODUCTION
‘This handbook must he read eaxefully by the owner and operator in order to become familiar with the operation
of the Rockwall Tarto Commander 6903. This handbodk includes the matorial required to be fursiaied to the
pilol bp CAR Part 3 and constitutes the Approved Airplane Flight Manuai.. Tt also contains supplemeatal cola
Supplied by the aieframe manufacturer. The FAA Approved data is identified by the notation "Data on this page
ISF.A.A. Approved" at tho bottom af each page, as apolicable.
CONTENTS OF HANDBOOK
‘The Pilot's Operating Handbook is designed to contain information necessary for safe and efficient operation of
the Rockwell Turbo Commander 6908. "The handbook is divided into nine sections as follows:

NOTE
Since a large mumber of Rockwell Turbo Commander 6908's are
equipped with different varictios of optional equipment, the illus~
trations shown in this handbaok will not be typical of every aizplane.
REVISING THE HANDBOOK
‘The "List of Bifective Pages" contains « list of ail pages in the Pllot's Operating Handbook and their issue date.
When a page of the handbook is revised or changed, the "List of Bflective Pages” will reflect the revision ma
hor and date of that revision, Upou recoipt of revised pages from Rockwell Intervational, the revised paves
must be incerted in the handhgok and ihe oheleted pages removed and destroyed.
