Limits that matter on a pre-buy
Maximum gross weight is 2850 kg (6283 lb). Ground operations are allowed up to 2900 kg (6393 lb), but towing and take-off are prohibited at that weight. Slope limits are 12 deg nose-up, 10 deg side-up and 2 deg nose-down. Check the weight and balance whenever the passenger cabin doors are open or removed.
Speed limits worth knowing
With one or both passenger doors open or removed, VNE is 85 KIAS, and 70 KIAS while the doors are being opened or closed. Minimum autorotation speed without close external references is 60 KIAS. With torque between 100 and 108.5%, maximum speed is 75 KIAS. Maximum forward speed at touchdown after engine failure is 50 kts.
Inlet barrier filter and records
The Donaldson filter has a cockpit IBF switch with FILTER and BYPASS lights. The bypass door admits unfiltered air if the filter clogs. Servicing is on-condition: a Filter Maintenance Aid reading in the red area, a failed power assurance check, or the FILTER light. The manual also lists special inspections after a hard landing or lightning strike. Ask for the logbooks.
