may be recovered with over turning. Normal over tuming is:
- to one tum since counteraction have started after one spin turn,
- to 1,5 turn since counteraction have started at spins with more turns.
(21 During pushing the control stick, the force on this stick is increased from initial
value of cca 200 N to value of cca 250 N. When pushing in time, that is shorter than
1 sec., the force swell is more increased, time prolongation of elevator action over 2
sec. may lead to over tuming during spin recovering.

Code Selection
Code selection is done wrth eight keys (0 - 7) providing 4,096 active identification codes.
Pushing one of these keys begins the code selection sequence. Digits that are not )ret enrered
appear as dashes The nei.r, code rs activated when the founh digit is entered. Pressing the CLR
Key moves ihe cursor back to the previous digit. Pressing the CLR Key ivhen the cursor is on
the frrst digit of the code, or pressing the CRSR Key dunng code entryi, removes the cursor and
cancels data entryt restoring the pretious code. Press the CI-R Key up to fir'e seconds after code
entrv is complete t0 return the cursor to the founh digir. The numbers B and 9 are not used for
code entrir only for enlering a Count Down time, and contrast and display' brighrness.
lmDonant Codes:
1200- The VFR code for any altitude in the US (Refer to ICAO standards elsewhere)

7000- The VFR code commonly used in Europe (Refer to 1CAO standards)

7500- Hijack code (Aircraft is subject to unlawful rnterference)

7600- Loss of communications

7700- Emergency

7777-Mllitary interceptor operations (Never squawk this code)

0000- Military use

Avoid selecting codes 0000, 7500, and all codes inrhe7600-7777 range. These codes
tngger special indicators in automated faciiities. An aircrafts transponder code is used for ATC
tracking purposes, therefore exercise care u'hen making routine code changesl

Timer Operation
To operate the Flight Timer:
1. Press the FUIiC Key until 'FLIGHT TIME' is displayed.

2. lf the GTX 328 is configured with Automated Airborne Determination, the limer begins
automatically when the unit senses that the aircraft has become airborne. The timer
may be reset to zero at every take off, continue accumulating time at take off or may be
controlled manually.

3. lf desited, press START/STOP to pause or restart the timer.

4. Press CLR to reset the timer to zero,

5. lf the timer is configured to start automatically it will stop when the Automaled Airborne
Determination senses that the aircraft is on the ground.

To operate the Count Up timer:

1, Press the FUNC Key until 'COUNT UP' is displayed.

2. If necessary, press CLR to reset the Count Up timer to zero.

3, Press START/STOP t0 begin count up.

4. Press START/STOP again 1o pause the timer.

5. Press CLR to reset the timer to zero.

To operate the Count Down timer:
1. Press the FUN€ Key until 'COUNT DOWN' is displayed,
2. Press CRSR and use the 0 - 9 keys to set the initial time. AII digits must be entered (use
the 0 Key to enter leading zeros).
3. Press START/STOP to begin count down.
4. Press START/STOP again to pause the timer.
5. When the Count Down timer expires, the'COUNT DOWN'banner is replaced with a

flashing 'EXPIRED', and the time begins counting up.

6. Press CLR to reset the timer to the initial time value.

no transponder data is transmttted.
Mode 5 Data Transmission
ln addition to 4096 code and pressure altitude, the GTX 328 is capable of transmitting
aircraft identification, transponder capability and maximum speed range. "Aircraft
ldentification" is commonly referred to as FLT iD (Flight ldentifrcation). The GTX 328 may
be configured by the installer to allow the Ilight crew to enter FLf ID for each flighr An
example is when air-carrier service requires changing the FLI ID.
The FLT ID may consist of the aircraft registration or a flight number as agreed upon wth
the local aviation authoriqi In either case, the FLT ID must be the same aircraft identificadon
that appears in the flight plan to conelate the aircraft identification seen on ATC radar wirh the
lf no flight plan is filed u'rth the aviation authority (as
correct voice call sign for the aircraft.
may be permitted by regulations), the FLT ID entered is the aircraft registration marking.

When flight crew entry of the FLI ID is not required, the installer configures the

tstem to rcport the aircraft rdentification according to local aviation requirements. In this
configuration, alteration of Lhe FLT ID by the fiight crew is not possible.

Applicability:
without the wino reinforcement modification

o lnstallation of G-load monitoring units on some Zlin Z 42 seties aircrafl has revealed
that the real intensity of aerobatic operation of some aircraft considerably exceeded
the original expectations that had been used io determine the operational limitations.
As a result, these aircraft exceeded the calculated 'total limit load'spectra and limit
design aerobatic load spectrum.
Further investigations determined the need to prohibit operations under the Aerobatic
("A") category for Zlin Z 42 series aircraft with non-reinforced wings and the need to
Reason: replace some airframe/wing attachment parts to maintain airworthiness of these
aircraft in the long term.
For the reason described above, this Emergency Airworthiness Directive (EAD)
prohibits "A" category flights for Zlin Z 42 seties aircraft with non-reinforced wings,
restricts certain aircraft to Normal ("N") category operations, iimits to 190 Flight Hours
(FH) the time that can be flown under "A" and Utility ("U") categories and introduces
new life limits and new inspections requirements to be inserted into the operators'
maintenance programmes.
