SOCATA MS 894 A history and development
MS 894 A is a certificated member of the MS890 / Rallye 235 Series family. This model is listed under EASA TCDS EASA.A.379 - MS890 / Rallye 235 series. The family contains model-specific differences in propulsion, maximum weight, fuel system, landing gear, cabin or mission equipment. preserves the model and certification identity while model-specific values that have not been verified remain unverified values.
SOCATA MS 894 A fuel capacity
exact model-specific fuel capacity / usable fuel has not yet been verified from the applicable certification record, approved flight manual, or manufacturer data. Do not infer it from a neighboring SOCATA model or suffix.
SOCATA MS 894 A model applicability and configuration
Verify exact model designation, serial number, installed engine or engines, fuel system, landing gear and approved equipment against the applicable certification record and individual aircraft documentation.
SOCATA MS 894 A weight and balance
Use exact model/serial-number loading data and the individual aircraft's approved weight-and-balance record. No baggage or payload limit is inferred from a related SOCATA model. The exact model-specific maximum takeoff weight / gross weight remains unverified until the applicable approval section is verified. Operational loading must use the aircraft-specific empty weight, CG, station arms and limitations. Use the approved aircraft-specific documentation and current weight-and-balance record for operational calculations. WBcalc does not currently provide a model-specific MS 894 A calculator.
