INTRODUCTION

The Witchbroom Aerial Vehicle (WAV) (Figure 1) is a devilishly superior and sophisticated instrument of aerial witchcraft. The WAV permits trained witches to fly over hostile territories that harbor superstitious peoples who are known to hunt and burn witches. The WAV enables missions of all types under a variety of environmental conditions for both wicked and good purposes. Distances are shortened and travel made easier.


Figure 1. Witchbroom Aerial Vehicle (WAV)

Two models of the WAV are covered by this manual:

  1. The Operational, single seat, referred to as model.
  2. The Trainer/Ferry, two seat, tandem model, referred to as model.

The WAV is designed for VTOL (Vertical Take-Off Landing). Its high rate of climb enables climbout from forest clearing while avoiding obstacles such as trees and power lines. Thrust is provided by a Magic Spell engine. Witchcraft fuel emanates from the personal magic wand that is standard issue equipment for all certified witches.

The two-seat model is a training vehicle, which can be converted to a long-range attack vehicle or to be used for ferry. The Operational model is for use by senior witches only. This model can be used to thwart enemy craftiness, as well as for short time transportation between whichever bases that dot the Ghouland countryside.

 

SECTION 1 - ARRANGEMENT

The airframe (Figure 2) is composed of two major assemblies (fuselage and empennage). The fuselage, the front section of the WAV, is round in cross section. Its hardwood construction enables witch “knock-on-wood” capability for the prevention of system failures. A steel constructed radome is mounted on the front of the fuselage.

 

Figure 2. Witchbroom Aerial Vehicle - General Arrangement

The instrument panel position can be adjusted on the mast for weight and balance (W&B), depending on number of witches riding on it and their weight. Two seats are mounted on the fuselage mast on models, and only one seat on models models.
SEJ-13 Magic Spell Engine

The WAV is propelled by SEJ-13 Magic Spell Engine (Figure 3), developed specifically for witchcraft mobility. The SEJ-13 includes a tri-axis magic dust thrust buster starter generator.

SECTION 2 - NORMAL PROCEDURES

      NOTE

In coping with an emergency, keep legs crossed and maintain control of the WAV, analyze the emergency and take appropriate action. A good curse followed by knocking three times on mast can only help.

WAV Start

Starting procedure begins approximately two minutes prior to take-off. This allows the magic spell engine time to cast its charms and develop the necessary magic dust thrust. Figure 4 depicts the Proper positioning for Pre-Start Checks.
                                          

Witchcrew shall verify that witchcraft fuel supplying magic wands are fully recharged before each flight

Do not mount WAV from RH side. Special jinx protects against unauthorized mounting.




Figure 4. Pre-Start Checks Proper Positioning

  1. Stand left of WAV and while grasping grips in both hands, raise RH leg above WAV and sit on seat, holding WAV airborne between RH and LH legs (please, not too high).

  2. Ensure throttle is closed (IDLE position) and chant CHATTANOOGA spell three times(Chattanooga, Chattanooga, Choo-Choo-Choo x 3).

  3. After magic-spell engine starts, check flight instruments for normal indications. Check lighting system. Verify that magic charge indicator reads maximum off scale.

                                               

                                   Do not check lightning, smoke and spooky mist
                                   systems on ground, to avoid causing burns to
                                   goblin ground crew and damage to surrounding area.

SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES


This section contains the procedures to be followed to correct a ghastly, ghoulish or bone shaking condition that could reasonably be encountered. Multiple enchantments, nice weather or other unusual conditions may require modification of these procedures.

Emergency bewitchery procedures are divided into critical and noncritical counterchants. The critical counterchants are those which must be memorized and performed immediately, without reference to the written chantlists, to prevent aggravating the apparition and/or avoiding further damage or injury.
