The complete EMS Kit No. 155M-100 has an approved Flight Manual
Supplemental covering weight and balance considerations, basic
operations and system descriptions. Each component of the kit can
be explored using the free Metro Aviation iPad App, which was
developed as a familiarization and training tool for customers. The
App currently features 360-degree interior and exterior views,
completion and installation videos, system descriptions, user
manuals and product support for the EC135, EC145 and EC130. The
company says the EC155 will be added to the Metro Aviation iPad App
