SYMBOLS, ABBREVIATIONS AND TERMINOLOGY GENERAL AIRSPEED TERMINOLOGY AND SYMBOLS KCAS Knots Calibrated Airspeed is indicated airspeed corrected for position and instrument error and expressed in knots. Knots calibrated airspeed is equal to KT AS in standard atmosphere at sea level. KIAS Knots Indicated Airspeed is the speed shown on the airspeed indicator and expressed in knots. 1 October 1978 1-5 SECTION 1 GENERAL KTAS V NE ,&1,-,SO,- 'V CESSNA MODEL 182Q Knots True Airspeed is the airspeed expressed in knots relative to undisturbed air which is KCAS corrected for altitude and temperature. Manuevering Speed is the maximum speed at which you may use abrupt control travel. Maximum Flap Extended Speed is the highest speed permissible with wing flaps in a prescribed extended position. Maximum Structural Cruising Speed is the speed that should not be exceeded except in smooth air, then only with caution. Never Exceed Speed is the speed limit that may not be exceeded at any time. Stalling Speed or the minimum steady flight speed at which the airplane is controllable. Stalling Speed or the minimum steady flight speed at which the airplane is controllable in the landing configu- ration at the most forward center of gravity. Best Angle-of-Climb Speed is the speed which results in the greatest gain of altitude in a given horizontal distance. Best Rate-of-Climb Speed is the speed which results in the greatest gain in altitude in a given time. METEOROLOGICAL TERMINOLOGY OAT Standard Tempera- ture Pressure Altitude 1-6 Outside Air Temperature is the free air static temperature. It is expressed in either degrees Celsius or degrees Fah- renheit. Standard Temperature is 15°C at sea level pressure alti- tude and decreases by 2°C for each 1000 feet of altitude. Pressure Altitude is the altitude read from an altimeter when the altimeter's barometric scale has been set to 29.92 inches of mercury (1013 mb). 1 October 1978 CESSNA MODEL 182Q SECTION 1 GENERAL ENGINE POWER TERMINOLOGY BHP RPM MP Brake Horsepower is the power developed by the engine. Revolutions Per Minute is engine speed. Manifold Pressure is a pressure measured in the engine's induction system and is expressed in inches of mercury (Hg). AIRPLANE PERFORMANCE AND FLIGHT PLANNING TERMINOLOGY Demon- strated Crosswind Velocity Usable Fuel Unusable Fuel GPH NMPG g Demonstrated Crosswind Velocity is the velocity of the crosswind component for which adequate control of the airplane during takeoff and landing was actually demon- strated during certification tests. The value shown is not considered to be limiting. Usable Fuel is the fuel available for flight planning. Unusable Fuel is the quantity of fuel that can not be safely used in flight. Gallons Per Hour is the amount of fuel (in gallons) consumed per hour. Nautical Miles Per Gallon is the distance (in nautical miles) which can be expected per gallon of fuel consumed at a specific engine power setting and/ or flight configura- tion. g is acceleration due to gravity. WEIGHT AND BALANCE TERMINOLOGY Reference Datum Station Arm Moment 1 October 1978 Reference Datum is an imaginary vertical plane from which all horizontal distances are measured for balance purposes. Station is a location along the airplane fuselage given in terms of the distance from the reference datum. Arm is the horizontal distance from the reference datum to the center of gravity (C.G.) of an item. Moment is the product of the weight of an item multiplied 1-7 SECTION 1 GENERAL Center of Gravity (C.G.) C.G. Arm C.G. Limits Standard Empty Weight CESSNA MODEL 182Q by its arm. (Moment divided by the constant 1000 is used in this handbook to simplify balance calculations by reduc- ing the number of digits.) Center of Gravity is the point at which an airplane, or equipment, would balance if suspended. Its distance from the reference datum is found by dividing the total moment by the total weight of the airplane. Center of Gravity Arm is the arm obtained by adding the airplane's individual moments and dividing the sum by the total weight. Center of Gravity Limits are the extreme center of gravity locations within which the airplane must be operated at a given weight. Standard Empty Weight is the weight of a standard air- plane, including unusable fuel, full operating fluids and full engine oil. Basic Empty Basic Empty Weight is the standard empty weight plus the Weight weight of optional equipment. Useful Load Maximum Ramp Weight Maximum Takeoff Weight Maximum Landing Weight Tare 1-8 Useful Load is the difference between ramp weight and the basic empty weight. Maximum Ramp Weight is the maximum weight approved for ground maneuver. (It includes the weight of start, taxi and runup fuel.) Maximum Takeoff Weight is the maximum weight ap- proved for the start of the takeoff run. Maximum Landing Weight is the maximum weight ap- proved for the landing touchdown. Tare is the weight of chocks, blocks, stands, etc. used when weighing an airplane, and is included in the scale read- ings. Tare is deducted from the scale reading to obtain the actual (net) airplane weight. 1 October 1978 CESSNA MODEL 182Q SECTION 2 LIMITATIONS TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction . . . . . . . .

Emergencies caused by airplane or engine malfunctions are extremely rare if proper preflight inspections and maintenance are practiced. Enroute weather emergencies can be minim- ized or eliminated by careful flight planning and good judgment when unexpected weather is encountered. However, should an emergency arise, the basic guidelines described in this section should be considered and applied as necessary to correct the problem. Emergency procedures associated with ELT and other optional systems can be found in Section 9. AIRSPEEDS FOR EMERGENCY OPERATION Engine Failure After Takeoff: Wing Flaps Up . .

NOTE Perform a sideslip to keep the flames away from the fuel tank and cabin, and land as soon as possible using flaps only as required for final approach and touchdown. ICING INADVERTENT ICING ENCOUNTER 1. Turn pitot heat switch ON (if installed). 2. Turn back or change altitude to obtain an outside air temperature that is less conducive to icing. 3. Pull cabin heat control full out and rotate defroster control clock- wise to obtain maximum defroster airflow. 4. Increase engine speed to minimize ice build-up on propeller blades. 5. Watch for signs of carburetor air filter ice and apply carburetor heat as required. An unexplained loss in manifold pressure could be caused by carburetor ice or air intake filter ice. Lean the mixture if carburetor heat is used continuously. 6. Plan a landing at the nearest airport. With an extremely rapid ice build-up, select a suitable "off airport" landing site. 7. With an ice accumulation of 1/4 inch or more on the wing leading edges, be prepared for significantly higher stall speed. 8. Leave wing flaps retracted. With a severe ice build-up on the horizontal tail, the change in wing wake airflow direction caused 1 October 1978 3-7 SECTION 3 CESSNA MODEL 182Q EMERGENCY PROCEDURES by wing flap extension could result in a loss of elevator effective- ness. 9.

Those extra items on the checklist will provide added safety after a failure of this type. Prompt lowering of the nose to maintain airspeed and establish a glide attitude is the first response to an engine failure after takeoff. In most cases, the landing should be planned straight ahead with only small changes in direction to avoid obstructions. Altitude and airspeed are seldom sufficient to execute a 180 0 gliding turn necessary to return to the runway. The checklist procedures assume that adequate time exists to secure the fuel and ignition systems prior to touchdown. After an engine failure in flight, the best glide speed as shown in figure 3-1 should be established as quickly as possible. While gliding toward a suitable landing area, an effort should be made to identify the cause of the failure. If time permits, an engine restart should be attempted as shown in the checklist. If the engine cannot be restarted, a forced landing without power must be completed. 12,000 I- 10,000 u. z « 8000 a: a: w I- w > 6000 0 ID « 4000 l- -' * SPEED 70 KIAS I a * PROPELLER WINDMILLlNG- o ~.:{:..:.;..{_f_t:"""')_}_":":::_···""'&-_--'-_--L..._*_F...LL_A_P_S--JUL..-P_*.......Z_ER_O.....&-W_I_NiL.D_--, w 2000 I o 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 GROUND DISTANCE - NAUTICAL MILES Figure 3-1.

Before attempting an "off airport" landing with engine power availa- ble. one should fly over the landing area at a safe but low altitude to inspect the terrain for obstructions and surface conditions. proceeding as dis- cussed under the Precautionary Landing With Engine Power checklist. Prepare for ditching by securing or jettisoning heavy objects located in the baggage area and collect folded coats for protection of occupants' face at touchdown. Transmit Mayday message on 121.5 MHz giving location and intentions and squawk 7700 if a transponder is installed. Avoid a landing flare because of difficulty in judging height over a water surface. LANDING WITHOUT ELEVATOR CONTROL Trim for horizontal flight with an airspeed of approximately 80 KIAS by using throttle and elevator trim control. Then do not change the elevator trim control setting; control the glide angle by adjusting power exclusive- ly. At flareout. the nose-down moment resulting from power reduction is an adverse factor and the airplane may hit on the nose wheel. Consequent- ly. at flareout. the elevator trim control should be adjusted toward the full nose-up position and the power adjusted so that the airplane will rotate to the horizontal attitude for touchdown. Close the throttle at touchdown. FIRES Although engine fires are extremely rare in flight. the steps of the appropriate checklist should be followed if one is encountered. After completion of this procedure. execute a forced landing. Do not attempt to restart the engine. The initial indication of an electrical fire is usually the odor of burning insulation. The checklist for this problem should result in elimination of the fire. 3-12 1 October 1978 CESSNA MODEL 182Q SECTION 3 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES EMERGENCY OPERATION IN CLOUDS (Vacuum System Failure) In the event of a.,....yacuum system failure during Wgbt, the directional indicator and attitude indicator will be disabled. and the pilot will have to rely on the turn coordinator if he inadvertently flies into clouds. The following instructions assume that only the electrically-powered turn coordinator is operative. and that the pilot is not completely proficient in ,instrument flying. - --- EXECUTING A 1800 TURN IN CLOUDS Upon inadvertently entering the clouds. an immediate plan should be made to turn back as follows: 1. Note the compass heading. 2. Note the time of the minute hand and observe the position of the sweep second hand on the clock. 3. When the sweep second hand indicates the nearest half-minute, initiate a standard rate left turn, holding the turn coordinator symbolic airplane wing opposite the lower left index mark for 60 seconds. Then roll back to level flight by leveling the miniature airplane. 4. Check accuracy of the turn by observing the compass heading which should be the reciprocal of the original heading. 5. If necessary, adjust heading primarily with skidding motions rather than rolling motions so that the compass will read more accurately. 6. Maintain altitude and airspeed by cautious application of elevator control. Avoid overcontrolling by keeping the hands off the control wheel as much as possible and steering only with rudder. EMERGENCY DESCENT THROUGH CLOUDS If conditions preclude reestablishment of VFR flight by a 180 0 turn, a descent through a cloud deck to VFR conditions may be appropriate. If possible, obtain radio clearance for an emergency descent through clouds. To guard against a spiral dive, choose an easterly or westerly heading to minimize compass card swings due to changing bank angles. In addition, keep hands off the control wheel and steer a straight course with rudder control by monitoring the turn coordinator. Occasionally check the compass heading and make minor corrections to hold an approximate course. Before descending into the clouds, set up a stabilized let-down condition as follows: 1. Apply full rich mixture. 1 October 1978 3-13 SECTION 3 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES 2. Apply full carburetor heat. CESSNA MODEL lS2Q 3. Reduce power to set up a 500 to SOO ft/min rate of descent. 4. Adjust the elevator and rudder trim control wheels for a stabilized descent at SO KIAS. 5. Keep hands off control wheel. 6. Monitor turn coordinator and make corrections by rudder alone. 7. Adjust rudder trim to relieve unbalanced rudder force, if present. S. Check trend of compass card movement and make cautious corrections with rudder to stop turn. 9. Upon breaking out of clouds, resume normal cruising flight. RECOVERY FROM A SPIRAL DIVE If a spiral is encountered, proceed as follows: 1. Close the throttle .• 2. Stop the turn by using coordinated aileron and rudder control to align the symbolic airplane in the turn coordinator with the horizon reference line. 3. Cautiously apply elevator back pressure to slowly reduce the indicated airspeed to SO KIAS. 4. Adjust the elevator trim control to maintain an SO KIAS glide. 5. Keep hands off the control wheel, using rudder control to hold a straight heading. Use rudder trim to relieve unbalanced rudder force, if present. 6. Apply carburetor heat. 7. Clear engine occasionally, but avoid using enough power to disturb the trimmed glide. S. Upon breaking out of clouds, resume normal cruising flight. INADVERTENT FLIGHT INTO ICING CONDITIONS Flight into icing conditions is prohibited. An inadvertent encounter with these conditions can best be handled using the checklist procedures. The best procedure, of course, is to turn back or change altitude to escape icing conditions. STATIC SOURCE BLOCKED If erroneous readings of the static source instruments (airspeed, altimeter and rate-of-climb) are suspected, the alternate static source valve should be pulled on, thereby supplying static pressure to these instruments from the cabin. Cabin pressures will vary with open ventila- tors or windows and with airspeed. To avoid the possibility of large errors, the windows should not be open when using the alternate static source. 3-14 1 October 1975 CESSNA MODEL 182Q SECTION 3 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES NOTE In an emergency on airplanes not equipped with an alternate static source, cabin pressure can be supplied to the static pressure instruments by breaking the glass in the face of the rate-of-climb indicator. A calibration table is provided in Section 5 to illustrate the effect of the alternate static source on indicated airspeeds. With the windows and vents closed the airspeed indicator may typically read as much as 3 knots faster and the altimeter 45 feet higher in cruise. With the vents open, this variation reduces to zero. If the alternate static source must be used for landing, the normal indicated approach speed may be used since the indicated airspeed variations in this configuration are 2 knots or less. SPINS Intentional spins are prohibited in this airplane. Should an inadvert- ent spin occur, the following recovery procedure should be used: 1. RETARD THROTTLE TO IDLE POSITION. 2. PLACE AILERONS IN NEUTRAL POSITION. 3. APPLY AND HOLD FULL RUDDER OPPOSITE TO THE DIREC- TION OF ROTATION. 4. JUST AFTER THE RUDDER REACHES THE STOP, MOVE THE WHEEL BRISKLY FORWARD FAR ENOUGH TO BREAK THE STALL. 5. HOLD THESE CONTROL INPUTS UNTIL ROTATION STOPS Premature relaxation of the control inputs may extend the recov- ery. 6. AS ROTATION STOPS, NEUTRALIZE RUDDER, AND MAKE A SMOOTH RECOVERY FROM THE RESULTING DIVE. NOTE If disorientation precludes a visual determination of the direction of rotation, the symbolic airplane in the turn coordinator may be referred to for this information.
