Preflight Checklist
The preflight checklist includes essential steps such as checking fuel quantity, inspecting control surfaces, and ensuring weight and CG are within limits. It also covers the verification of documents and the removal of gust locks and pitot covers.
Engine Start Procedures
Before starting the engine, pilots must ensure the mixture is rich, throttle is set to open ¼ to ½ inch, and the carburetor heat is off. The checklist outlines a series of steps to safely start the engine, including checking oil pressure and setting the alternator on.
Takeoff Procedures
The checklist details procedures for normal, short field, and soft field takeoffs, including flap settings and climb speeds. It specifies that the elevator control should lift the nose at 50 KIAS for normal takeoff.
Landing Procedures
Landing procedures are outlined for normal, short field, and soft field landings, with specific airspeeds and flap settings. The checklist emphasizes maintaining control and ensuring a proper touchdown.
Emergency Procedures
Emergency procedures include steps for engine failure after takeoff, landing without engine power, and dealing with electrical fires. Each emergency scenario has specific airspeeds and actions to take to ensure safety.
Safety notes
- Procedures in red/bold text should be committed to memory.
- Refer to the Aircraft Owner’s Manual for detailed performance speeds and procedures.
- Do not crank the engine for more than 10 seconds; allow 20 seconds to cool if necessary.
