STANDARDIZATION MANUAL and AMPLIFIED PROCEDURES CESSNA 152

Ref: POH 7-23 The Cessna 152 is powered by a one-battery, one-alternator electrical system. The 24-volt battery is located on the firewall, on the instructor's side of the aircraft. The 28-volt alternator is located on the front of the engine, and is belt-driven by the crankshaft just aft of the spinner. This alternator is voltage-protected, and should automatically trip off in the event of excessive voltage. The electrical system is protected by circuit breakers, eliminating the need for spare fuses to be carried on board at night in accordance with FAR 91.205(c)(6).

These should always be on any time the aircraft is electrically powered. Lake Elmo Aero checklists dictate that this switch should be left in the On position. Multiple aircraft in the Lake Elmo Aero fleet are equipped with a uAvionix SkyBeacon, which is a 1090MHZ ADS-B transmitter attached to one of the navigation lights. For this reason, navigation lights must remain powered on whenever the aircraft is in operation; failure could result in noncompliance with FAR 91.225(b) regarding ADS-B in required airspace. Beacon Light The Beacon Light is a red flashing light located on top of the vertical stabilizer. It should be turned on prior to engine start, and remain on until the engine is shut down. It is a commonly accepted practice in aviation that a flashing beacon indicates an aircraft with intent to start an engine, if it has not already. When operating or walking around a ramp or parking area, use appropriate vigilance and judgement. Landing Light The Landing Light is a forward-facing white light, angled to provide optimal visibility during a takeoff or an approach to landing. It should be turned on before to takeoff and landing, but can be turned off in flight at the pilot's discretion. In the absence of a taxi light being installed, the landing light can be turned on before taxi. Use caution when taxiing parallel to an active runway, and consider turning the landing light off if it could cause a hazard to arriving aircraft. NOTE: When operating in Lake Elmo Aero practice areas, leaving all external lights on during flight is recommended. 7 Lake Elmo Aero, LLC - July 2021 Audio Control Panel Not installed on all aircraft The aircraft's intercom and ATC audio are controlled through a Garmin GMA340 audio panel. Understanding this panel's functionality is crucial to situational awareness and safety. The double knobs on each side of the audio panel, titled PILOT and COPILOT, control the intercom volume and squelch. The inner (smaller) knob controls the intercom volume for the respective occupant; turn clockwise to increase intercom volume. Pulling the COPILOT volume knob out (away from the panel) will allow control of the rear seat intercom volume. The outer (larger) knob control controls the intercom squelch (microphone sensitivity) for the respective occupant. Turn this knob clockwise to increase the threshold of volume required to speak over the intercom; turn it counterclockwise to make the microphone more sensitive. If one pilot cannot be heard over the intercom, twist the respective squelch knob all the way counterclockwise to completely open the squelch (known as a "hot mic"). The receive select buttons, labeled COM1, COM2, and COM3, control which Com radios are able to be heard through the headsets. Multiple radios can be selected to receive simultaneously. The transmit select buttons, labeled COM1 MIC, COM2 MIC AND COM3 MIC, control which Com radio is being used to transmit. Only one of these can be selected to transmit at any given time. The Com Split button on the lower right, labeled COM 1/2, will allow the left seat pilot to transmit and receive on Com 1 only and the right seat pilot to transmit and receive on Com 2 only. Neither pilot will be able to hear the opposite radio until this button is deselected. This can be useful, for example, when an instructor wants to call flight service and provide a PIREP but not interrupt a student's communications on the main radio. The Speaker button on the lower right, labeled SPKR, sends all received audio from Com and Nav radios through the airplane's speaker. Not commonly used. The Intercom Isolation buttons on the lower right, labeled PILOT and CREW, allow ATC and intercom audio to be isolated to certain seats of the aircraft. In this mode, passengers are on their own intercom channel and can communicate with each other, but cannot hear ATC radios or communicate with the selected occupants (PILOT = left seat pilot, CREW = both front seats). Useful when flying with passengers in busy airspace and/or critical phases.

Complete the Descent Checklist. 2. At least 10nm from the airport, attempt to determine the runway in use*. 3. At least 2nm from the runway, enter the traffic pattern at the published Traffic Pattern Altitude on a 45- degree entry to the downwind leg, maintaining a ½-mile distance from the runway once established. a. If approaching from the opposite side of the airport, overfly the airport at least 500' above Traffic Pattern Altitude. 4. Complete the Before Landing Checklist. The above procedure assumes an ideal traffic pattern situation. Other traffic, ATC, local traffic pattern restrictions, obstacles, etc may require a modification of these procedures. In all cases, the pilot shall exercise good judgement and maintain positive airplane control. * If the runway in use cannot be determined, overfly the airport at least 500' above Traffic Pattern Altitude to observe traffic and/or wind direction indicators to determine a runway for use. Standards Maintain proper spacing from other aircraft. Maintain orientation with landing runway. Maintain traffic pattern altitude +/- 100' (Private) or 50' (Commercial) and +/- 10 KIAS. 9 Lake Elmo Aero, LLC - July 2021 Traffic Pattern Departure Ref: AFH Ch. 7, AC 90-66B Objective: To safely depart an airport after takeoff or integrate into the flow of traffic when remaining in the traffic pattern. If departing the traffic pattern... 1. Climb straight out on runway heading until above traffic pattern altitude, or... 2. Exit with a 45-degree turn to the left (assuming left-hand traffic) beyond the departure end of the runway, OR exit on the downwind leg once above traffic pattern altitude. 3. Pitch to an appropriate speed that balances climb performance with engine cooling. 4. Complete the Climb Checklist. If remaining in the traffic pattern... 1. Begin a turn to the crosswind leg when beyond the departure end of the runway and within 300 feet of Traffic Pattern Altitude. The above procedure assumes an ideal traffic pattern situation. Other traffic, ATC, local traffic pattern restrictions, obstacles, etc may require a modification of these procedures. In all cases, the pilot shall exercise good judgement and maintain positive airplane control. Standards Maintain proper spacing from other aircraft. Maintain orientation with runway. Maintain traffic pattern altitude +/- 100' (Private) or 50' (Commercial) and +/- 10 KIAS. 10 10 Traffic Pattern Quick Reference Pattern Departure Upwind Downwind Base Final 70-80 KIAS 67 KIAS [VY] 80 KIAS 70 KIAS 60 KIAS Lake Elmo Aero, LLC - July 2021 BASE 70 KIAS FLAPS 20 FINAL 60 KIAS FLAPS 30 DOWNWIND 80 KIAS FLAPS 10 45 ENTRY RUNWAY 11 CROSSWIND DEPARTURE 70-80 KIAS UPWIND 67 KIAS FULL POWER Lake Elmo Aero, LLC - July 2021 Clearing Turns Ref: AIM Sec. 4 Objective: To observe any local threats or hazards, including obstacles or other traffic, prior to commencing any training maneuver. 1. Visually scan the area to the left and right of the aircraft. 2. Select a visual landmark off the wingtip in the direction of the turn to be executed as a 90-degree reference point. 3. Enter a 30-degree bank in the direction of the visual landmark. 4. Continuously scan the area above, below, and ahead of the flight path. Use the aircraft's wing position to your advantage; in a Cessna, the best visibility will be on the side from which you are turning away. 5. After completing a 90-degree turn, roll wings level on the selected landmark. 6. Select another visual landmark off the opposite wingtip in the direction of the next 90-degree turn. 7. Enter a 30-degree bank in the direction of the visual landmark. 8. Continuously scan the area above, below, and ahead of the flight path. 9. After completing the second 90-degree turn, roll wings level on the selected landmark. The aircraft should now be on its original heading. Note: Clearing turns do not absolve a pilot of his/her responsibility to see and avoid traffic while performing training maneuvers. 12 12 Lake Elmo Aero, LLC - July 2021 Configuring the Aircraft for Maneuvers Prior to commencing any maneuvers, the following configuration settings should be considered. Recommendations are offered below for individual maneuvers. BOOST/FUEL PUMP No auxiliary fuel pumps are installed on the Cessna 152; this step can be disregarded for this aircraft. CARBURETOR HEAT Carburetor heat should be used any time the engine will experience continuous RPM settings below 2000 RPM. GAS/FUEL TANKS The Fuel Shutoff Valve should always be in the "on" position. UNDERCARRIAGE/LANDING GEAR Brakes should never be set in flight. Brake pressure can be checked before ground reference or landing maneuvers by briefly pressing on both toe pedals and feeling for feedback/pressure. If operating an aircraft equipped with retractable landing gear, the down-and-locked position should be ensured if required by the maneuver. The Cessna 152 is not equipped as such. MIXTURE Mixture should always be set to full rich for maneuvers. POWER/PROPELLER Engine power and/or propeller RPM should be set as needed for the maneuver to be performed. SEAT BELTS All occupants' seat belts should be fastened at all times, and any baggage that may shift during maneuvers should be secured with seat belts if possible. SWITCHES All aircraft lights should be on for maneuvers. Additionally, pitot heat should be used if entering instrument conditions or in any form of visible moisture. The preceding configuration can be accomplished by following the acronym: BCGUMPSS Boost Pump Carburetor Heat Gas Undercarriage Mixture Power Seat belts Switches الله 13 Lake Elmo Aero, LLC - July 2021 TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS Normal Takeoff and Climb Ref: POH 4-7 and 4-14, AFH 5-3 Objective: To safely execute a takeoff under normal conditions. 1.
