6/6/2017 suBTITLE: Cessna 180J & 180K Series Floatplanes REVISIOU: I 1 SECTION 3. EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Emergency procedures in the FAA approved airplane placards and/or Flight Manual generally apply.except for airspeeds which may be different. Emergency landings on water should be done with water rudders up, aircraft slightly tail low on touchdown, and control wheel held full aft as the floatplane decelerates on the water. Emergency landings on land should be done with water rudders up, aircraft in a level attitude on touchdown and the control wheel full aft after contact. If damage occurs to the floats causing compartments to flood, aggressively shift the weight (people and baggage) in the opposite direction of damage in order to balance the aircraft over the buoyant compartments.

NORMAL PROCEDURES NOTE: These items supplement the CESSNA normal procedures. Be sure and follow the CESSNA procedures except as noted below. BEFORE ENTERING THE FLOATPLANE 1. Inspect the floats and attachment for dents, cracks, punctures, etc. 2. Remove rubber plugs'(which serve as stoppers on the standpipe in each float compartment) and pump out any accumulation of water. Reinstall rubber stoppers with enough pressure for a snug fit. (If there is an excess of water, investigate the leakage.) WARNING It is up to the pilot to determine whether the floats have taken on water, which could adversely affect CG. Pump both floats before every flight. 3. When checking engine oil level, use the side of the dipstick having two "X" marks. The lower mark indicates nine quarts and the upper mark indicates twelve quarts. BEFORE STARTING ENGINE 1. Water Rudders Operation - "CHECK VISUALLY" 2. Water Rudders - "DOWN FOR TAXIING" 3. Water Rudders - "CHECK FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT AND SECURITY" BEFORE TAKEOFF WARNING It is up to the pilot to determine whether the floats have taken on water, which could adversely affect CG. Pump both floats before every flight. .c1ERCCET Page ISSUE DATE: 8 of 13 1/22/2001 INCORPORATED FILE UO.

WEIGHT AND BALANCE The airplane equipped with Aerocet 3500 or 3500L Floats must be loaded in accordance with the limitations in Section 2. These are shown as an aircraft weight/moment envelope or an aircraft weight versus CG location chart on page 14. NOTE: It is the responsibility of the airplane owner and pilot to insure that the airplane is loaded properly.

AIRPLANE AND SYSTEM DESCRIPTIONS: In addition to the Aerocet 3500 Float installation the aircraft must incorporate the Cessna approved seaplane kit. As a result of these installations, the floatplane is identical to the landplane with the following exceptions: AEROCET MODIFICATIONS Floats, incorporating a water rudder steering system, replace the landing gear. A water rudder retraction lever, connected to the water rudders by cables, is located on the cabin floor tunnel. CESSNA MODIFICATIONS 1. An additional structural "V" brace is installed between the top of the front door posts and the cowl deck. 2. Additional fuselage structure is added to support the float installation. 3. A centering spring assembly and cables are added to the rudder control system to improve stability in flight. NOTE: If the floatplane is returned to the landplane configuration, these items need not be removed. 4. The floatplane has additional corrosion proofing and stainless steel cables. 5. Hoisting provisions are added to the top of the fuselage. 6. The left-hand cabin door is equipped with removable hinge pins for ease of door removal when loading large cargo. 7. Fueling steps and assist handles are mounted on the forward fuselage, and steps are mounted on the wing struts to aid in refueling the floatplane. Inboard fuel filters are added when long range fuel tanks are installed. NOTE: A reduction of approximately five gallons of usable fuel in each tank will result if inboard fillers are used to fill the long range fuel tank. 8. Floatplane placards are added. NOTE: Refer to the appropriate CESSNA Pilots Operating Handbook for other seaplane changes which apply to individual 180 models.
