Cessna Grand Caravan C208B Checklist V 1.1
Cessna Grand Caravan EX · Checklist
Overview
This document is a checklist for the Cessna Grand Caravan C208B, providing pilots with essential procedures and operational guidelines for various phases of flight. It includes detailed speed references, preflight checks, engine start procedures, and emergency protocols. The checklist is designed to enhance safety and efficiency during flight operations, ensuring that pilots can quickly reference critical information. It covers normal operations, abnormal situations, and emergency procedures, making it a comprehensive resource for pilots operating the C208B.
- VMO is 175 KIAS; VX is 72 KIAS; VY is 104 KIAS at sea level.
- Rotate at 70-75 KIAS for normal takeoff; climb at 85-95 KIAS.
- Engine start requires Ng to exceed 12% and ITT to remain below 1090°C for 2 seconds.
- Before starting the engine, ensure the parking brake is set and doors are secured.
- Emergency landing without power requires an airspeed of 100 KIAS (flaps up) or 80 KIAS (full flap).

Speeds (KIAS)
The checklist outlines various critical airspeeds for the Cessna Grand Caravan C208B, including VMO (175 KIAS), VX (72 KIAS at sea level to 20,000 feet), and VY (104 KIAS at sea level to 10,000 feet). It also specifies takeoff speeds based on weight, with rotation speeds ranging from 61 to 70 KIAS depending on the aircraft's weight.
Before Starting Engine
This section details the preflight inspection and necessary checks before engine start. Pilots must ensure that the parking brake is set, doors are latched, and fuel tank selectors are on. The checklist emphasizes the importance of securing seats, belts, and harnesses.
Engine Start (Battery)
The engine start procedure includes checking the battery switch, ensuring the fuel boost is on, and monitoring engine oil pressure. Specific parameters such as Ng (12% minimum) and ITT (maximum 1090°C for 2 seconds) are highlighted for safe engine operation.
Normal Takeoff
For a normal takeoff, the checklist instructs pilots to set flaps to 20°, check annunciators, and rotate at 70-75 KIAS. Climb should be maintained at 85-95 KIAS, with flaps retracted after reaching the appropriate airspeed.
Emergency Procedures
The checklist includes detailed emergency procedures for various scenarios, such as engine failure, electrical failure, and ditching. Each procedure outlines critical actions to take, including airspeed management and securing the cabin.
Safety notes
- Always refer to the Pilot's Flight Manual (PFM) for authoritative procedures.
- Monitor ITT and Ng during engine start to avoid exceeding limits.
- Ensure all doors are latched before takeoff to prevent in-flight issues.
