3.3 NORMAL FLIGHT OPERATIONS:
A. NOTE: FLAP SETTINGS:
The following Flap Settings are available:
Flap Configuration Flap Handle Position Flap Position
Cruise Handle Full Down -7°
Flaps Up First Notch 0°
Takeoff Second Notch 24°
Landing Third Notch 40°
Landing Fourth Notch 48°
B. RECOMMENDED FLAP SETTINGS:
Flap settings are given in number of notches above the fully retracted position, which
is handle full down (Normal -7°).
NOTE: The airplane meets CAR 3 takeoff climb requirements at 78K (90 mph) IAS with the
flaps selected in any of the following three positions: (a) Fully Retracted, Handle full
down (-7°), (b) First Notch (0°), and (c) Second Notch (24°).
Normal Takeoff - Second Notch (24°)
Normal Climb - First Notch (0°)
Best Angle of Climb - Second Notch (24°)
Cruise - Fully retracted (-7°/no notches or 0°/1st notch)
Landing - Normally Fourth Notch (48°/full flaps) - other positions optional

C. CLIMBING:
Best Rate of Climb – 78K (90 mph) IAS, flaps @ First Notch (0°)
Best Angle of Climb – 65K (75 mph) IAS with flaps set @ Second Notch (24°)
////////////////////////
////CAUTION////
////////////////////////
FOR TAKEOFF OR LANDING UNDER GUSTY CROSSWIND CONDI-
TIONS, FLAP SETTING OF 0°(one notch) IS RECOMMENDED. -7°OP-
TIONAL.
////////////////////////
////CAUTION////
////////////////////////
USE CLIMB AIRSPEED BELOW 78K (90 MPH) ONLY AS NECESSARY
AND CHECK CYLINDER HEAD TEMPERATURE FREQUENTLY WHEN
DOING SO.
D. RUDDER TRIM:
NOTE: To assure full effectiveness of the Right Rudder Trim:
Unlock "T" handle (½ turn left), depress right rudder as you pull "T" handle full out.
Lock "T" handle ½ turn right before releasing right rudder pressure. If too much trim,
move handle in until trim is correct and then lock.
E. STALLS:
Stalls are preceded by mild buffet that can be felt through the rudder pedals. The red
stall warning light on the instrument panel will illuminate at 4 to 9K (5 to 10 mph) above
the stall speed. Loss of altitude prior to recovery from a stall may be as much as 300
feet.
////////////////////////
////CAUTION////
////////////////////////
THE STALL WARNING LIGHT IS INOPERATIVE WHEN THE BATTERY
SWITCH IS OFF
F. CROSSWIND LANDINGS & TAKEOFFS:
Maximum demonstrated crosswind component is 12K (14 mph) and flap extension
should be limited to 0°(one notch) with such crosswind or higher. 12K (14 mph) is the
maximum demonstrated for certification of the airplane and is not considered limiting
with flaps at 0°.

G. FUEL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT:
Fuel is fed to the engine from the main (inboard) tanks and is controlled by the
selector valve on the left kick panel. Auxiliary (outboard) tanks feed their respec-
tive main tanks via transfer pumps that are controlled by switches on the instru-
ment panel. These transfer pumps transfer fuel at a rate of 0.4 gallons per
minute or approximately 45 minutes for a full auxiliary tank. Since overfilling a
main tank from an auxiliary tank will force excess fuel overboard, it is recom-
mended that the transfer pumps not be activated until their respective main tanks
are slightly more than one quarter full. If the tank being transferred to is feeding
the engine, however, transfer can be initiated when the main tank is down to ap-
proximately one half. Confirm fuel transfer by illumination of the transfer pump
switch, an increase in the respective main tank fuel gauge indicator, and a de-
crease on the respective auxiliary tank indicator.
3.4 DOOR-OFF OPERATION:
This aircraft may be operated with either one (not both) of the front doors removed, or when
both front doors are installed, with the rear passenger door or rear passenger and baggage
doors off. When doing so, observe the following additional limitations:
1. Maximum airspeed – 109K (125 mph)
2. Maximum bank angle - 30°
3. Maximum yaw angle - 10°
4. No Smoking permitted
5. Limit flight to VFR conditions
3.5 NOISE LEVEL:
The noise levels obtained during certification per FAR 36, were:
with J/W engine with B engine
with Hartzell -6R (78") 2 blade 67.6 dBA 73.9
with Hartzell -3R (81") 2 blade 71.3 dBA 73.9
with McCauley -4 (78") 3 blade 68.0 dBA -
with McCauley -2 (80") 3 blade 73.6 dBA -
with McCauley -9 (81") 2 blade 73.3 dBA 77.8
No determination has been made by the Federal Aviation Administration that the noise level
of this airplane is or should be acceptable for operation at, into, or out of any airport.
3.6 ANTI-COLLISION LIGHT:
//////////////////////////
////WARNING////
/////////////////////////
ANTI-COLLISION LIGHT MAY CAUSE ADVERSE EFFECT ON PILOT
WHEN FLYING IN VISIBLE MOISTURE OVERCAST OR HAZE. IT IS
RECOMMENDED THAT IT BE TURNED OFF SHOULD PILOT DIS-
COMFORT BE NOTICED.
