Landing Third Notch 40°
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°)

D. RUDDER TRIM:
NOTE: To assure full effectiveness of the Right Rudder Trim:
Unlock "T" handle (1/2 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.

F. CROSSWIND LANDINGS & TAKEOFFS:
Maximum demonstrated crosswind component is 12K (14 mph) and flap extension
should be limited to 0°(fully retracted) with such crosswind.
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 respective main tanks via transfer
pumps that are controlled by switches on the instrument 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 rec-
ommended 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, how-
ever, transfer can be initiated when the main tank is down to approximately one quarter. Con-
firm fuel transfer by illumination of the transfer pump switch, an increase in the respective main
tank fuel gauge indicator, and a decrease on the respective auxiliary tank indicator.
