Section I

OPERATING CHECK LIST
One of the first steps in obtaining the utmost performance, service,
and flying enjoyment from your Cessna is to familiarize yourself with your
airplane's eqUipment, systems, and controls. This can best be done by
reviewing
this equipment while sitting in the airplane. Those items whose
function and operation
are not obvious are covered in Section II.
Section I
lists, in Pilot's Check List form, the steps necessary to
operate your airplane efficiently and safely. It is not a check list in its
true form as it is considerably longer, but it does cover briefly all of the
points that you should know for a typical flight. All information in this
section is based on twin engine operation. For single engine operation
and procedures, reference should be made to Section III.
The flight and operational
characteristics of your airplane are normal
in all respects. There are no critical single-engine characteristics or
operations that need to be mastered and maintained at a high level of pro-
ficiency. All controls respond in the normal way within the entire range
of operation. All airspeeds mentioned in Sections I, II and III are indicated
airspeeds unless otherwise noted. Corresponding calibrated airspeeds
may be obtained from the Airspeed Correction Table in Section VI.
