BALKED LANDING
In a balked landing (go-around) climb, the wing flap setting should be
reduced to 20" after takeoff power is applied. After all obstacles are
cleared and a safe altitude and airspeed are obtained, the wing flaps
should be retracted.
AFTER SHUTDOWN
If dusty conditions exist or if the last flight of the day has been
completed, install engine inlet covers to protect the engine from debris.
The covers may be installed after the engine has cooled down (ITT
indicator showing "off scale" temperature). Secure the propeller to
prevent windmilling since no oil pressure is available for engine
lubrication when the engine is not running.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
Special consideration should be given to the operation of the airplane
fuel system during the winter season or prior to any flight in cold
temperatures. Proper preflight draining of the fuel system is especially
important and will eliminate any free water accumulation. The use of an
additive is required for Anti-ice protection. Refer to Section 8 for
information on the proper use of additives.

to fllaht O~eratlna the elevator and alleron trim tabs tnrouqh lhelr full
travd in both direhions will assure smooth operation by reaucing any
stiffness in these systems caused by the cold weather effects on
I
system lubrication. Even small accumulations of frost, ice, snow or
slush must be removed, particularly from wing, tail and all control
surfaces to assure satisfactory flight performance and handling. Also,
control surfaces must be free of any internal accumulations of ice or
snow.
The use of an external pre-heater reduces wear and abuse to the
engine and the
electr,cal system. Pre-heat will lower the viscosity of tne
oil-trapped in the oil
choler,
prior to starting in extremeiy cold
temperatures.
