MODEL 2088 (675 SHP) EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
FORCED LANDINGS
(Continued)
LANDING WITHOUT ELEVATOR CONTROL
Using power lever and elevator trim control, trim for approximately 500
fpm descent with 20" flaps at 85 KIAS. Then control the glide angle by
adjusting power. If required, make small trim changes to maintain
approximately 85
KIAS as power is adjusted during the approach.
The landing flare can be accomplished by a gentle power reduction
accompanied by nose-up trim. At forward C.G. loadings, it may be
necessary to make a small power increase in the final flare stage to
bring the nose up and prevent touchdown on
tne nose first. After
touchdown, move the power lever to idle.
SMOKE AND FIRE
In the event a fire is encountered, the following information will be
helpful in dealing with the emergency as quickly and safely as possible.
The preflight checklist in Section
4
is provided to aid the pilot in
detectina conditions which could contribute to an
air~lane fire. As a fire
requiresa combustible material, oxygen and a source of ignition, close
preflight inspection should be
given-t6 the engine compartment and the
underside of the winq and fuselage. Leaks in the fuel or
o:l systems can
lead to a ground or in-flight fire.
