EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
,-
INADVERTENT OPENING OF AIRPLANE DOORS IN
FLIGHT
,-
If any of the airplane doors should inadvertently open in flight, the
airplane should be slowed to 125 KlAS or less to reduce buffeting of the
doors. If the upper cargo door
is open, slow to 100 KlAS or less and
lower flaps to full down so that wing
downwash will move the door
towards its normally closed position. On the Passenger Version, closing
the upper cargo door or upper half of the passenger
airstair door can be
,~
accomplished after airspeed has been reduced by pulling the door
,
~
forcefully closed and latching the door. If the door cannot be closed in
flight, a landing should be made as soon as practical in accordance
,
.
with the checklist procedures. On Cargo Versions, an open cargo door
cannot be closed in flight since the inside of the upper door has no
handle.
If any cargo pod doors inadvertently open in flight, the airplane should
be slowed to 125 KlAS or less and landed as soon as practical. During
the landing, avoid a nose-high flare to prevent dragging an open rear
cargo pod door on the runway.
EMERGENCY EXITS

doors for emergency ground egress from the Passenger Version is
illustrated in Figure
3-2. Emergency ground egress from the Cargo
Version is accomplished by exiting the airplane through the left and
right crew
ently doors as shown in Figure 3-2.
