STATIC SOURCE BLOCKED
If erroneous readings of the static source instruments (airspeed,
altimeter and vertical speed) are suspected, the alternate static source
air valve (ALT STATIC AIR) should be pulled ON, thereby supplying
static pressure to these instruments from the cabin.
When the ALT STATIC AIR valve is ON, the maximum airspeed
variation from normal static source operation is 5 knots and the
maximum altimeter variation is 50 feet with all windows closed. Refer to
Section 5, Figure 5-1 (Sheet 2), Airspeed Calibration, and Figure 5-2,
Altimeter Correction tables, for Alternate Static Source for additional
details.
SPINS
Intentional spins are prohibited in this airplane, but should an
inadvertent spin occur, the following recovery procedure should be
used:
1. RETARD THROTTLE TO IDLE POSITION.
2. PLACE AILERONS IN NEUTRAL POSITION.
3. APPLY AND HOLD FULL RUDDER OPPOSITE TO THE
DIRECTION OF ROTATION.
4. JUST AFTER THE RUDDER REACHES THE STOP, MOVE THE
CONTROL WHEEL BRISKLY FORWARD FAR ENOUGH TO
BREAK THE STALL. Full down elevator may be required at aft
center of gravity loadings to assure optimum recoveries.
5. HOLD THESE CONTROL INPUTS UNTIL ROTATION STOPS.
Premature relaxation of the control inputs may extend the
recovery.
6. AS ROTATION STOPS, NEUTRALIZE RUDDER, AND MAKE A
SMOOTH RECOVERY FROM THE RESULTING DIVE.
If the rate of the spin makes determining the direction of
rotation difficult, the magenta turn rate indicator at the top of
the HSI compass card will show the rate and direction of
the turn. The HSI compass card will rotate in the opposite
direction. Hold opposite rudder to the turn vector direction.
