WING FIRE
1. Landing/Taxi Light Switches – OFF
2. Navigation Light Switch – OFF
3. Strobe Light Switch – OFF
4. Pitot Heat Switch – OFF
NOTE
Perform a sideslip to keep the flames away from the fuel tank and cabin. Land as soon as possible using
flaps only as required for final approach and touchdown
ICING
1. Turn Pitot Heat switch – ON
2. Turn Prop Heat switch – ON
3. Turn back or change altitude to obtain an outside air temperature that is less conducive to icing
4. Pull cabin heat control full out and rotate defroster control clockwise to obtain maximum defroster
airflow
5. Increase engine speed to minimize ice buildup on propeller blades
6. Watch for signs of induction air filter icing. An unexplained loss of manifold pressure could be
caused by ice blocking the air intake filter. Adjust the mixture, as required, for any change in power
settings
7. Plan a landing at the nearest airport. With an extremely rapid ice buildup, select a suitable “off
airport” landing site.
8. With an ice accumulation of ¼” or more on the wing leading edges, be prepared for significantly
higher stall speeds
9. Leave wing flaps retracted. With sever ice buildup on the horizontal tail, the change in wing wake
airflow direction caused by wing flap extension could result in a loss of elevator effectiveness.
10. Open left window and if practical scrape ice from a portion of the windshield for visibility in the
landing approach
11. Perform a landing approach using a forward slip, if necessary, for improved visibility
12. Approach at 80-90 KIAS depending upon the amount of the accumulation
13. Perform a landing in level attitude
STATIC SOURCE BLOCKAGE
(Erroneous Instrument Reading Suspected)
1. Static Pressure Alternate Source Valve – PULL ON
2. Airspeed – Consult appropriate tables in Section 5 of the Pilot Operating Handbook
3. Altitude – Consult appropriate tables in Section 5 of the Pilot Operating Handbook
LANDING WITH A FLAT MAIN TIRE
1. Approach – NORMAL
2. Wing Flaps – FULL DOWN
3. Touchdown – GOOD MAIN WHEEL FIRST, hold airplane off flat tire as long as possible with aileron
control
4. Directional Control – MAINTAIN using brake on good wheel as required
LANDING WITH A FLAT NOSE TIRE
1. Approach – NORMAL
2. Flaps – AS REQUIRED
3. Touchdown – ON MAINS, hold nose wheel off the ground as long as possible
4. When nose wheel touches down, maintain full up elevator as airplane slows to a stop
