4A.6.18 FLIGHT IN RAIN
NOTE
Performance deteriorates in rain; this applies particularly to
the take-off distance and to the maximum horizontal speed.
The effect on the flight characteristics is minimal. Flight
through very heavy rain should be avoided because of the
associated visibility problems.
4A.6.19 REFUELING
CAUTION
Before refueling, the airplane must be connected to electrical
ground. Grounding points: exhausts, left and right. Refer to
Section 2.14 - FUEL for approved fuel grades.
NOTE
If the airplane is operated with Diesel Fuel (only approved
if MÄM 42-037 is incorporated), additional temperature
limitations (refer to Section 2.16.1 - FUEL TEMPERATURE)
must be observed.
If Jet Fuel is used, make sure that no Diesel Fuel is remaining
in the tanks, neither in the left nor in the right tank (see fuel
grade, Section 7.9.5 - FUEL SYSTEM). Otherwise the
temperature limitations for Diesel Fuel operation must be
observed.
