DA 62 AFM
4A.4 FLIGHT CHARACTERISTICS
The DA 62 is to be flown with "the feet on the pedals“, meaning that coordinated flight
in all phases and configurations shall be supported by dedicated use of the rudder and
ailerons together.
With the landing gear extended and at aft CG-locations, with flaps up and full power
applied, the airplane will easily recover from sideslip if the trim is set to neutral (normal
procedure), otherwise it may require corrective action with a moderate amount of rudder
input.
4A.5 DAILY CHECK
Before the first flight of a day it must be ensured that the following checks are performed.
* On-condition check of the LH and RH pilot door, the passenger door and the baggage
compartment doors for cracks and major scratches.
* On-condition check of the hinges for the LH and RH pilot door, the passenger door
and the baggage compartment doors.
* Visual inspection of the locking bolts for proper movement with no backlash.
* Tire inflation pressure check (main wheels: 3.8 bar/55 PSI, nose wheel: 3.2 bar/
46 PSI).
* Visual inspection of both spinners and their attachment.
