MANUAL

RPM to permit uniform engine cooling.
Execute short-field landings with partial power and
full
flaps on final approach. Reduce power to idle during
flare-
out, and touch down first on the main wheels before allow-
ing the nose wheel to make contact. You may apply brakes
as soon as all wheels are firmly on the ground. For max-
imum braking effect, raise the flaps and apply back pres-
sure on the control wheel as you apply brakes. Do not skid
the main wheels, as doing so willreduce braking effective-
ness and damage the tires.
