CHEROKEE "E" SECTION III
8. The shape of the wing fuel tanks is such that in certain
maneuvers the fuel may move away from the tank outlet. If the outlet
is uncovered, the fuel flow may be interrupted and a temporary loss of
power may result. Pilots can prevent inadvertent uncovering of the
outlet by avoiding maneuvers which could result in uncovering the
outlet.
Running turning takeoffs should be avoided as fuel flow
interruption may occur if tank in use is not full.
Prolonged slips or skids in any pitch attitude or other unusual
maneuvers which could cause uncovering of the fuel outlet must be
avoided when tank being used is not full.
9. The rudder pedals are suspended from a torque tube which
extends across the fuselage. The pilot should become familiar with the
proper positioning of his feet on the rudder pedals so as to avoid
interference with the torque tube when moving the rudder pedals or
operating the toe brakes.
10. Anti-collision lights should not be operating when flying
through overcast and clouds since reflected light can produce spacial
disorientation. Do not operate strobe lights when taxiing in the vicinity
of other aircraft.
