SECTION IV
CHEROKEE 180
NOTE
Partial carburetor
heat
may
be worse than no heat at
all,
since
it may
partially
melt
ice,
which will refreeze
in the intake system. When
using
carburetor
heat,
therefore, always use
full
heat,
and when ice is
removed return the
control to the full cold position.
SPINS
Intentional
spins
are prohibited
in both the normal
and the
utility
category airplane. For approved maneuvers
as
a
utility
category
airplane, refer
to
the
Flight
Manual.
Use
the
following

recover from inadvertent spins.

OPEN
DOOR
The
cabin door
on the Cherokee
is
double
latched,
so the chances
of
it springing open
in
flight
at
both the
top
and bottom
are
remote.
However,
should
you forget the upper
latch,
or not
fully
engage the
lower
latch,
the
door may
spring
pa'rtially
open. This will
usually
happen
at
take-off
or soon afterward. An open door
will
not affect
normal flight
characteristics, and a
normal
landing
can be
made with
the door open.
If both upper and lower latches
open,
the door will trail
slightly
open,
and airspeed
will be reduced slightly.
To close
the
door in
flight, proceed
as follows:
1.
Slow aircraft
to 100
MPH
IAS.
2.
