be
moored securely.

b. Set the parking brake. (Use wheel chocks if available.)
NOTE
Care should
be
taken to avoid setting brakes that are overheated
or during cold
eather when accumulated moisture may freeze a
brake.

under varying weather conditions. The following procedure should be used for proper
mooring of the airplane.
a.

Lock the aileron and stabilator controls by looping the seat belt through the
control wheel and pulling it snug.
c. Block the wheels.
d. Secure tie down ropes to the wing tie down rings and tail skid at approximately
45-degree angles to the ground.
CAUTION
Use bowline knots or locked slip knot. Do not use a plain slip
knot.

Additional preparations for high winds include using tie down
ropes from the landing gear forks, and securing the rudder.
