Turn the BATT switch OFF and the ammeter should decrease. Turn the
BATT switch ON and continue to monitor the ammeter. If the alternator output
does not decrease within 5 minutes, turn the BATT switch OFF and land as soon
as possible. All electrical loads are being supplied by the alternator.
NOTE
Due to higher voltage and radio frequency noise,
operation with the ALT switch ON and the
BATT switch OFF should be made only when
required by an electrical failure.
3.25 SPIN RECOVERY
Intentional spins are prohibited in this airplane. If a spin is inadvertently
entered, immediately move the throttle to idle and the ailerons to neutral.
Full rudder should then be applied opposite to the direction of rotation
followed by control wheel full forward. When the rotation stops, neutralize
the rudder and ease back on the control wheel as required to smoothly regain
a level flight attitude.
3.27 OPEN DOOR
The cabin door on the Cherokee is double latched, so the chance of it
springing open in flight at both the top and side are remote. However, should
you forget the upper latch, or not fully engage the side latch, the door may
spring partially open. This will usually happen at takeoff or soon afterward. A
partially open door will not affect normal flight characteristics, and a normal
landing can be made with the door open.
If both upper and side latches are open, the door will trail slightly open, and
airspeed will be reduced slightly.
To close the door in flight, slow the airplane to 89 KIAS, close the cabin
vents and open the storm window. If the top latch is open, latch it. If the side
latch is open, pull on the arm rest while moving the latch handle to the
latched position. If both latches are open, close the side latch then the top
latch.
Turn the BATT switch OFF and the ammeter should decrease. Turn the
BATT switch ON and continue to monitor the ammeter. If the alternator output
does not decrease within 5 minutes, turn the BATT switch OFF and land as soon
as possible. All electrical loads are being supplied by the alternator.
