(65 kts). Please monitor CHT, oil and water temperature during long
periods of climbing. Oil temperature regulation flap must be set to
position "open" or "cooler".

To prepare for approach, switch on the electric fuel pump and set the
elevator trim as required, set carburetor heat to "warm" (pull) as
necessary. When entering final, we recommend establishing an
airspeed of 75 mph (65 kts) and extending flaps to the 40° position.

Landings shall be done with full flap setting (40°). In case of a
headwind component of more than 17 mph (15 kts) it is
recommended to carry out the landing with a flaps setting of 15° only
instead of full flap setting.
