PARKING
10-10 PARKING
General
Under normal weather conditions, the airplane may be parked and headed in a direction that
will facilitate servicing without regard to prevailing winds. Ensure that it is sufficiently
protected against adverse weather conditions and presents no danger to other aircraft.
Procedure
1. Position airplane on levelled surface, headed into the prevailing wind, if practical.
2. Engage parking brake.
In case of long time parking or overnight parking, it is recommended to moor the
a/c as shown on Para. 10-20.
CAUTION
Do not engage the parking brakes at low ambient temperature, when an
accumulation of moisture may cause the brakes to freeze, or when they
become hot from severe use. In this case use wheel chocks.
Mooring is strongly recommended when the wind is more than 22 knots and the
a/c is completely refueled.
