MAX LANDING GEAR EXTENSION - VLOE
MAX LANDING GEAR RETRACTION - VLOR
MAX LANDING GEAR EXTENDED - VLE
VLOE - 220 KIAS
VLOR - 200 KIAS
VLE - 250 KIAS
MANUFACTURER MAX ALT
MANUFACTURER - 41,000’
MAX TO&L ALT
10,000’
What are the maximum pressure differential and associated warning?
Positive - 8.7 PSI
Negative - (-.5) PSI
During taxi, TO&L - .1 PSI
WARNING - Aircraft must be completely depressurized prior to opening any door. Failure to comply with this limitation could result in an accident, injury, or death.
Stall protection notes
- Stall protection system test must be accomplished before first flight of the day.
- Both stall protection switches must be ON for all phases of flight.
- Engine operation at or near shaker and pusher settings is predicated on an operable auto ignition system.
Use of flight spoilers
Policy - Flight spoilers must not be extended in flight below 1,000’ AGL (Manufacturer - 300’ AGL).
To ensure adequate maneuver margins, flight spoilers must not be extended in flight at airspeed below the recommended approach (Vref + 5 + 17) or maneuver (Vref + 10 + 17) speeds.
Bleed air - TO&L
10th stage bleed air must be closed for TO&L if the engine cowl &/or wing A/ICE systems are ON.

Allied Signal RE-220 (RJ)
Air conditioning in flight - not permitted above FL150
Engine start in flight - SE - N/A
Double engine start - permitted below 13,000’
Max altitude for start - FL300
What are minimum altitudes for autopilot use?
Operation with the A/P engaged is prohibited at altitudes below 600’ AGL, except as follows:
- For visual and non-precision approaches - 400’ AGL
- For precision approaches (ILS) - 80’ AGL
- IAW 14CFR121.579 - AWAC policy is to disconnect A/P at 50’ below the approved MDA or DH or listed limits, whichever is higher.
- The ADC source coupled to the active autopilot must the same as that coupled to the ATC transponder during flight in RVSM airspace.
Required RVSM equipment
- Autopilot (1) - must be operational
- Altitude alert system - must be operational
- Altitude reporting transponder (2) - one must be operational
- Air data computer (ADC) (2) - both must be operational
Minimum T.O. ambient temperature
-40 degrees C
Maximum T.O. (-1000’ to S.L.) temperature
50 degrees C
Operational fuel limitations
Center fuel - T.O. with a fuel load in excess of 500# in the center tank is not permitted unless each wing tank is above 4,400#
Min fuel for go-around - 450#/wing - as indicated with a/c level and assuming a max climb attitude of 10 degrees pitch up.
Max imbalance - 800#
