NOTE

If “Engine Run-Up” shows magneto drop out of limit and/or uneven engine run, perform peak lean. Explain peak lean.

Answer 22

NOTE
If “Engine Run-Up” shows magneto drop out of limit and/or uneven engine run, then, with both magnetos “ON”, set RPM to 2500 RPM, lean to peak EGT, and run the engine for 30-40 seconds at peak EGT, then reduce to 1200 RPM and select mixture rich. Perform a new engine run-up check. If magneto drop is still out of limits, ground abort aircraft.

Answer 24

NOTE
After nose wheel lift-off, the nose wheel strut will automatically lock in center position, and directional control is maintained by rudder only.

Question 25

NOTE

“…” of the aircraft during take-off, will increase ground roll distance.

Answer 25

NOTE

Over-rotation of the aircraft during take-off, will increase ground roll distance.

Question 26

NOTE
