Question 1

AIRPLANE ONLY

What procedure should be followed if loss of elevator control occurs? (POH)

Answer 1

a. Extend the landing gear.
b. Lower flaps by 10°.
c. Set trim for level flight.
d. Using throttle and elevator trim control, establish an airspeed of 70 knots.
Do not change the established trim setting. Maintain control of the glide angle by adjusting power. At the landing flare, the elevator trim should be adjusted to full noseup and the power reduced. At the moment of touchdown, close the throttle.
