General Flashcards
Normal Cruise Power Settings
24” and 2300RPM
What is the leaning procedure?
Lean mixture slowly until peak TIT or the TIT redline (1685) Then richen/cool 50 degrees rich of peak.
Procedure for stage cooling the turbocharger prior to descent?
4 min prior to descent, reduce power 1” per minute until reaching 20” MP. After initiating descent continue to reduce MP 1” per 1000’ to maintain 20”
Richen mixture 1/2 turn per 1000’
Cowl flaps should be closed for descent.
When should Cowl Flaps be used
OPEN for Taxi, Takeoff, Climb (Control Set UP)
CLOSED for Cruise and Descent
What does Cessna recommend in very cold weather?
Increase Cruise Altitude or Cruise Power to increase engine temps in to the green arc.
Power Off Stall Speed at 3100LBS. Flaps Up? Full Flaps?
Flaps Up: 51 KIAS
Full Flaps: 41 KIAS
How would you close a door during flight?
Slow down and trim for 80 KIAS.
Momentarily shove door outward, then forcefully close and lock the door.
How does the vacuum system differ on the 182T
There are two engine-driven vacuum pumps. The Vacuum system powers the Attitude Indicator but not the HSI.
How does the alternate air of the engine induction system work.
No pilot input is required. If intake filter becomes blocked, the engine suction causes a spring-loaded alternate air door to open.
What powers the turbocharger
Hot Exhaust Gas
How is the turbocharger controlled.
By the wastegate. When open, exhaust gasses bypass around, rather than through, the turbocharger turbine.
When will the wastegate be fully closed?
At high altitude and at part throttle or low RPM. Once closed the wastegate will no longer control the turbocharger speed.
What Fuel Flow (mixture) adjustments are required?
Small adjustments for takeoff/climb.
Lean for cruise.
Full rich for approach and landing.
If MP exceeds 32”, what should be done?
Throttle should be retarded to eliminate overboost.
What should you do if fuel flow fluctuates during a high altitude climb?
Turn on the Aux Fuel Pump Switch.
This will control vapour. Mixture will need to be adjusted for desired fuel flow.
3 Purposes of the Aux Fuel Pump?
Priming
Vapour Suppression
Back-up for engine-driven fuel pump
Nominal Voltage of the electrical system?
28 Volts DC
Alternator Capacity?
95 Amp
What system warnings appear on the annunciator panel?
Fuel Level
Low Oil Pressure
Vacuum Transducers
Alternator Control Unit
With a full tank of O2 what is max flight duration for a pilot and 3 passengers? What is the pressure of a full tank?
1:45
1800PSI
When is supplemental O2 required?
Above 13,000 MSL
For all crew and passengers for flights >30 min between 10,000-13,000’
What is the engine and horsepower
Lycoming TI540. 235HP at 2400RPM
Oil sump capacity? Required Oil per CFC?
8 Quarts. 5-6 Quarts.
Basic Empty Weight?
Max Takeoff Weight?
Max Ramp Weight?
Max Landing Weight?
2034lbs
3100lbs
3112lbs
2950lbs
