Q

Flaps

A

Manual flap system with settings of 0°, 10°, 25°, and 40°
Slotted flaps serve to re-energize the air
ATP operations require 25° for all landings except:
-short and soft field: 40°
-precision approach: 10°

- ATP uses for all in-flight maneuvers, except for steep turns

34
Q

Nose wheel turning

A

Linked to the rudder by a steering mechanism which turns the nose wheel up to 20° each side of center

35
Q

Normally Aspirated

A

Exhaust not reused; no turbo or supercharging

36
Q

Dual Garmin GNS 430 GPSs

A

Sensenich two-bladed, fixed pitch, metal propeller. Diameter is 76 in. Maximum RPM (red line): 2700 RPM

38
Q

Carburetor Icing Cause

A

High air velocity through the carburetor venturi and the absorption of heat from this air by vaporization of the fuel

39
Q

Carburetor Icing Conditions

A

Temperatures of 20°F-70°F (-5° to 20° C) under certain atmospheric conditions

40
