Q

SMOKE IN COCKPIT

A
  • Check heating and demisting OFF
  • Master switch OFF
  • Battery OFF
  • Generator OFF
  • Master avionics OFF
  • VENTILATE THE CABIN
  • When smoke clears, all consumers OFF
  • Master switch ON
  • Battery ON
  • Direct battery ON
  • Generator ON (Check DC parametrs, if bad, GEN OFF, LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE)
  • Master avionics ON
