Before Takeoff

During cold weather operations, the engine should be properly warmed up
before takeoff. In most cases this is accomplished when the oil temperature
has reached at least 100 °F (38 °C). In warm or hot weather, precautions
should be taken to avoid overheating during prolonged ground engine
operation. Additionally, long periods of idling may cause fouled spark
plugs.
Do not takeoff with frost, ice, snow, or other contamination on the fu-
selage, wing, stabilizers, and control surfaces.
