PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION SECTION 4 PA-28R-201, ARROW NORMAL PROCEDURES 4.5h Takeoff Checklist (4.23) (continued) SOFT FIELD TECHNIQUE (4.23b) Flaps ................25Þ (second notch) Accelerate to 50 to 60 KIAS depending on aircraft weight. Control Wheel ...........hack pressure to ROTATE to CLIMB ATTITUDE After breaking ground, accelerate to 55 to 65 KIAS depending on aircraft weight.
PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION SECTION 4 PA-28R-201, ARROW NORMAL PROCEDURES 4.13 ENGINE START (4.5c) (continued) 4.13b Normal Start - Hot Engine (4.5c) Open the throttle approximately l/2 inch. Turn ON the alternator and battery master switches, and the electric fuel pump. The mixture control lever should be in idle cut-off.
SECTION 4 PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION NORMAL PROCEDURES PA-28R-201, ARROW 4.13 ENGINE START (4.5c) (continued) 4.13d Engine Start With External Power Source (4.5c) (continued) NOTE For all normal operations using the PEP jumper cables, the battery master and alternator switches should be OFF.
PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION SECTION 4 PA-28R-201, ARROW NORMAL PROCEDURES 4.17 TAXIING (4.5e) (continued) Release the parking brake and apply power slowly to start the taxi roll. Taxi a few feet forward and apply the brakes to determine their effectiveness. Taxi with the propeller set in low pitch, high rpm setting. While taxiing, make slight turns to ascertain the effectiveness of the steering.
TAKEOFF (4.5h) 4.23a Normal Technique (4.5h) The normal takeoff technique is conventional for the Arrow. Flaps should be up and the trim should be set slightly aft of neutral, with the exact setting determined by the loading of the airplane. Allow the airplane to accelerate to 65 to 75 KIAS, depending on the weight of the aircraft, and ease back on the control wheel to rotate to climb attitude.
PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION SECTION 4 PA-28R-201, ARROW NORMAL PROCEDURES 4.29 APPROACH AND LANDING (4.5k) Check to ensure the fuel selector is on the proper (fullest) tank and that the seat backs are erect. The seat belts and shoulder harness should be fastened and the inertia reel checked.
Mild airframe buffeting and gentle pitching may also precede the stall. The gross weight stalling speed of the Arrow with power off and full flaps is 55 KIAS. With the flaps up this speed is increased 5 KTS. Loss of altitude during stalls can be as great as 400 feet, depending on configuration and power.
PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION SECTION 4 PA-28R-201, ARROW NORMAL PROCEDURES 4.37 TURBULENT AIR OPERATION In keeping with good operating practice used in all aircraft, it is recommended that when turbulent air is encountered or expected, the airspeed be reduced to maneuvering speed to reduce the structural loads caused by gusts and to allow for inadvertent speed build-ups which may occur as a result of the turbulence or of distractions caused by the conditions.
SECTION 4 PIPER AIRCRAFT CORPORATION NORMAL PROCEDURES PA-28R-201, ARROW 4.41 WEIGHT AND BALANCE It is the responsibility of the owner and pilot to determine that the airplane remains within the allowable weight vs. center of gravity envelope while in flight.
