OPERATING CHECK LIST
One of the first steps in obtaining the utmost performance, service,
and flying enjoyment from your Cessna is to familiarize yourself with your
airplane's equipment, systems, and controls. This can best be done by
reviewing this equipment while sitting in the airplane. Those items whose
function and operation are not obvious are covered in Section II.
Section I lists, in Pilot's Check List form, the steps necessary to
operate your airplane efficiently and safely. It is not a check list in its
true form as it is considerably longer, but it does cover briefly all of the
points that you should know for a typical flight. An abbreviated check list
covering the "Before Take-Off" and "Before Landing" phases of aircraft
operation is provided on a plastic card and normally stowed in the map
compartment. This abbreviated check list is a convenient reference of key
items to be rechecked immediately prior to taxiing into position for take-
off and before entering the final approach for landing.
The flight and operational characteristics of your airplane are normal
in all respects. There are no unconventional characteristics or oper-
ations that need to be mastered. All controls respond in the normal way
within the entire range of operation. All airspeeds mentioned in Sections
I, II and III are indicated airspeeds. Corresponding calibrated airspeeds
may be obtained from the Airspeed Correction Table in Section VI.
