GROUND HANDLING
PARKING
When parking the airplane, head into the wind and set the parking
brakes. Do not set the parking brakes during cold weather when
accumulated moisture may freeze the brakes, or when the brakes are
overheated. Install the control wheel lock, engage the rudder lock, and
chock the wheels (if the brakes are not utilized) to prevent airplane
movement. In severe weather and high wind conditions, tie the airplane
down as outlined in the tiedown section.
Any time the airplane is loaded heavily, the footprint
pressure (pressure of the airplane wheels upon the
contact surface of the parking area or runway) will be
extremely high, and surfaces such as hot asphalt or
sod may not adequately support the weight of the
airplane. Precautions should be taken to avoid airplane
parking or movement on such surfaces.
