OPERATING
CHECKLIST
One of
the
first
steps
in obtaining
the
utmost
performance,
service,
and
flying
enjoyment
from
your
Cessna
is
to
familiarize
yourself
with
your
aircraft's
equipment,
systems,
and
controls.
This
can
best
be done
by
reviewing
this
equipment
while
sitting
in
the
aircraft.
Those
items
whose
function
and operation
are
not obvious
are
covered
in Section
II.
Section
I lists,
in Pilot's
Checklist
form,
the
steps
necessary
to
operate
your aircraft
efficiently
and
safely.
It is not
a
checklist
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.
A
more
convenient
plastic
enclosed
checklist,
stowed
in
the
map compartment,
is
available
for
quickly
checking
that
all
important
procedures
have
been
performed.
Since vigilance
for other
traffic
is so important
in crowded
terminal
areas,
it is important
that
preoccupation
with checklists
be avoided
in
flight.
Procedures
should
be
carefully
memorized
and performed
from
memory.
Then
the
checklist
should
be quickly
scanned
to
ensure
that
nothing
has been missed.
The flight
and
operational
characteristics
of your aircraft
are normal
in
a11 respects.
There
are no "unconventional"
characteristics
or opera-
tions that
need
to
be
mastered.
AII 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
airspeed
may be obtained
from
the
Airspeed
Correction
Table
in Section
VI.
