Parking; Mooring - Cub Crafters CC11-100 Maintenance Manual

1 PARKING

(a) Position the airplane on level surface, headed into wind.
(b) Set the parking brakes. The parking brake valves are located on the forward
portion of the passenger rudder pedals. To engage, press both brake pedals and
turn the brake valve to the horizontal position.
(c) A good practice is to position the propeller in an angled or horizontal position
when parked.
(d) Chock the main gear wheels.
(e) In gusty or stormy weather, moor the airplane.
(f) When the aircraft is to be parked for an extended time, it should be moved
frequently to prevent corrosion in the wheel bearings and getting flat spots on the
tires.

2 MOORING

(b) Set the parking brakes. The parking brake valves are located on the forward
portion of the passenger rudder pedals. To engage, press both brake pedals and

(d) Chock the main gear wheels.
(e) Tie mooring lines. (Figure 6.3.24.1) There are two tie-down rings underneath
each wing next to the forward lift strut. The tail should be tied down by wrapping
chain/rope (at least once) around the tail wheel head. In severe weather, use
multiple lines. During gusty or high wind conditions, mooring lines may require
periodic tightening to prevent excessive movement of airplane. Use a secure
knot such as a bowline knot to ensure security.
