UP |
 |
| In the VC this lever
needs to be dragged, rather than just a single click. |
| |
|
| Yaw Damper |
ON |
 |
This gauge is on the
co-pilot side & is only available in the VC.
There's no great need to set it on in FS. |
| |
|
| Flaps |
UP at 1500 ft |
 |
Once the flaps are up
you will need to lower the nose & get some speed
up.
Some elevator trim adjustment is usually required.
The large wing creates a fair amount of drag at
higher angles of incidence, so keep a positive acceleration
up to your climb speed. |
| |
|
| Landing Lamps |
OFF |
 |
| No great rush, as there's
no damaging speed to worry about for the lights
since they are all flush fitted into the wing. |
| |
|
| Cabin Alt |
Check Rising |
 |
Make sure pressurization
is working properly, the rate should normally rise
at 400 ft per minute until the cabin height has
reached the set required level.
The rate can be selected using the knob at the top
left of the gauge. |

|
| Climb Power |
7400 RPM |
 |
| Max continuous engine
temperature is 570 deg C, but up to 650 is allowed

| Autopilot |
POWER ON |
 |
The A/P will take about
45 seconds to power up.
Once ready the amber 'READY' light will come on
& only then can it be engaged by pressing the
blue button. |

|
| SFS |
NAV1 or NAV2 |
 |
| The Smith's Flight System
has to be set to run off NAV1 or NAV2. This provides
signal data to the compass & flight director
etc. |
| |
|
| Fuel Heaters |
ON |
 |
Temperatures get very
cold at higher altitudes, so fuel heat is needed.
If there is no fuel heat the filters can get blocked
& the red light next to the switch will light. |
| |
|
| Relight Override |
OFF |
 |
| With this off, any engine
relight should be done by using the relight buttons
on the starter panel. |
