Main tanks (2 X 37 gal) are inboard, aux tanks (2 X 31 gal) are outboard. ** NOTE: ENGINES: IO-470-L; 260 BHP @ 2625 RPM Fuel Injected. Throttle/Propeller controls are non-conventional. ** NOTE: PROPELLERS: Have accumulator for unfeathering. ** NOTE: ELECTRICAL: 28 Volt DC, Two 50-amp alternators. Battery monitor light comes on when charge is > 7 amps. ** NOTE: LDG GEAR: Warning horn sounds at 11" MP with gear up. Nose gear 50 psi Main gear 50 psi. ** NOTE: STALL WRNG: Warning horn sounds 5-8 kts prior to stall. AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS NOTES ------------------------- ** NOTE: Engine may not start until starter is released. ** NOTE: To set parking brake, pull handle, pump brakes, release handle. ** NOTE: Cowl flaps should be OPEN on ground and takeoff. ** NOTE: When using external power, turn battery/alternators OFF. ** NOTE: Landing lights may overheat if used for taxi. ** NOTE: Use boost pumps ONLY for priming or fluctuating fuel flow. ** NOTE: Max of 20° of flaps for T/O. ** NOTE: RPM on T/O roll: 2625 RPM. ** NOTE: Allow circuit breakers to cool 3 minutes before resetting. ** NOTE: When practicing engine failures (DUAL ONLY MANEUVER), the mixture control should always be pulled back to ICO before feathering a prop to prevent the engine from being flooded. ** NOTE: Zero thrust setting is 10"/FP. ** NOTE: Do not insert fuel nozzle more than 3" into fuel tank to prevent possible damage to the bottom of the tank.
