scoPE.
The inlormation in lhe manual provides you with a general knowledge of lhe air-
plane, its characteristics, and specific normal and emergency operaling procs-
dures. Your llying experience is recognized; lherelore, basic flight principles are
avoided. This manual provide-s lhe best possible operating instruclion under mosl
circumslances, but ars a poor subslitule lor
sound judgemenl. Multiple emergencies,
adverse w€ather, lerrain, or extenuating
circumslances may require modilication of the
procedure(s) presenled in this manual.

FLIGHT MANUAL BINDERS.

Looseleal binders and sectionalized tabs are available lor


use with your manual. They are obtained through local
purchase procedures and are listed in the Federal Supply
Schedule (FSC Group 75, Ollice Supplies, Part 1). Check
with your supply personnellor assistance in procuring these
items. Due to the size of section I it is suggesied thal divid-
ers be used al the beginning ol each system description.

PERMISSIBLE OPERATIONS.

The Flight Manual takes a "positive approach" and nor-


mally stales only what you can do. Usually operalions or
conliguralions which excesd the limitations as specif ied in
lhis manual are prohibited, except in actual emergencies,

unless authorized by HQ USAF ACADEMY/CWO.

HOW TO BE ASSURED OF HAVING LATEST DATA. . '


(.,r[
t-J re:
.
Yr,
You must remain constantly aware of the latest manual, checklists and stalus
ol supplements. T.O. 0-1-1-3 (supplemenled monthly) and lhe lalest llight
manual or supplement stalus page provide a listing ol lhe current llight
manuals, checklists and supplements.

ARRANGEMENT.

This manual is divided into seven interdependent sections to


simplily reading it straight through or using it as a relersnce
manual. For convenience, section I has been divided into 20
subsections, describing maior syslems or groups ol relaled
systems. You must be lamiliar with the systsm operating in-
struclions in section l, the limitations in section V and the llight
characlerislics in section Vl, to perform the procedures sec-
lions ll, lll, and lV. ln adverse weather conditions, the proce-
dures in seclions ll and lll shall be modilied as shown in sec-
tion Vlll.

CHECKLISTS.

The Flighl Manualcontains lhe amplilied checklists. Abbreviated checklists have


been issued as s€parate technical orders. see the latest supplemenl slalus page
lor current applicable checklists. Line items in lhe Flight Manual and checklists
are arranged in lhe same order. lf aulhorized by an interim Salety or operational
Supplement that aflects a checklist, write in the applicable change on the af-
lected checklist page. ll a printed supplement contains a replacemenl checklisl
page, lile the page in f;ont ol the exisling checklist page, but do not lhrow out
the old page (in case lhe supplement is cancelled).

HOW TO GET PEBSONAL COPIES.

Each llight crew member is entitled lo personalcopies of th€ Flight


Manual, Salety Supplemenls, Operational Supplements, and
Checklists. The required quantilies should be ordered belore you
need lhem to assure their prompt receipl. Check with your Flight
Manuals personnel - it is their job to tulf ill your Technical Order requests.
Basically, you must order the required quantities on the publica-
lion Requirements Table (T.O. 0-1-1-3). TechnicalOrders O0-5-1
and 00-5-2 give detailed inlormation lor properly ordering these
publications. Make sure asystem is established at your base to deliver
these publicalions lo the llight crews immediately upon receipt.

SAFETY AND OPEBATIONAL SUPPLEMENTS.

Safety supplements are a rapid means ol lransmitting inlormation


about hazardous condilions or saf ety problems. These supplements
conlain operating inslructions, or restrictions that affect safely or
salely modilications. Operational supplements are a rapid m€ans
of lransmitting inlormation not involving salety. Supplements are
issued by leletype (interim) or as printed {formal) supplements. lnterim
supplements are eilher replaced by a lormal printed supplement (wilh
a new number) or by a quick change to lhe manual. Formal
supplemenls are identilied by red letters "SS"or by black letters',OS"
around the borders of the pages.

All supplements ars numbered in sequence. A salety supplement


has the letters 'SS 'in lhe number. An operalional supplement has
the letter "S'in the number. All currenl supplements must be com-
plied with. A safety and operational supplemenl status page is in
each printed supplemenl and each change to lhis manual (pages
i and ii) to show the current slatus of suppiements and checklists.
These pages are only currenl when prepared. To be sure ol lhe latest
information checkthe index, T.O. o-'l -1 -3. The title page of lhis manual
and the title blockof each supplement show the eff ect of each change
on supplements. File supplements in lront of the manual, with the
lalest on top, regardless ol whether il is an operational supplement
or safety supplemenl.

Fuel and air arrive at the cylinders lor combus-

also meters luel based on the position ol the
mixture conlrol knob.

INTRODUCTION
The performance data shown on lhe lollowing pages are compiled lrom actual tests by Cessna with the
aircrall and engine in good condition and using average piloting technique and best power mixture. This
data is a valuable aid lor llight planning.
A power setting selected from the range chart usually will be more eflicient than a random selting, since
it will permit you to estimate your luel consumption more accurately. Using the chart will pay dividends
in overall elf iciency.
Cruise and range perlormance is based on llight tests using a McOauley 18235/DFC7850 propeller.
Other conditions ol the lests are shown in the chart headings. Allowance for luel reserve, headwinds,
takeolfs and climb, should be made and are in addition to lhose shown on lhe charls. Other variables
such as luel metering characteristics, engine and propeller conditions, and turbulence may account lor
variations of 10 percent or more in maximum range.

WEIGHT AND BALANCE


The tollowing in{ormation will enable you to operate the airplane within the prescribed weight and center
of gravity limitations. To ligure the weight and balance for your particular airplane, use lhe pertinent
Sample Program, and the Loading Graph and Center ol Gravity Moment Envelope as follows:
Take lhe licensed Empty Weight and Momenv1000 lrom the Weight and Balance Data sheet, plus any
. changes noted on lorms FAA-337, carried in your airplane, and write lhem down in the proper columns.
Using lhe Loading Graph, determine the moment/1000 ol each item to be carried. Total lhe weights and
' moments /1000 and use lhe Center of Gravity Moment Envelope to determine whether the point lalls
wilhin the envelope, and if the loading is acceptable.
