COCKPIT GENERAL 1.1 Accommodation etc. AIRCRAFT GENERAL, COCKPIT Description The cockpit has accommodation for two pilots and one observer. The observer seat is of a folding type and can be removed when not in use. It is provided with an inertia reel shoulder harness. The cockpit windows are fixed. A ground communication hatch is on the left side of the fuselage below the side windshield. As an alternate emergency exit from the cockpit, a hatch is located in the cockpit ceiling. This hatch can also be used for ventilation on the ground. The cockpit is also provided with two adjustable sun−visors. CAUTION A sun−visor must never be folded in a position blocking the handgrips in the cockpit ceiling. This is to facilitate quick access to the grip should a seat runaway occur. 1.2 A11948 Fig. 1 Observer seat Instruments, switches etc. Instruments are partly of the electronic type (”glass cockpit”), with CRTs in front of the pilots. Other indicators, pushbuttons, switches etc, are located on the overhead panel, glareshield panel, the instrument panels and on the pedestal. 1.2.1 Instrument/Placard color codes Operating limits . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

AIRCRAFT GENERAL, COCKPIT Description COCKPIT DOOR To open the cockpit door from the cabin, the rounded knob on the cockpit door is turned and the door pulled open. The door can be latched in the fully open position by pressing it against a door catcher located on the cover panel to the avionic rack. The door can be latched closed on the cockpit side by turning the latch lever to locked position as indicated by the red marking beside the lever. In case of a rapid decompression, the door has a pressure equalization panel (blowout panel) to equalize the pressure between the passenger compartment and the cockpit. In event that cockpit door cannot be opened toward passenger cabin due to immovable obstruction on cabin side, the door may be partially opened into the cockpit as follows: a. Remove the jumpseat assembly from its frame. b. Turn the door stop (colored red) adjacent to the rounded knob on the door jamb. c. Release the pintle latch by turning on the rounded knob. d. Pull the door inwards. NOTE Easy or full opening of the door may be obstructed by the observer’s smoke mask assembly, jumpseat harness buckle holder, etc. However, slight force should overcome such obstructions. CAUTION Due to possibility of damage to door assembly, hinge, etc., opening of door inwards is considered an abnormal operation, and shall be attempted only if an immovable obstruction prevents normal opening of the door in a timely manner. Note that emergency egress from the cockpit in event cockpit door cannot be opened, or is inaccessible, shall be via the cockpit emergency escape hatch. 1/2.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 19 S1 Aircraft Operations Manual AIRCRAFT GENERAL, COCKPIT Description A A FLIGHT COMPARTMENT DOOR Door jamb Latch lever Used to latch the door in locked position.

COCKPIT DOOR 6.1 General To meet new requirements for protection of cockpit and cockpit crew from intrusion by unauthorized personnel, Saab 340 aircraft have been fitted with a reinforced cockpit door. In addition to a complete lack of means of opening the door from the cabin side, the door also provides protection from forced entry, including such attempted entry by use of battering instruments and large−caliber handguns. 6.2 Main components The door is constructed of reinforced composite board to withstand intrusion force, with ballistic material added to forward face (i.e., cockpit side). As noted above, tests have proven the door’s capability of resisting repeated battering by weighted sledge, and repeated impact from large−caliber handgun rounds. The lock pintle and barrel assembly and door hinge are reinforced to resist intrusion. The door can only be locked or unlocked from the cockpit, by means of a spring−loaded pintle and latch. A short nylon lanyard is provided to assist in closing of the door by aircrew. The pressure equalization panel (”blowout panel”) fitted in the cockpit door is constructed of non−reinforced material. However, on the cockpit side of the cockpit door, a built−up cage assembly is fitted to prevent entry − including partial entry − into the cockpit should the ”blowout” panel be compromised. The forward face (i.e., cockpit side) of this cage includes a panel made from ballistic material to resist gunfire, etc. Also, on either side of the cockpit entryway, immediately adjacent to the metal cage, two panels made from ballistic are fitted to protect aircrew from firearm discharge. The cockpit door jamb is reinforced by a heavy− gauge aluminum abutment. The abutment angle is attached to the cockpit side of the door jamb by three clevis pins, thus allowing removal of the abutment angle by aircrew in event door must be opened inward. AIRCRAFT GENERAL, COCKPIT Description A large, clear−vision, armored−glass sight window is fitted to allow observation of the passenger cabin from the cockpit. A cover is fitted to the sight window on the cockpit side of the door, to prevent viewing of cockpit from cabin side of door 6.3 Normal Operation As stated above, the cockpit door cannot be opened, or latched closed, from the passenger cabin side of the door. − To close door, either aircrew member pulls door towards closed position via the nylon lanyard. To engage the latch, lift up the small rounded knob to release the pintle latch lever, and slide the pintle latch lever inboard.

GENERAL 1.1 Air conditioning Air conditioning is furnished by two packs located under the cabin floor in the wing fairing. The temperature of the outgoing air is either automatically or manually controlled from the cockpit. The actual temperature regulation is performed by mixing hot air directly from the pneumatic system with air that has been cooled by the main unit of the pack − the air cycle machine. The conditioned air from the left pack is then distributed to the cabin and from the right unit to the cockpit and cabin. The two distribution systems are connected by a cross manifold for transfer purposes, controlled by a cross valve. The valve may only be open on the ground. Each distribution system recirculates the air to improve air flow. An external air conditioning system can be connected to the aircraft when parked. In case of over−temperature, the pneumatic system bleed valve will close and a DUCT OV TEMP light in the AIRCOND panel will come on together with AIRCOND master caution. 1.2 Pressurization The cabin is pressurized by the two air conditioning packs. The system is so designed that it is sufficient with one pack for pressurization up to 31 000 ft. However, the engine bleed extraction requirement must be observed above 25 000 ft. (See AOM 17.1.) The cabin pressure is either automatically controlled by a pressurization controller, or manually controlled by means of a control valve operated from the control panel in the cockpit. The automatic control system is the one normally used. It receives power lever position, static pressure, cabin pressure, preselected airfield altitude, weight on or off wheels and pressure values from the control panel. These parameters are processed in a control unit which then electrically regulates the electro−pneumatic primary outflow valve to maintain the correct pressure. AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description The manually controlled system is an all pneumatic system. The pilot operates the pneumatic secondary outflow valve by adjusting the control valve setting while watching the cabin pressure instruments. With Mod. No. 1994 installed and in auto mode the pressurization control system dumps cabin pressure by opening the primary electro−pneumatic outflow valve when on ground, the pneumatic secondary outflow valve will remain closed. Both outflow valves can be opened by means of an emergency dump switch in the cockpit when on ground. In the air (flight mode) the dump switch only activates the primary electro−pneumatical outflow valve. Both outflow valves incorporate positive and negative pressure relief functions. Without Mod. No. 1994 installed and in auto mode, the pressurization control system dumps cabin pressure by opening both outflow valves when on ground. The electro−pneumatical outflow valve can also be opened by means of an emergency dump switch in the cockpit. Both outflow valves incorporate positive and negative pressure relief functions. Cabin pressure is displayed on three indicators in the cockpit. The indicators show differential pressure, cabin altitude and cabin altitude rate−of− change. A CABIN PRESS master warning on the central warning panel is activated if cabin climbs above 10 000 ft or if the differential pressure exceeds 7.5. psi. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Air conditioning system (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2) Air conditioning pack Hot air from the pneumatic system is used for conditioning of the cockpit and cabin. The air conditioning temperature is regulated by two packs. A dual temperature control valve controls each pack by modulating the amount of air directed to an air cycle machine for temperature decrease (pack valve) and the amount of air bypassing the aircycle machine (bypass valve). The bypass valve and the pack valve are linked together and operate in sequence so that when the bypass valve is moved 2.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 1 Aircraft Operations Manual towards open, the pack valve is moved towards closed and vice versa. This allows a temperature regulation of the air leaving the pack. The cooling part of the pack consists of an air cycle machine and a dual heat exchanger mounted on the front end of the air cycle machine. The primary section of the heat exchanger decreases the temperature of the bleed air from the pneumatic system before it enters the compressor of the air cycle machine where the pressure and temperature is increased. The air is then cooled by the secondary heat exchanger section, followed by an expansion over the turbine of the air cycle machine where further temperature decrease occurs. The cooled air is then mixed with hot, bypassed air and with air from the recirculation fan. Before being distributed, the conditioned air is paced through a condenser where moisture in the air from the secondary heat exchanger is condensed using the conditioned air as a cooling agent. The condensed water is collected, routed to the heat exchanger and sprayed into the cooling airstream to improve the cooling. Each pack is protected against overtemperature by two overtemperature switches. One switch is located in the compressor outlet duct and closes if the temperature exceeds 225C (440F). The other switch is located in the pack outlet duct and closes if the temperature exceeds 82C (180F). If an overtemperature occurs, the respective bleed valve will close and the DUCT OV TEMP light in the AIR COND panel will come on together with AIR COND master caution. Distribution system (Fig. 3) Conditioned air is ducted from the left and right air conditioning packs. The left pack supplies the cabin while the right pack supplies cockpit and cabin. The required supply to the cockpit is limited to 1/3 of the available flow from the right pack. Therefore, the supplemental flow from the right pack is routed via a connecting duct to the cabin ducting. A small amount of bleed air is routed from Left and Right Air Conditioning Pack to the Cabin Pressure AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description Air Filter. The air is blown over the filter to prevent a moisture build up in the filter. With Mod. No. 1991 installed, there is a ducting system from Left and Right air Conditioning Packs supplying a limited amount of dry air into the tail− compartment creating a slight overpressure. By supplying a stream of dry air flow to the tail− compartment a reducing moisture build−up in that area will be achieved. If a bleed valve is closed or after an engine failure the air supply is automatically shut off by the Tail− compartment Air Shut−off Valve (see also AOM 16.1.). Two recirculation fans feed air from cockpit and cabin back to the respective pack to improve the airflow. Filters are provided for cleaning of the recirculated air before it enters the recirculation fans. There is also a recirculation fan fault detection system installed. It consists of a speed sensor which triggers L respectively R RECIRC light in the AIR COND panel should the speed drop below 80% of normal speed, indicating failure of the recirculating fan. The avionics rack is ventilated by a fan which draws air from the cabin through a filter into the avionics rack and down to the underfloor area and then dumped overboard through the outflow valves. The avionics vent fan operates whenever anyone of the three AVION switches is in ON position. There is also a vent fan fault detection system installed. It consists of a current detector connected to the avionics vent fan. The detector activates an AVIONICS VENT master caution light should the vent fan stop. External ground equipment for heating or cooling can be connected to the distribution system. The connector is located inside a service door at the bottom of the fuselage in the rear wing area. The external ground equipment connection door is provided with an on the ground (from outside) extendable ram air intake. The ram air intake shall be extended (requires Mod. No. 2305) when dispatching with only one airconditioning pack operating (MEL item). The intake is used as a backup if the operating pack fails. During operation with one Air Conditioning Pack, pressure in the distribution system 2.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 2 Aircraft Operations Manual AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description exceeds the ram air pressure keeping the ground connection check valve closed. Should the remaining ACP fail, ram air pressure opens the check valve furnishing fresh air to the compartments. The ram air pressure is adequate to ventilate the compartments on its own. During cruise a minimum speed of 210 KIAS must be kept to maintain a sufficient ram air pressure. A temperature below freezing is indicated by snow blowing through the gaspers or frost freezing in the gasper nozzles. This situation can block the system creating an overpressure high enough to damage the distribution ducting. Temperature control system (Fig. 1) − Propeller Brake engaged with: X−VALVE open. Each pack has its own, independent temperature control system. The dual temperature control valve can be operated either automatically to provide a compartment temperature of between 18C and 29C, or manually if necessary. However, in MAN mode, temperature can be selected within a greater range. Automatic mode is selected by setting the three position TEMP SELECT switch in the AIR COND panel to AUTO. The dual control valve is then operated by a controller using inputs from temperature sensors both in the duct and in the respective compartment. These temperatures are compared to the temperature selector setting and the control valves adjust accordingly. In addition, high and low temperature limit circuits keep the duct temperature between 3C (25F) and 75C (167F) at all times. The dual temperature control valve is manually operated by holding the TEMP SELECT switch in either HOT or COLD spring−loaded position. Manual temperature mode shall only be used in case of failure in the automatic control system (with Mod. No. 3121 installed the temperature switches are guarded in AUTO position to prevent unnecessary use of the manual mode). Since the temperature limit circuits are deactivated in manual mode extreme care shall be taken not to obtain a temperature below freezing in the distribution duct. Therefore always keep the recirculating fan ON for that pack which is operated in manual mode. The left distribution duct temperature can easily be checked on the temperature indicator in the AIR COND panel. Typical operating conditions with manual temp control when a temperature below 0C is created in the distribution ducting. R HP VALVE open (AUTO position). RECIRC fans OFF. Dual control valves, TEMP SELECT switches, max COLD. − Normal engine operation with: Power levers below approximately 80% Ng (HP VALVES open). RECIRC fans OFF or ON. Dual control valves, TEMP SELECT switches, max COLD. Optional Pilot footwarmer installation (Fig. 3) Mod. No. 1345 As an option the cockpit can be provided with footwarmers. Air is taken from the normal supply to the cockpit, the amount of air can be adjusted by an Air Flow Regulator, one for each pilot. The air temperature is controlled via a heater for each pilot, thereby providing an individual adjustment for optimum comfort. When the footwarmer is used at least one sides− BLEED system including the RECIRC FAN must be ON. Optional Cockpit floor heaters installation (Fig. 10) Mod. No. 2293 As an alternate to Mod No 1345, an optional Cockpit Floor Heater installation Mod No 2293 can be provided. Mod No 2293 consists of an electrically powered heater element embedded in the cockpit floor carpets. Extent of heater element: see Fig. 10. On the right pilot side a pull loop is fixed to the floor carpet close to the hydraulic hand pump position for easy access. 2.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 3 Aircraft Operations Manual The heaters are powered from the UTILITY BUS and are individually controlled by an ON−OFF switch on each side panel. Optional cargo heater installation. Mod. No. 2787 option 21:07 To improve the temperature in the normally non heated cargo compartment an optional electrical cargo heater can be installed. The heater consists of an AC driven heater and a DC driven fan for air circulation. The heater unit is controlled from a dedicated CARGO HEATER ON− OFF switch in the cockpit. To operate, the cargo heater requires both AC generator to be on line, and is accordingly automatically disconnected if either AC generator drops off line. Further more the heater unit is disconnected if the cargo fire extinguisher is activated. With the system in operation the temperature in the cargo compartment will be kept at minimum +2C at OAT −60C and +12C at OAT −40C. The temperature in the cargo compartment can be continuously monitored by the TEMP indicator on the overhead panel. 2.2 Pressurization system (Fig. 4) The cabin is pressurized by both air conditioning packs. The pressure is regulated by two outflow valves, located in the empennage. The primary outflow valve is electro−pneumatically controlled by a pressurization controller and is normally used for automatic pressure regulation. The secondary outflow valve is pneumatically controlled from the cockpit control panel and is used as a manual standby system. Both outflow valves are supplied with servo vacuum pressure from the pneumatic system. The outflow valves also incorporate positive and negative relief functions. For relief valve opening, maximum positive differential pressure is 7.6 psi and maximum negative pressure is 0.5 psi. In the corporate version an additional altitude limit control function is added on the electro−pneumatic primary outflow valve preventing cabin altitude to exceed 15 000 ft should the pressurization controller fail. AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description For emergency pressure relief, the electro−pneumatical outflow valve can be opened by an emergency pressure dump switch. With Mod. No. 1994 installed both outflow valves are opened with the pressure dump switch when on ground. For maintenance purpose the system can be switched to flight mode on ground using the CAB PRESS switch in the overhead TEST 2 panel. Automatic operation When the system is in AUTO and powered, a pressure controller self−test is initiated. This illuminates a FAULT light on the control panel. If no fault is detected, the light will go off in less than 3 seconds. The automatic function of the pressurization system works in six different modes depending on phase of flight: − Ground mode The system is in ground mode when the aircraft is on ground with power levers retarded. Without Mod. No. 1994 installed: After engine start, vacuum pressure is supplied to the outflow valves which will go to fully open position. With Mod. No. 1994 installed: After engine start, vacuum pressure is supplied to the outflow valves which will make the primary electro−pneumatic valve to go to fully open position while the secondary pneumatic valve remains closed (the valve is closed during all normal operation). − Pre−pressurization mode When one power lever is moved above the minimum takeoff power position (64 power lever angle), the system transfers to pre−pressurization mode. Without Mod. No. 1994 installed: The secondary pneumatic outflow valve will close and the primary electro−pneumatical outflow valve is modulated towards its closed position permitting cabin pressurization at a rate of 300 ft/min (at detent position) to 140 ft below actual cabin altitude existing prior to power levers advancement. If both power levers are retarded below the min. takeoff power position the secondary pneumatic outflow valve will go to fully open position and the primary electro−pneumatic valve modulates a cabin uprate of 500 ft/min. After 20 2.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 4 Aircraft Operations Manual sec. a timer will give a control command driving the valve to fully open position. With Mod. No. 1994 installed: The primary electro−pneumatical outflow valve is modulated towards its closed position permitting cabin pressurization at a rate of 300 ft/min (at detent position) to 140 ft below actual cabin altitude existing prior to power levers advancement. If both power levers are retarded below the min. takeoff power position the primary electro−pneumatic valve modulates a cabin uprate of 500 ft/ min. After 20 sec. a timer will give a control command driving the valve to fully open position. − Climb mode At Liftoff as sensed by the weight on wheel switches the system transfers to climb mode. The pneumatic outflow valve will remain closed and the electro−pneumatical valve is regulated by the controller. The controller computes the barometric corrected selected LDG ALT and the sensed aircraft altitude. These parameters are compared with the computed auto−schedule to establish a control point for cabin pressure regulation. The rate of change is set to 500 ft/min (at detent position) for uprate and a zero descent rate. If the actual takeoff altitude is less than the selected LDG ALT, the control point is initially set to the LDG ALT. The controller starts to uprate the cabin until it intercepts the auto−schedule when it change control point and follows the auto−schedule. If the actual takeoff altitude is greater than the selected LGD ALT, the takeoff altitude will be maintained until the auto−schedule exceeds the takeoff altitude. As the aircraft climb and the auto−schedule exceed the takeoff altitude, the controller switch will effect an uprate and follow the auto−schedule. If the system fails to switch to flight mode at liftoff, a backup feature in the pressurization controller will transfer the system to flight mode when aircraft altitude exceeds 15 000 ft. In addition the controller will ensure that the differential pressure never exceeds 7.1 psi. At takeoff with both BLD VALVES switched off both outflow valves will be closed. When switching on the first BLD VALVE the pressurization system goes directly into climb mode. AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description − Cruise mode When the aircraft reaches its cruising level and the altitude change is less than 200 ft per minute the system transfers to cruise mode. Setting the cruise mode effects two changes in the control logic: the down rate limit is revised from zero to 300 ft/min at detent position. the cabin altitude is clamped at the control point, the cabin altitude will remain unchanged for flight disturbances not exceeding 100 ft climb and 200 ft descend in aircraft altitude. However a change in LDG ALT or barometric setting will cause either an up or down rate of cabin altitude. When the aircraft climbs more than 100 ft or descends more than 200ft below the clamped altitude the clamp will be deleted and a new control point will be established when the altitude change again is less than 100 ft per minute. − Descent mode When the aircraft descends 200 ft in less then one minute or descends more than 500 ft regardless of time the system transfers to descent mode. The cruise clamp is deleted and a new control point is established which is the higher of either selected LDG ALT or the auto−scheduled altitude. The controller starts to downrate the cabin and maintains the new control point. − Landing mode When the controller receives signals from the weight on wheel switches at touch down, and aircraft altitude is less than 15000 ft, the system is transferred to landing mode. Without Mod. No. 1994 installed, the pneumatic outflow valve will go to fully open position and the electro−pneumatic valve will modulate a cabin uprate of 500 ft/min. With Mod. No. 1994 installed, the pneumatic outflow valve will remain closed and the electro− pneumatic valve modulates a cabin uprate of 500 ft/min. After 20 sec. a timer will give a control command driving the valve to fully open position, the 20 sec. cabin uprate is to eliminate any error in selected LDG ALT or barometric correction. 2.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 5 Aircraft Operations Manual AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description Manual operation Pressure indication When the AUTO/MAN switch is set to MAN, system pressurization is manually controlled. The pressure system has the following indications: A rotary knob on the pressure control panel is used to set the pneumatic outflow valve in desired position. Rotating the knob clockwise will increase and counterclockwise will decrease the cabin altitude. The electro−pneumatic outflow valve will remain closed. − Differential pressure. − Cabin altitude. − Cabin altitude rate of change. A cabin pressure warning will alert the crew if cabin altitude exceeds 10 000 ft or if cabin differential pressure exceeds 7.5 psi. Any one of these situations will activate the CABIN PRESS master warning. 2.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 6 Aircraft Operations Manual AIR CONDITIONING AND PRESSURIZATION Description (For R side, temperature signals are received from sensors in cockpit and duct.)

NORMAL OPERATION 2.1 CARGO COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE V.S. FLYING TIME, FL AND OAT Cargo compartment temperature varies with OAT at the departure airport, cruising level OAT, FL and duration of flight. In general, as can be seen in below graphs there is a slight temperature increase in the cargo compartment How to use the charts 1. Establish a REFERENCE TEMPERATURE: when OAT at departure airport and at cruising level deviates from ISA, use the lowest temperature (variation from ISA) as REFERENCE TEMPERATURE. 2. Follow the line for the REFERENCE TEMPERATURE until intersect with the FLYING TIME and find the CARGO COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE. Example: Departure Airport OAT . . . . . . . . . .

Since ISA −5° C (−30° C) at cruising level is colder than ISA (+15° C) temperature at the departure airport, the ISA −5° C shall be used as REFERENCE TEMPERATURE to establish cargo compartment temperature. Answer: Lowest cargo compartment temperature will be about +1° C.

NOTE Running a recirculation fan creates heat around the fan itself. If a recirc fan is running (on ground) without the corresponding ACM more than approx. 10 minutes (depending on OAT) a thermo switch will turn off the fan for a considerable time until the temperature has decreased and the thermo switch automatically resets.

GENERAL 1.1 Flight Guidance & Autopilot System (FGAS) The FGAS consists of a Flight Control Computer (FCC) including the Flight Director/Autopilot (FD/ AP) elevator and rudder autotrim functions and the Yaw Damper (YD) which provides directional stability augmentation. The Yaw Damper and the rudder autotrim will together provide ”zero ball” function. The FCC is also provided with a self−monitoring function for maintenance and troubleshooting. The FCC interfaces with various aircraft systems, such as the Air Data System (ADS), Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), NAV radios, Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS), Altitude Preselect/Alert System (APA). The FCC functions are controlled by the Mode Select Panel (MSP) Autopilot Panel (APP) and by the AP disengage buttons, VERT SYNC buttons and the GA buttons. The Flight Control Computer (FCC) provides steering command signals for control of the flight path during all normal phases of flight. The FCC signals are fed to the FD command bars/symbols on the Electronic Attitude Director Indicator (EADI) and to the control surfaces servo actuators. The FCC starts operation in Heading (HDG) and Vertical Speed (VS) modes 10 seconds after AHRS flags have disappeared. AP/YD can be engaged after another 30 seconds which is the time of FCC internal test sequence. 1.2 FD/AP Flight director, FD The FD function provides visual guidance commands to fly the aircraft manually or to visually monitor the AP response to the guidance commands. The guidance commands (pitch and roll indication) are selected with the FD operating mode pushbuttons on the MSP. Pitch and roll guidance cues as well as mode information from the FD are displayed on the EADI’s. The FD command bars on the EADI’s direct the pilot to turn, climb or descend. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description Autopilot with yaw damper, AP/YD The AP function controls the aircraft in pitch and roll maneuvering axes on commands from the FD. The YD function is a part of the AP rudder steer channel and provides directional stability. Appropriate control surfaces are actuated by the AP to control the aircraft for the selected FD lateral and vertical mode of operation. The MSP contains pushbuttons for manual selection of desired FD modes of operation. The FD modes will if the AP is engaged automatically control aircraft pitch and roll attitude for the following maneuvers: fly to and maintain a preselected rate of climb or descent; maintain an existing altitude; descend or climb to and maintain a preselected altitude; fly to and maintain an existing heading; fly to, capture and track a selected VOR or localizer course; capture and track a glideslope. FD modes Captured (active) modes are annunciated on the EADI’s in green text. Armed (selected) modes are annunciated on the EADI’s in white text. In the following mode descriptions ”ARM” and ”CAP” are used to indicate armed or captured phase of the described mode. When a mode is changed, the new mode annunciation blinks for 5 secs. For details on annunciations see Fig. 5 and AOM 15/1.1, NAVIGATION EFIS. The following modes and functions are available: − Vertical modes VS (basic mode) IAS CLIMB ALT ALTS VNAV (if installed) PTCH (Reversionary Mode; not manually selectable) VERT SYNC (a synchronization function selectable on the control wheel). − Lateral modes HDG (basic mode) NAV 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 1 Aircraft Operations Manual − Combined modes APPR GA (FD mode only; selectable on the power levers). − Diagnostic mode (Maintenance — fault isolation in FGAS; selectable only on ground.) 1.3 FD/AP and Yaw Damper engagement/ disconnect, autotrim system and Command Cutout The FD/AP and Yaw Damper may be engaged in the normal flight envelope with certain limitation as stated in AOM 3.2. The AP can be engaged either to the FD on left EADI or to the FD on right EADI by pushing the AP XFR (Auto pilot transfer) button on the APP. An arrow beside the AP engaged annunciation on the EADI’s will show which FD gives steering commands. The FD display on the EADI can be activated/deactivated by consecutive pushes of the FD button on the Display Control Panel (DCP) except for in APPR mode where the FD bar always is displayed. The AP/YD engage levers on the Autopilot Panel (APP) allow independent yaw damper engagement. When engaging the autopilot, however, the yaw damper will also be engaged as well as the elevator and rudder autotrim systems. Rudder autotrim is available also when only YD is engaged. The autotrims are continuously retrimming the aircraft depending on the flight conditions in order to minimize the torque applied on the autopilot servos and to keep the control forces at zero. Difficulties to trim out the control forces are indicated on the EADI’s by the RUD, AIL or EL annunciators. There is also an AUTO TRIM warning light on the Central Warning Panel, which will come on if the AP auto trim or YD auto trim system should fail. The AP/YD can be disengaged − by pushing the AP disconnect button on the control wheel. A second push will reset the aural warning. − by moving the AP/YD levers to DISENGAGED position. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description − by selecting GA (L/R Power lever button). − by operating the pitch trim switches. (AP disengage only.) The Stall warning computers will automatically disengage the AP/YD if a stall situation should occur. The AP/YD will also disengage automatically when the monitoring function detects certain failures. When the autopilot becomes disengaged, the aural warning ”cavalry charge” comes on. The warning can be reset by pushing the AP disconnect button and with the GA button. Command Cutout The autopilot will not disconnect at extreme attitudes. There is however a feature in the autopilot known as Command Cutout, which means that at extreme pitch rates/normal accelerations and/or roll rates/bank angles, the autopilot will cease to give steering commands. Once the aircraft is back to normal attitudes ( below the command cutout triggering levels) the autopilot will resume to give steering commands. The triggering levels for command cutout are: − Pitch rate greater than 5/sec or normal acceleration greater than 0.6 G beyond 1.0 G. The pitch cutout is canceled when the pitch rate is less than 5/sec and normal acceleration less than 0.2 G beyond 1.0 G. − Roll rate greater than 21/sec or bank angle greater than 45. The roll cutout is canceled when the roll rate is less than 5/sec and bank angle less than 45. Command cutouts will not disconnect the autopilot. 1.4 Mode description VERTICAL MODES VS, Vertical Speed Mode − The FCC gives pitch attitude commands to maintain the vertical speed existing at time of mode engagement or − if already in VS mode at time of pressing and releasing the VERT SYNC button on the control wheel. A new vertical speed reference can be selected by the pitch knob on the APP in steps of 50 ft. Basic mode at power on. Selectable by VS mode button. FCC reverts automatically to VS 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 2 Aircraft Operations Manual if the pitch knob is moved out of its detent except in GS ”CAP” or ALTS mode. − Selection of/Reversion to VS clears any previously selected vertical mode except GS ”CAP” and ALTS. IAS, Indicated Airspeed mode − The FCC gives pitch attitude commands to maintain the IAS existing at time of mode engagement or − if already in IAS − at time of pressing and releasing the VERT SYNC button. − Mode selectable by pushing the IAS mode button on the MSP. Selection of IAS clears any previously selected vertical mode except ALTS and GS ”CAP”. CLIMB mode − The FCC computes and updates a climb IAS displayed on the EADI. The computed IAS is a function of altitude at medium aircraft weight. − There are three climb mode settings (Rate of Climb, R−o−C) to be used for the computation of IAS. They are selectable by cycling the CLIMB mode push button on MSP. The desired climb setting annunciated on EFIS, ”H”, ”M” and ”L” respectively, is related to their effect on IAS (High, Medium and Low IAS). − One push gives a rather low, R−o−C (H), two pushes a medium R−o−C (M) and three pushes give the best R−o−C (L). This is the sequence when climb mode is selected the first time after power up. The last selected climb setting will reappear when climb mode is reselected after a vertical mode change. − Selection of CLIMB mode clears any previously selected vertical mode except GS ”CAP” and ALTS. ALT − FCC holds the altitude existing at time of mode engagement or − if already in ALT − at time of pressing and releasing the VERT SYNC button. A Flight advisory IAS for Long Range Cruise will be displayed on the EADI when ALT mode is in track. − The computed IAS is a function of altitude at medium aircraft weight. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description − Selectable by ALT mode button. − Selection of ALT clears any previously selected vertical mode except ALTS and GS ”CAP”. − The altitude is held regardless of barometer settings. ALTS − When approaching the altitude selected on the APA the FCC will command an asymptotic capture profile and holding of the selected altitude. − The capture point is variable and is a function of aircraft vertical speed. − The ALTS submode is always armed for capture of the altitude selected on the APA. Once engaged, the ALTS clears any other vertical mode except GS ”CAP”. Furthermore, it is not possible to select any other vertical mode except GA until a new altitude is selected on the APA; GS ”CAP” will automatically cancel ALTS. A Flight advisory IAS for Long Range cruise will be displayed on the EADI when ALTS mode is in track. The computed IAS is a function of altitude at medium aircraft weight. − For visual and aural altitude alert signals, see AOM 12/1.1, AIR DATA SYSTEM. − The altitude selected on the APA will follow the barometer settings made on the left altimeter. VNAV, Vertical Navigation Mode (If installed) − The VNAV mode works in conjunction with the VNI (Vertical Navigation Indicator) if installed. − Selectable if a VNAV path has been defined on the VNI and it is less than three minutes to the determined descend/climb point. − Mode is armed by pushing the VNAV button on the MSP and the letters VNAV will be indicated on the EADI. − The FCC will continue in the existing vertical mode until capture conditions have been met, then automatically capture and track a VNAV path as defined on the VNI. − At capture VNAV clears any previously selected vertical mode except ALTS. − Vertical command data provided by the VNI are displayed on the EHSI by the vertical deviation 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 3 Aircraft Operations Manual pointer. When in VNAV mode the letters VNV will be indicated above the deviation scale. NOTE The deviation scale can also display GS (Glide Slope). − If a failure to the VNAV system occurs the vertical deviation pointer will be replaced by the letters VNV boxed and in red. The indication will flash for 10 seconds and then become steady. PTCH, Pitch hold mode FCC commands holding of the pitch attitude existing at time of engagement. PTCH is not manually selectable but a reversionary mode which is engaged when: a. VERT SYNC button pressed and released while i n GA mode. b. VS button pressed and released while in VS mode with invalid data required for VS mode (i.e. FD flag is present on display). VERT SYNC, Vertical Synchronization If for any reason the aircraft is allowed to deviate from the FCC commands in certain vertical modes, normally only when flying manually (VS, IAS, ALT, GA) the respective reference data can be synchronized to the existing flight condition by the VERT SYNC button on the control wheel. The synchronization occurs at the time of pressing and becomes activated when releasing the VERT SYNC button. The reference data is changed in the respective mode as follows: a. if in VS mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing vertical speed. b. if in IAS mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing IAS. c. if in ALT mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing ALT. d. if in GA mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing attitude. The vertical mode display on EADI simultaneously changes from GA to PTCH. It is only the reference data that is changed. The respective mode function is retained. Pitch trim is not affected. AP will remain engaged. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description LATERAL MODES HDG, Heading mode − The FCC gives commands to turn to and hold the heading indicated by the heading bug on the EHSI. Turn is in the direction of shortest arc. The heading bug can be manually moved either by the HDG knob on the Course Heading Panel (CHP) or by the TURN knob on the APP. The bug will automatically synchronize to existing heading when the system is powered up. − Basic mode at power on. Selectable by HDG mode button. − Selection of HDG mode clears any previously selected lateral mode. Heading can be preset before selecting HDG mode. NAV, Navigation system mode − The FCC commands capture and tracking of the course defined by the active navigational data displayed on the EFIS (VOR, LOC, BC or RNAV if installed). NOTE Applicable to FCC 85/86−210: The capture and tracking gain in NAV−mode is dependant on the distance to the VOR−station. In the new Flight Control Computer software − FCC 85/86−210 − DME−data is used in the control law such that the gain will be based on the distance, leading to improved performance. However, if no DME−data is available (e.g. when VOR2 is used as NAV−source) the gain will be based on a default value equal to a far distance from the VOR. This will lead to overshoots at short distances during capture and tracking. The capture point depends on intercept angle and closure rate. − GS is inhibited in NAV mode. − Mode is armed by pushing the NAV mode button. FCC automatically reverts to HDG and desired intercept heading can be selected on the heading bug. − Mode is engaged at the capture point and NAV ”CAP” is displayed on EADI. − NAV mode is retained if changing NAV data source. 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 4 Aircraft Operations Manual − NAV mode is cleared by selecting HDG or APPR. 1/2 BANK, Half bank mode (If installed) − The Half bank mode is a submode to HDG and NAV. It reduces the bank limit from 27 to 13.5 in these modes. − Mode is selectable by pushing the 1/2 BANK button, and indicated on the MSP only; it has no mode annunciator on the EADI. Mode is turned off by a second push on the button. − The mode is suppressed at APPR LOC/VOR capture. COMBINED MODES APPR, Approach mode − The FCC functions in principle as in NAV mode but commands are also given for vertical capture/ tracking if an ILS GS is available. Radio altimeter information is used to gainprogram the radio signals for increased precision during the approach. − Mode is armed by pushing the APPR button. FCC automatically reverts to HDG and desired intercept heading can be selected on the heading bug. − Mode is engaged at the respective capture point and the LOC/VOR ”CAP” and GS ”CAP” information are displayed on EADI. − FD display can not be removed by pushing FD buttons on DCP. − The following types of approaches are possible: a. ILS: localizer capture is indicated by EADI lateral mode annunciation changes to LOC ”CAP”, GS ”ARM” is displayed for the vertical axis. GS shall be captured from below the beam. In GS ”CAP” a new vertical mode can only be selected after a new lateral mode has been selected (other than APPR). b. BC, Back Course: The Back Course is automatically corrected for by EFIS and annunciated by a yellow B/C replacing the GS ”CAP” indication on the EADI/EHSI. With the CRS selector set for the normal Localizer inbound course the LOC symbols on the EADI/EHSI are not reversed when flying: −Inbound on the Back course. −Outbound on the Localizer inbound course. BC approach operates like LOC, except for slightly different gains. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description Vertical profile has to be flown by pilot inputs. c. VOR: Operation is similar to NAV except tighter gains, VOR ”CAP” or ”ARM” are displayed. Vertical profile has to be flown by pilot inputs. GA, Go−Around mode − The FCC commands existing heading hold and a fixed pitch up attitude (6,4) on the FD. NOTE If the aircraft is in altitude preselect or track capture (ALTS “CAP” and ALTS “TRACK”), these modes might be immediately recaptured and the resulting FD command will not indicate a climb. − Mode can be selected at any time by pressing either GA button in the power levers. GA is displayed on the lateral and vertical mode annunciations on EADI. Since GA is a FD mode only, the AP and YD will disengage. − Selection of GA clears any previously selected lateral and vertical mode (ALTS “CAP” and ALTS “TRACK” might however be immediately recaptured if these modes were captured when GA was selected). − At re−engagement of the AP, the FCC remains in GA mode in the lateral axis while the vertical mode will become VS. The heading bug will not be synchronized at GA selection, but the existing heading at GA initiation will be maintained until another lateral mode is selected. MAINTENANCE Diagnostic mode − Provides a multiple line display on EFIS to assist in failure analysis. − Report mode is the one of the three available basic submodes that is to be notified here. − Available on ground only with AP and YD disengaged but before power shutdown. 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 5 Aircraft Operations Manual 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Flight Control Computer (FCC) The FD/AP computer is the heart of the flight control system. The signals received from various other systems are converted into command signals according to the selected mode of operation. Command signals are fed to the FD command bars for display of pitch and roll steering. With the AP engaged, identical signals are transformed for actuation of the rudder, aileron and elevator servo and also the elevator and rudder trim system. See Fig. 1. FGAS system schematic. 2.2 AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description 2.6 Vertical Navigation Indicator (VNI) (if installed) The Vertical Navigation Indicator/computer (VNI) serves as a vertical speed indicator. In addition it computes data for vertical navigation to be used by the FCC. The VNI can also be used in conjunction with the Altitude Preselector for automatic capture of selected altitude. Mode Select Panel (MSP) Located on the glareshield panel. Contains push buttons for selection of FD lateral and vertical modes. All buttons except 1/2 BANK mode have only on−function, i.e a mode can only be deselected by selection of another mode. Half bank mode (if installed) button has an on/off function. 2.3 Autopilot Panel (APP) Located on the pedestal. Contains engage/disengage levers for AP and YD and controls for heading and vertical speed changes. 2.4 NAV source selection There are two navigation source selection push buttons with built in indicators (NAV S.L. and NAV S.R.) on the glareshield panel. The push buttons are used to couple left or right navigation source as input to the FD/AP. 2.5 Altitude Preselector Alerter (APA) The altitude preselect mode causes the system to capture the altitude selected on the preselector/ alerter. Any other vertical mode may be used prior to altitude capture. At capture, other vertical modes are cleared and command signals are generated to level off the aircraft at the selected altitude. For the altitude alert function, see AOM 12/1.1, AIR DATA SYSTEM. 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 6 Aircraft Operations Manual NAV S L AUTOFLIGHT, CAT I Description NAV S R AP control panel Altitude preselect/ alert panel ALT SEL Nav data EFIS 1 & 2 FD/AP mode select panel AP disconnect button Vert sync button Radio altim DME NO 1 VNI (if installed) Vert Nav data FD/AP flight control computer (FCC) ADS (Including yaw damper) (YD) Air data Control wheels (Right CW shown) GA buttons in power levers AHRS 1 & 2 ATT/HDG data Rudder servo Pitch trim system Aileron servo FD command and engagement signals to EFIS Elevator servo FD/AP mode annunciation and diagnostic to EFIS Elevator autotrim Rudder autotrim A13574 Fig. 1 FGAS − system schematics 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 S 7 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

The knob is used to manually apply heading commands to FD/AP. Moving TURN knob out of detent slews the HDG bug at a rate proportional to amount of knob displacement. PITCH wheel. Pitch wheel is spring loaded to return to a center detent position. The wheel is used to manually apply vertical speed commands to FD/AP in steps of 50 ft. Moving pitch wheel from detent resets vertical mode to VS (except in GS ”CAP” and ALTS mode) and then slews vertical speed reference at rate proportional to the amount of wheel displacement.

Select ALT mode, verify mode annunciation on EADI and re−engage autopilot. ALERTER FAILURE TO CAPTURE SET ALTITUDE When a mode data source fails to a flagged condition, the FD command bars will disappear from view, the red FD flag will appear. In such an event, the pilot is responsible for evaluating the situation and taking proper action such as disengaging the autopilot or changing flight director modes. Other failure modes can occur which will provide different cues such as aircraft attitude or flight path changes and it is always the pilots responsibility to monitor system operation against raw data and other sources. However, the following paragraphs (3.6 and 3.7) describe two important situations more in detail. 3.6 LOC/GS GROUND STATION INTERRUPTION When flying in APPR or NAV mode and LOC and/or GS capture.

GENERAL 1.1 Flight Guidance & Autopilot System (FGAS) The FGAS consists of a Flight Control Computer (FCC) including two independent Flight Directors and a single, fail passive Autopilot (FD/AP) elevator and rudder autotrim functions and the Yaw Damper (YD) which provides directional stability augmentation. The Yaw Damper and the rudder autotrim will together provide ”zero ball” function. The FCC is also provided with a self−monitoring function for maintenance and troubleshooting. The FCC interfaces with various aircraft systems, such as the Air Data System (ADS), Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), NAV. radios, Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS), Altitude Preselect/Alert System (APA). The FCC functions are controlled by the Mode Select Panels (MSP) Autopilot Panel (APP) and the buttons AP disengage buttons, VERT SYNC button and GA buttons. The Flight Control Computer (FCC) provides steering command signals for control of the flight path in a coordinated manner during all normal phases of flight. The FCC signals are fed to the FD command bars/symbol on the Electronic Attitude Director Indicators (EADI) and to the control surfaces servo actuators. The FCC starts operation in Heading (HDG) and Vertical Speed (VS) modes 10 seconds after AHRS flags have disappeared. AP/YD can be engaged after another 30 seconds which is the time of FCC internal test sequence. 1.2 FD/AP Flight director, FD The FD function provides visual guidance commands to fly the aircraft manually or to visually monitor the AP response to the guidance commands. The guidance commands (pitch, roll and speed indication) are selected with the FD operating mode pushbuttons on the MSP. Pitch and roll guidance cues as well as mode information from the FD are displayed on the EADI’s. The FD command bars on the EADI’s direct the pilot to turn, climb or descend. A Fast/Slow indication reflects aircraft speed in relation to speed selection. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Description Autopilot with yaw damper, AP/YD The AP function controls the aircraft in pitch and roll maneuvering axes on commands from the FD. The YD function is a part of the AP rudder steer channel and provides directional stability. Appropriate control surfaces are actuated by the AP to control the aircraft for the selected FD lateral and vertical mode of operation. The MSP contains pushbuttons for manual selection of desired FD modes of operation. The FD modes will if the AP is engaged automatically control aircraft pitch and roll attitude for the following maneuvers: fly to and maintain a preselected rate of climb or descent; maintain an existing altitude; descend or climb to and maintain a preselected altitude; fly to and maintain an existing heading; fly to, capture and track a selected VOR or localizer course; capture and track a glideslope. FD modes The modes of the two independent FD channels are synchronized by a cross−talk function between the two separate FD computers, except for in APPR mode. Captured (active) modes are annunciated on the EADI’s in green text. Armed (selected) modes are annunciated on the EADI’s in white text. In the following mode descriptions ”ARM” and ”CAP” are used to indicate armed or captured phase of the described mode. When a mode is changed, the new mode annunciation blinks for 5 secs. For details on annunciations see Fig. 5 and AOM 15/1.1, NAVIGATION EFIS. The following modes and functions are available: − Vertical modes VS (basic mode) IAS CLIMB ALT ALTS VNAV (if installed) PTCH (Reversionary Mode; not manually selectable) VERT SYNC (a synchronization function selectable on the control wheel). 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 O 1 Aircraft Operations Manual − Lateral modes HDG (basic mode) NAV − Combined modes APPR GA (FD mode only; selectable on the power levers). − Diagnostic mode (Maintenance − fault isolation in FGAS; selectable only on ground.) 1.3 FD/AP and Yaw Damper engagement/ disconnect, autotrim system and Command Cutout The FD/AP and Yaw Damper may be engaged in the normal flight envelope with certain limitations as stated in AOM 3.2. The AP can be engaged either to the FD on left EADI or to the FD on right EADI by pushing the AP XFR (Auto pilot transfer) button on the APP. An arrow beside the AP engaged annunciation on the EADI’s will show which FD gives steering commands. The FD display on the EADI’s can be activated/ deactivated by consecutive pushes of the FD button on the Display Control Panel (DCP) except for in APPR mode where the FD bar always is displayed. The AP/YD engage levers on the Autopilot Panel (APP) allow independent yaw damper engagement. When engaging the autopilot, however, the yaw damper will also be engaged as well as the elevator and rudder autotrim systems. Rudder Autotrim is available also when only YD is engaged. The autotrims are continuously retrimming the aircraft depending on the flight conditions in order to minimize the torque applied on the autopilot servos and to keep the control forces at zero. Difficulties to trim out the control forces are indicated on the EADI’s by the RUD, AIL or EL annunciators. There is also an AUTO TRIM warning light on the Central Warning Panel which will come on if the AP auto trim or YD auto trim system should fail. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Description The AP/YD can be disengaged − by pushing the AP disconnect button on the control wheel. A second push will reset the aural warning. − by moving the AP/YD levers to DISENGAGED position. − by selecting GA. (L/R Power Lever button.) − by operating the pitch trim switches. (AP diseng. only.) The Stall warning computers will automatically disengage the AP/YD if a stall situation should occur. The AP/YD will also disengage automatically when the monitoring function detects certain failures. When the autopilot becomes disengaged, the aural warning ”cavalry charge” comes on. The warning can be reset by pushing the AP disconnect button and with the GA button. Command Cutout The autopilot will not disconnect at extreme attitudes. There is however a feature in the autopilot known as Command Cutout, which means that at extreme pitch rates/normal accelerations and/or roll rates/bank angles, the autopilot will cease to give steering commands. Once the aircraft is back to normal attitudes ( below the command cutout triggering levels) the autopilot will resume to give steering commands. The triggering levels for command cutout are: − Pitch rate greater than 5/sec or normal acceleration greater than 0.6 G beyond 1.0 G. The pitch cutout is canceled when the pitch rate is less than 5/sec and normal acceleration less than 0.2 G beyond 1.0 G. − Roll rate greater than 21/sec or bank angle greater than 45. The roll cutout is canceled when the roll rate is less than 5/sec and bank angle less than 45. Command cutouts will not disconnect the autopilot. 1.4 Mode description VERTICAL MODES VS, Vertical Speed Mode − The FCC gives pitch attitude commands to maintain the vertical speed existing at time of mode engagement or − if already in VS mode at time of pressing and releasing the VERT SYNC button 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 O 2 Aircraft Operations Manual on the control wheel. A new vertical speed reference can be selected by the pitch knob on the APP in steps of 50 ft. − The VS speed reference is only displayed on the EADI with the commanding FD. − Basic mode at power on. Selectable by VS mode button. FCC reverts automatically to VS if the pitch knob is moved out of its detent except in GS ”CAP” or ALTS mode. − Selection of/Reversion to VS clears any previously selected vertical mode except GS ”CAP” and ALTS. IAS, Indicated Airspeed mode − The FCC gives pitch attitude commands to maintain the IAS existing at time of mode engagement or − if already in IAS − at time of pressing and releasing the VERT SYNC button. − The IAS reference is only displayed on the EADI with the commanding FD. − IAS ref.command can also be provided by IAS bug on the ASI. − Mode selectable by pushing the IAS mode button on the MSP. Selection of IAS clears any previously selected vertical mode except GS ”CAP” and ALTS. CLIMB mode − The FCC computes and updates a climb IAS displayed on the EADI. The computed IAS is a function of altitude at medium aircraft weight. − There are three climb mode settings (Rate of Climb, R−o−C) to be used for the computation of IAS. They are selectable by cycling the CLIMB mode push button on MSP. The desired climb setting annunciated on EFIS, ”H”, ”M” and ”L” respectively, is related to their effect on IAS (High, Medium and Low IAS). − One push gives a rather low R−o−C (H), two pushes a medium R−o−C (M) and three pushes give the best R−o−C (L). This is the sequence when climb mode is selected the first time after power up. The last selected climb setting will reappear when climb mode is reselected after a vertical mode change. − Selection of CLIMB mode clears any previously selected vertical mode except GS ”CAP” and ALTS. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Description ALT − FCC holds the altitude existing at time of mode engagement or − if already in ALT − at time of pressing and releasing the VERT SYNC button. A Flight advisory IAS for Long Range Cruise will be displayed on the EADI when ALT mode is in track. The computed IAS is a function of altitude at medium aircraft weight. − Selectable by ALT mode button. − Selection of ALT clears any previously selected vertical mode except GS ”CAP” and ALTS. − The altitude is held regardless of barometer settings. ALTS − When approaching the altitude selected on the APA the FCC will command an asymptotic capture profile and holding of the selected altitude. − The capture point is a variable and is a function of aircraft vertical speed. − The ALTS submode is always armed for capture of the altitude selected on the APA. Once engaged, the ALTS clears any other vertical mode except GS ”CAP”. Furthermore, it is not possible to select any other vertical mode except GA until a new altitude is selected on the APA, GS ”CAP” will automatically cancel ALTS. A Flight advisory IAS for Long Range Cruise will be displayed on the EADI when the ALTS mode is in track. The computed IAS is a function of altitude at medium aircraft weight. − The altitude selected on the APA will follow the barometer settings made on the left altimeter. − For visual and aural altitude alert signals, see AOM 12/1.1, AIR DATA SYSTEM. VNAV, Vertical Navigation Mode (If installed) − The VNAV mode works in conjunction with the VNI (Vertical Navigation Indicator) if installed. − Selectable if a VNAV path has been defined on the VNI and it is less than three minutes to the determined descend/climb point. − Mode is armed by pushing the VNAV button on the MSP and the letters VNAV will be indicated on the EADI. − The FCC will continue in the existing vertical mode until capture conditions have been met, 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 O 3 Aircraft Operations Manual then automatically capture and track a VNAV path as defined on the VNI. − At capture VNAV clears any previously selected vertical mode. − Vertical command data provided by the VNI are displayed on the EHSI by the vertical deviation pointer. When in VNAV mode the letters VNV will be indicated above the deviation scale. NOTE The deviation scale can also display GS (Glide Slope). − If a failure to the VNAV system occurs the vertical deviation pointer will be replaced by the letters VNV boxed and in red. The indication will flash for 10 seconds and then become steady. PTCH, Pitch hold mode FCC commands holding of the pitch attitude existing at time of engagement. − PTCH is not manually selectable but a reversionary mode which is engaged when: a. VERT SYNC button pressed and released while in GA mode. b. VS button pressed and released while in VS mode with invalid data required for VS mode (i.e. FD flag is present on display). VERT SYNC, Vertical Synchronization If for any reason the aircraft is allowed to deviate from the FCC commands in certain vertical modes, normally only when flying manually (VS, IAS, ALT and GA) the respective reference data can be synchronized to the existing flight condition by the VERT SYNC button on the control wheel with the commanding FD. No crosstalk function between the two FDs. The synchronization occurs at the time of pressing and becomes activated when releasing the VERT SYNC button. The reference data is changed in the respective mode as follows: a. if in VS mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing vertical speed. b. if in IAS mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing IAS. c. if in ALT mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing ALT. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Description d. if in GA mode, the FCC reference data changes to existing attitude. The vertical mode display on EADI simultaneously changes from GA to PTCH. It is only the reference data that is changed. The respective mode function is retained. Pitch trim is not affected. AP will remain engaged. LATERAL MODES HDG, Heading mode − The FCC gives commands to turn to and hold the heading indicated by the heading bug on the EHSI. Turn is in the direction of shortest arc. The heading bug can be manually moved either by the HDG knob on the Course Heading Panel (CHP) or by the TURN knob on the APP. The bug will automatically synchronize to existing heading when the system is powered up. − Basic mode at power on. Selectable by HDG mode button. − Selection of HDG mode clears any previously selected lateral mode. Heading can be preset before selecting HDG mode. NAV, Navigation system mode − The FCC commands capture and tracking of the course defined by the active navigational data displayed on the EFIS (VOR, LOC, BC or RNAV if installed). The capture point depends on intercept angle and closure rate. NOTE Applicable to FCC 85/86−210: The capture and tracking gain in NAV−mode is dependant on the distance to the VOR−station. In the new Flight Control Computer software − FCC 85/86−210 − DME−data is used in the control law such that the gain will be based on the distance, leading to improved performance. However, if no DME−data is available (e.g. when VOR2 is used as NAV−source) the gain will be based on a default value equal to a far distance from the VOR. This will lead to overshoots at short distances during capture and tracking. − GS is inhibited in NAV mode. − Mode is armed by pushing the NAV mode button. FCC automatically reverts to HDG and desired 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 O 4 Aircraft Operations Manual intercept heading can be selected on the heading bug. − Mode is engaged at the capture point and NAV ”CAP” is displayed on EADI. − NAV mode is retained if changing NAV data source. − NAV mode is cleared by selecting HDG or APPR. 1/2 BANK, Half bank mode (if installed) − The Half bank mode is a submode to HDG and NAV. It reduces the bank limit from 27 to 13.5 in these modes. − Mode is selectable by pushing the 1/2 Bank button, and indicated on the MSP only; it has no mode annunciator on the EADI. Mode is turned off by a second push on the button. Half bank must be selected on both MSP to have equal information on both FD. NOTE Half bank mode is only activated and deactivated on the selected side. COMBINED MODES APPR, Approach mode − The FCC functions in principle as in NAV mode but commands are also given for vertical capture/ tracking if an ILS GS is available. Radio altimeter information is used to gainprogram the radio signals for increased precision during the approach. − Mode is armed by pushing the APPR button. FCC automatically reverts to HDG and desired intercept heading can be selected on the heading bug. − Selection of APPR mode will cancel the slaving function of the two FD channels modes and MSP’s. − Mode is engaged at the respective capture point and the LOC/VOR ”CAP” and GS ”CAP” information are displayed on EADI. − FD display cannot be removed by pushing FD buttons on DCP. − The following types of approaches are possible: a. ILS: localizer capture is indicated by EADI lateral mode annunciation changes to LOC ”CAP”, GS ”ARM” is displayed for the vertical axis. GS shall be captured from below the beam. AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Description In GS ”CAP” a new vertical mode can only be selected after a new lateral mode has been selected (other than APPR). b. BC, Back Course: The back course is automatically corrected for by EFIS and annunciated by a yellow B/C replacing the GS ”CAP” indication on the EADI/EHSI. With the CRS selector set for the normal Localizer inbound course the LOC symbols on the EADI/EHSI are not reversed when flying: −Inbound on the Back course. −Outbound on the Localizer inbound course. BC approach operates like LOC, except for slightly different gains. Vertical profile has to be flown by pilot inputs. c. VOR: Operation is similar to NAV except tighter gains, VOR ”CAP” or ”ARM” are displayed Vertical profile has to be flown by pilot inputs. GA, Go−Around mode − The FCC commands existing heading hold and a fixed pitch up attitude (6,4) on the FD. NOTE If the aircraft is in altitude preselect or track capture (ALTS “CAP” and ALTS “TRACK”), these modes might be immediately recaptured and the resulting FD command will not indicate a climb. − Mode can be selected at any time by pressing the GA button in the power levers. GA is displayed on the lateral and vertical mode annunciations on EADI. Since GA is a FD mode only, the AP and YD will disengage. − Selection of GA clears any previously selected lateral and vertical mode (ALTS “CAP” and ALTS “TRACK” might however be immediately recaptured if these modes were captured when GA was selected). − At re−engagement of the AP, the FCC remains in GA mode in the lateral axis while the vertical mode will become VS. MAINTENANCE Diagnostic mode − Provides a multiple line display on EFIS to assist in failure analysis. 3.1 PAGE Jun 30/15 O 5 Aircraft Operations Manual − Report mode is the one of the three available basic submodes that is to be notified. − Available on ground only with AP and YD disengaged but before power shut−down. − Diagnostics can be performed independently on either left or right FCC channel and displayed on the respective EFIS side. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Flight Control Computer (FCC) The FD/AP computer is the heart of the flight control system. The signals received from various other systems are converted into command signals according to the selected mode of operation. Command signals are fed to the FD command bar for display of pitch and roll steering. With the AP engaged, identical signals are transformed for actuation of rudder, aileron and elevator servos and also the pitch and rudder trim system. See Fig. 1, FGAS − system schematic. 2.2 Mode Select Panel (MSP) There are two MSP’s, one for each FD channel, located on each side of the glareshield panel. They contain push buttons for selection of FD lateral and vertical modes. All buttons except 1/2 BANK mode have only on−function, i.e a mode can only be deselected by selection of another mode. Half bank mode (if installed) button has an on/off function. Selecting a new mode on one side will also change the opposite MSP to the same mode except when leaving APPR for a new mode. 1/2 BANK will only change bank mode on selected side and must thus be selected on both MSP. 2.3 Autopilot Panel (APP) AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Description are used to couple left or right navigation source as input to the FD/AP. 2.5 Altitude Preselector Alerter (APA) The altitude preselect mode causes the system to capture the altitude selected on the preselector/alerter. Any other vertical mode may be used prior to altitude capture. At capture, other vertical modes are cleared and command signals are generated to level off the aircraft at the selected altitude. For the altitude alert function, see AOM 12/1.1, AIR DATA SYSTEM. 2.6 Vertical Navigation Indicator (VNI). (If installed) The Vertical Navigation Indicator/computer (VNI) serves as a vertical speed indicator. In addition it computes data for vertical navigation to be used by the FCC. he VNI can also be used in conjunction with the Altitude Preselector for automatic capture of selected altitude. 2.7 Loss of approach warning. (If Mod 1790 SB SF340 34−049 installed) The autopilot system is provided with a ”loss of approach mode” warning which is only active on that side to which the autopilot is coupled to and when the aircraft radio height is between 90−1000 ft. The warning will disengage the AP/YD and will activate the ”cavalry charge” aural alert. This occurs if any of the following criteria are met: − AP built−in test detects nonvalid APPR mode. − Pilot deselects APPR mode. − LOC frequency becomes changed to VOR frequency when established on LOC and GS. Located on the pedestal. Contains engage/disengage levers for AP and YD, a button for AP transfer between the two FCC channels and controls for heading and vertical speed changes. 2.4 NAV source selection There are two navigation source selection push buttons with built in indicators (NAV S.L. and NAV S.R.) on the glareshield panel.

A AP CONTROL PANEL A TURN DN ENGAGED YD AP UP DISENGAGED YD/AP engage levers. The YD and AP engage levers are spring loaded to DISENGAGED position. Moving levers to ENGAGE position engages Yaw Damper and Autopilot after a selftest period of one (1) sec. YD may be engaged separately. Moving AP lever to ENGAGED will engage both YD and AP. TURN knob/pitch wheel. TURN knob. The rate type TURN knob is spring loaded to return to a center detent position. The knob is used to manually apply heading commands to FD/AP. Moving TURN knob out of detent slews the HDG bug at a rate proportional to amount of knob displacement. PITCH wheel. Pitch wheel is spring loaded to return to a center detent position. The wheel is used to manually apply vertical speed commands to FD/AP in steps of 50 ft. Moving pitch wheel from detent resets vertical mode to VS (except in GS ”CAP” and ALTS mode) and then slews vertical speed reference at rate proportional to the amount of wheel displacement.

As a general rule, the pilot flying the aircraft (1/P) shall operate the autopilot. The AP modes shall be monitored by use of the EADI. The light in the mode buttons in the MSP shall only be regarded as a reminder of depressed buttons. There are two FDs and either of them can be connected to the AP. Selection of L/R FD to the AP is performed by pressing the APXFR button on AP CONTROL PANEL AND ANNUNCIATED IN EADI by AP / AP (AP connected L resp R FD). NOTE When the autopilot is used below 1 500 ft., 1/P must keep one hand on the control wheel and have his feet on the rudder pedals, prepared to disengage the autopilot and take over manual control if necessary. 2.2 The FD V−shaped (magenta−colored) command bar shall normally be selected on both EADIs. However, the displayed command bars can be deselected by pressing the FD button on the DCP except in APPR mode. Between L/R FD there is a cross talk function active in all modes except APPR and HALF BANK. The cross talk function is used to synchronize a selected mode on one side to the other. After selection of APPR mode reactivation of the cross talk function is performed by selection of another lateral mode on both sides MSP or by pressing GA button on either power lever. FLIGHT DIRECTOR, GENERAL NOTE At manual flight using FD in VS or IAS mode. If selecting a different Vertical Speed or Airspeed than present and thereafter selecting AP XFR, split will occur between the Flight Directors. The (XFR) selected FD will capture the present VS or IAS, and the other FD remains with the selected VS or IAS. However, pressing VERT SYNC button on the failing side or engaging the AP will synchronize the Flight Directors. 2.3 FD COMMAND BARS ACTIVATION/ DEACTIVATION 1.

The indicator in button illuminates. ALTS mode is always armed by the APA as indicates on the EADI by a white ALTS under the active vertical mode. An automatic mode change will occur when actual flying altitude intercepts with the calculated capture point for the APA setting. Exception: ALTS is not armed in GS ”CAP”. GA mode can only be engaged by GA switches in power levers. NOTE Always confirm with the EADI mode annunciation that selected mode has been armed/engaged. A new mode can always be selected by pushing desired button on MSP. Exceptions: − A new vertical mode can not be selected in ALTS unless first selecting a new altitude on the APA. − A new vertical mode can not be selected in GS ”CAP” unless a new lateral mode or GA is selected. Operation of pitch wheel will give a mode change to VS except in GS ”CAP” and ALTS. HALF BANK MODE (Optional) The Half Bank mode is a submode to HDG and NAV. It reduces the bank limit from 27 to 13.5 in these modes. Mode is selected by pressing the 1/2 BANK button, and indicated on the MSP only. The mode is turned off by a second push on the button. (Push on/push off function). The mode has to be selected/deselected on both MSP to get half bank FD command on both EADI’s (no cross talk). 3.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 O 6 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS 2.6 VS MODE (Basic mode) AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES 1.

Select ALT mode, verify mode annunciation on EADI and re−engage autopilot. ALERTER FAILURE TO CAPTURE SET ALTITUDE When a mode data source fails to a flagged condition, the FD command bars will disappear from view, the red FD flag will appear. In such an event, the pilot is responsible for evaluating the situation and taking proper action such as disengaging the autopilot or changing flight director modes. Other failure modes can occur which will provide different cues such as aircraft attitude or flight path changes and it is always the pilots responsibility to monitor system operation against raw data and other sources. However, the following paragraphs (3.6 and 3.7) describe two important situations more in detail. 3.6 LOC/GS GROUND STATION INTERRUPTION When flying in APPR or NAV mode and LOC and/or GS capture. Loss of LOC and/or GS radio signals due to ground station interruption will cause the following on the EADI: − Flight Director command bar disappears replaced by FD red flag. − LOC and/or GS indication disappears replaced by LOC and/or GS red flag. − Captured LOC and/or GS annunciation remain in capture (green). − APPR or NAV mode remains selected. − The FD/AP will maintain short term dead reckoning (not announced on the EADI) until other modes are selected. ACTIONS − Perform GO−AROUND. 3.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 O 19 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.7 AUTOFLIGHT, CAT II Operation CONDITIONS ABNORMAL PROCEDURES ELECTRICAL POWER INTERRUPTION WHEN FLYING LOC/GS When flying in APPR and LOC and/or GS capture or in NAV mode and LOC capture.

GENERAL The audio integrating system provides the pilots with intercom and audio control. The VHF HF COM and HF COM (if installed) systems, as well as audio signals from the radio navigation systems, are together with the cockpit and ground crew interconnected with the audio integrating system. The audio integrating system will then provide the pilot with a corresponding number of audio channels, which can easily be selected and controlled by any of the two Audio Control Panels. The communication and the audio signals are listened to and spoken with by either headsets or cockpit loudspeakers and hand microphones. All communication is recorded by the CVR (Cockpit Voice Recorder). The Press To Transmit signals for the COM’s are recorded by the Flight data recorder. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Remote Electronic Unit (REU) The Remote Electronic Unit, REU, which forms the central part of the audio integrating system, serves as a distribution and switching center for the systems that are interconnected with the REU. For communication, two pilot jack panels provide connections of the headsets to the REU. There are also two loudspeakers and hand microphones connected to the REU for backup. The REU contains two identical circuit boards powered through their associated Audio Control Panel, ACP, by L and R BAT BUS. The circuit boards perform switching and amplification as selected on the ACP of cockpit intercom, HF and VHF COM audio and of audio idents for VOR, ILS, MARKER, DME and ADF. Aural warning, GPWS and PA chime signals have fixed audio levels and can be heard regardless of volume setting. If one or both circuit boards should fail, the VHF COM’s can be bypassed the REU and switched directly to the headsets by the NORM/EMER switch on associated ACP; VHF COM 1 to the L/P ACP and VHF COM 2 to the R/P ACP. COMMUNICATIONS, AUDIO INTEGRATING Description 2.2 Audio Control Panel (ACP) Two ACP’s are installed in the cockpit, one for each pilot. The ACP’s are furnished with slide levers for volume control and a number of pushbuttons and switches that allow various controls of the audio system. The selected volume levels and switch settings are converted into digital data and sent to the REU for control of the systems interconnected with the REU. 2.3 Loudspeakers Two loudspeakers are installed in the cockpit above each pilot’s head. The volume of the speakers are controlled by associated SPKR slide levers, L speaker L ACP and R speaker R ACP. Aural warning, GPWS, and PA chime signals have fixed audio levels and can be heard regardless of volume setting. 2.4 Pilot jack panel Two pilot jack panels provide connections of the headsets to the REU, two kinds of standard headset connectors are accepted; PJ−055B earphone and PJ−068 microphone or CANNON XLR type connectors. With Mod. No. 3144 installed, it is also possible to connect headsets with active noise reduction. For oxygen mask use, a separate jack connects the mask microphone to the REU by the BOOM/MASK switch on associated ACP; L mask L ACP and R mask R ACP. PA calls with the mask microphone can be made by pressing the PA button on the jack panel, also see AOM 4/4.1 and 4/4.2. 2.5 Observers jack panel The observers jack panel provides connection of the observers headset to the REU. The same type of connectors are accepted as for pilot jack panel. A MIC switch provides on/off function of the observers microphone. There is also a PHONE switch which allows the observer to listen to either the left or the right pilot’s communication. From a/c 180−up a microphone jack is provided for the observers oxygen mask microphone, see Fig. 6. The jack is in parallel with the observers jack panel 4/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual and does not require unplugging of the headset microphone. With Mod. No. 2600 installed, a hand microphone is provided for the observer. This hand microphone provides radio communication for the observer or instructor on the jump seat.

COMMUNICATIONS, HF COM Description There are also mode and squelch controls. GENERAL The HF 230 communication system provides a twoway voice link in the high frequency range 2.0 to 22.9999 MHz. A 100 Hz frequency spacing allows selection of any one of 280 000 distinct frequencies. The following communication modes can be selected: − USB = Upper side band (single side band trans−mission). − LSB = Lower side band. − AM = Amplitude modulated. − TEL SUP CAR and TEL PLT CAR= Telephone mode. Half duplex operation on 176 preprogrammed ITU radiotelephone channels. The system consists of a control unit in the cockpit, a transceiver and power amplifier in the avionics rack and an antenna with antenna coupler in the tail section. Audio control and PTT are managed through the Audio Integrating system, all communication is recorded by the CVR (Cockpit Voice Recorder) and PTT by the Flight data recorder via the FDAU (Flight Data Acquisition Unit). 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Control unit The principal part of the control unit is a microprocessor, the necessary controls and a frequency/ channel display. Selected by the FREQ/CHAN switch, the two control knobs provides frequency setting in 100 Hz spacing or setting of any of the 40 user preprogrammable and 176 preprogrammed ITU telephone channels. The clarifier permits the pitch of the received signal to be varied 100 Hz in all modes except AM. 2.2 Transceiver and Power amplifier The transceiver contains the frequency synthesizer and the channel program memory which will automatically be tuned to the selected frequency/channel. The transceiver also contains the receiver/exciter. The exciter is a transmitter which produces a low power signal (150 mW) which is applied to the Power amplifier during transmission, and amplified to a 100 watt peak signal for all modes except 25 watt average signal for AM operation. 2.3 Antenna coupler and Antenna Because the HF system operates over such a wild frequency range, it is not possible to match the actual length of the aircraft HF antenna to each of the HF frequencies. The Antenna coupler function is to change its electrical impedance and thereby tuning the antenna to each frequency and making the antenna appear to the transmitted signal as if it were the ideal physical length. During the tuning cycle which is started by a momentary PTT operation, the Antenna coupler requires from 5 to 15 seconds, during which a steady 1000 Hz tone will be heard. Within 1 second after completion of the tuning cycle, tone will cease, indicating that the HF is ready for transmitting. However, should the Antenna coupler fail to tune within 30 seconds the 1000 Hz tone will begin to ”beep”, indicating a fault has occurred. The fault can be cleared by rechannelling and initiating a new tuning cycle. 4/2.1 COLLINS HF − 230 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 O Aircraft Operations Manual COMMUNICATIONS, HF COM Description CONTROL UNIT MODE / SQUELCH / FREQ CLARIFIER / TEST COCPIT VOICE RECORDER TRANSCEIVER TUNING FAULT TUNING TRANSMIT / RECEIVE AUDIO INTEGRATING SYSTEM PTT FLIGHT DATA RECORDER POWER AMPLIFIER TUNING TRANSMIT / RECEIVE ANTENNA COUPLER ANTENNA A26866 Fig. 1 HF 230 system − schematic 4/2.1 COLLINS HF − 230 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 O Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

Knob functions when selecting a descrete frequency: Left outer − Selects the MHz digits (1 through 29 in the FREQ kHz display. Photocell. Controls display brightness. R − Receive. T − Transmit. Left inner (pushed in) − Selects the 100 kHz digit (0 through 9) in the FREQ kHz display. Left inner (pushed out) − Rotate to select between USB, AM and LSB modes. Right outer − Selects the 10 kHz digit (0 through 9) in the FREQ kHz display. Right inner (pushed in) − Selects the 1 kHz digit (0 through 9) in the FREQ kHz display. Right inner (pulled out) − Selects the 100 kHz digit (0 through 9) in the FREQ kHz display. Knob functions when selecting a user programmed channel: Left outer − Rotate until it brings up user channel number 1 or 40. If user channel 1 is being displayed, the next clockwise increment of the knob will cause user channel 10 to be displayed, then 20, 30 and 40. User chan− nels are designated by 1− or 2−digit chan− nels numbers appearing at the right side of the CHAN display (the upper two or three digits are blanked). Left inner (pushed in or pulled out) − No effect on user channels. Right outer − With user channel 1 displayed, clockwise rotation of this knob will increment through the 40 user channels one channel at a time. The next increment past user channel 40 will cause the lowest ITU chan− nel number (401) to be called up. With user channel 40 displayed, counterclock− wise rotation of the right outer knob will decrement through the 40 user channels, 1 channel at a time. The next decrement past user channel 1 will cause the highest. ITU channel number (2240) to be called up. Right inner (pushed in or pulled out) − No effcect on user channels.

There are three types of channels that can be programmed: − Half−duplex. The user programs two different frequencies, one for receive and one for transmit. The user also assigns one of the available operating modes (USB, LSB, AM, TEL SUP CAR or TEL PLT CAR) to the selected channel. Half duplex operation is used by the maritime radiotelephone network (public correspon− dence) stations. − Simplex. The user programs the same frequency for receive and for transmit. The user also assigns one of the available operating modes (USB, LSB, AM, TEL SUP CAR or TEL PLT CAR) to the selected channel. Simplex operation is used by ARNIC, ATC (Air Traffic Control) and others. − Recevie−only. The user programs a frequency for receive and asssigns one of the available operating modes (USB, LSB, AM, TEL SUP CAR or TEL PLT CAR) but does not program a transmit frequency. The transmitter and power amplifier are locked out and can not be used when a channel has been program− med for receive−only operation. Receive−only channels are used to listen to frequency standards (WWV for example) time, weather, Omega status, and geophysical alert broad− casts to name just a few. Knob functions when selecting an ITU telephone channel: Left outer − This knob is used to select the ITU band (the one or two left−hand digits in the CHAN display). Clockwise rotation of the knob increments the CHAN display to the next higher ITU band and counterclockwise rotation decrements to the next lower ITU band. If ITU channel 401 is being displayed, the next clockwise increment of the knob will cause ITU channel 601 to be displayed, then 801, 1201, 1601 and 2201. Rollover occurs between the top ITU band (22 MHz) and user programmed channel number 1 and between the lowest ITU band (4 MHz) and user programmed channel number 40. Left inner (pushed in) − No effect on ITU channels. Left inner (pulled out) − Rotate to select between TEL SUP CAR and TEL PLT CAR modes. Right outer − This knob selects the indicidual channel number within the ITU band (the two right− hand digits in the CHAN display). If the channel number is incremented beyond the highest channel for that band, the lowest channel for the next higher band will appear. For example, if ITU channel 426 is being displayed, the next clockwise incre− ment of the knob will cause ITU channel 601 to be displayed. Likewise, decrementing below the lowest channel in a band will select the highest channel in the next lower band. Right inner (pushed in or pulled out) − No effect on ITU channels.

The operator will find that there are times (depending on prevailing conditions) when it will be necessary to maintain satisfactory reception. This is because of conditions relating to propagation and the ionosphere that causes the HF receiver to have to operate with a signal that is subject to considerable fading and which is only marginally strong (unlike the conventional VHF which normally operates with a strong line−of−sight, nonfading signal). 4.

ANTENNA COUPLER DOES NOT TUNE INDICATIONS If the antenna coupler does not tune after approximately 35 to 40 seconds, the steady 1000 Hz tone will begin to beep, indicating a fault has occurred. ACTIONS 3.3 3.4 1. To clear the fault, simply rotate one of the frequency/channel select knobs away from and then back to the desired frequency or channel and initiate another turning cycle by momentarily pressing the microphone PTT button. The 1000 Hz tone should again be present and then disappear at the end of the turning cycle. If the beeping recurs, try the clearing procedure a second time; if a fault is still indicated, there is probably an equipment malfunction. 2. End of procedure.

MODIFICATION STANDARD DESCRIPTION/OPERATION 0.1 VHF COM frequency range COMMUNICATIONS, VHF COM Highlights Without mod. no. 2060 embodied: − The frequency range of the VHF COM is 118.000 to 135.975 MHz. 4/3.0 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual COMMUNICATIONS, VHF COM Highlights THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 4/3.0 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual 1. COMMUNICATIONS, VHF COM Description GENERAL There are two identical VHF communication systems independent of each other. The frequency range is 118.000 to 136.975 MHz selectable in 25 kHz steps. With Mod. No. 3499 the frequency range is 118.000 to 151.975 MHz selectable in 8.33 kHz steps. With Mod. No. 2938 the 25 kHz space has been modified with three frequencies, each with 8.33 kHz spacing. These frequencies are referred to as “channels”, since the displayed frequency is not the actual frequency tuned. For example, a frequency with 25 kHz spacing, as 118.000 MHz, can now be selected with 8.33 kHz spacing by, in this case, selecting 118.005 on the control unit. If 118.010 is selected the actual frequency tuned is 118.008 MHz. 118.017 MHz is tuned by selecting 118.015 etc. This method ensures that the equipment will always operate in the proper spacing mode. In practice this will not cause any confusion, since the pilot will be asked to tune a channel as if it was a frequency. The control unit is also modified with three decimal places to ensure proper frequency/channel selection. The control unit is also provided with a gas discharge type of display for two frequencies, one active and one standby. The display will indicate TX when the Press To Transmit (PTT) button is operated. A programmable Memory facility is also contained in the control unit. The memory provides six preprogrammed frequencies. To select a Memory frequency, simply step through the Memory by operating the XFR/MEM switch momentarily in MEM position. The control unit also has a squelch function which is active as long as the NORM/SQ OFF selector is in the NORM position. 2.2 Transceiver The transceiver produces an amplitude modulated signal of the selected frequency and this signal is directly fed to the antenna. In reception mode, the selected frequency is demodulated and the generated audio signal is transferred to the Audio Integrating System for distribution. The control units are located on the center pedestal. The COM 1 antenna is mounted on the top of the fuselage and the COM 2 antenna is mounted on the bottom of the fuselage. Antenna Audio Integrating System VHF COM Transceiver NOTE Digital Flight Data Recorder Due to fuel tank probe wiring, fuel quantity indication may momentarily change (less than 1% of full scale indication) when transmitting on COM 2.

COMMUNICATIONS, PA/INTERPHONE Description 2.2 GENERAL The Passenger Address (PA) and Interphone are two combined systems, utilizing the same amplifier unit (PA amplifier) located in the avionics rack. The PA system provides the passengers with cabin attendant call buttons which gives a HI chime tone in the cabin loudspeaker system for attention. The HI chime tone will also be heard as soon as ”NO SMOKING” or ”SEAT BELT” signs are operated on/off. For boarding music etc., an entertainment system can easily be connected to the PA system. The Interphone system provides communication via two interphones, between cockpit and cabin crew and also for giving messages to the passengers. There are also three lights PA, CALL and EMER, which together with HI−LOW chime tone, alerts the cockpit/cabin crews about any calls. Cockpit/cabin interphone The similar type of interphones is used in cockpit and cabin. The handset is provided with noise cancelling microphone. There are three buttonlights on top of the cradle, PA, CALL and EMER. The upper half of the buttonlight is lit to identify the function. The lower half of the buttonlight will come on to indicate the function in use. The amplifiers for the interphone system are located in the cradles. The cabin interphone is protected against inadvertent use, therefore the handset must be released before selecting a buttonlight. 2.3 Loudspeakers There are six loudspeakers in the cabin evenly distributed above the passenger seats and one in the lavatory area. The Interphone gives the following communications: − − − − Cockpit to passenger. Cockpit to cabin attendant. Cabin attendant to cockpit. Cabin attendant to passenger. The PA system has the following functions: − − − − Cabin attendant call buttons. NO SMOKING/ SEAT BELT signs. Loudspeakers for distribution of messages. Boarding music/entertainment systems. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 PA AMPLIFIER The PA amplifier basically consists of an amplifier circuit and a chime generator circuit. Audio signals from the cockpit and cabin interphones are amplified as well as HI and LOW chime tones created by the chime generator. HI chime is a 585 Hz tone and LOW chime is a 495 Hz tone. The PA amplifier also distributes the audio signals out to the cabin loudspeakers. The amplifier has two fixed audio levels, one low level and one increased level for engine/propeller noise compensation, controlled by engine oil pressure.

GENERAL ACARS is an abbreviation for ARINC communication and reporting system. The system is designed to reduce the requirement of voice communications by reporting automatically the arrival and departure times of the aircraft and other operational flight data. The system uses an assigned VHF airborne frequency to transmit and receive data from a ground station that is similarly equipped. The system provides current up−to−date information to the aircrew without increasing the workload of voice communication systems. The ACARS allows the aircrew to send information such as departure time, arrival time, fuel status, and flight delay information to the airline command center. In essence, the ACARS system provides an information service to the aircrew and the airline command while still maintaining a manageable workload for the aircrew. Other benefits of ACARS include ground monitoring of aircraft engines and other parameters, more efficient exchange of information concerning arrival and connecting flights, reduction of multiple frequency changes in the aircraft, and a more reliable aircraft selective calling system. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 ACARS system COMMUNICATIONS, ACARS Description 2.3 Control display panel The Control display panel provides the aircrew interface with ACARS. The touch sensitive display screen provides Keypads, Alphabetic and Numeric Keyboards to allow entering of the text portions of the departure/arrival reports, ETA reports, company messages etc. The display screen is covered with an infrared touch−matrix for data input. The touch is detected as a breach in the infrared matrix and is activated until the breach (finger, pen etc.) is no longer present. The infrared touch technology always permits operation even in direct sunlight and at all touch angles. The display supplies both bit mapped graphics and text with a text range from 14 lines with 24 columns, to 24 lines with 40 columns. 2.4 Printer The printer provides a hard copy printout of data, collected by the Management unit. Data that will be printed includes upbrushed printer messages and data entered into the Control display panel not queued for transmission. Upbrushed messages could include weather reports, dispatch information etc. The ACARS system consists of an airborne subsystem and a ground station network. The airborne ACARS consists of a Management unit, Control display panel, VHF com transceiver and a VHF antenna. The ground station network consists of a VHF com ground station controlled by a central processing computer, and a switching network connected to individual airline computer systems, see Fig. 2. 2.2 Management unit The Management unit contains the circuits required to control sampling of data from aircraft systems and sensors through the FDAU. The Management unit receives the ground−to−air digital messages from the VHF com transceiver and controls the transmission of air−to−ground messages through the VHF com transceiver, see Fig. 1. 4/5.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.5 COMMUNICATIONS, ACARS Description ACARS ground facilities The ACARS ground stations consist of an ARINC central computer, a switching network system and a VHF com radio station.

GENERAL The electrical power system is divided into four separate parts, namely: − A 28 V DC system, powered either from two engine driven generators, from two batteries or from an external power source, Fig. 1−Fig. 8. This system is split in a left and a right system, each with one generator and one battery. − An emergency power system, powered from the ordinary DC system or from an emergency power battery, Fig. 1−Fig. 8. − A frequency controlled 115/26 V AC 400 Hz system, powered from the DC system through a main or a standby (26V AC only) inverter, Fig. 1−Fig. 8. − A “wild” frequency AC system, powered from two engine−driven generators and used for ice protection only, Fig. 10. Distribution of DC power is effected through a left and right power distribution unit to the respective GEN BUS, MAIN BUS, BAT BUS, AVIONIC BUS, ESS BUS, MAIN START BUS and AVIONIC START BUS. In addition, the ESS AVIONIC BUS, EMERGENCY BUS and EMER AVION BUS are connected to the left power system while a UTILITY BUS is connected to the right power system. There is also a HOT BAT BUS connected to each battery. The left and right power systems are tied together by a bus tie relay thereby enabling a single battery or generator to supply both power systems. The emergency power system consists of the previously mentioned EMERGENCY BUS and EMER AVION BUS. These buses are, in addition to the normal power supply, supplied from an emergency battery for a limited time as a last power resource. The AC system consists of a L and R INV BUS 115V AC plus a L and R INV BUS 26 V AC. The AC buses are normally powered through the main inverter from the L MAIN BUS. The L and R INV BUS 26V AC may also be powered through the standby inverter from the R MAIN BUS. “Wild” frequency AC, used for ice protection only, is supplied from two generators, driven by the respective propeller gearbox, to the L and R GEN BUS 115V AC. Either AC generator can supply both ELECTRICAL Description buses through the use of a load transfer relay. Each engine air intake anti−icing is supplied from respective AC generator. Control and monitoring of the electrical system is performed from the overhead panel. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 DC Starter Generator Normal power supply is from the two 400 ampere, combined starter/generators located one on each engine accessory gearbox. They deliver 28 V DC to the respective: − GEN BUS and BAT BUS via the generator relay. − MAIN BUS via the generator and main bus relays. At engine start, a speed switch in the starter/generator senses the RPM for the GCU which controls the disengagement of the start cycle. The generator drive shaft has a shear point which will separate the generator drive shaft from the accessory drive gear in case of high mechanical overloading. On the ground the starter/generator is cooled by an integral fan and when airborne ram air is used for cooling. A thermoswitch will cause a GEN OV TEMP light in the overhead panel to come on if a generator is overheated (150C). The operation of the starter/generator is controlled by the respective generator control unit (GCU). 2.2 DC Generator Control Unit (GCU) Two separate but identical GCU’s are provided for the two generators. A GCU furnishes its associated generator with field excitation and voltage regulation for control and protection of the DC system against faults in the generation system. The GCU also controls the engine start cycle and disengages the start/generator at 55% Ng. If a generator parameter is not correct, the GCU de−energizes the generator by opening the field relay, and disconnects the generator from the GEN BUS by opening the generator relay. 5.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 1 Aircraft Operations Manual In case of fire handle is pulled, the corresponding generator is de−energized by its GCU and disconnected from the GEN BUS. After any fault causing a GCU to isolate the affected generator, the field relay can be reset by cycling the respective GEN switch in RESET position. NOTE Applicable without mod 2533 installed. The GCU can not detect DC generator voltage low (generator not charging) and subsequently not disconnect a non−charging generator. Also see Abnormal Procedures DC voltage low. NOTE Applicable with mod 2533 installed. The GCU will detect DC generator voltage low situation and subsequently disconnect a non− charging generator. 2.3 External power An external power receptacle on the right hand aft fuselage wing fairing, allows the aircraft to be supplied on ground with 28 V DC power from a ground power unit. A status light on the overhead panel indicates when external power is available. 2.4 Batteries There are two 24 V/43 ampere−hours nickel−cadmium batteries which are installed in the left and right wing fairings. With battery power only, each battery supplies power to its respective HOT BAT BUS and BAT BUS via GEN BUS. A number of other buses are then powered from the BAT BUS, see Fig. 2. When using the batteries for engine start, they will be connected in series with the Series/Parallel relay and thereby supplying 48 V DC to the starter/generator. Two thermal switches are installed on each battery to provide overheat protection. The first thermal switch closes at 57C so that a NO BAT START light on the overhead panel comes on, indicating that the batteries should not be used for engine starting. A second thermal switch closes at a tem- ELECTRICAL Description perature of 71C, thereby disconnecting the battery from its GEN BUS and the START BUS, indicated by a BAT HOT light on the overhead panel. In an emergency situation the 71C thermal switch can be overridden by setting the battery switch to OVRD position to assure battery supply to the GEN BUS. One thermal sensor is located on each battery to measure the battery temperature, which is shown on the temperature indicator on the overhead panel. The indicator is shared with the fuel temperature indication by means of a selector switch. To improve ventilation on ground, a fan is installed in each battery compartment. The fan is controlled by the nose landing gear locked down switch when airborne ram air is used for ventilation. 2.5 Power Distribution Unit (PDU) A left and a right power distribution unit controls all primary switching of the different power sources which might be connected to the aircraft buses. The following relays are installed in the distribution units: L/R Generator Relay (GR) When the generator relay is closed, the starter/generator powers the GEN BUS. The following conditions must be met for the generator relay to close: − External power relay open. − Engine start completed. − Generator field current reset. External Power Overvoltage Relay (right PDU) An overvoltage protection relay will open the external power relay or not allow it to close if external power voltage should exceed 31 volt. External Power Relay (EPR) (right PDU) When the external power relay is closed, the external power unit powers the DC buses via the START BUS. The L GEN BUS is powered via the de−energized series/parallel relay and the R GEN BUS via the closed bus tie relay. The following condition must be met for the external power relay to close: − EXT PWR switch on overhead panel in ON position. 5.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 2 Aircraft Operations Manual ELECTRICAL Description − External power available. − External power overvoltage relay not energized. The batteries will be charged from respective GEN BUS when at least one generator is on line. The EXT PWR switch is provided with an electromagnetic hold function which will hold the switch lever in ON position when external power is switched ON. The EXT PWR switch will also automatically be de−energized and retarded to OFF position if the external power voltage drops below approximately 10 V. The EXT PWR relay de−energizes and the batteries will be connected if the BAT−switches are ON. L/R Start Relay Applicable to a/c without Mod. 2617 During the first part of the engine start sequence while the start switch is held in start position, the EXT PWR switch will retard to OFF if the external power voltage should drop below approximately 7V. The start sequence will continue on batteries. During the remaining part of the start sequence when the start switch is released, the drop out voltage is approximately 10 V. If now dropping below that value the start sequence will be interrupted. Applicable to a/c with Mod. 2617 If EXT PWR should drop off line while the Start Switch is being held in the START position or anytime during a start−up, there will be loss of electrical power. The only busses that will be powered are LH and RH Hot Battery Busses and Emergency Battery Bus until the Start Switch is released (during motoring or motoring start) or the Condition Lever is moved to Fuel Off (during a start−up). L/R Battery Relay When the battery relays are closed, the left battery is connected to the START BUS and the right battery is connected to the R GEN BUS. The following conditions must be met for a battery relay to close: − L/R BAT switch on overhead panel in ON position. − EXT PWR switch off. − Battery temperature below 71C or − Battery switch in OVRD positions (for emergency use only). When the start relay is closed, the starter/generator receives power from the START BUS. During a battery start, the start relay is controlled by the series/parallel relay connecting the two batteries in series. The start relay closes when the start switch is in ON position. The relay has a hold function and will remain closed when the start switch is released. The relay will open at 55% Ng controlled by the GCU. Series/Parallel Relay When the series/parallel relay is in de−energized position, the START BUS is connected to the L GEN BUS. When energized, the L GEN BUS is separated from the START BUS. This relay is slaved to the battery bus relay and is energized during a battery engine start which will connect the batteries in series giving 48 V for start. L HOT BAT BUS Relay When the HOT BAT BUS relay is de−energized, it connects the left battery to the L HOT BAT BUS. This relay is energized during engine battery start, and connects the L HOT BAT BUS to the R GEN BUS (right battery). Bus Tie Relay (left PDU) When the bus tie relay is closed, it connects the two generator buses. This is done for three reasons: − To supply both L and R GEN BUS when external power is on. − To enable power supply to both L and R GEN BUS from only one generator., − To connect the two main batteries. The bus tie relay function is controlled by a BUS TIE switch and monitored by a BUS TIE CONN light, both located on the overhead panel. The bus tie relay is closed when the BUS TIE switch is in CONN position or in AUTO position with one or both generators failed or with only batteries ON. It is open if the BUS TIE switch is in SPLIT 5.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 3 Aircraft Operations Manual position or in AUTO position with both generators on line. L/R MAIN START BUS relay When a MAIN START BUS relay is closed, it connects the MAIN START BUS to its BAT BUS. To close a MAIN START BUS relay, the respective generator relay or the external power relay must be closed. L/R MAIN BUS relay When a MAIN BUS relay is closed, it connects the MAIN BUS to the GEN BUS. To close a MAIN BUS relay the following conditions must be met: − The corresponding BAT BUS powered. − The corresponding MAIN START BUS relay closed. − No engine starting in progress. Overcurrent relay To protect the main distribution system in case of a short circuit, there is a bus tie overcurrent relay installed. Should the current over the relay exceed 800 ampere the overcurrent relay trips, causing the bus tie relay to open. Manual reset of the overcurrent relay can be done by the RESET BUS TIE pushbutton (K−1) on the forward part of left pilot’s circuit breaker panel. Automatic override of the bus tie overcurrent protection is performed during an engine start. 2.6 DC Buses ELECTRICAL Description RCCB will close and supply power to the UTILITY BUS provided both generators are on line or external power is switched on. The respective BAT BUS supplies the L/R MAIN START BUS via its main start bus relay and L/R ESS BUS via its ESS BUS relay. The ESS BUS relays are open during engine start. The L/R MAIN START BUS supplies its respective AVIONIC START BUS when the L/R AVION switch is ON. When the ESS AVION switch is ON the ESS AVIONIC BUS is supplied from the L ESS BUS and the EMER AVIONIC BUS from the EMERGENCY BUS. 2.7 Emergency power supply Emergency power is supplied by the emergency power supply unit which contains the emergency battery and a battery heater. The battery is a 24 V/5 ampere−hours lead−acid battery. The battery heater will be activated automatically in cold temperatures. The heater warms up the battery for best battery efficiency. When the L BAT BUS is powered from generator or external power, the emergency battery is charged from this bus. The emergency battery begins to supply power to the EMERGENCY BUS when the L BAT BUS voltage goes below 24 V. If the emergency battery voltage drops below 24 V, the EMER PWR light on the overhead panel comes on. This light also comes on if the EMERGENCY BUS is not powered, provide the warning electronic unit (WEU) is powered. Remote Controlled Circuit Breakers (RCCB) are used to switch high current and are controlled either by a switch or by an electric bus via a small current CB. The RCCB will open for an overcurrent. The respective GEN BUS supplies power to its respective BAT BUS and to respective MAIN BUS via the MAIN BUS relay. The respective MAIN BUS supplies its AVIONIC BUS visa a RCCB. The RCCB will close when respective AVIONIC switch is set to ON provided the respective MAIN BUS is powered. 2.8 DC/AC inverter system The R MAIN BUS also supplies the UTILITY BUS via a RCCB. If the R MAIN BUS is powered the If the DC supply from the L MAIN BUS to the main inverter is interrupted, or the main inverter fails, the Applicable with a main and a standby inverter installed There are two 400 Hz inverters, one main inverter and one standby inverter. With the MAIN INV 115V 26V switch in ON and the 26V inverter switch in MAIN INV, the main inverter supplies power to: − L and R INV BUS 115V AC − L and R INV BUS 26V AC 5.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 4 Aircraft Operations Manual MAIN INV light on the overhead panel comes on. In this case, the standby inverter can be selected by placing the 26V inverter switch to STBY INV. The standby inverter will then supply the L and R INV BUS 26V AC from the R MAIN BUS. The L and R INV BUS 115V AC will however remain powerless. Applicable with two main inverters installed The a/c is provided with two main inverters 115 V/26 V 400 Hz. By selecting INVERTER 1 or 2, anyone of the two inverters will supply power to: − L and R INV BUS 115 V AC; − L and R INV BUS 26 V AC. If the DC supply to the selected operation inverter is interrupted or if the inverter fails, the INVERTER light on the overhead panel comes on. In this case select the other inverter. With Mod No 2544 installed (power supply changed for ACARS COM3 and the inverters). The power supply for the inverters are changed from L and R MAIN BUS to L and R BAT BUS. The selected inverter might trip during engine battery start due to battery voltage drop and must be reset after engine start if tripped. 2.9 ELECTRICAL Description variable between 460 to 600 Hz due to variations in propeller rpm. There is one AC generator installed on each propeller gearbox and it is cooled by ram air during flight and by an integral fan on the ground. The generator drive shaft has a shear point which will separate the generator drive shaft from the accessory drive gear in case of high mechanical overloading. Each generator is connected to the respective L/R AC GEN BUS through an AC generator relay and controlled by a control unit. The control unit regulates the voltage to 115V and also provides fault protection. Either of the two generator relays automatically ties the two generator busses together when one generator is inoperative, or manually by means of the L/R AC GEN switches on the overhead panel. If a generator fails or disconnects from the L/R AC GEN BUS due to too low propeller rpm, it’s AC GEN light on the overhead panel comes on. The generator automatically resets when the propeller rpm increases again and the AC GEN light goes out. Wild frequency AC system (Fig. 10) The wild frequency 115V AC system is for ice protection only. ”Wild” is because the frequency is 5.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 5 Fig. 1 L MAIN BUS Starter/generator field control and fault detection Start relay control Gen relay control Left generator control unit (GCU) L AVION BUS relay (RCCB) L AVIONIC BUS L battery L start relay L BAT BUS ESS BUS relay L ESS BUS L HOT BAT BUS L HOT BAT BUS relay − ALL switches OFF.

EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Oxygen GENERAL The aircraft is equipped with one fixed oxygen system, plus portable oxygen bottles. The fixed system supplies oxygen via three cockpit outlets to the two pilots and observer, and via cabin outlets to the passengers. Number of cabin outlets varies with national regulations and operators specification. They are primarily intended for giving supplemental oxygen after a decompression. The portable system is intended for the flight attendant, for crew walk−around purposes and for dispensing first aid oxygen. 2. FIXED OXYGEN SYSTEM Oxygen bottle(s), located under the cockpit floor, provides the system with high pressure oxygen (approx. 1,850 psi). The oxygen flows through a manually operated shut−off valve to a pressure regulator which reduces pressure to 70 psi before it is distributed to outlets. Each outlet gives approx. 2 l oxygen per minute. (Number of bottles varies with national regulations and operators specifications). The oxygen bottle(s), which is made of metal with an over−wrapping of Kevlar fiber sealed in epoxy, has a relief plug connected to an overboard discharge line. The discharge line port is covered by a green blow−out disk and is located on the right side of the fuselage nose section. Absence of the disk indicates that the bottle has been discharged. The bottle(s) has a capacity of 1390 l and nominal charging pressure is 1,850 psi. The ground servicing panel is located adjacent to the disk. Oxygen bottle OXYGEN A11114 Blow−out disk Fig. 1 Fixed oxygen system − oxygen bottle location 6/2.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Oxygen A B The shut−off valve incorporated in the regulator assembly is controlled from the cockpit by a push− pull handle, located on the forward right side panel, adjacent to the oxygen pressure gauge. The handle has a green mark at the base, indicating open position. Oxygen to the passenger cabin is controlled by a passenger oxygen valve lever, located outboard of the right pilot’s seat.

Flight crew masks (quick donning masks) are normally connected to their outlets so that they can be put into immediate use. If a mask is disconnected from its outlet, a check valve in the outlet prevents line pressure from leaking. When not in use, these masks hang from overhead quick−release holders behind the respective pilot to be conveniently at hand for immediate donning. Observer mask Type and how to store it during flight varies with national regulations. All masks except the first aid mask, can be plugged into the cockpit outlets. Flight crew and observer masks can be used with the large (310 l) portable oxygen bottle if desired. However, they can not be used with the small (120 l) bottle, which will only accept the first aid mask. A11171 Fig. 5 The quick−donning masks are diluter/demand type with mask mounted regulator and microphone. Each mask is supplied with a red flow indicator which disappears when oxygen is flowing. The mask mounted diluter/demand regulator provides oxygen dilution and delivery pressure control. The oxygen selector on the regulator enables the mask to be supplied either with oxygen mixed with ambient air (”NORMAL”) , or with 100% oxygen on demand. When the emergency selector is turned to ON, the mask is supplied with 100% continuous flow oxygen. This should be used for protective breathing purposes (smoke in the cockpit etc.). Smoke goggle (push−pull) vent valve is used in conjunction with 100% continuous flow oxygen (emergency selector ON) to divert a small flow of oxygen from the mask cavity into the smoke goggle cavity to vent smoke or noxious fumes which may be present. To ventilate: − Turn emergency selector to ON − Pull out the Vent Valve knob. Flight crew oxygen mask 6/2.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 5 Aircraft Operations Manual EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Oxygen Flight Attendant Oxygen The flight attendant can be supplied with oxygen either by the large walk−around bottle (310 l) or by plugging the oxygen mask (full face smoke mask) into one of the fixed passenger outlets, or into the observer’s outlet if not occupied. First choice should normally be the 310 l portable bottle, as this gives greater freedom of movement. The cabin has passenger oxygen outlets, located on the overhead passenger service units (P.S.U), and connected to the fixed system. Number of outlets varies with national regulations. Passenger oxygen masks with plug−in connectors and flow indicators are normally stowed in the galley area. The most common type of mask has a flow indicator. It is a small green compartment built into the oxygen accumulator bag which inflates immediately upon a flow of oxygen, and is highly visible to the user. Masks are continuous flow type. No shut−off valves are provided. A11172 Fig. 6 Passenger oxygen outlets / Passenger oxygen mask 6/2.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 6 Aircraft Operations Manual 4. EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Oxygen PORTABLE OXYGEN The aircraft is provided with portable oxygen bottles. There are two sizes: large (310 L) and small (120 L). Number and locations vary with national regulations. Description The large (310 L) bottle is intended for crew walk− around and is the F/A primary choice of oxygen supply. It has two 2 L/min. outlets (with option 231−1 installed, only one outlet), suitable for both flight crew and the full−face mask. Some bottles may also be fitted with outlets which can be used with the passenger masks. Minimum duration with 1,800 psi initial pressure: − One outlet in use . . . . . 80 min. − Two outlets in use . . . . 50 min. With the full face smoke mask in use, duration is reduced to 10−20 min., depending on inhalation rate. The small (120 L) bottle is intended for giving first aid and supplemental oxygen. It has its own oxygen mask. This bottle has two constant flow outlets (2 and 4 L/min). The 4 L/min (HI) outlet is used for first aid, and the 2 L/min (LO) outlet for supplemental oxygen, e.g. after a decompression. Minimum duration with 1,800 psi initial pressure: − HI . . . . . . . 20 min. − LO . . . . . . 30 min. Minimum pressure for all portable bottles before take−off is 1,500 psi, NOTE The oxygen mask attached to the small (120 L) bottle can not be connected to any other outlet in the aircraft.

General instructions Depressing or turning the emergency selector to ”EMER” will create a continuous flow, for mask ventilation. The mask, when stowed, is unconnected. It can be connected to the large (310 L) bottle or to any available fixed−system outlet. − NO SMOKING sign ON − check bottle pressure − secure the bottle either by hanging it over your shoulder or on the passengers seat−back. − connect mask − turn valve fully open − check flow − put mask on (passengers oxygen mask; secure with elastic cord and metal strip). NOTE NOTE The mask can not be connected to the small (120 L) bottle. Minimum pressure for use: 50 psi. SUMMARY 1. The fixed system has outlets in cockpit and in cabin. Any mask except the ”first−aid” mask can be plugged into any of these outlets. 2. There are two different portable bottles; one large for the flight attendant and crew walk− around and one small for first−aid oxygen. 3. Flight attendant should primarily use the large (310 L) portable bottle. 4. Small portable bottle has special fittings which will only accept the attached ”first−aid” mask. 5. Flight crew oxygen masks should always be connected. Observer mask usage varies with national regulations. WHEN OXYGEN IS DISPENSED, ENSURE THAT THERE IS NO SMOKING IN THE VICINITY! A11174 Fig. 8 Full face mask 6/2.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 8 Aircraft Operations Manual 5. FIXED OXYGEN SYSTEM DISPATCH PRESSURE Oxygen dispatch pressure varies with the number of oxygen masks (passenger and crew), number of fixed bottles, oxygen temperature, descent profile and national operating regulations. To simplify the presentation 3 different system configurations are covered in this section, additionally oxygen consumption per individual crew and passenger mask are given for the individual operator to develop his unique dispatch pressure. It is important to understand that the oxygen pressures presented are based on the Crew Oxygen mask selector in NORMAL position (supplemental oxygen supply). Keeping the selector in 100% position (Smoke Protection supply) will result in a much faster depletion of oxygen. Oxygen for smoke protection is, according to the regulations, required to be available for 15 min. to the cockpit crew. With 3 cockpit masks and descent profiles to below either FAR Part 121 or 135 profile this requirement is met with 800 psi indicated oxygen pressure. This requirement is always covered in the following presentation and needs not to be considered. Oxygen masks EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Oxygen Oxygen temperature OXYGEN SUPPLY DURATION charts are presented for −20 C (−4 F), 0 C (32 F), +20 C (+70 F) and +40 C (+105 F) oxygen temperature and the MINIMUM DISPATCH PRESSURE tables are presented for −50 C (−60 F) to +50 C (+120 F) oxygen temperature in steps of 10 C. The oxygen consumption given per individual crew and passenger mask is based on a oxygen temperature of +20 C (+70 F). It is however expected that the oxygen temperature will remain below about +20 C (+70 F) during normal ground and flight operations. If the aircraft is hot−soaked on the ground for an extended period (longer than normal turnarounds), the oxygen temperature might exceed +20 C (+70 F). Descent profiles Two different descent profiles have been used in the calculations, one is made up to meet FAR Part 121 regulations while the other is made up to meet FAR Part 135 regulations. Both meet their respective minimum requirements. If unable to descent to or below the descent profiles, because of terrain restrictions special calculations have to be performed. Operating regulations Crew: Data are given for 2 and 3 masks. Passengers: Data are given for 3 different configurations: Crew: Some operating regulations require a 2 hour−oxygen supply to each cockpit crew regardless of flying time while other regulations require less oxygen supply. The OXYGEN SUPPLY DURATION charts are made for those operators who can make a trade off in oxygen pressure based on actual flying time. The MINIMUM DISPATCH PRESSURE tables are made for those operators who are required to carry a 2 hour oxygen supply regardless of flying time and therefore only can make a trade off in oxygen pressure based on number of passenger on− board. Passenger: The supply duration given is always for a 30 minute−supply to each passenger mask. − Configuration denoted FAR 121 operation includes 4 passenger oxygen masks. − Configuration denoted FAR 135 operation includes 30 passenger oxygen masks. − Configuration denoted 34 oxygen masks includes accordingly 34 passenger oxygen masks. Oxygen bottles Two different system configurations are covered, the basic 1 and the optional 3 fixed bottles installation. 6/2.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 9 Aircraft Operations Manual 5.1 EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Oxygen FAR 121 DESCENT PROFILE ALTITUDE 1000 FEET 25 1 bottle / 4 outlets 14 10 30 MIN.

The figure for the 1 fixed bottle installation is based on the FAR 121 descent profile or descent to lower altitudes while the 3 fixed bottle installation is based on the FAR 135 descent profile or descent to lower altitudes. When compiling the dispatch pressure it is important to notice that the last 300 psi of indicated oxygen pressure must be treated as unusable since the oxygen regulation function starts to be unreliable at that pressure. − Oxygen consumption with the 3 fixed bottles installation; SMOKE PROTECTION (Regulator in 100% position) −80 psi / crew mask / 15 min SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN (Regulator in NORMAL position) −135 psi / crew mask / 2 hrs −27 psi/ passenger mask / 30 min UNUSABLE OXYGEN −300 psi − Oxygen consumption with the 1 fixed bottle installation; SMOKE PROTECTION (Regulator in 100% position) −236 psi / crew mask / 15 min SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN (Regulator in NORMAL position) −385 psi / crew mask / 2 hrs −80 psi/ passenger mask / 30 min UNUSABLE OXYGEN −300 psi 6/2.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 16 Aircraft Operations Manual 1. GENERAL The emergency lighting system provides necessary interior and exterior lighting for a minimum of ten minutes. The lights are powered by rechargeable battery packs, located under the cabin floor. 1.1 − − − − Interior emergency lights cove mounted lights (10) emergency exit signs (4) emergency exit locator signs (2) floor proximity escape path lights (8) or (20) 1.2 Exterior emergency lights − escape path lights (2) − escape path lights in the frames of main door and forward right exit. (2) − escape path lights, integrated with forward right and L/R overwing emergency exit signs (3). 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS The emergency lighting system is divided into five subsystems, each feeding the bulbs in a concentrated part of the cabin from its battery pack, thereby maximizing systems survivability. EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Emergency Lighting F/A−button is not pushed to ON or cockpit switch is not in ON position. − Manually, by selecting the cockpit switch to OFF position, provided any Battery switch is in ON position and the F/A−button is not pushed to ON position. NOTE If the lights come on manually or automatically they can not be selected off; − if CB S7 (R ESS, R MAIN) is tripped or − if R ESS BUS power is lost. The F/A−button will illuminate to show ARMED or ON depending on system status. CAUTION Crew members should receive adequate training in the handling of the emergency lighting system. Cockpit EMERG LIGHT switch should be OFF during engine start, be set to ARMED after engine start, and be set to OFF prior to engine shut−down. (The emergency lights can be turned off only when R ESS BUS is powered.) The battery packs are kept at full charge via the R ESS BUS. The emergency lights are manually controlled by a cockpit (OFF−ARMED−ON) EMER LIGHT switch and an EMERGENCY LIGHTS button on the F/A service panel (F/A−button). The emergency lights will come on; − Manually, by selecting cockpit switch to ON or pushing F/A button to ON, provided any Battery Switch is in ON position or R ESS BUS is powered. The F/A−button will activate the system also when the cockpit switch is in OFF position. − Automatically, if electrical power is lost on R MAIN START BUS (R MAIN BUS for A/C up to s/n 358), provided the system is armed, which is achieved with the cockpit switch in ARMED position. The emergency lights will go out; − Automatically, if activated automatically, provided electrical power is restored on R MAIN BUS and 6/3.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 3. EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Emergency Lighting FLASH LIGHTS Three flash lights are provided with the aircraft as standard. Two are located in the cockpit, outboard of each pilot’s seat, and one in the cabin entrance area close to the F/A seat.

EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Fire fighting equipment 2.2 GENERAL Fire−fighting equipment comprises hand fire extinguishers and a fire axe. NOTE The fixed fire protection system for the engines, the cargo compartment and the lavatory, is covered in chapter 7, ”Fire Protection”. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Hand fire extinguishers Number, type and locations vary with national regulations. Halon fire extinguisher The Halon fire extinguishers contain Halon 1211 which can be used against all types of fires. Halon 1211 is a liquid chemical which, when expelled from the nozzle, contains approx. 85% liquid and 15% gas. The liquid, when hitting the fire, forms a cloud. The extinguishing effect is obtained through a chemical reaction in the flames. The extinguishant leaves no residue and is considered non−toxic; however, there may be a slight ”narcotic” effect. Halon fire extinguisher operation: − Hold extinguisher upright. − Release safety catch. − At a distance of 1−2 m (3−7 feet), aim at base of flames and depress trigger fully. Only the fully developed cloud of extinguishant is most effective, not the stream immediately ejected from the nozzle outlet. If the cloud does not develop around base of flames, move further back. When extinguishing liquid fires, never aim full stream into liquid. When fighting fires in solid combustibles, apply extinguishant shot−wise. A11175 Fig. 1 Halon fire extinguisher 6/4.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.3 EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Fire fighting equipment H20 fire extinguisher 2.5 Water is used against fires in textiles, paper etc. It must not be used against burning liquids and when electricity is involved. The extinguisher contains 1,35 l of water, and has a range of up to 6 m. An anti−freeze is added to prevent freezing down to approximately − 20 C. Emptying takes 35 sec. (continuous use). 2.4 H20 fire extinguisher operation − Turn handle fully clockwise (this will puncture the C02 cartridge in the handle). − Depress trigger. − Aim at fire. − Hold the extinguisher upright. − It is possible to form water spray by holding a finger on the nozzle. Avionic rack inlet The avionics rack is provided with a red rubber inlet for fire−fighting, located on the wall behind the left pilot. This inlet may be used to fight an avionics fire, should other (isolation) procedures fail to cure the problem. 2.6 Fire axe The fire axe is located in the cockpit on the wall behind the left pilot’s seat. It is intended for use in emergencies, e.g. breaking and cutting inside the aircraft. The axe handle is electrically isolated.

EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT PBE / Smoke Goggles PBE (Protective Breathing Equipment) Requirements are subject to national regulations. Where required, there will be one PBE close to each hand fire extinguisher installed. Type and operational procedures vary. For full description contact your Flight Operations department. 1.1 SMOKE GOGGLES There are two smoke goggles in the cockpit located behind each pilot’s seat, adjacent to the oxygen mask. A third set of goggles may be provided for the observer. It is then installed above the observer’s seat. 1.2 Operation − Don flight crew mask. − Don smoke goggles; ensure a tight fit to the oxygen mask. − Tighten the straps. − Ventilate by turning emergency selector to ON and pulling the vent valve knob. 6/5.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT PBE / Smoke Goggles THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 6/5.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual 1. EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Flotation equipment GENERAL − All flotation equipment must be readily available to all persons on board. − Number, type and locations vary with national regulations. − The crew should have their own life vests, located adjacent to each crew station. − Passengers are provided with life vests or specially designed seat cushions. 1.1 Life vest operation − put the vest over the head − tighten the straps around you − pull the red inflation tabs (after leaving through the exit) − use mouthpieces if the inflation doesn’t work − activate the light if needed (pull battery plugs) 1.2 Seat cushion operation − pull the seat cushion from the seat − embrace it and put your hands through the red straps The cushions are attached to the seat with Velcro tape and can easily be pulled off.

EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Emergency Locator Transmitter 3.3 GENERAL The Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) facilitates search and rescue in case of a crash landing. It activates automatically on impact, transmitting on civil as well as military aeronautical distress frequencies (121.5 and 243 MHz). It is located aft of the cargo compartment, and is removable from the aircraft. 2. The ELT operates independent of the aircraft batteries. It is waterproof, crash resistant, and will normally be operative after a crash landing. At a 5−7 G nominal impact, the ELT automatically activates, transmitting an emergency signal containing 2−4 downsweep (1,600 − 300 Hz) signals per second. The self−contained battery has a minimum capacity of 52 hours of transmission. There are two antennas: a permanent external on the tail cone and a blade antenna for portable ELT use. The ELT is controlled by an internal impact switch and an ELT switch on the transmitter front panel. Remote control of the ELT is possible by way of a two−position (ON−ARMED) switch on the cockpit overhead EMERGENCY panel. 3. OPERATION 3.1 Automatic activation For normal operation, the ELT switch in cockpit shall be guarded in ARMED position. The ELT will then activate automatically on impact. 3.2 Should the ELT be inadvertently activated, gain access to the transmitter, set its front panel ON−OFF− ARM switch to OFF, depress the RESET pushbutton and set the ON−OFF−ARM switch to ARM. To prevent unnecessary search−and rescue actions, inform ATC immediately. Also, make an entry in the aircraft log book. 3.4 DESCRIPTION Manual activation Deactivation Portable operation It is not normal procedure to bring the ELT along in an evacuation. Should, however, circumstances warrant the effort of removing the ELT, the portable operation is the following: − Gain access to the ELT through the access panel aft of the cargo compartment. − Set the ELT switch to OFF. − Disconnect the antenna cable and tear loose the two cables to the remote selector circuit. − Remove the ELT from its mounting bracket. − Extend the blade antenna fully by pulling the plastic end of the antenna. The ELT is now ready for portable use and will transmit whenever the ELT switch is in the ON position. For maximum radio range, the ELT should be located as high as possible above the surrounding terrain, e.g. on a hill top or in a tree. The antenna should be oriented vertically. At low temperatures, keep the transmitter inside your jacket with the antenna outside. IMPORTANT: To prevent unnecessary search−and rescue actions, inform ATC immediately if the ELT has been switched on inadvertently. The ELT can be purposely activated by setting the ELT switch in cockpit to ON. 6/7.1 A/C 160 −170 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 S1 Aircraft Operations Manual EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Emergency Locator Transmitter A A EMERGENCY PANEL ELT switch.

To prevent unnecessary search−and rescue actions, inform ATC immediately. Also, make an entry in the aircraft log book. − Portable operation It is not normal procedure to bring the ELT along in an evacuation. Should, however, circumstances warrant the effort of removing the ELT, the portable operation is the following: − Gain access to the ELT through the access panel aft of the cargo compartment. − Set the ELT switch to OFF. If not the ELT will start transmitting when removed from its mounting bracket. − Remove the ELT from its mounting bracket. − Disconnect the antenna cable and the connector from the remote selector circuit. − Connect the flexible antenna to the ELT. The ELT is now ready for portable use and will transmit (after 30 sec.) whenever the ELT switch is in the ON position. Upon activation there is a time delay of 30 seconds before the ELT starts to transmit. Activation is indicated by a flashing red indicator on the ELT and on the EMERGENCY panel. For maximum radio range, the ELT should be located as high as possible above the surrounding terrain, e.g. on a hill top or in a tree. The antenna should be oriented vertically. 3.1 At low temperatures, keep the transmitter inside your jacket with the antenna outside. Automatic activation For normal operation, the ELT switch in cockpit shall be positioned in ARMED position. The ELT will then activate automatically on impact.

EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Exits 2. GENERAL WARNING NOTE All crew members should receive adequate training in the handling of emergency exits and evacuation procedures. The aircraft is provided with five emergency exits; − − − − Main door (1) Forward right exit (1) Overwing exits (2) Cockpit escape hatch (1) Cargo door Fig. 1 The main door, located on the forward left side fuselage, is primarily intended for embarkation/ disembarkation. It is also used as an emergency exit (type I). The main door is of ”semi−plug” type, held in position by door stops, guided pins and doorway support fittings. When rotating the door handle from closed position,the door moves slightly upwards to a position where the door stops and guide pins are clear of the doorway support fittings. The door can then be swung outwards to the fully open position. Overwing exit (Type lll) Cockpit escape hatch A9910 If the main door handle has been inadvertently moved to the closed position with the door open, a latch in the middle of the door (inside) has to be pressed before the handle can be returned to open. The latch is a plastic ”roller” about 5 cm long. General The aircraft is provided with one Cargo door which is not considered as an emergency exit and normally operated from outside. On some aircraft the Cargo door may be operated also from inside, by inserting a handle into the door locking mechanism. Forward right exit (Type ll) MAIN DOOR Main door (Type l) Emergency exits NOTE When a ground air conditioning unit is supplying air to the cabin with the doors closed, the cabin may become slightly pressurized (depending on the capacity of the unit). This may require an extra effort to open the emergency exits and to unlock the main door. Leaving the cockpit ground communication hatch slightly open would alleviate the situation. Friction loads between the door and the doorway, induced by cabin pressurization, will prevent door opening until cabin differential pressure has been reduced to a low value. When opened fully, a spring−loaded hook on top of the main door hinge will engage an external fuselage bracket, retaining the door in the fully open position. To close the door, the hook is released by either of the two door lock release knobs, accessible from the cabin and the ground, respectively. 6/10.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Exits CAUTION The main door will swing open if the door is unlocked and the cabin happens to be pressurized.

EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Exits For inside operation there is a handle stowed in the cargo compartment. CARGO DOOR NOTE The cargo door is not to be considered as an emergency exit. General The cargo door is located on the aft fuselage left side. When opened, it slides inwards/ upwards into the ceiling where it is stowed. The door weight is balanced by wires and springs, so that it will remain in any position desired along its rails. Operation The cargo door is normally operated from outside by pulling out and turning the door handle. On some aircraft the door can also be operated from inside. From a/c 260 and up there is no handle for door inside operation. Without Mod No 1819 accomplished: The Inside Door Handle can be inserted in the fitting through a hole in the door linkage cover panel. With Mod No 1819 accomplished: Mod No 1819 is part of the improved cargo Liner modification meeting the more stringent fire resistant equipment. To use the inside door handle with this mod requires the door linkage cover panel to be removed first. A handle (if installed) can then be inserted in the fitting. The linkage cover panel can be removed by unscrewing 8 large/headed screws. No tool is required. Optional position Fwd bulkhead cargo comp.

GENERAL The fire protection system provides: − Fire detection of the engines plus an extinguisher system. − Detector failure system. − Tail pipe overheat detection. − Smoke detection for the avionics, lavatory and cargo compartments. − Extinguisher system for the cargo compartment in standard version aircraft. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Engine fire protection (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2) Detection of fire or overheat in the engine nacelle fire zone is ensured by a single continuous loop detection circuit below each engine. There is one control unit for each engine. The control unit continuously monitors the resistance value in the loop. If a preset resistance value indicating a fire is reached, the unit will activate the fire warning system. Too quick resistance change in the loop, however, will not result in a fire warning but in a detector failure indication, indicating that the loop has been mechanically short circuited and is unreliable. For a fire, the following warnings will be given: − Fire bell − MASTER WARNING and L/R ENG FIRE (CWP) light and L/R ENG fire handle light (red). Pressing either of the master warning lights or pulling the respective fire handle will extinguish both master warning lights, silence the fire bell and change the flashing L/R ENG FIRE light on CWP to steady. The L/R ENG FIRE light and L/R ENG fire handle light remains on as long as the warned condition exists. A detector failure gives the following indications: − MASTER CAUTION and L/R FIRE DET FAIL (CWP) light. Pressing either of the master caution lights will extinguish both master caution lights and change the flashing L/R FIRE DET FAIL light on CWP to FIRE PROTECTION Description steady. The CWP light remains on as long as the caution condition exists. The engine fire warning and detector failure system can be tested with two switches on the TEST 1 panel. Using these switches, both an engine fire and a loop short circuit are simulated with correct warning indications both aurally and visually. Pulling a fire handle will have the following result: − Engine fuel shutoff valve is closed. − Engine bleed air pressure regulator valve is closed. − Start−Gen field relay is open. − Fire bell is silenced. − Master warning is reset, indicated by the master warning lights going out. − Both main and reserve extinguisher squibs for the engine are armed. − Right fire handle shuts off the power supply to prop. brake. Hydraulic lock valves will keep the brake engaged and PROP BRAKE light and MASTER WARNINGS come on. There is one extinguisher bottle installed in each engine nacelle equipment compartment. Extinguishing agent is Halon 1301. Each bottle can be discharged into the fire zone of the nacelle where it is installed or it can be discharged and routed to the nacelle on the other wing to serve as reserve for its extinguisher bottle, e.g. the left FIRE EXTG switch discharges the left extinguisher into the left engine if the left fire handle has been pulled, and into the right engine if the right fire handle has been pulled. The released extinguishant is discharged into the engine fire zone area through a manifold optimizing distribution to the spray nozzles. The armed extinguisher squib (explosive cartridge) is activated by the respective bottle’s FIRE EXTG switch located adjacent to its fire handle. 2.2 Tail pipe overtemperature (Fig. 1) Applicable to a/c without mod. 3400/3401 There are three overtemperature detectors installed around each engine tail pipe. The detectors are wired in parallel so that an overheat signal from a 7.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual single detector is enough to initiate an overheat warning. Applicable to a/c with mod. 3400/3401 There is one pneumatic detector for each engine tailpipe. The detector consists of a hermetically sealed responder housing with electrical switches and a gas filled sensor tube. If the tail pipe temperature reaches a predetermined value, a switch will close and initiate an overheat warning. Applicable to all aircraft When a tail pipe overtemperature is detected, the following warnings will be given: − MASTER WARNING and L/R TAIL P HOT (CWP) light. Pressing either of the master warning lights will cancel the warning except the L/R TAIL P HOT light which will go from flashing to steady and stay on until the tail pipe temperature has decreased. The engine fire loop test switch is also used to test the tail pipe overtemperature system. Activating the switch will simulate an overtemperature condition and thereby check the integrity of the circuit to the detectors. 2.3 Smoke detection (Fig. 3) There are three independent smoke detection systems installed, namely in the avionics compartment, lavatory and in the cargo compartment. The smoke detectors, one in each compartment, use a pulsed light beam and a photo sensor to detect smoke. With Mod No 1819 installed there are two smoke detectors in the cargo compartment. The respective warning is triggered when smoke density reaches a preset value. If smoke is detected in any compartment, the following warnings will be activated: − MASTER WARNING and AVIONIC, LAV or CARGO SMOKE (CWP) light. FIRE PROTECTION Description TEST 1 panel. When activated, smoke conditions in all compartments are simulated and all warnings activated. 2.4 Cargo compartment fire extinguisher system The cargo compartment is provided with a fire extinguisher system consisting of a Halon 1301 extinguisher. The extinguisher is located behind the rear bulkhead of the cargo compartment on the right side. The tube terminates at a nozzle that is designed to provide an even distribution of extinguisher agent in the cargo compartment. The extinguisher container is a dual wall type, a bottle within the bottle. When the bottle is discharged, the outer volume rapidly floods the compartment with agent in order to extinguish the fire. The inner volume slowly leaks a regulated flow of the agent through a restrictor maintaining a specified concentration level high enough to prevent reignition. If smoke is detected in the cargo compartment, the flight crew can activate the fire extinguisher system by operating the CARGO FIRE EXTG switch on the overhead panel. A CARGO EXTG light adjacent to the extinguisher switch is operated by a pressure switch sensing pressure in the inner volume. Normal pressure in the extinguisher container is 360 psi. The CARGO EXTG light comes on when pressure decreases to 310−260 psi indicating low pressure in the bottle. When the extinguisher system is activated the light will come on when the outer volume has been drained and the pressure in the inner volume has reached the trigging level, this can take up to 15 minutes. Accordingly CARGO EXTG light not coming on in sequence with activation of the FIRE EXTG shall not be interpreted as a non functioning system. Pressing either of the master warning lights will cancel all warnings except the respective CWP light, which will change from flashing to steady and stay on until the smoke has disappeared. In the standard passenger version the smoke detectors are tested by one single test switch on the 7.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.5 FIRE PROTECTION Description Optional cargo compartment fire extinguisher system An optional extinguisher system, identical to the standard system, may be installed on the left side of the cargo compartment. Like the standard system, the extinguisher is discharged in two stages, the first with rapid flooding and the second with a slower regulated flow. The time difference between activation of FIRE EXTG 1 and 2 must therefore be more than 2 minutes to prevent a pressure chock due to two successive flooding discharges. 7.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 3 Aircraft Operations Manual FIRE PROTECTION Description THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 7.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 4 Aircraft Operations Manual A11992 Fig. 1 FIRE PROTECTION Description Engine fire protection and exhaust duct overtemperature system 7.1 Applicable to aircraft without Mod.

FLIGHT CONTROLS Description GENERAL The flight controls are divided into two groups: − Primary flight controls consisting of elevators, ailerons and rudder. − Secondary flight controls consisting of trim system and the flaps. All primary flight controls are conventional, manually operated rod and cable assemblies. All control surfaces are mass balanced. The flaps are electrically controlled and hydraulically actuated. The trim system is electrically controlled and electrically actuated. Geared tabs are used with the elevator and aileron systems while a spring tab is used with the rudder system. The geared tabs deflect proportionally to control surface movement to assist the control forces by means of aerodynamic effect on the tab. The rudder pedals are mechanically linked to the spring tab, and via torsion bars to the rudder. A rudder travel limiting system limits the control system operating range as a function of airspeed. All tabs are controlled electrically from cockpit when used for trimming. On ground, all primary flight controls can be locked by a gust lock system. Rudder Tab Elevator Tab Aileron Tab Flap Horizontal stabilizer A10865 Fig. 1 Flight control surfaces 8.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Ailerons Each aileron is hinged to the wing trailing edge at two points. The left and right aileron control channels are mechanically interconnected. However, should one of the control channels become jammed, the other channel can be controlled by applying excessive force to the control wheel or disconnected by pulling the roll disconnect handle in the cockpit which separates the two channels from each other. If the handle is not pulled the disconnect function is automatically reset when the excessive control force no longer is applied. After the handle has been pulled, disconnection is permanent and the system can only be reset on the ground by use of the reset switch adjacent to the disconnect unit. When the control channels are disconnected the left pilot has control of the left aileron while right pilot retains control of the right aileron, and the pilot whose aileron channel is free, maintains sufficient control of the aircraft with his wheel. A centering spring unit is installed in each control system to improve the lateral stability at extreme sideslip angles. The spring unit also compensates the aerodynamic upfloat in case of a disconnection during flight. A sensor supplies aileron position information to the flight recorder. The autopilot aileron servo drive is mechanically linked to the right aileron channel. 2.2 Elevators The elevators are hinged to the horizontal stabilizer at three points. The left and right elevator control channels are mechanically interconnected. However, should one of the control channels become jammed, the other channel can be controlled by applying excessive force to the control column or disconnected by pulling the pitch disconnect handle FLIGHT CONTROLS Description in the cockpit which separates the two channels from each other. If the handle is not pulled the disconnect function is automatically reset when the excessive control force no longer is applied. After the handle has been pulled, disconnection is permanent and the system can only be reset on the ground. When the control channels are disconnected the left pilot has control of the left elevator while the right pilot retains control of the right elevator, and the pilot whose elevator channel is free, maintains sufficient control of the aircraft with his column. If left channel is jammed, no stick pusher movement is available, see AOM 19/4.1. An elevator downspring is installed in each control system in order to improve the stick−force variation with speed at low speed. The spring acts with a constant force over the whole elevator range of travel. Additionally, an elevator upspring is installed in each control system as a complement to the downspring. The upspring only acts at elevator angles of 6 down or more. The spring−force increases with increased down deflection. The spring improves the pushover characteristics of the aircraft but has no function at manoeuvres encountered during normal operation. Two sensors supply elevator position information to the flight recorder. The autopilot elevator servo drive is mechanically linked to the left elevator channel. 2.3 Rudder The rudder is hinged to the fin at two points and is operated with assistance of a spring tab. An aerodynamic balance horn is located at the top of the rudder. Each pair of rudder pedals is mechanically interconnected. The pedal positions can be individually adjusted with a lever mounted in the center of each pair of pedals. A sensor supplies rudder position information to the flight recorder. The autopilot rudder servo drive is mechanically linked to the rudder control system. 8.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual Rudder Limiter System The rudder control system includes a rudder limiter control unit that controls a rudder limiting mechanism to prevent overload conditions as a result of excessive rudder pedal displacement or excessive control forces on the rudder at high speed. The rudder limiting system provides restrictions within following speed ranges: − At airspeeds below 150 kts, the system permits full range of movement for the rudder. − At airspeeds between 150 and 200 kts the system limits rudder deflection to 15 deg. in either direction. − At airspeeds above 200 kts the system limits rudder deflections to 6.3 deg. in either direction. In a malfunction of the system the RUDDER LIMIT light on the Central Warning Panel comes on. The Rudder Limiter Control Unit will consider one of the following cases as a system malfunction: power loss, limiting mechanism fails to enter proper position for corresponding airspeed, a failure in the speed sensors or excessive rudder command for corresponding airspeed due to mechanical failure. The rudder limiter system can be overridden by setting the RUDDER LIMIT switch to the OVRD position. By setting the RUDDER LIMIT switch to OVRD the rudder limiting mechanism will be retracted by the override actuator enabling full range of movement for the rudder at any airspeeds. The RUDDER LIMIT light will then persist until the airspeed is below 140 kts, where actual position of the limiting mechanism will correspond with the airspeed thus extinguishing the warning light. 2.4 Flaps There is a single, slotted flap on each wing. The flaps are mechanically interconnected and are operated by hydraulic power and controlled with a handle on the center pedestal. The flaps can also be powered by hydraulic hand pump pressure. Ref. AOM 10.1 and 10.2. To prevent flap damage due to excessive air loads, a blow−back protection is incorporated in the hydraulic system. FLIGHT CONTROLS Description There are four handle ”detents”, designated, 7, 15, 20 and 35, respectively. Cockpit indication is by way of a dual pointer instrument, with a white ”band” at each setting. The actual flap deflection achieved at each setting varies with airspeed. At the maximum airspeed allowed for a setting the air loads on the flap surfaces make the pointers stop at the ”upper end” of the white band, whereas on ground they may stop closer to the ”lower end”. The white band thus indicates a ”range”, to accommodate the flexing of the flap surfaces at different airspeeds. A left flap position sensor supplies signals used for: − − − − − Left flap position indicator pointer in cockpit Position feedback for flap operation. Takeoff configuration warning (CONFIG) Flight recorder. Left stall warning channel. A right flap position sensor supplies signals used for: − Right flap position indicator pointer in cockpit − Landing configuration warning (CONFIG) − Right stall warning channel. A flap position signal for the GPWS is also supplied directly from the flap control unit. If there is a malfunction in the flap electrical control system the FLAPS light on the CWP illuminates. A flap control system TEST lamp and a TEST switch are installed on the overhead panel. 2.5 Gust locks The gust lock is controlled with a handle on the center pedestal in the cockpit. The system locks the elevator and aileron controls mechanically and the rudder electrically. Either of the control columns must be pushed forward in order to get the elevator gust−lock into grip. With the gust lock engaged, power lever movement is limited to prevent the aircraft from taking off with the controls locked. The gust lock handle also controls the following electrical functions. With the gust lock engaged the following is possible: 8.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 3 Aircraft Operations Manual − Operation of the right engine propeller brake − Erasing of cockpit voice recorder. Should any disconnection occur in the gust lock control link system, the system fails in the disengaged position. If the gust lock handle is in off position but the rudder gust lock remains engaged, the GUST lock light on the CWP illuminates. 2.6 Trim systems Main roll trim is accomplished by operating the ROLL trim switches to actuate the left aileron trim tab. Standby roll trim is accomplished by operating the STBY ROLL trim switches to actuate the right aileron trim tab. Yaw trim is accomplished by operating the YAW trim switches to actuate the rudder tab. All these switches are located in the trim panel on the center pedestal in the cockpit. Main pitch trim is accomplished by operating the trim switches on either control wheel to actuate the left elevator trim tab, and via a synchronization system, the right trim tab. The left pilot’s switches override the right pilot’s switches. Built−in monitoring circuits deactivate the synchronization in case of a discrepancy, and illuminate the PITCH TRIM light on the CWP. Standby pitch trim is accomplished by operating the STBY PITCH trim switches on the center pedestal. These switches actuate the right elevator trim tab only. FLIGHT CONTROLS Description With the pitch trim synchronization deactivated both main (left) and standby (right) trim tabs can be operated individually by the control wheel trim switches and the STBY PITCH trim switches respectively. All trim switches are dual switches to prevent runaway trim, and must be operated together to complete the necessary electrical circuit. A common trim tab position indicator is located on the center instrument panel. 2.7 Takeoff configuration warning The trim and flap positions are fed into the CONFIG (configuration) warning circuit of the master warning system. With the aircraft weight on the wheels, flaps at takeoff position (within 0 to 15 degrees range), pitch trim in the normal takeoff range (green band), and condition levers set for maximum PROP RPM, the configuration for takeoff is correct. The power levers can then be advanced to maximum power for takeoff without a CONFIG warning. However, if any of these conditions are not met, the master warning is activated. The CONFIG warning light on the center warning panel flashes bright red, an intermittent horn sounds and the red master warning light come on flashing. Pressing the master warning light cancels the horn, the light goes off, and the CONFIG light changes to steady. 2.8 Landing configuration warning The flap warning system is part of the Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS). See AOM 19/2.1 Standby pitch trim also deactivates the synchronization. In this case it can be reset with the PITCH RESET switch on the trim switch panel. 8.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 4 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

FUEL Description GENERAL Fuel is stored in two tanks, referred to as the left and the right tank. Maximum usable fuel capacity of each tank is 2845 lb + 200 lb (1290 kg + 90 kg) approximately 425 US gallons (1610 l). A single point pressure fueling system makes it possible to fill the tanks automatically to full or to mid−level in approximately 15 min., or 8 min. respectively. The tanks can also be filled to any intermediate level by setting the fueling control switches to OFF when the desired level is reached. Overwing filler necks permit gravity fueling. The pressure fueling system can also be used for defueling. Normally, the left engine is supplied by the left tank and the right engine by the right tank, but it is also possible to crossfeed both engines from either tank. An interconnect line between the tanks makes it possible to keep the tank levels equal. There is one engine−driven main fuel boost pump on each engine and an electrically driven standby A11629 Fig. 1 pump in each tank. The standby pump starts automatically by a pressure switch in case of a main pump failure. The standby pumps are also used for supplying the engine with fuel during engine start until the main pump can provide sufficient pressure. The standby pumps are controlled by pilot operated switches on the overhead panel and automatic switches on the condition levers. Fuel quantity is indicated by two gauges on the center instrument panel and there is a low level warning for each tank. The fuel gauging system is designed and manufactured in accordance with Class II of MIL−G−26988C which means that the maximum error is +/− 2% of indication or +/− 0.75% of full scale. On ground, the fuel quantity can be measured by magnetic dipsticks in the undersurface of the wing. The magnetic dipsticks only measure fuel quantities below 1100 lb (500 kg). Fuel quantity is also indicated by two gauges on the fueling panel. Fuel temperature is indicated on a digital display on the overhead panel. Fuel tanks − location 9/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS (Fig. 2) 2.1 Fuel storage Each fuel tank consists of two cells, integral with the wing, one inboard and one outboard of the engine nacelle. Baffling is provided inside the fuel cells to prevent rapid displacements of fuel within the cell during aircraft maneuvering. The two cells are interconnected by a fuel hose and a vent line. A flapper valve in the fuel line permits fuel flow from the outboard to the inboard cell only. Each outboard cell has a filler neck for gravity fueling. The lower end of the inboard cell has a hopper tank with a capacity of 200 lb (90 kg). Four flapper valves permit fuel to flow into, but not out of the hopper tank to provide fuel for the engine feed system at all times. A negative ”G” suction feed inlet canister is attached to the wing structure within the hopper tank and surrounds the suction feed inlet check valve. The canister insures continuous fuel feed during limited uncoordinated or negative ”G” aircraft maneuvering. A drain valve is incorporated in the lowest part of the hopper tank. The inboard cell is vented to the outboard cell. The outboard cell is then vented overboard through a vent line at the underside of the wing. The vent system maintains a slight overpressure in the tanks during flight. A baffle in the outboard cell prevents fuel from sloshing out through the vent. The vent will also provide for overflow in case of overfilling when fueling, e.g. due to a failure in the shutoff system. 2.2 Fuel distribution Pressure fueling system A single point receptacle and refuel/defuel control panel is located in the right wing leading edge, outboard of the engine nacelle. The control panel is supplied direct from the batteries and does not require any power to be on in the cockpit. A refueling/ defueling line connects the receptacle with a refueling shutoff valve in each tank and with a defueling valve on the crossfeed line. The refueling shutoff valves are solenoid controlled and actuated by the fueling pressure. They are lo- FUEL Description cated inside the inboard tank cells. The outboard cells are replenished by overflow through the vent line from the inboard cells. Optical sensors are used to determine mid−level and full level. When activated, the selected sensor interrupts electrical power to the affected refueling shutoff valve solenoid and the valve closes. If the full level detection fails, an overfill float switch in each cell will interrupt the power and turn on the corresponding OVERFULL light on the refuel/defuel panel. The defueling valve is operated by a DC electric motor and is of the same type as the interconnect, crossfeed and fire shutoff valves Engine feed system A fuel feed line connects each tank with the engine on the same side. A crossfeed line with a shutoff valve interconnects the two feed lines. A suction inlet and a standby pump with inlet for the feed line are located in each hopper tank. Check valves in the inlets prevent return flow into the tank. An engine−driven main pump on each engine draws fuel from the tank. A main pump differential pressure switch, sensing the differential pressure across the pump, actuates the corresponding standby pump if the main pump fails, provided that the L/R STBY pump switch is set in the guarded AUTO position. The main pump differential pressure switch also actuates the MAIN PUMP warning light on the overhead fuel panel. In case of engine shutdown, a condition lever actuated switch will inhibit the standby pump auto starting. Another pressure switch senses the pressure in the feed line upstream of the main pump and activates the STBY PRESS light on the fuel panel to indicate standby pump operation. In case of standby pump failure, the standby pump on the opposite side can be switched on to supply fuel through the crossfeed. The capacity of each standby pump is sufficient to supply both engines at all power settings. A fuel heater and a fuel filter are incorporated in the engine installation. See AOM 17.1 for description. An electrical shutoff valve at each engine nacelle will shut off the fuel supply to the engine if the fire handle is pulled. The L/R VALVE CLOSED light on 9/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual FUEL Description the overhead fuel panel indicates the condition. Pressure relief valves in the shutoff valve and the suction check valves protect the feed line from excessive pressure due to thermal expansion when the shutoff valve is closed. 2.3 Indicating systems Electrical quantity indication The quantity indication system is of the capacitance type and consists of six probes and two indicators for each tank plus a signal conditioner. The signal conditioner converts the capacitance values of the probes to indicator readings. Since the capacitance depends on fuel level and density, the indicators will show the weight of the fuel on board. Mechanical quantity indication There is a magnetic dipstick in each inboard tank cell. The stick is accessible from the underside of the wing. When lowered, the stick will engage magnetically with a float device inside the tank. The protruding length will indicate fuel level by the dipstick scale indexed in inches. The fuel quantity can then be calculated from the dipstick index. See the table below. The fuel quantities are calculated with a fuel density of 6.7 lb/US gallon or 0.802 kg/l for a levelled aircraft. The dipstick scale is ranging from 0 to 10.0 inches corresponding to 114 − 1038 lb or 52 − 472 kg. Temperature indication NOTE Due to fuel tank probe wiring, fuel quantity indication may momentarily change (less than 1% of full scale indication) when transmitting on COM 2. A fuel low level caution is provided for each tank. When the fuel level is below 300lb 70lb (135 kg 30 kg) in a tank, a float switch in each inboard cell A11582 will activate the master caution, L/R LOW LEVEL light on the overhead panel and FUEL (CWP) light. Fig. 2 The fuel temperature indicator is provided to indicate the temperature of the fuel being delivered to the engines. A temperature sensor is installed in the fuel system upstream the engine fuel inlet. The temperature signal is transmitted to an indicator on the overhead panel. The indicator is shared with the battery temperature indicator by means of a selector. Dipstick index 9/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 3 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

Use a coin or a screwdriver to release the dipstick. Pull the dipstick down and then push it up until it engages magnetically with the float device inside the tank. The protruding length will indicate fuel level by reading the dipstick index scale. To open: If the tank is filled with more fuel than indicated by 10 index, the correct fuel quantity can not be measured by the dipstick. Reading 10 index means however that there is a minimum of 472 kgs/1038 lbs in the tank (based on a density of 0.802 kg/L). A11581 Fig. 3 Use a fuel drain tool, turn fuel drain valve counterclockwise to unlock the valve. A spring action will make the valve extend and the fuel will drain. To close: Push the valve up into detent and turn it clockwise until it stops. Valve should now stay in closed position. Check drain for leakage.

REMOVE Pressure defueling is the quickest and most common way to defuel. The tanks can be defueled either simultaneously or independently. The standby pumps are used for pressure defueling. If a large quantity of fuel must be defueled use GPU power supply, otherwise the standby pumps will drain the batteries. DEFUELING If standby pumps not available for defuel, suction defueling by the fuel truck can be used. However, it’s not so effective and takes longer time. At suction, the tanks can be defueled simultaneously but only the right tank independently, due to the fuel system design. Outside aircraft 1.

GENERAL Hydraulic power is used to operate the following aircraft systems: − − − − − Flaps. Landing gear. Brakes. Nose wheel steering. Propeller brake. An electrically driven pump normally supplies hydraulic pressure to four accumulators. For emergency and certain maintenance uses, a hand pump is installed. The electrical pump is controlled by a single switch in the cockpit. The four hydraulic accumulators provide pressure as follows: − One main accumulator supplying flaps, landing gear, nose wheel steering and propeller brake. − One emergency accumulator supplying landing gear emergency uplock release. − Two accumulators for the brake system, one for the outboard brakes and one for the inboard brakes. All hydraulic system components are located in the nose area on each side of nose wheel well (left and right hydraulic compartment). Hydraulic fluid used in the system is mineral based MIL−H−5606. The fluid is red for identification and easy detection of leaks. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS (Fig. 1) 2.1 Hydraulic reservoirs HYDRAULICS Description cubic inches (2.5 liters) and is filled through a gravity fill port. Overflow from the main reservoir relief valve and bleed valve is also directed into this reservoir. 2.2 Hydraulic pumps Electrical pump The electrically powered pump provides hydraulic pressure for all normal operation. The pump is automatically shut off to prevent operation when there is no demand. The electric motor for the pump is controlled by a pressure switch in the main accumulator hydraulic circuit and by landing gear operation. The pump will operate automatically when: − The main accumulator hydraulic pressure drops below 2100 psi and until the pressure reaches 2900 psi. − Landing gear is selected DOWN and until left main gear is locked down. − Landing gear is selected UP and until both main gears are locked up. − R PROP BRK switch is selected ON. If required, automatic pump control may be overridden by using the override (OVRD) position of the HYD PUMP switch enabling the pump to run continuously. In OVRD the pump delivers hydraulic fluid with a pressure of 3000 psi. Hand Pump Should the electric pump fail Main, Outboard and Inboard brake accumulator may be pressurized from a hand pump to the right of the center pedestal. The hand pump is operated by a detachable handle stowed on the right, rear cockpit wall. Main reservoir The main reservoir has a capacity of 310 cubic inches (approx. 5 liters). The reservoir is pressurized from the emergency accumulator circuit to provide a positive pressure supply to the hydraulic pump. In case of loss of pressurization, a spring will ensure a positive fluid supply. Hand pump reservoir The hand pump reservoir supplies hydraulic fluid to the hand pump exclusively. It has a capacity of 150 10.1 PAGE Aprr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.3 HYDRAULICS Description Hand pump selector As the hand pump does not have the capacity to simultaneously operate all systems, a selector valve is installed. The valve allows pressure to be directed to the following accumulators, one at a time: − Main accumulator. − Outboard brake accumulator. − Inboard brake accumulator. To extend/retract the flaps, the flaps handle must first be set to desired setting before using the hand pump to extend/retract the flaps to selected setting. To extend the landing gear, the handle must first be selected down before using the handpump to extend the gear. 2.4 Hydraulic accumulators The four identical accumulators are of piston−type and are precharged with nitrogen to 1650 psi. Each accumulator has a capacity of 22 cubic inches (approx 0.35 liters) hydraulic fluid at 2900 psi pressure. It is important to notice that, in case of a hydraulic pump failure, when pressure is consumed and pressure in an accumulator is reaching 1650 psi (precharged pressure), the hydraulic pressure will rapidly drop to zero since the piston has reached it’s end position and thereby seizing to create pressure into the system. 2.5 Warning system An amber caution light is provided on the Central Warning Panel. The light will come on together with the MASTER CAUTION light and single chime in case of low pressure in main or emergency accumulator or high fluid temperature in the main reservoir. It shall be noted that low pressure in one or both brake accumulators always results in low pressure in the main accumulator. This means in practice that low pressure in any of the four accumulators will trigger the warning system. 10.1 PAGE Aprr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual HYDRAULICS Description Gear emergency uplock actuator actuator Return A11221 Fig. 1 Hydraulic system − schematic 10.1 PAGE 3 Apr 01/15 Aircraft Operations Manual HYDRAULICS Description THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 10.1 PAGE 4 Apr 01/15 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description GENERAL The aircraft is fully equipped for all−weather operation. The ice and rain protection system is divided into: − − − − − − Wing and stabilizer (boot) de−icing. Engine anti−icing. Propeller de−icing. Windshield heating. Windshield wipers. Pitot tubes, Outside Air Temperature probe (OAT) and angle of attack sensor heating. Air bleed and electrical power, mainly from the 115VAC wild frequency system, is used for ice and rain protection. Bleed air is used for the wing and stabilizer inflatable boots, the engine split lip and inlet guide vanes. Electrical power is used for the remainder of the ice and rain protection systems. All ice and rain protection systems are controlled from the overhead panel except for the main pitot tubes, temperature probe and angle of attack sensors which are powered automatically as soon as one AC generator is on line. There are also caution lights advising flight crew of any system fault. When any caution light is illuminated, the ICE PROT MASTER CAUTION light is activated. A9943 Fig. 1 Ice and rain protection system 11.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Wing and stabilizer (boot) de−ice Wing and stabilizer de−icing is provided by conventional inflatable boots located on the wing and leading edges. Normal color of the boots are black but as an option silver colored boots are available. On the silver colored boots there are black stripes to improve ice detection. Pre−cooled and regulated engine bleed air from both engines, supplied via the pneumatic system, is used for de−icing. With Mod No 2310 installed HP bleed valve will automatically be opened when associated PL are below 64 PLA (min takeoff position) and the CYCLING switch is placed in either ONE CYCLE or CONT position provided the HP Bleed Switch is in AUTO. Once activated the HP BLD VALVES will be opened for 30 sec. to cover a complete boot de−ice cycle. The bleed air flows via a normally open shut−off valve, controlled by the AIR SUPPLY ON/OFF switch, to a pressure regulator in each nacelle. The regulator reduces the pressure to 18 psi and contains an integral relief valve preventing the pressure from exceeding 25 psi if the regulator should become stuck open. An overheat sensor is installed downstream of each regulator. NOTE On a/c s/n 240−up (post Mod 2083) the regulator reduces the pressure to 21 psi and contains an integral relief valve preventing the pressure from exceeding 27 psi if the regulator should become stuck open. ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description NOTE On a/c s/n 240−up (post Mod 2083) the regulated pressure is directed to a distribution duct supplying all boots through five ejector flow control valves. The ejector flow control valves are solenoid operated and located two in each nacelle for inboard and outboard wing de−ice and one in the fin for stabilizer de−ice. Integral with each distribution valve or ejector flow control valve is an air ejector which passes a small flow of regulated air overboard to create enough suction to prevent the boots from inflating due to aerodynamic lift when not pressurized. When a solenoid in a distribution valve or ejector flow control valve is energized, manually or by timer, it will shift from suction to pressure and a rapid inflation of the boot will occur, cracking accumulated ice. Upon completion of the automatically controlled 6 seconds timing cycle, the solenoid is de−energized and suction restored. In conditions of low temperature, −30C and below, the rubber in the boots becomes stiff which results in the deflation sequence being prolonged. The sequence of boot inflation is maintained by a timer control unit. Upon selection of either ONE CYCLE or CONT a timer will cause each boot zone to inflate in the following order: stabilizer, outboard wing, inboard wing, and finally re−inflation of stabilizer. When CONT is selected this inflation cycle will be repeated every third minute. A Push button for each boot zone permits manual override of the timer. The sensor will cause a DE−ICE OV TEMP light to come on whenever the temperature reaches 150C (300F). To monitor the boot de−ice system a TIMER light comes on should either of the following faults be detected: The regulated pressure is directed to a distribution duct supplying all boots through three distribution valves. The distribution valves are solenoid operated and located one in each nacelle for inboard and outboard wing de−ice and one in the fin for stabilizer deice. − No pressure is sensed downstream the valve sequenced for opening within 4 seconds. − The activated timer gives no inflation signal. − The boots are not cycling. − Pressure remains on in the stabilizer boot zones (AUTO CYCLING switch in CONT). − Pressure remains on in the stabilizer boot zones when next cycle is activated (AUTO CYCLING switch in ONE CYCLE). 11.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 2 Aircraft Operations Manual − Pressure remains on in Left and Right inboard wing or Left and Right outboard wing boot zones after more than 8 seconds. On a/c s/n 160−239: The following additional faults triggers the TIMER light: − Control power to timer is lost. If the W OUTB push button is depressed the TIMER light will go out. When the button is released the light will come on again. On a/c s/n 240−up: The following additional faults triggers the TIMER light: − Pressure remains on in any boot zone (AUTO CYCLING switch in ONE CYCLE or CONT). − Control power to timer is lost. − Depressing any of the Manual push buttons while in CONT or during a one CYCLE sequence will result in the TIMER light coming on momentarily. In CONT, ONE CYCLE or by manually overriding the timer the inflation sequences can be monitored by following the illumination of the green indication lights which will come on whenever the respective boot zone is pressurized if BOOT IND switch is in ON position. In OFF position no illumination will occur. 2.2 Engine anti−ice system (Fig. 3) 2.2.1 General An engine anti−ice system prevents ice formation on certain areas of the engine where ice buildup otherwise could be expected. These areas are the inlet lip, intake ducts including Inlet Protection Device (IPD) with exhaust nozzle which are electrically heated, and the splitter lip and inlet guide vanes, which are heated with bleed air. Both the electrical and the bleed air parts of the system are controlled by the same L/R ENGINE anti−ice switches. In order to increase the engine stall margin at low power operation, bleed air is bled from the 5th compressor stage and via the HMU operated sleeve ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description valve ported to the Splitter Lip, the inlet guide vanes and the Inlet Particle Separator Ejector Duct. When power is increased the bleed air reduces and at 90% Ng corrected (temperature related) the sleeve valve is fully closed. With engine anti−icing switched ON at low power settings some air is routed from the Sleeve Valve via the Electronic Solenoid Valve to the Splitter Lip and inlet guide vanes while the rest is routed direct from the Sleeve Valve. When power is increased relatively more air is routed via the Solenoid Valve and at high power settings all bleed air for anti−icing is routed from the Sleeve Valve via the Solenoid Valve. The electrical inlet duct heating uses 115VAC, wild frequency, supplied directly from each engine’s own AC generator only. Therefore, there can be no cross−feed from the other AC generator in case of malfunction. 2.2.2 Upper and Lower duct (Applicable to A/C with LUCAS intakes (without mod. no. 2095) In the lower leading edge section the duct is provided with a temperature control sensor, an under− temperature sensor and an over−temperature sensor. These sensors are connected to an inlet duct heater controller located in the engine nacelle equipment compartment. The normal temperature control sensor has preset control levels for inlet heat controller to ”cut in” at 60C (140F) and to ”cut out” at 80C (175F). A failure in the inlet ice protection system is indicated by L or R INTAKE light coming on. The light comes on if: − The over−temperature sensor senses a temperature exceeding 125C (257F) in which case the inlet heat controller will ”cut out” power to the heaters. (If the L/R ENGINE switch is left ON the light will go out when power is ”cut in” at 40C followed by a new overheat.) − The under−temperature sensor senses a temperature below 10C (50F). (Inhibited for 25 sec when switching on the system to avoid nuisance warnings). − Loss of power in one or more phases in the three−phase power supply system. 11.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 3 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.2.3 Upper and Lower Duct (Applicable to A/C with COX intakes (with mod no. 2095 installed) The upper duct and the lower duct, including the particle separator and exhaust nozzle, are each provided with four thin film resistor type temperature sensors whereof two in each group are used as primary sensors and two as back−up temp sensors. The sensors are connected to the Anti−ice Control Unit (ACU) which in turn is divided into two identical and independent microprocessor control channels for heating power regulations, both in normal and back−up mode. The ACU further includes fault monitoring and system test functions, it also contains a Control Unit Display (CUD) for degradation indications and two test/reset buttons. The CUD and buttons are located in the nacelle and is provided for maintenance trouble shooting purpose, however, when any indication light in the CUD is activated, the respective side INTAKE L/R Maintenance Light in the TEST 3 panel is activated, provided the aircraft is on ground and is controlled by the WoW switches. It shall be observed that shutting down an engine or setting one AC generator switch to OFF while the ENGINE ANTI−ICE is ON will result in the L or R INTAKE maintenance light to come ON. The only way to reset the light is by the reset buttons in the nacelle. − With Mod. No. 2250 the INTAKE L/R Maintenance Light in the TEST 3 panel is disconnected. − With Mod. No. 2255 the INTAKE L/R Maintenance Light in the TEST 3 panel is removed. On basis of the temperature information from the primary temp sensors, the two microprocessor control channels in the ACU supply time proportional modulated AC power to the thermo−wire heaters in the upper and lower duct. A failure in the inlet ice protection system is indicated by L or R INTAKE light in the ENGINE anti− ice panel coming on. The light comes on regardless of, if the ENGINE ANTI−ICE is switched ON or not. The light comes on if: − Loss of more than: one primary sensor ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description or one back−up sensor or one primary and one back−up sensor in one duct section (upper or lower) − Loss of DC power. − Loss of AC power, total or partial − An over−temperature is sensed resulting in disconnection of the primary microprocessor. Heat control will be maintained by the back−up processor. − An under−temperature is sensed resulting in disconnection of the primary microprocessor. Heat control will be maintained by the back−up processor. − Failure of one or more heater elements. − loss of primary or one back−up or one primary and one back−up temp sensor in one duct section (upper or lower). Anti−icing is still controlled by the primary micro processor. 2.2.4 Split Lip The split lip and inlet guide vanes are heated by bleed air ported from the 5th compressor stage via an engine anti−ice valve. A failure in the system is indicated by L or R AIR light coming on. The light comes on if: − The Electronic Solenoid Valve does not close when ENGINE anti−ice is switched OFF. − The Electronic Solenoid Valve does not open when ENGINE anti−ice is switched ON. Using engine anti−ice also illuminates L/R ENG ANTI−ICE (blue) lights located on the flight status panel. These lights come on whenever respectively L or R ENGINE anti−ice switch is turned on. The lights indicate that the system has been switched on but give no indication of correct operation of the system. 2.3 Propeller de−icing (Fig. 3) The propeller blades are equipped with boots which are electrically heated from the 115 V AC wild frequency buses. The system is controlled by a switch for each propeller with positions OFF−NORM−MAX. Incorporated in the system are indications and caution lights as follows: 11.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 4 Aircraft Operations Manual − The L/R PROP DE−ICE lights (blue) on the flight status panel which will come on when the system is working and will go out in case of system failure. − One ICE PROT light (amber) on the CWP which will come on flashing together with MASTER CAUTION in case of failure. − Two L/R PROP lights (amber) on the overhead panel will come on in case of failure. During normal operation each propeller de−icer boot is powered by it’s associated AC generator. In the event of an engine or AC generator failure the propelled de−icer boots are automatically powered from the opposite side. When the L/R PROP de−ice switch is in NORM/ MAX position 28 VDC will be applied to the timer/ switching/monitor unit. The timer unit alternately turns on power to two opposite pair of blades. In NORM position power is on for 11 seconds and off for 79 seconds. In MAX position power is on for 90 seconds and off for 90 seconds. It is very important to observe the temperature switching point for use of NORM resp MAX modes. If using MAX mode at temperatures warmer than −12 and NORM mode at temperatures warmer than −5 , there is a risk for the ice to melt and ”run back” and re−freeze behind the boots. Run back will cause a drastic reduction in Propeller thrust, up to about 30%. However, MAX mode may be used in the temperature range −10 to −12 SAT if unacceptable propeller vibrations are experienced. If unacceptable vibrations occur at warmer temperatures than −10 SAT use MAX mode for a short period until the vibrations disappear. Bear in mind the risk for run back. A timer fault monitoring unit will automatically disconnect the power and activate L or R PROP caution light in the ICE PROTECTION panel together with ICE PROT CWP light whenever one or more of the following faults arise: − − − − AC or DC power failure. Timer not cycling or remaining permanently on. Over−/Undercurrent to propeller boots. Cycling interval periods are off by more than 0.5%. ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description 2.4 Windshield heating (Fig. 4) The front windshields and the forward part of the side windshields are electrically heated from the 115 VAC, wild frequency buses for anti−icing. L AC BUS supplies heating power for L front and side windshields and R AC BUS supplies heating power for R front and side windshields. In addition, air from the air conditioning system is directed to the inside of the windshields to prevent fogging as soon as the air conditioning system is working. The power used for heating is regulated by two controllers. The left controller powers the left front and right side windshields while the right controller powers the right front and left side windshields. Once the windshields have reached their working temperature, the controllers will modulate the power output to keep this temperature. If an open or short circuit occurs in the normal temperature sensor, the over−temperature sensor will take over and modulate the temperature together with the controller. Each controller also provides overheat and fault protection. If a controller detects an overheat sensor circuit failure or a complete controller fault, it shuts off power to the affected windshield and illuminates the respective windshield L/R SIDE or L/R FRONT light. If, however, only the normal temperature circuit fails and the over−temperature sensor circuit takes over, the caution light will illuminate but the windshield is still heated. Positioning the switch for the affected windshield to OFF will extinguish the caution light and resets the controller channel for this windshield. The front windshields heating can only be selected ON or OFF. When set to ON, power is applied gradually by the controller to reduce thermal stresses in the windshields. If the windshields are cold, it may take up to 6 minutes before full power is applied. A/C 160−299 The side windshields have no low power warm-up period. Instead, there are two power settings available, NORM and HIGH. NORM is used for defogging while HIGH is used for de−icing. When heating is applied to a side windshield NORM setting must be used for at least 7 minutes before HIGH may be selected in order to reduce the thermal stresses. As an additional precaution when HIGH is selected, 11.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 5 Aircraft Operations Manual NORM power will be applied whenever the aircraft is on ground (WOW, weight on wheels switches sensing ground mode). A/C 300−UP The side windshields heating can be selected ON or OFF. When set to ON, power is applied gradually by the controller to reduce thermal stresses in the windshields. 2.5 Windshield wipers (Fig. 5) Each front windshield is provided with a windshield wiper. The wipers can be operated both at HIGH and LOW speed. Also, each wiper rotary switch has a PARK position where the wiper is returned to stowed position. The wiper motors have a thermal overheat protection with auto−reset when the temperature has decreased. 2.6 Pitot tubes, Outside Air Temperature probe (OAT) and angle of attack sensor heating (Fig. 5) The pitot tubes, temperature probe (OAT) and angle of attack sensors are electrically heated. All except the standby pitot tube are supplied with 115 VAC, wild frequency. The standby pitot tube is supplied with 28 VDC. There is a main pitot tube and an angle of attack sensor on each side of the airplane in the cockpit area. These tubes and sensors are heated whenever the 115 VAC wild frequency buses are powered. The temperature probe located forward of the pilots windshields is also powered directly from the 115 VAC wild frequency system but via the WOW switch, powering the probe only in the air. A heated probe without any air flow would give an incorrect temperature reading. The standby pitot tube, powered by 28 VDC, is controlled by a STBY PITOT switch which must be in ON position for the pitot tube to be heated. The pitot tube must be powered for 5 minutes to be provide with full anti−ice protection. ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description 2.7 Ice detector (Optional Mod No. 1933) The ice detector consists of an ultrasonic axially vibrating tube as sensing element. The logic is controlled by a micro−processor built into the ice detector housing. Upon sensing ice as evident by a change in frequency, at a preset level, the micro− processor will activate the L and R ENG ANTI−ICE blue status lights which will start flashing. When switching ENG A/I ON the blue light will change to steady. The ice detector has a heating element which will de−ice the detector in a cyclic manner. When the frequency of vibration is sensed to be at a ”no ice” level the heating is switched off and a new ice detection cycle is started. If the ENG ANTI−ICE has been switched ON previously, and remains ON, the blue status lights will remain steady, i.e. the flashing is suppressed. The INVERTER must be in INV 1 position for the ice detector to work, unless Mod No. 2546 is installed, when the Ice detector is powered from R AC GEN BUS and will then work regardless of inverter selection. CAUTION IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE ICE DETECTOR ALERT SHALL NOT BE USED AS THE CUE FOR SWITCHING ON ENG ANTI−ICE. THE ICE DETECTOR FUNCTION SHALL BE CONSIDERED AN ALERT SHOULD ICING CONDITIONS BE ENTERED UNNOTICED FOR ANY REASON. 2.8 Ice detector (Optional Mod No. 3168) The ice detector consists of an ultrasonic axially vibrating tube as sensing element. The logic is controlled by a micro−processor built into the ice detector housing. Upon sensing ice as evident by a change in frequency, at a preset level, the micro− processor will activate the L and R ENG ANTI−ICE blue status lights which will start flashing and the ICE COND indication light will illuminate in white. When switching ENG A/I ON the blue light will change to steady. 11.1 PAGE Jun 01/17 6 Aircraft Operations Manual ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Description The ice detector has a heating element which will de−ice the detector in a cyclic manner. When the frequency of vibration is sensed to be at a ”no ice” level the heating is switched off, the ICE COND indication light is extinguished and a new ice detection cycle is started. If the ENG ANTI−ICE has been switched ON previously, and remains ON, the blue status lights will remain steady, i.e. the flashing is suppressed. The ice detector is powered from R AC GEN BUS. CAUTION IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE ICE DETECTOR ALERT SHALL NOT BE USED AS THE CUE FOR SWITCHING ON ENG ANTI−ICE. THE ICE DETECTOR FUNCTION SHALL BE CONSIDERED AN ALERT SHOULD ICING CONDITIONS BE ENTERED UNNOTICED FOR ANY REASON. 2.9 Ice Speed system, Mod No. 2650, SB 27−075 (This modification is mandatory for Canadian registrated aircraft).

If the drop lasts more than 7 seconds the AC generator will trip and MASTER CAUTION / ICE PROT (CWP) lights will come on together with AC GEN caution and other AC--powered system caution lights in the overhead panel. There are also cases where ice protection system caution lights will come on without AC GEN caution light. This is due to an inherent warning system time delay. The AC generator will come on line automatically when PROP RPM increases, and the engine INTAKE caution light will go out. However, the windshield FRONT/SIDE and PROP caution lights can only be extinguished by resetting the systems (switches selected to OFF and then to desired position). 11.2 PAGE Dec 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.2 ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Operation CONDITIONS NORMAL PROCEDURES DEFINITIONS AND FOD PREVENTION DEFINITIONS Definition of icing conditions for engine anti--icing operation For engine anti--ice system operation, icing conditions exist whenever the outside air temperature (OAT) or static air temperature (SAT) is + 5 degrees C (Plus 5 ° C) (+10 according to FAA AD 96--01--04 R1 and 2008--06--11) or colder and: When anticipating engine anti--ice operation turn on engine anti--ice early. Turning engine anti--ice on well in advance will preheat the surface and thereby prevent ice formation. Turn engine anti--ice on if there is any possibility that icing conditions exist. -- There is any type of visible moisture present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals); or -- When on the ground, there is standing water, slush, or snow (hard packed snow excluded) on the ramps, taxiways or runways. Definition of icing conditions for propeller de--icing system operation For propeller de--ice system operation, icing conditions exist when the OAT or SAT is --5 degrees C (Minus 5 ° C) or colder and any ice accretion is observed on any part of the aircraft. Definition of icing conditions for operation of wing and stabilizer de-- icing boots and for adherence to minimum airspeed and autopilot/flight director limitations for icing conditions For operation of wing and stabilizer de--icing boots and for adherence to minimum airspeed and autopilot/flight director limitations for icing conditions, icing conditions exist when: -- The OAT or SAT is +5 degrees C (Plus 5 ° C) or colder and there is any type of visible moisture present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals); or -- Any amount of ice is observed on any part of the aircraft; or -- If it is not certain that there is no ice accumulation on the aircraft. FOD PREVENTION CAUTION Ice must never be allowed to build up on the engine air intake lips or intake. Once ice formation occurs, turning on anti--ice may free the ice build--up in chunks that could be sucked through the engine compressor, possibly causing Foreign Object Damage (FOD) and a power interruption. DO NOT RELY ON AIRFRAME VISUAL ICING CUES TO TURN ENGINE ANTI--ICE ON. USE THE TEMPERATURE AND VISUAL MOISTURE CRITERIA SPECIFIED FOR ICING CONDITIONS. (Cont’d) 11.2 PAGE Dec 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) Takeoff on RWY with standing water, slush, wet or dry snow When taking off in this condition there is a risk of spray ingestion into the engines. Switch on engine anti--ice when ambient temperature is +5C (+10C according to FAA AD 96--01--04 R1 and 2008--06--11) and below (operation may be restricted by national rules). For a/c with Mod.no 3529 for 340B / 3530 for 340WT Departure when icing conditions on ground and expected icing after lift-off -- When engine anti--ice is selected, before take--off, L/R ENG ANTI--ICE lights on the Flight Status Panel will come on. Use these lights, also as Ice Speed “armed” lights. This is the indication that the stall warning will change (increase) the stall warning triggering airspeeds after 6 minutes from lift--off. ( See also FLIGHT PROCEDURES 25/3 and 25/10 Takeoff briefing and Call-outs). Ice formation discovery during darkness When operationally feasible, switching on the cockpit dome light will increase the possibility of discovering unexpected ice, for example on the wipers. Using the strobe--lights or switching on the landing lights now and then will increase the possibility of identifying unexpected icing conditions. The air inlet can be inspected from the cockpit by use of a flashlight. Operation in and after certain icing conditions During flight through heavy snow, heavy sleet or ice crystals, substantial amounts of ice may be collected on parts of the bird catcher even with a fully functioning engine anti--ice system. This is no problem as long as a positive airflow through the birdcatcher is assured. However, REVERSE POWER OPERATION BELOW 50 KTS (EVEN WITH A FULLY OPEN EXHAUST NOZZLE) AND DURING PROPELLER BRAKE OPERATION WITH A MORE THAN 30 PERCENT ICED--UP (BLOCKED) NOZZLE THE AIRFLOW IS REVERSED THROUGH THE BIRDCATCHER. Such conditions are potentials for ice being sucked into the engine. After encountering such conditions, keep the engine anti--ice system ON for the duration of flight at temperature below +5 C if operationally feasible. Engine anti--ice ON during ground operation after landing will assure that both the air and the walls in the birdcatcher is warmed up. This will expedite the melting of possible ice collected in the birdcatcher. However, if the prevailing temperature is below the freezing point, de--icing of the birdcatcher might be necessary. An inspection of the air intake/birdcatcher for possible residual ice/snow will determine the need for de--icing of the birdcatcher.

On ground, move CL into MIN/MAX range as soon as possible after engine start and switch ON engine anti--ice. CAUTION On the ground, use the officially reported temperature when deciding upon use of engine anti--ice system as temperature on EFIS is normally too high. (Cont’d) 11.2 PAGE Dec 01/15 5 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) NOTE When switching Engine Anti--ice ON or OFF check proper function by observing a decrease or increase in engine torque setting. If no decrease or increase, reduce power to below 88 % Ng, cycle switch (OFF then ON) and then increase to max cruise power to restore proper function. NOTE APPLICABLE TO AIRCRAFT WITH COX INTAKES (Mod No 2095 installed). In extremely cold temperatures L/R INTAKE light may come on after engine anti--ice activation because of the relatively long time to reach working temperature. Selecting the switch to OFF then ON will solve the problem since at this time the intake has been preheated. CAUTION Except for the first 6 minutes after liftoff, make sure to have a speed not less than the published minimum speed with engine Anti--ice ON (speeds with applicable ice increment) before selecting engine Anti--ice ON.

In MAX mode when the temperature is --13 C SAT or colder. CAUTION It is essential to use the correct propeller de--ice mode (NORM or MAX). Turning on propeller de--ice in too warm temperature or using propeller de--ice in wrong mode may cause performance degradation up to 30%. NOTE Increased propeller RPM improves the ice shedding capabilities of propellers and spinners. Therefore, select max PRPM if severe icing conditions are experienced or expected. NOTE If unacceptable propeller vibrations occur in the temperature range --10 C to --12 C SAT due to propeller ice, use MAX mode. If unacceptable vibrations occur at warmer temperatures than --10 C use MAX for a short period until the vibrations disappear.

If observed, increase scanning of the wing. If accumulation of ice on the upper surface aft of the boots is observed, exit the area with these conditions immediately to avoid extended exposure. If the autopilot is engaged, hold the control wheel firmly and disengage the autopilot. Keep the autopilot disengaged until the upper wing surface is free from ice. If an unusual roll response or uncommanded roll control movement is observed, decrease the angle of attack. NOTE For operators under the FAA legislation, triggers for being in SLD conditions are either substantial ice buildup on the spinner, further aft than normally observed and/or ice accumulation on the wing upper surface, aft of protected surface. 2.11 VISUAL CUE OF ICE ACCUMU-LATION Visual cue of ice accumulation The windshield wiper arms give a visual cue of ice accumulation, although airframe ice can be present without any build--up on the wiper arms. Even though the wiper arms are the primary visual cue, accumulation of ice shall be monitored on all visible surfaces. 2.12 STALL WARNING SYSTEM With either of the Engine Anti--ice switches selected ON, the improved stall warning system, with increased stall warning speed trigger levels, will be armed if on ground, and activated in the air. However, activation is inhibited until approximately 6 minutes after lift--off. The activation is indicated by illumination of a blue ICE SPEED p/b on the center instrument panel. With Mod. No. 3529 for 340B / 3530 for 340WT (Improved stall warning system for icing conditions) The increased stall warning level can be deactivated -- After the engine anti--ice system has been switched OFF and; -- There is no ice observed on any part of the aircraft and it is certain that there is no ice accumulated on the aircraft. (Cont’d) 11.2 PAGE Dec 01/15 10 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) -- Deactivation of the system in flight is done by; first switching both Engine Anti--ice switches to OFF and then pressing the illuminated ICE SPEED p/b.

ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION Operation ABNORMAL OPERATION For Abnormal Operation, see also section 23, ABNORMAL PROCEDURES. 3.1 CONDITIONS ABNORMAL PROCEDURES GENERAL General notes applicable to the ice protection systems NOTE In case of unserviceable engine intake anti--icing system, ice may have accumulated in the birdcatcher. Normally the airstream in the birdcatcher will prevent ice to be sucked into the engine compressor. However, reverse power operation below 50 KIAS will cause a reversion in airflow through the birdcatcher. AVOID USE OF REVERSE POWER BELOW 50 KIAS IF OPERATIONALLY FEASIBLE. NOTE After encountering icing conditions with a faulty anti--ice system ice may shed from unheated surfaces. If ice FOD is suspected notify maintenance. NOTE If one engine is shut down with the other engine running, there will be an automatic power transfer to the stopped propeller de--ice system if the propeller de-ice system is kept on. This could create overheat and damage to the propeller protective boot due to less airflow around the stopped propeller. Therefore, switch off the propeller de--ice system of an engine that has been shut down. 11.2 PAGE Dec 01/15 12 Aircraft Operations Manual INSTRUMENTS AND RECORDERS CONTENTS Air Data System 12/1.0 12/1.1 12/1.2 Highlights Description Operation − not applicable Highlights Description Operation − not applicable Clocks 12/2.0 12/2.1 12/2.2 − not applicable Flight Recorder System 12/3.0 12/3.1 12.3.2 Highlights Description Operation − not applicable Cockpit Voice Recorder 12/4.0 12/4.1 12/4.2 Highlights Description Operation − not applicable 12 −CONTENTS PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual INSTRUMENTS AND RECORDERS THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 12 −CONTENTS PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual 1. INSTRUMENTS AND RECORDERS, AIR DATA SYSTEM Description GENERAL The air data system uses three Pitot/Static tubes which senses the pitot and the static pressures and feeds that information to the pneumatic instruments and to the Air Data Computer (ADC). The ADC calculates the various data to be displayed on the electric instruments and EFIS or to be supplied to other systems as shown in Fig. 2. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Pitot/static systems The aircraft is equipped with two main and one standby pitot/static system (Fig. 1). The two main Pitot/Static tubes have two separate static chambers. Each static chamber is interconnected with the corresponding chamber in the other tube. The purpose is to eliminate pressure differences between the two systems. The interconnections are provided with shutoff valves to isolate the systems for example should a static leak appear. The left main tube supplies pitot pressure to the ADC and the right main tube supplies pitot pressure to the pneumatic instruments. The standby Pitot/Static tube has only one static chamber and supplies the standby instruments and the airspeed sensor. All three Pitot/Static tubes are electrically heated to prevent icing. A failure of the heating will light a caution: L, R or STBY PITOT caution light on the overhead panel. Also see 11.1, ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION. The tubes are located as follows: − Left main tube and standby (upper tube) on the left side of the a/c fwd fuselage. − Right main tube on the right side of the a/c fwd fuselage. 2.2 Temperature probe The Outside Air Temperature probe (OAT), senses air temperature for the ADC. The probe is provided with an electrical heater for anti−icing. Also see AOM 11.1, ICE AND RAIN PROTECTION. Should the heater fail, the OAT caution light on the overhead panel will come on. The OAT probe is located on the upper part of the fwd fuselage. 2.3 Air Data Computer (ADC) The ADC senses the air temperature, it also converts the pitot and static pressures into electrical signals from which the ADC calculates the various parameters. These parameters are: − − − − − − Altitude (ALT). Vertical speed (VS). Indicated airspeed (IAS). True airspeed (TAS). Maximum operating speed (VMO). Static air temperature (SAT). These parameters are available as digital values and analogue signals and are supplied to many systems as shown in Fig. 2. The ADC calculates the VMO and triggers the master warning system to give an overspeed warning when the speed exceeds VMO by 2 kt. 2.4 Instruments These are two different types of indicators: − Electromechanical (servo) indicators for the left pilot, supplied with data from ADC. − Pneumatic indicators for the right pilot and for standby instruments, supplied directly with pitot and/or static pressures. Altimeters The ADC supplies information of uncorrected altitude to the electromechanical altimeter. The altimeter converts this information into a display, corrected for the barometer pressure, set by a baroknob on the instrument. The display shows both a five numerical digital readout and an analogue pointer with a smallest scale increment of 20 ft. The corrected altitude is also supplied to the altitude preselector/alerter. The altimeter also contains an encoder that furnishes the ATC transponders with aircraft altitude information related to 1013 mb/2991 inHg. The pneumatic altimeters are equipped with an aneroid which converts static pressure into a mechanical movement of the counter and pointer. Correction for barometer pressure is set with a baro knob on each instrument. The display is the same as for the electromechanical altimeter.

The speed information is converted and displayed by two pointers which indicates IAS and VMO against a non−linear scale for maximum accuracy. Static Air Temperature and True Air Speed are determined by the ADC and displayed on the EHSI’s. Both airspeed indicators are provided with airspeed reference bugs that can be set as reminders. As an option a servodriven bug can be included in the L IAS indicator. The bug is used to select speed for the FD/AP when flying in IAS mode. Also see 3.1 AUTOFLIGHT. The set value also goes to a circuitry in the indicator determining the difference between selected and actual speed. This difference is displayed as a Fast− Slow deviation indication on the EADI. The pneumatic airspeed indicators are connected directly to the pitot and static pressures. The right airspeed indicator has two pointers indicating IAS and VMO. The indicator is also provided with airspeed reference bugs that can be set as reminders. The indicator also gives overspeed warning as a backup for the ADC overspeed warning. The standby airspeed indicator gives only IAS indication. Vertical speed indicator Altitude Preselector Alerter The Altitude Preselector Alerter (APA) system alerts the flight crew when the aircraft is approaching, or deviating from, a selected altitude. The alert announcement is both aural and visual. The APA is supplied with barometer corrected altitude from the servo altimeter. The barometer corrections made by the altimeter baroset knob thus also affects the APA. The altitude for which an alert announcement is desired is set with the ALT SET knob on the altitude preselector on the glareshield panel. The aural warning is produced by the WEU. The system is interconnected with the FD/AP to provide selected altitude for the ALTS mode. Also see AOM 3, AUTOFLIGHT. Airspeed Sensor The airspeed sensor is supplied from the standby pitot/static tube. The sensor converts the pressures into electrical IAS signals which it provides to the AHRS and Rudder Limiter systems. The Rudder Limiter system uses this IAS as an accurancy check of the Airdata computer provided IAS signal. The electromechanical vertical speed indicator displays vertical speed which has been determined and supplied by the ADC. The pneumatic indicator converts change in static pressure into a proportional vertical speed. Vertical navigation indicator (Optional) This instrument has two functions: − To serve as an indicator displaying vertical speed as determined by the ADC. − To compute data for vertical navigation. These data are either used to feed the FD/AP for automatic capture of the vertical path or to be displayed to aid in a manual capture of the aiming point. Vertical navigation is described in AOM 3.1 AUTOFLIGHT. 12/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 5 Aircraft Operations Manual INSTRUMENTS AND RECORDERS, AIR DATA SYSTEM Description THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 12/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 6 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

INSTRUMENTS AND RECORDERS, FLIGHT RECORDER SYSTEM Description 2.2 GENERAL The Flight Recorder system consists of four units: − The Flight Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) that collects and arranges the data; − The Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) that records the data on a magnetic tape; − The Flight Recorder panel with monitoring lights; − The triaxial accelerometer. The Flight Recorder system becomes powered and and starts to operate as soon as one engine is running and one generator on line. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Flight Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) The FDAU, installed in the avionics rack, samples data from various sensors and systems according to a prearranged program which includes different sampling rates for various parameters. Parameters prone to high rate of change consequently have the highest sampling rate while, for example, switch positions are sampled with a low rate. Analogue parameters are converted into digital numbers and all parameters are formatted into a data stream in which each data word has its fixed location. The word can thus be easily found on the recorder tape and recovered for analysis on ground, for example transcribed into more conveniently readable form, altitude in feet etc. Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) This is a recorder with a crashproof tape magazine installed in the rear compartment. The recorder uses magnetic tape and is of the continuous type which means that all data is recorded in a continuous stream. However, the recorder can not hold more data than that corresponding to approximately 25 flight hours. When the tape is filled up, the oldest data is therefore automatically erased and new data entered instead. The tape may therefore be looked upon as an endless band, holding information from the last 25 flight hours. To prevent unintentional blanking of recorded data during ground stops or at maintenance, a relay controlled by either engine oil pressure switches off the Flight Recorder when engines are not running. The recorder unit is provided with an underwater locator beacon, automatically started when submerged in water. It is battery powered and transmits an acoustic signal for 30 days. The recorder has a feature that allows the tape to be played back on ground for dumping of flight data. 2.3 Flight Recorder Panel The panel is provided with caution lights for DFDR or FDAU failures and also an Event pushbutton to mark events during aircraft operation. 2.4 Triaxial accelerometer The accelerometer provides the system with data for vertical, longitudinal and lateral axis. 12/3.1 STANDARD A/C 160 − 250 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 S1 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

INSTRUMENTS AND RECORDERS, FLIGHT RECORDER SYSTEM Description 2.2 GENERAL The Flight Recorder system consists of four units: − The Flight Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) that collects and arranges the data; − The Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) that records the data on a magnetic tape; − The Flight Data Entry Panel (FDEP) for insertion of documentary data and monitoring lights. − The triaxial accelerometer. The Flight Recorder system becomes powered and and starts to operate as soon as one engine is running and one generator on line. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Flight Data Acquisition Unit (FDAU) The FDAU, installed in the avionics rack, samples data from various sensors and systems according to a prearranged program which includes different sampling rates for various parameters. Parameters prone to high rate of change consequently have the highest sampling rate while, for example, switch positions are sampled with a low rate. Analogue parameters are converted into digital numbers and all parameters are formatted into a data stream in which each data word has its fixed location. The word can thus be easily found on the recorder tape and recovered for analysis on ground, for example transcribed into more conveniently readable form, altitude in feet etc. Digital Flight Data Recorder (DFDR) This is a recorder with a crashproof tape magazine installed in the rear compartment. The recorder uses magnetic tape and is of the continuous type which means that all data is recorded in a continuous stream. However, the recorder can not hold more data than that corresponding to approximately 25 flight hours. When the tape is filled up, the oldest data is therefore automatically erased and new data entered instead. The tape may therefore be looked upon as an endless band, holding information from the last 25 flight hours. To prevent unintentional blanking of recorded data during ground stops or at maintenance, a relay controlled by either engine oil pressure, switches off the Flight Recorder when engines are not running. The recorder unit is provided with an underwater locator beacon, automatically started when submerged in water. It is battery powered and transmits an acoustic signal for 30 days. The recorder has a feature that allows the tape to be played back on ground and for dumping of flight data. 2.3 Flight Data Entry Panel (FDEP) The FDEP is provided with thumb wheel switches and a pushbutton for selection and insert of flight data to be recorded on the tape. The panel is also provided with caution lights for DFDR or FDAU failures and also an Event pushbutton to mark events during aircraft operation. 2.4 Triaxial accelerometer The accelerometer provides the system with data for vertical, longitudinal and lateral axis. 12/3.1 OPTION A/C 160 − 250 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 O1 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

It is battery powered and transmits an acoustic signal for 30 days. The recorder has a feature that allows the tape to be played back on ground and for dumping of flight data. 2.3 Flight Data Entry Panel (FDEP) The FDEP is provided with thumb wheel switches and a pushbutton for selection and insert of flight data to be recorded on the tape. The panel is also provided with caution lights for DFDR or FDAU failures and also an Event pushbutton to mark events during aircraft operations. The FDEP also has a MEM light to indicate that the FDAU/ETM memory storage capacity is 80% full. The FDAU, installed in the avionics rack, samples data from various sensors and systems according to a prearranged program which includes different sampling rates for various parameters. Parameters prone to high rate of change consequently have the highest sampling rate while, for example, switch positions are sampled with a low rate.

Event Marker Report The accelerometer provides the system with data for vertical, longitudinal and lateral axis. 2.5 Engine Trend Monitoring A totally independent function is also available in the FDAU. This independently operating microprocessor controlled feature samples certain parameters available through the existing ”normal” FDAU processing and decides when certain conditions are met to sample engine performance. This function is normally referred to as Engine Trend Monitoring (ETM) and the following ETM conditions are monitored: The ETM function can store up to 30 takeoff and cruise reports (i.e. 15 flights), 20 event marker and 20 exceedance reports. Subsequent reports will overwrite the oldest reports stored. When 80% of available memory capacity is used up (i.e. 24 ”normal” flights), the FDAU will activate a MEMory light on the Flight Data Entry Panel. This light only serves to alert the crew of impending memory overwrite and subsequent loss of old data. 12/3.1 OPTION A/C 251 − up PAGE Apr 01/15 1 O2 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

GENERAL The aircraft is equipped with a conventional retractable landing gear. The main gears are located in the engine nacelles and the nose gear in the forward fuselage. All gears retract forward. Each gear is equipped with dual wheels. Normal landing gear operation is by hydraulic power but in an emergency the gear can be extended by free fall or by use of the hydraulic hand pump. Indications are provided for gear down and locked and for any landing gear/gear handle disagreement. All main wheels have disc brakes. An anti−skid system automatically modulates the brake pressure for maximum braking efficiency. The nose gear is steerable by a wheel located on the left pilot’s side panel. A ground sensing system with incorporated weight on wheel switches (WOW) establishes ground or flight mode operation for various systems. An optional removable tail supporting strut that attaches to the under side of the rear fuselage is available. The strut prevents damage to the rear fuselage of the aircraft if it contacts the ground should the center of gravity move aft of the main gear. A stowage for the strut is provided under the flap of the cargo compartment floor. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Landing gear extension/retraction (Fig. 2) All gears retract forward into their respective wheel wells. The gears are retained in up or down position by locks. Manually inserted lock pins ensure downlocking during ground operation. The landing gear doors are mechanically controlled by each gear. The main gear doors are partly closed, and the nose wheel doors are fully open, when the landing gear is extended. The gears are extended/retracted in normal mode and can also be extended in emergency mode. LANDING GEAR Description Normal extension/retraction With gear UP selected, an electrically operated control valve ports hydraulic pressure to release the downlocks and pressurize the hydraulic actuators. A mechanical lock on the landing gear control handle prevents selection of gear up on ground. In flight, this lock is disengaged by a solenoid. Should the solenoid fail, the handle can be released by pressing the DOWN LOCK REL button to the left of the gear handle. When the gears are up, an up− lock hook will engage a roller on the gears and retain them in the retracted position. With gear DN selected, hydraulic pressure is ported to the uplocks and hydraulic actuators. As soon as the gears are fully extended, the downlocks will engage. Indicators The landing gear indicators consist of three green lights on the gear handle unit and an amber light in the gear handle knob. The lights are controlled by the position of the handle and by the downlock and uplock switches. Emergency extension If normal extension of the landing gear is not successful the hand pump can be used for extension. By setting the hand pump selector in center position (FLAPS LDG GR) and gear handle selected down, hydraulic pressure is ported to the MAIN HYDR accumulator which in turn pressurizes the uplocks and hydraulic actuators. In case of hydraulic failure, the gear may be extended by free fall. By pulling the landing gear emergency extension handle in the cockpit floor, the gear actuator hydraulic pressure lines will be connected to the return lines to prevent hydraulic lock. Emergency accumulator pressure will then release the uplocks and the gear will extend and lock by gravity and aerodynamic forces. The position of the landing gear control handle has no effect on an emergency extension, except that the Amber disagreement light will come on indicating a disagreement between landing gear and gear handle if the handle is left in up position. To aid free fall of the main landing gear at an emergency extension the gear door mechanism is dis- 13.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 Aircraft Operations Manual connected from the gear, leaving the doors in fully open position. The disconnection is made by an explosive separation bolt that is electrically activated by the emergency extension handle when pulled. The electrical circuits are deactivated on ground. NOTE If the landing gear was emergency extended due to loss of hydraulic pressure/fluid or a fault in the landing gear control valve, the nose wheel steering will be inoperative. When retracting the gear, the indications are as follows: − When gear UP is selected, the amber disagreement light in the gear handle knob will come on to indicate disagreement between the handle and gear positions. After a few seconds the green downlock lights go out. − When the gear is up and locked, the light in the gear handle knob goes off. When extending the gear, the indications are as follows: − If all gears are up and the gear handle is UP, there is no light indication. − When gear DN is selected the disagreement light in the gear handle knob comes on to indicate initial disagreement between handle position and actual position of gear. − When a gear is down and locked, the respective green downlock light comes on. When all three gears are down and locked the amber gear handle disagreement light goes out. During emergency extension, the green down locked gear lights come on irrespective of gear handle position. The amber disagreement light goes out when the gear handle is selected down. The integrity of the indicator lights is tested by pressing the test button on the gear handle unit. 2.2 Brakes (Fig. 1) The main landing gear wheels are fitted with self− adjusting hydraulic disc brakes. There are two brake circuits − one for the outboard and one for the inboard brakes. Each circuit has its LANDING GEAR Description own accumulator. Hydraulic pressure is normally supplied by the electrical hydraulic pump but the hand pump may be used as an alternative. The different brake functions are: − Normal braking (anti−skid). − Emergency braking (anti−skid). − Parking brake. Normal braking Braking is controlled by the rudder pedals in the conventional manner. Each pedal is connected to one outboard and one inboard brake power valve and, consequently, each brake has its own power valve. The four power valves are installed on a common assembly in the nose wheel well ceiling. An anti−skid system modulates brake pressure for maximum braking efficiency. The system consists of an anti−skid control box, one wheel speed transducer on each main wheel, two anti−skid valves and an anti−skid ON/OFF switch on the hydraulic panel in the center pedestal. The anti−skid system also incorporates ”Touchdown Protection”. This function prevents braking whilst in flight in order to avoid landing with braked wheels and consequent damage to the tyres. In order to obtain braking with anti−skid protection the following is required: − Anti−skid switch ON and (for each circuit) − appropriate power lever (see Fig. 1) below flight idle, plus 3 seconds delay or − appropriate left or right weight on wheel switch (see Fig. 1) activated to ”ground” position, plus 3 seconds delay or − average wheelspeed over 50 kts. NOTE The activation logics for the inboard and outboard circuits are independent. Throughout the landing roll, the wheel speed transducers send signals via the control box to the anti− skid valves which modulate the brake pressure. Should a skid begin, e.g. on an inboard wheel, 13.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 Aircraft Operations Manual brake pressure is reduced for both inboard brakes since they are connected to the same circuit. Similarly, a skid on an outboard wheel will reduce brake pressure to both outboard brakes. There is also a locked wheel protection which dumps the brake pressure in a brake circuit should the wheel speeds in the circuit differ by more than 50%. When aircraft speed has decreased to about 20 kts the anti−skid system cuts out and braking must then be modulated manually. The anti−skid control box circuits and the wheel speed transducers are continuously monitored for proper functioning. If any parameter exceeds its established limits, the A−SKID INOP light on the central warning panel comes on. The light also comes on if the anti−skid switch is OFF when the gear is extended before landing. This alerts the pilot to an incorrect switch position. Emergency braking Emergency braking must be used if the hydraulic pump is inoperative. Hydraulic pressure is then available only from the brake accumulators or from the hand pump. The same controls are used for emergency brake application as for normal braking. The anti−skid function is maintained since accumulator capacity is sufficient for more than one complete landing sequence. Parking brake The parking brake is controlled by a handle on the left pilot’ s side panel. By pulling the handle and then depressing the brake pedals, hydraulic pressure is trapped in the system by means of a parking brake valve closing the return line when the trapped pressure exceeds the brake valve set pressure of 1500 psi. The brake valve will remain closed and the handle remains in pulled (up) position as long as the trapped pressure exceeds 950 psi. If pressure decreases below 950 psi the valve will automatically open and relieve remaining pressure to the return line. The handle remains in the pulled (up) position.The brake handle can be locked in the pulled position by turning the handle approximately 30 clockwise. LANDING GEAR Description A PARK BRK ON (CWP) light comes on when applying the parking brake and the trapped pressure exceeds 1700 psi. Once illuminated, the light will stay on as long as the trapped pressure remains above 900 psi. NOTE There is a possibility to set the brakes (handle is up) without the CWP light coming on if the pressure is just high enough to close the valve (1500 psi) but below the CWP light−on triggering pressure (1700 psi). Therefore, check CWP light coming on when parking brake is set. The parking brake is disengaged by turning the handle approximately 30 counter−clockwise and pushing down. 2.3 Nose wheel steering (Fig. 3) Nose wheel steering is hydraulic and operated by a single hydraulic actuator. The steering system is operative on ground only and is controlled by a wheel on the left pilot’ s side panel. Maximum steering deflection is 60 left or right. To steer, the wheel must first be pushed down to engage mechanically with the steering system and to complete the electrical circuit to open the steering shutoff valve. When towing, maximum deflection is 120 or 90, depending on mod status, as indicated on the nose gear. A ground handling lockout switch in the nosewheel well is used to deactivate the steering system during towing. If the nosewheel is deflected more than 20 5 without the steering wheel being pushed down or ground handling lockout switch is closed, a solenoid steering brake will lock the wheel in its present position, and engage the nose wheel steering system preventing further deflection. In flight the nosewheel is automatically centered by cams in the shock strut. 2.4 Landing Gear switches/relays There are two air/ground (WOW) switches located on each main gear and one downlock and one uplock switch on each gear. These switches are 13.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 3 Aircraft Operations Manual LANDING GEAR Description used to control various air/ground functions in different systems. Some of the systems receive signals from the WOW and up− and downlock switches via the landing gear relays. These systems are marked with an asterisk. The relays are supplied with 28 VDC via the LDG RELAYS circuit breaker. Air/ground (WOW) switches − LEFT OUTBOARD SWITCH: Anti−Skid (left and right outboard wheels).

NOTE When HYD PRESS approaches the recharge level (2100 psi) the force to control the nosewheel steering might increase substantially. Consider to place the HYDR PUMP temporarily into OVRD to increase pressure. CAUTION Avoid sharp turns at high speed or sharp turns assisted by differential power or braking.The nose wheel may swing around 180 degrees. Only differential power sufficient to maintain speed in turns is permissible. Backing − Slow backing of the aircraft is permissible, start backing by depressing the nose steering wheel and apply reverse power as required. Keep the nose steering wheel depressed and limit the steering to approx. 45 degrees deflection either side on the nose steering wheel. Stop backing by advancing the Power Levers to forward power as required. − If the nose steering wheel is not depressed there is a possibility for the nose wheel to swing uncontrolled 20 degrees either side. − Depressing the nose steering wheel with a deflection limit of 45 degrees either side will prevent the nose wheel to be mechanically forced to swing around 180 degrees. Parking When parking, maintain a straight path for the last few feet to relieve stress in the landing gear. 13.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 3 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.3 LANDING GEAR Operation CONDITIONS NORMAL PROCEDURES OPERATION OF BRAKE SYSTEM Preflight check 1.

CHECK − Brake smoothly during initial taxiing to verify brake operation. − Use the following braking technique when taxiing: Light braking will often activate the brakes unevenly due to system tolerances. This may cause overheating of the most active brakes. To achieve a more even loadsharing between the four brakes, it is advisable to let the aircraft accelerate to a speed slightly higher than desired and then momentarily apply the brakes rather firmly with due regard to passenger comfort.

NAVIGATION, EFIS Description puter, the Display Processor Unit (DPU) which executes the orders by generating the necessary signals to display the required information. GENERAL The Electronic Flight Instrument System, EFIS, is as the name implies a system that uses cathode ray tubes (CRT) for displaying such flight and navigation data normally found on the Attitude Director Indicator, ADI, and the Horizontal Situation Indicator, HSI. Consequently, the corresponding electronic display tubes are called EADI (E=Electronic) and EHSI. There are two such systems installed and they are interconnected with a crosstalk channel in order to provide transfer of data from one side to the other in case of one side data failure (XSIDE DATA). Each DPU can also take over the display of the opposite side if the opposite side DPU fails (DRIVE XFR). Type of display information is selected via the Display Control Panel (DCP).

MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.3 2.1 Display Processor Unit, DPU The two panels, one for each side are used to select and control the information displayed on the EADI and EHSI. The DPU receives data from the digital data busses as well as from the analogue data busses. It selects data required for the displays and transfers them to an output circuitry that generates right type of alphanumerical text, symbols and color combination needed for the display. The following systems interface with the DPU by digital/analogue busses for display of their information. − Radio altimeter . . . . Radio height, DH − Air data computer . .

They have three electronic guns, one for each basic color, red−blue−green, which, when combined, give the desired color and display symbols. 2.4 Display Control Panel, DCP Course Heading Panel, CHP The Course Heading Panel is used to select desired heading and also to set selected course (CRS 1 and CRS 2), displayed on EHSI. 2.5 EFIS switches There are two EFIS switches on each EFIS panel (Overhead panel). These switches are used in case of system failure. The displayed information on the EADI and EHSI can be switched to one of either (EADI or EHSI) as composite mode information if any EADI/EASI should fail (ADI REV/HSI REV). They can also transfer opposite side data to onside if onside data should fail (XSIDE DATA). If the drive signals (DPU) for the EADI/EHSI fails on one side, the opposite side DPU can provide drive signals (DRIVE XFR) for the failed side. The left side switches are used to preserve displays on left side EADI/EHSI and vice versa. NOTE Comparator caution is inhibited when DRIVE XFR is selected. Pitch, roll and heading comparator caution is inhibited when XSIDE DATA is selected. 2.6 Nav source selection pushbuttons Two pushbuttons, NAV S L and NAV S R, are located on the glareshield panel. They are used to select left or right nav source for the FD/AP, displayed on EADI (FD command bar and modes). 2.7 EFIS test panel Two switches (EFIS 1 and 2) located on the overhead panel (TEST 2 panel) are used to test various functions on EFIS. 15/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 S Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

In such a case it is switched in by the EFIS switches (DRIVE XFR). 2.4 Multifunction Display unit, MFD The technique to produce the picture is the same as for the EADI/EHSI. However, this display unit is provided with several switches and pushbuttons for control and selection of displayed information. 2.5 Display Control Panel, DCP The two panels, one for each side are used to select and control the information displayed on the EADI and EHSI. 2.6 Course Heading Panel, CHP The Course Heading Panel is used to select desired heading and also to set selected course (CRS 1 and CRS 2), displayed on EHSI. 2.7 EFIS switches There are two EFIS switches on each EFIS panel (Overhead panel). These switches are used in case of system failure. The displayed information on the EADI and EHSI can be switched to one of either (EADI or EHSI) as composite mode information if any EADI/EASI should fail (ADI REV/HSI REV). They can also transfer opposite side data to onside if onside data should fail (XSIDE DATA). If the drive signals (DPU) for the EADI/EHSI fails on any side, the MPU can provide drive signals (DRIVE XFR). The left side switches are used to preserve displays on left side EADI/EHSI and vice versa. 2.8 Nav source selection pushbuttons Two pushbuttons, NAV S L and NAV S R, are located on the glareshield panel. They are used to select left or right nav source for the FD/AP, displayed on EADI (FD command bar and modes). 2.9 EFIS test panel Two switches (EFIS 1 and 2) located on the overhead panel are used to test various functions on EFIS. 15/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 O Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, EFIS Description THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 15/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 20 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, EFIS Description INTRODUCTION OF MAP MODE Compared with a standard VOR pointer with deviation bar, the MAP mode offers a visual presentation on the EHSI which can also include weather radar presentation. The MAP mode displays the received VOR/DME stations distance and radial as an octagonal shaped symbol in RHO−THETA position (distance and radial) with respect to the aircrafts actual position. The selected NAV/DME:s station ident code will be displayed next to the station symbol. A courseline is drawn solid on the TO side of the VOR symbol and dashed on the FROM side. The VOR deviation indication displayed on the EADI is similar to a standard VOR deviation bar i.e. full deviation scale equal to 10 degrees. If RNAV Installed and displayed in MAP mode, the RNAV determined waypoint will be presented as a star shaped symbol but without any ident code. The RNAV waypoint symbol will also start to flash prior to waypoint passage. By adding weather radar information to the MAP mode, the flight path may be planned with respect to current weather situation. The MAP mode may also be used to visually set up a proper intercept point to next VOR. IMPORTANT In MAP mode, the station symbol with courseline and ident code will not be displayed if: a. Selected NAV source is only a VOR or only a DME station (both VOR and DME required). b. DME is set to DME HOLD. 15/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 21 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, EFIS Description THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 15/1.1 PAGE Apr 01/15 22 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, EFIS Description L SIDE MAP MODE L DCP DH 170 HDG 20 F 10 20 20 ROSE RA TST T ET 02:23 TTG 19.0 ANG 3 50 092 160 VOR 1 VOR 2 D 45.5 D 63.2 5 MAP MODE WITH WEATHER RADAR -19C TAS 193 GSP 182 T 7 ANG WX 8 12.5 160 092 VOR 1 VOR 2 D 10.3 D 53.6 ET Fig. 12 BRG DEV 6 ROSE 2ND CRS RA TST 2 1 Set mode selector in any of the six SECTOR positions. 2 Enter MAP mode by momentarily push DEV button. 3 The range arc is controlled by the sector positions; 5, 25, 100, 200, 300, 600 Nm and indicates half of the selected distance. 4 VOR1 deviation symbol, full scale equal to 10 degrees.

NAVIGATION, ADF Description 2.3 GENERAL Receiver The Automatic Direction Finder, ADF, detects the relative bearing to a selected radio station (NDB). The frequency range for selection is 190 to 1749,5 kHz. The receiver consists principally of two parts, the normal radio and audio amplifiers for the station signals and a circuitry to determine the direction to the station. The radio bearing is combined with the magnetic compass indication on the Radio Magnetic Indicator (RMI) which thus indicates the magnetic bearing to the selected ADF station. The ADF bearing can also be indicated on the EHSI. 2.4 If two systems are installed they are completely separated. The bearing indication is displayed by RMI pointers. Single pointer indicates ADF 1 and double pointer indicates ADF 2. L EHSI ADF pointer indicates ADF 1 bearing and R EHSI ADF pointer indicates ADF 2 bearing. With only one system installed all ADF pointers will indicate the ADF 1 bearing. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Antenna There is a dual antenna installed on the top of the fuselage. The antenna is of the integrated type i.e. it contains a loop and a sense antenna. A dual amplifier provides two independent outputs to the ADF receivers. 2.2 System function When in the normal mode (ADF), the signals from the selected station are routed to the audio integrating system and can be heard as an identification signal. The signals are also routed to a circuit that determines the bearing to the station. In ANT mode the loop antenna output is disabled and the result is only audio without bearing indication. In TONE mode unmodulated signals (Continuous Wave, CW) are received and identified. By using the ADF switch on the RMI, the ADF bearing indication can be displayed on the RMI. With the BRG button on the display control panel (DCP) the ADF bearing indication can be displayed on the EHSI or deselected from the EHSI.

NAVIGATION, VOR/ILS/MARKER Description GENERAL The VOR/ILS Marker system receives signals from the selected station (VOR or ILS) and presents them as navigation information on EFIS, RMI and a VOR/ILS indicator. This information is also sent to the FD/AP as guidance for navigation and approach. The station identification signal as well as the Marker signals can be heard over the audio integrating system. This function, reception and generation of indicator and guidance data, is performed by the navigation receiver. There are two such systems installed (only one marker system, part of NAV 1 is used). The distribution of data is shown in Fig. 1. The VOR or ILS frequencies are selected on the two control units, located on the glareshield panel. When a VOR or ILS frequency is selected, the DME frequency, if paired to that station, is also automatically selected.

MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYTEMS 2.1 Control unit The control unit can display two frequencies, one active that tunes the receiver and one as standby which easily can be made active. The unit is provided with the necessary controls for frequency −and transfer selection. A selected DME station can be retained by a HOLD mode and a new VOR/ ILS or DME frequency can be tuned without affecting DME function. A programmable Memory facility is also contained in the control unit. The Memory provides four preprogrammed frequencies. To select a Memory frequency, simply step through the Memory by, operating the XFR/MEM switch momentarily in MEM position. 2.2 Navigation receiver The navigation receiver contains circuitry for the VOR, ILS (Localizer and glideslope) and marker functions. VOR Both a frequency and the course (CRS) to a station has to be selected. The receiver then compares the received radial with the selected course and calculates the deviation. The selected course and deviation is displayed on the EHSI and on the VOR/ILS indicator. The deviation is Angular presented, as announced on the EHSI by the letters ANG. The RMI will display magnetic bearing to the received VOR station. − Angular means that the displayed deviation represents the angle between aircraft and selected radial and is thus unaffected of distance. TO and FROM indication is determined by the system from the selected course with respect to the received radial. The magnetic information for the presentation of the course is received from the Attitude Heading Refer- ence System (AHRS). See AOM 15/8.1. The VOR receiver also generates a flag signal which, in case of failure or no reception of selected station, displays VOR in red on EFIS and a red NAV flag on the VOR/ILS indicator. The flag also drives the RMI VOR pointers to a 3 o’clock parking position. ILS When an ILS frequency is selected, both the localizer and the glideslope receivers are tuned to that frequency. The receivers determinate the aircraft movements with respect to received localizer and glideslope signals and with selected localizer inbound course (CRS 1/CRS 2 knobs). The aircraft movements are then converted into direct proportional localizer and glideslope deviations. The localizer and glideslope deviations and displayed on the EADI and EHSI by LOC and GS symbols and on the VOR/ILS indicator, by localizer and glideslope bars. Marker The marker system receives the signals from the marker beacon stations and determines which type of marker is present. The station signals are then modulates and presented on the EADI as follows: − 400 Hz for outer marker (CYAN). − 1300 Hz for middle marker (AMBER). − 3000 Hz for inner (airway) marker (WHITE). The marker audio signals are filtered out and made audible via the audio integrating system. 2.3 Antennas − A dual antenna is used for the VOR/LOC signals. It is located on top of the fin. − A dual antenna is also used for the glideslope signals. This antenna is installed inside the nose radome. − The marker signals are received by an antenna mounted on the bottom of the fuselage just forward of the wing. 15/3.1 COLLINS PRO LINE II PAGE Apr 01/15 2 C Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

This information is also sent to the FD/AP as guidance for navigation and approach. The station identification signal as well as the Marker signals can be heard over the audio integrating system. This function, reception and generation of indicator and guidance data, is performed by the navigation receiver. There are two such systems installed (only one marker system, part of NAV 1 is used). The distribution of data is shown in Fig. 1. The VOR or ILS frequencies are selected on the two control units, located on the glareshield panel. When a VOR or ILS frequency is selected, the DME frequency, if paired to that station, is also automatically selected.

MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYTEMS 2.1 Control unit The control unit can display two frequencies, one active that tunes the receiver and one as standby which easily can be made active. The unit is provided with the necessary controls for frequency −and transfer selection. A selected DME station can be retained by a HOLD mode and a new VOR/ ILS or DME frequency can be tuned without affecting DME function. A programmable Memory facility is also contained in the control unit. The Memory provides nine pre− programmed frequencies, by momentarily pressing the CHAN button and thereafter, choose frequency by means of the Frequency selector. 2.2 Navigation receiver The navigation receiver contains circuitry for the VOR, ILS (Localizer and glideslope) and marker functions. VOR Both a frequency and the course (CRS) to a station has to be selected. The receiver then compares the received radial with the selected course and calculates the deviation. The selected course and deviation is displayed on the EHSI and on the VOR/ILS indicator. The deviation is Angular presented, as announced on the EHSI by the letters ANG. The RMI will display magnetic bearing to the received VOR station. − Angular means that the displayed deviation represents the angle between aircraft and selected radial and is thus unaffected of distance. TO and FROM indication is determined by the system from the selected course with respect to the received radial. The magnetic information for the presentation of the course is received from the Attitude Heading Refer- ence System (AHRS). See AOM 15/8.1. The VOR receiver also generates a flag signal which, in case of failure or no reception of selected station, displays VOR in red on EFIS and a red NAV flag on the VOR/ILS indicator. The flag also drives the RMI VOR pointers to a 3 o’clock parking position. ILS When an ILS frequency is selected, both the localizer and the glideslope receivers are tuned to that frequency. The receivers determinate the aircraft movements with respect to received localizer and glideslope signals and with selected localizer inbound course (CRS 1/CRS 2 knobs). The aircraft movements are then converted into direct proportional localizer and glideslope deviations. The localizer and glideslope deviations and displayed on the EADI and EHSI by LOC and GS symbols and on the VOR/ILS indicator, by localizer and glideslope bars. Marker The marker system receives the signals from the marker beacon stations and determines which type of marker is present. The station signals are then modulates and presented on the EADI as follows: − 400 Hz for outer marker (CYAN). − 1300 Hz for middle marker (AMBER). − 3000 Hz for inner (airway) marker (WHITE). The marker audio signals are filtered out and made audible via the audio integrating system. 2.3 Antennas − A dual antenna is used for the VOR/LOC signals. It is located on top of the fin. − A dual antenna is also used for the glideslope signals. This antenna is installed inside the nose radome. − The marker signals are received by an antenna mounted on the bottom of the fuselage just forward of the wing. 15/3.1 KING MEMORY PAGE Apr 01/15 2 KO Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

In a 30 second period, the DME identification signal is thus transmitted once and the VOR or ILS localizer signal 3 times. 5.

NAVIGATION, DME Description GENERAL The Distance Measuring Equipment, DME, provides slant distance to a ground station. The DME station does not have to be specially selected if it is paired with a selected ILS or VOR station. The Distance is displayed on the EHSI together with Groundspeed and Time To Go, both calculated from the DME information. Distance, Groundspeed and Time To Go is also displayed on a DME indicator (if installed). 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Transceiver The frequency information is received from the VOR/ILS/Marker control unit as a serial data stream which is transferred into a frequency control circuitry that tunes both the transmitter and the receiver. The airborne system interrogates a ground station by transmitting squitter pulses which are returned as reply puls pairs by the ground station after a fixed delay time equal for all stations. The airborne system can distinguish the replay as its own signals form other aircraft replays and measure the time difference between transmitted and received signal and thus determine the distance. This distance, the straight line between the aircraft and the ground station, is the slant range. Time To Go and Groundspeed are both calculated and based upon the rate of change of DME distance. The inhibit circuits of the ATC transponder and DME systems are interconnected in order to avoid interference between the DME and the transponder. The DME is inhibited when the transponder transmits and vice versa. 2.2 Control unit DME controls is provided by the NAV control unit. When a VOR/ILS frequency is selected the DME frequency, if paired to that station, is also selected. The DME frequency can also be Held in order to select a new VOR/ILS or DME frequency without affecting the previous selected DME station.

NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description GENERAL The aircraft is provided with an airborne radar system which is used mainly for avoidance of severe weather but can also be used for ground mapping. The system will detect and present weather conditions in an angle of 90 degrees and to the range of 300 NM in front of the aircraft. Flight hazards due to weather conditions are primarily the result of turbulence and hail. Wet hail can be detected by radar, but turbulent air by itself will not provide a radar echo. (Examples are clear−air turbulence and aircraft vortices.) Areas having high rainfall rates are ordinarily associated with turbulence, and it is from this rainfall that radar echoes are reflected and the accompanying turbulence associated with the rainfall is implied. Small areas with extremely heavy rainfall rate or large areas of moderate rainfall rate can reduce the ability of the radar waves to penetrate and present a full picture of the weather area. This may mask or cause strong targets at a farther range to appear much less intense than they actually are. Always assume that all weather behind another is at least one level higher than what’s being presented on the radar picture. Proper use of the GAIN and TILT controls will aid the user in interpreting the displayed targets. The receiver transmitter unit generates microwave energy in the form of pulses. These pulses are then transferred to the antenna where they are focused into a beam by the antenna. The radar beam is much like the beam of a flashlight. The energy is focused and radiated by the antenna in such a way that it is most intense in the center of the beam with decreasing intensity near the edge. The same antenna is used for both transmitting and receiving. When a pulse intercepts a target, the moisture (rain drops and ice) present in clouds in front of the airRADAR antenna craft, reflects some of this energy to the antenna. The reflected energy provides a measure of moisture intensity which is converted into a color code. The radar color picture will therefore represent a cross section of the cloud situation in front of the aircraft. Even though the color code corresponds to a certain amount of moisture, rain and ice, bear in mind that the radar beam will also be reflected by the ground surface, mountains etc. Therefore the pilot must know his position before relying on the radar picture being just weather. The Weather Radar is a three color display system and the picture can be presented on the EHSI and the MFD (if installed). The weather radar is not a go/no go signal, it is a weather analysis instrument and must be used in conjunction with a knowledge of the atmospheric conditions. It should never be used to make a decision to fly through a convective weather system, but as a guide of how far to circumnavigate it. 1.1 Operational Modes Normal weather detection (NORM−position) The signals representing echos from targets on different ranges are treated with a Sensitivity Time Control, STC, which means that the target intensity remains relatively constant for close−in ranges. The radar beam power is higher but with lower resolution than for ground mapping. Detectable weather is color coded with the black screen representing no detectable moisture, while detectable weather appears as one of three colors: green, yellow, or red (least reflective to most reflective).

The T will start to flash and alert the pilot if the signal strength of the echo increases up to storm cell level and the target is detected in a sector within 50 to 150 NM and 15 of dead ahead regardless of selected range. 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Antenna The ANT−212 antenna is 12 inch and is installed inside the nose kevlar radome. It has a scan sector of 90. The antenna is also stabilized up to 30 in the pitch axis to compensate for aircraft movement in order to have a stable scanning. The antenna is not stabilized in roll, which causes parts of the radar picture to disappear with roll movements of the aircraft. The antenna can be manually tilted between 15 from horizontal. 2.2 Transceiver The transceiver operates in the X−band at a frequency of 9,345 GHz. It transmits and receives the radar beam and transforms the result into digital information fed to the radar control panel. 2.3 Weather radar control panel − WXP The control panel is provided with the necessary controls to select the various modes and functions.

The radar beam power is higher but with lower resolution than for ground mapping. Detectable weather is color coded with the black screen representing no detectable moisture, while detectable weather appears as one of four colors: green, yellow, red, or magenta (least reflective to most reflective). In some weather conditions echoes at a certain distance and density could absorb enough beam energy to cause a very low level, if any, return signal to the radar (leaving a shadow area beyond the echo). This will cause the PAC alert (Path Attenuation Correction) bar to appear on the radar picture extending beyond the absorbing echo which alerts the pilot about possible hidden severe weather beyond the displayed echo. However, the pilot is still the master and should be monitoring the radar picture as the PAC alert has levels which have to be exceeded before PAC alert bar comes on. Observe that the PAC function is intended for weather detection modes only. Using a weather detection mode and downward tilt to produce a ground map will probably produce a display which makes correct interpretation more difficult. The PAC circuits interprets the return signals from ground targets as intense storm targets and tries to com- 15/5.1 COLLINS WXR 350 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 O1 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description pensate for attenuated signal, resulting in the PAC alert bar to appear.

NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description GENERAL The aircraft is provided with an airborne radar system which is used mainly for avoidance of severe weather but can also be used for ground mapping. The system will detect and present weather conditions in an angle of 120 degrees and to the range of 300 NM in front of the aircraft. Flight hazards due to weather conditions are primarily the result of turbulence and hail. Wet hail can be detected by radar, but turbulent air by itself will not provide a radar echo. (Examples are clear−air turbulence and aircraft vortices.) Areas having high rainfall rates are ordinarily associated with turbulence, and it is from this rainfall that radar echoes are reflected and the accompanying turbulence associated with the rainfall is implied. Small areas with extremely heavy rainfall rate or large areas of moderate rainfall rate can reduce the ability of the radar waves to penetrate and present a full picture of the weather area. This may mask or cause strong targets at a farther range to appear much less intense than they actually are. Always assume that all weather behind another is at least one level higher than whats being presented on the radar picture. Proper use of the RANGE, GAIN and TILT controls will aid the user in interpreting the displayed targets. The receiver transmitter unit generates microwave energy in the form of pulses. These pulses are then transferred to the antenna where they are focused into a beam by the antenna. The radar beam is much like the beam of a flashlight. The energy is focused and radiated by the antenna in such a way that it is most intense in the center of the beam with decreasing intensity near the edge. The same antenna is used for both transmitting and receiving. When a pulse intercepts a target, the moisture (rain drops and ice) present in clouds in front of the aircraft, reflects some of this energy back to the antenna. The reflected energy provides a measure of moisture intensity which is converted to a color code. The radar color picture will therefore represent a cross section of the cloud situation in front of the aircraft. The radar also provides turbulence detection in which the system uses the Doppler principle of frequency shift to detect and display precipitation re- lated turbulence. The radar cannot detect clear air turbulence or turbulence not precipitation related. Even though the color code corresponds to a certain amount of moisture, rain and ice, bear in mind that the radar beam will also be reflected by the ground surface, mountains etc. therefore the pilot must know his position before relying on the radar picture being just weather. The Weather Radar is a four color display system and the picture can be presented on both EHSI’s and the MFD (if installed). The weather radar is not a go/no go signal, it is a weather analysis instrument and must be used in conjunction with a knowledge of the atmospheric conditions. It should not be used to make a decision to fly through a convective weather system, but as a guide of how far to circumnavigate it. 1.1 Operational Modes Normal weather detection (WX−position) The signals representing echos from targets on different ranges are treated with a Sensitivity Time Control, STC, which means that the target intensity remains relatively constant for close−in ranges. The radar beam power is higher but with lower resolution than for ground mapping. Detectable weather is color coded with the black screen representing no detectable moisture, while detectable weather appears as one of four colors: green, yellow, red, or magenta (least reflective to most reflective). In some weather conditions echoes at a certain distance and density could absorb enough beam energy to cause a very low level, if any, return signal to the radar (leaving a shadow area beyond the echo). This will cause the PAC alert (Path Attenuation Correction) bar to appear on the radar picture extending beyond the absorbing echo which alerts the pilot about possible hidden severe weather beyond the displayed echo. However, the pilot is still the master and should be monitoring the radar picture as the PAC alert has levels which have to be exceeded before PAC alert bar comes on. 15/5.1 COLLINS TWR 850 PAGE Apr 01/15 1 O2 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description Observe that the PAC function is intended for weather detection modes only. Using a weather detection mode and downward tilt to produce a ground map will probably produce a display which makes correct interpretation more difficult. The PAC RADAR antenna circuit interprets the return signals from ground targets as intense storm targets and tries to compensate for the attenuated signal, resulting in the PAC alert bar to appear. In MAP mode, the PAC alert is disabled. RADAR Transceiver RADAR control panel EHSI MFD (if installed) Fig. 1 WEATHER RADAR − schematic 15/5.1 COLLINS TWR 850 PAGE Apr 01/15 2 O2 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description The color code for the weather picture is: TWR 850 COLOR dbz VIP−LEVEL VIP−DEFINITIONS BLACK <20 −− −− Minimum detectable moisture level (weak).

Very strong moisture level. 4 − Very strong rainfall rate. − Severe turbulence is likely with lightning. Intense moisture level. >50 5 MAGENTA − Intensive rainfall rate. − Severe turbulence is very likely with lightning, organized wind gusts and hail. Extreme moisture level. >60 6 − Extreme rainfall rate. − Severe turbulence is certain with large hail, lightning, and extensive wind gusts. Turbulence related to precipitation. MAGENTA −− −− − In WX+T or TURB mode only and for turbulence greater than 16.4 ft/s (5 m/s) (moderate turbulence). VIP = Video Integrated Processor (U.S National Weather Service) Weather with turbulence (WX+T−position) lence where the wind velocity exceeds 16.4 ft/s (5 m/s). Same weather detection as for WX mode but also allows precipitation related turbulence to be detected on the 5, 10, 25 and 50 NM ranges. (Turbulence cannot be detected at ranges greater than 50 NM). Same color code as for normal weather detection except that magenta indicates both most reflective precipitation and precipitation related turbu- Turbulence detection only (TURB−position) TURB mode instantly removes all weather echoes from the display except for areas of detectable precipitation related turbulence, which appears in magenta. The TURB position of the MODE selector is spring loaded, meaning the selector must be held in 15/5.1 COLLINS TWR 850 PAGE Apr 01/15 3 O2 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description the TURB position. Releasing the selector returns it to the WX+T position and restores the full weather radar display. By removing the green, yellow, red and magenta precipitation echoes from the display, the areas of turbulence can be observed alone. As in the WX+T mode, the turbulence can only be detected in the 5, 10, 25, and 50 NM ranges. Ground mapping (MAP−position) The signals representing ground echos are treated with the Sensitivity Time Controller, STC, in order to keep constant echo intensity for close−in ranges. The shape of the radar beam is more narrow and with lower beam power than for weather detection in order to provide better resolution of the ground echo returns. The PAC alert and ground clutter suppression (GCS) functions are disabled in MAP mode. CAUTION Do not rely on MAP mode only for navigation. The colors for the ground picture are somewhat changed: TWR 850 COLOR DEFINITIONS CYAN Ground targets with low reflectivity. GREEN Ground targets with moderate reflectivity. YELLOW Ground targets with strong reflectivity. MAGENTA Ground targets with most reflectivity. Target alert (TGT−position) Activated Target alert mode is annunced on the EHSI and MFD by a yellow box with the letters TGT inscribed. When selected, the annunciator is visible also with EHSI in ROSE mode and on the MFD even if RDR mode is not selected. The target mode provides an alert sector from 7 to 200 NM and 15 degree of dead ahead regard−less the selected range. The TGT annunciator will start to flash and alert the pilot if an echo inside the sector increases up to Red (VIP−3 level). If the wind velocity also exceeds 16.4 ft/s (5 m/s) the flashing annunciation will alternate between TGT and TRB (turbulence). 2. MAIN COMPONENTS AND SUBSYSTEMS 2.1 Physical description The system consists of two separate units, the Receiver−Transmitter−Antenna and the weather radar panel. The mechanical feature of the TWR 850 radar is its compact construction, combining the receiver, transmitter and antenna into a single unit. The forward part of this unit is the flat−plate antenna. Directly behind the antenna is the RF assembly, consisting of the transmitter and receiver. Mating the antenna and receiver−transmitter eliminates the need for waveguide. 2.2 Antenna The RTA−854 antenna plate is 14 inch and installed in the nose of the aircraft and covered with a kevlar. It has a scan sector of 120. The antenna is also stabilized up to 30 in roll and pitch to compensate for aircraft movement in order to have a stable scanning. The antenna can be manually tilted between 15 from the aircraft’s x−axis or from horizontal with stabilization selected. 2.3 Transceiver The transceiver works in the X−band at a frequency of 9,345 GHz. It transmits and receives the radar beam and transforms the result into digital information fed to the radar control panel. 2.4 Weather radar control panel − WXP The control panel is provided with the necessary controls to select the various modes and functions. The control panel also contains the microprocessor that creates and controls the radar picture presented on EHSI and MFD from the digital information sent by the transceiver. 15/5.1 COLLINS TWR 850 PAGE Apr 01/15 4 O2 Aircraft Operations Manual 3.

TEST − Causes the radar self−test display to appear. TGT − Allows targets to be detected but not displayed. MAP − Use this mode for ground mapping. WX − Basic weather detection mode. Targets may appear in green, yellow, red or magenta. WX+T − Same as WX but also allows precipita− tion related turbulence to be detected on the 5, 10, 25, and 50 mile ranges. TURB − Removes all targets except detected areas of precipitation related turbulence which appear in magenta. A GCS (Ground Clutter Suppression) button. Press and release the GCS button to reduce the intensity of ground returns. STB (Stabilization) button. Press the STB button to turn on the radar antenna stabilization circuits. This makes the precipitation returns easier to see. The pilot should note that the GCS feature may also reduce the intensity of, or completely eliminate weaker precipitation returns. For this reason, the GCS feature times out after approximately 10 seconds. When selected, GCS is annunciated on EHSI/MFD. The STB button is latching and is normally left in the on (or pushed in) position. Antenna stabilization is turned off in the event of an attitude input signal failure. When STB is off, USTB is annunciated on EHSI/MFD. SEC (Sector Scan) button. Press the SEC button to reduce the normal 120 degree scan (60 degrees either side of center) to a 60 degree scan (30 degrees either side of center). A WEATHER RADAR CONTROL PANEL Reducing the sector scan effectively increases the radar update rate. Press the SEC button again to return to the full 120 degree scan. Annunciation is via the reduced size of the range arcs. RANGE selector. Rotate this knob to select the maximum display range. Note that turbulence can only be detected on the 5, 10, 25, or 50 mile range. Half scale range is annunciated on EHSI/MFD. GAIN control. Rotate this knob to change the gain of the radar receiver above or below the CAL (calibrated) setting. Normal system operation is with the knob in the CAL position. Settings other than CAL are annunciated on EHSI/MFD (e.g. G+2, G−3). Each step reduces or increases the receiver sensitivity by 6dbz for a total of 18 dbz. By reducing the gain, it is possible to evaluate the relative severity of the weather system because the weather echos will gradually disappear from the radar picture leaving only the stronger echos. Do not leave the GAIN control reduced or increased after use, always return to CAL position. HLD (Hold) button. Press the HLD button to ”freeze” the display for detailed analysis of targets. The display remains in the hold mode until the HLD button is pressed again, or until a change in mode, range, gain GCS or SEC occurs, or until the MODE switch is turned OFF. Target updating does not occur when HLD is selected. Annunciation is on EHSI/MFD and consists of HOLD alternating with the selected mode (HOLD−WX−HOLD−WX).

Rotate this knob to change the tilt angle of the stabilized radar antenna. All tilt settings are annunciated on EHSI/MFD to the nearest quarter of a degree (e.g. +10.5, −5.2). Autotilt is designed to reduce pilot workload. First the pilot uses the TILT control to adjust the antenna to the optimum tilt angle for the present range and flight altitude. After this is done, select autotilt by selected, changing ranges or altitudes causes the antenna to automatically tilt up or down to maintain the same ratio of tilt angle to range that were preset prior to selecting autotilt. Annunciation is on EHSI/MFD with an ”A” placed before the tilt angle (e.g. A +5,6, etc.) Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ! 15/5.1 COLLINS TWR 850 PAGE Apr 01/15 6 O2 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Description B B EHSI SECTOR MODE/WEATHER RADAR DISPLAY A Radar echo display.

The variable GAIN control should only be used to reduce the receivers sensitivity to aid in determining the relative intensity of multiple thunderstorms and locating embedded cells in a rain front at low altitude and in terminal areas − not to locate a path to penetrate the storm area. As the gain is reduced the red areas of the target will eventually be displayed as yellow and the yellow areas will turn into green. The red area that is the last to change to next lower level is the strongest part of the target. If there is a large area of red displayed and the pilot desires to know which way to deviate to avoid the strongest part of the cell, he may reduce the gain slowly and note which part of the target remains red longest. That is the strongest part of the red return and the area to avoid by the greatest distance. Reducing the gain when ground mapping through light rainfall will clear up the ground picture. GAIN is flashed on the display whenever a reduced gain mode is selected. Do not leave the GAIN control reduced after use, always return to MAX (CAL for TWR 850) position. WXR 200 How to see the difference between a strong cell and a severe thunderstorm. Example: − Red color comes on at a reflectivity over 40 dbz. − Strong and very strong cells have reflectivities in excess of 40 dbz. − Severe thunderstorms have reflectivities in excess of 50 dbz. − Each click on the GAIN control reduces the receiver sensitivity with 6 dbz. All cells in a weather system that still indicates red after the GAIN has been reduced two clicks, must be treated as severe thunderstorms. WXR 350/TWR 850 The WXR 350 weather radar has a fifth color, magenta, which comes on at a reflectivity exceeding 50 dbz. 2.6 HOLD BUTTON The (weather) hold function allows the pilot to evaluate storm direction and rate of movement relative to the aircraft’s present heading. The hold function will provide the greatest assistance when used on longer ranges. On shorter ranges, the weather situation can change too rapidly to justify using the hold function. 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 5 Aircraft Operations Manual 2.7 NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation CONDITIONS NORMAL PROCEDURES TILT SETTINGS (with STB selected) The radar beam is a narrow cone with a beam width of 6 for 18 inch antenna, 7 for 14 antenna and 8 for 12 inch antenna and it sweeps in a plane relative to earth. The tilt control is used to vary the sweep of the beam up or down with respect to the plane of the earth. The key to best weather radar effectivity is precision antenna tilt management for detection, analyzing and avoiding hazardous convective weather handling of the TILT control allows the pilot to measure precipitation densities, the height of a storm, rain core shapes, rain gradients or even distinguish between weather and ground echoes. Described further on are some technics to manipulate the TILT control for best weather detections. 1. Finding the calibrated 0 tilt With STB selected the 0 index on the TILT control should normally position the radar beam in parallel to the surface of the earth. (We can ignore the earth curvature up to 60 NM distances.) This will be true only if the radar antenna has been properly aligned with precision instruments like by the aircraft manufacture. However, experience has shown that the alignment will sometimes deviate after workshop visits and overhauls of the radar system. Therefore the tilt index must be checked and calibrated before the pilot can rely on the tilt effectivity. If we bear in mind that everything connected with tilt management is angular, we will find that when tilt is changed in degrees, the beam is displaced up or down a certain numbers of feet dependent on the distance from the aircraft. The numbers of feet at a particular distance can easily be calculated by this formula: distance x 100 = feet per degree. One degree of tilt change moves the beam up or down 100 feet at one NM from he antenna. At 5 NM the movement is 5 x 100 = 500 feet. At 12,5 NM; 12,5 x 100 = 1250 feet etc. This formula can now easily be applied to determine the time zero tilt. On a clear day, start with level off the aircraft and set a normal cruise speed, over flat terrain. With STB selected, turn the tilt down until the ground echo is displayed from the range arc and out. Then identify the altitude AGL and the arc range in the following table. By adjusting the tilt with the value taken from the table, the radar beam will be leveled in parallel with the surface of the earth . Now, any difference between this tilt setting and the 0 TILT index is a result of misalignment.

The idea is to set up the radar so that the radar beam slightly tilted down to provide ground returns from a certain distance and outwards relative the selected range. With this setting on the radar the pilot is given a fast and certain mean to insure the radar is functioning and most important, a possibility to recognize radar shadows. With ground returns displayed on the indicator; − any prominent echo that works back inside the ground returns is probable weather. − any echo that can not be identified as a city, hill, mountain peak or geological structure is a weather system. − if black areas start to grow from the outer edge of the ground return on the indicator and inwards, the aircraft is approaching a radar shadow. − any echoes that changes rapidly in size, shape or intensity is a dynamic weather system. − If the indicator goes totally black, the radar has failed. (Cont’d) 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 8 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) With the parked position selected, the pilot can also easily measure the clearance to an object. Suppose that an echo working back toward the aircraft, is fading out at the 30 NM range. The echo has faded because it has worked back under the radar beam. Fading out at 30 NM means that the echo − whatever it is − will be cleared by about 1200−1500 feet (depending on which antenna). If the echo fades out at 2 NM it will be cleared by less than 800−1000 feet, if at all. The formula is: half the beam width + 1 x range x 100. Beam width is 6 for 18 inch antenna, 7 for 14 inch and 8 for 12 inch. To find the parked position, set the tilt down one degree. Then adjust the range control so that the ground is being painted on the outer one−third to one−half of the indicator. The following table shows range setting versus altitude and distance from where the ground return is painted. 12 INCH ANTENNA (WXR 200) ALTITUDE AGL Distance from where ground return is painted in nm.

Tilt up position If the tilt is precisely positioned so the bottom of the beam sweeps on a plane parallel to the earth’s surface, the radar will detect and display objects that intrude through the flight level of the aircraft. This tilt position can be set by using a simple technique. Set the tilt so that ground returns are being displayed for example from the 50 NM arc outward. Then drop the thousands from the aircraft height (AGL), divided by 5, and move the tilt up that number of degrees Example: Flying at flight level 210, assume that the present ground elevation is 1000 feet, the height AGL will be about 20000 feet, and 20 divided by 5 equals 4. Then note the tilt setting with the bottom of the beam sweeping on the 50 NM arc, then increase tilt by the number of degrees equal to the calculation (4 degrees). The calculation can also be made with other range settings. NM arc Divided by 5 12.5 25 50 100 150 0.5 1.25 2.5 5 10 15 If finding the calibrated 0 tilt technique has been conducted. The Tilt up position can also be performed by moving the tilt up one−half beam width from the calibrated 0 tilt position. One−half beam width is: 3 for 18 inch antenna, 3.5 for 14 inch antenna and 4 for 12 inch antenna. 4. Measure the height of a radar target The tilt can also be used to determine the height of a radar target. Slowly increase the tilt in 1 increments from the setting calculated above until the echo becomes so weak that it almost disappears from the display. The bottom of the beam is now barely overscanning the top of the target. Now calculate the height of the target relative to the aircraft’s altitude with this formula: Distance to the target multiplied by 100 multiplied by the number of degrees the tilt was increased equals targets radar height. (Cont’d) 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 11 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) Example: A target is displayed at 50 NM with the bottom of the beam leveled at the aircraft altitude. After increasing tilt, the echo disappeared at 4. Now calculate the height of the target like this: 50 x 100 x 4 = 20000 feet The radar top of the target is 20000 feet above the aircraft. Observe that this method measures the radar top of the target, it does not measure total storm height, hazards may exist several thousands feet above the radar top. The method can also be used to measure radar tops below the aircraft altitude in the same manner by adjust the tilt downward . The method will work with airborne radars out to a distance of 60 NM. Beyond that, the curvature of the earth and some other factors render it unreliable. A repetition of the height determining method is recommended in 2 to 3 minute intervals when approaching a weather system to monitor whether the storm is growing in height or dissipating. Rapid growth in radar height of the weather above 20000 to 30000 feet, indicates a very hazardous weather system. Experience has proven that the hazards associated with a weather system are directly proportional to its radar height. In terminal areas, any storm with a radar top exceeding 20000 feet AGL is a potential killer. 5. + 10 tilt. Sometimes there is just no time for much knob tweaking and calculating during a busy approach. In those cases the + 10 on the tilt method is to prefer. Execute the method every 2 minutes for best efficiency. With + 10 on the tilt, echoes displayed at distances of 25 NM or more have radar tops of at least 25000 feet above the present altitude and echoes at 15 NM or more have radar tops of more than 15000 feet above present aircraft altitude. Never leave the tilt at + 10 for more than a 5−10 sweeps at most. Always return to the Parked position. 2.8 PREFLIGHT AND CLIMB− OUT TIPS Make it a part of preflight to check the radar prior to leaving the ramp. Set the Mode selector to TEST. While taxiing or when the aircraft is clear of terminal area and other aircraft, select the shortest range on the radar panel, set the Mode selector to WX, and then adjust the antenna tilt downward until ground echoes appear at the bottom of the display. This is a confidence check to ensure the radar is operational. Tilt the antenna upward and use the radar to determine the weather situation around the airport while taxiing and lined up, especially in darkness (make sure to be clear of other aircraft). (Cont’d) 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 12 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) The best radar performance and confidence check is while airborne. The check is quite simple, if the radar can not display ground returns to a distance of at least 100 NM it can not be trusted. It is convenient to perform the check at 10000 feet because at 10000 feet the line of sight is just 100 NM. Perform the check as the aircraft is climbing through 10000 feet AGL. With STB selected, set RANGE at 200 NM and the TILT control at −1. Now check radar picture when passing through 10000 feet. There should be ground returns displayed out to a distance of at least 100 NM. 2.9 AVOIDANCE PATH PLANNING Along squall lines, individual cells are in different stages of development. Areas between closely spaced, intense echoes may contain developing clouds not having enough moisture to produce an echo. The lightest level (green) may or may not be displayed, which would indicate light rainfall rates or no rainfall; yet, these areas could have strong updrafts or downdrafts. In penetrating a squall line, fly as far from building cells as possible. Avoid contoured areas of the display (areas of intense turbulence) by at least 10 miles or more, whenever possible. Targets showing wide areas of green are generally precipitation without severe turbulence. Avoid all cells containing magenta and red areas by at least 20 miles, if possible. Avoid to deviate downwind unless absolutely necessary. The changes of encountering severe turbulence and damaging hail are greatly reduced by selecting the upwind side of a storm. 2.10 TERMINAL AREAS There are three Life−and−death rules for terminal area: − With +10 tilt, any echo that appears on the display at 20 NM or greater must be avoided regardless if it is contouring or not. − With +10 tilt, any echo giving contours regardless of distance must be avoided no matter how high it is. − With +10 tilt and aircraft in landing configuration, if any contouring echo is detected within 5 NM and can not be avoided, perform immediate go− around. If lined up for takeoff, do not go. Also on an approach, do not hesitate to ask the controller how the weather looks like from the tower side. Ask questions like the following: − What does the weather look like from your position? − How long time ago did the weather develop? − Does the weather seem to be dissipating or growing? − Is the weather moving? (Cont’d) 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 13 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES (Cont’d) − At what speed and direction is it moving? − Is the weather in a line? 2.11 RADAR SHADOW Extremely heavy rainfall can reduce the ability of the radar waves to penetrate and present a full picture of the weather area. This condition is referred to as “radar attenuation”. It is a case where ground returns can be helpful in analyzing the weather situation. Tilt the antenna down and observe the ground returns around the radar echo. With very heavy intervening rain, the ground returns behind the echo will not be present but rather will appear as a shadow. This may indicate a larger area of precipitation than appears on the indicator. Shadowing storms will also contain microbursts, downbursts, larger hail, extreme turbulence and very possibly, tornadoes. Never fly toward a radar shadow, always avoid penetrating a shadowed area. Standing on the ground and scanning a storm with +5 till +15 tilt. If the storm echo appears bowed or crescent shaped, arcing away from the radar, opposite to the range arc on the display, it is a shadow producing severe thunderstorm. Another indication is also a dip on the backside of the echo pointing toward the radar. THE ULTIMATE RADAR RULE IS: NEVER EVER CONTINUE FLIGHT TOWARD A RADAR SHADOW. 2.12 THUNDERSTORMS The most intense echoes are severe thunderstorms with a reflectivity in excess of 50 dbz. Remember that hail may fall several miles from the cloud. It is also important to bear in mind that radar detects presence of precipitation. Storm associated turbulence without precipitation can extend several thousand feet above a storm and outward more than 20 miles. The pilot should avoid the most intense echoes by at least 20 miles, if possible. Thunderstorm development is rapid. A course that appears clear may contain cells a short time later. When viewing the shorter ranges, periodically select one of the longer ranges to observe distant conditions. This permits early planning of necessary avoidance maneuvers. Do not be fooled by the size of an echo. Even an echo as small as 1500 feet in diameter may produce extreme danger. Studies have shown that thunderstorms tend to travel in the direction of the winds around the 10000−foot level. New cells generally form on the side of the cloud in the direction toward which it is moving, usually an easterly direction. Newly developing cells often do not contain sufficient water to reflect an echo, yet, they can cause severe turbulence. In general, detour to the diminishing side of thunderstorms, especially if passing at close range See 2.5 GAIN CONTROL for how to identify severe thunderstorms. 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 14 Aircraft Operations Manual CONDITIONS 2.13 TORNADOES NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES The extreme case of severe turbulence is a tornado. Cumulonimbusmamatus clouds producing tornadoes have, in a few instances, been related to a characteristic target display. The display is not usually different from that of a regular thunderstorm. Radar display of clouds, from which tornadoes were confirmed, have, on occasion, shown the formation of a hook pattern in connection with the tornado. A narrow, fingerlike portion extends from the cloud display and, in a short time, curls into a hook and closes on itself. Other echoes associated with tornadoes are V−shaped notches and doughnut shapes. These shapes do not always indicate tornadoes, nor are tornado echoes limited to these characteristic patterns. Of the confirmed radar observation of tornadoes from target thunderstorms, most displays have not shown shapes different from those of a normal thunderstorm display. Conditions conductive to tornado formation produce severe updrafts and downdrafts that carry large amounts of water to great heights. Contouring areas (WX mode) with steep rainfall gradients that produce echoes at high altitudes (TILT control up more than usual) are indicative of tornado−forming conditions. In no case should these areas be penetrated. Avoid them by a margin of at least 20 miles, since turbulence extends outward from the echoproducing area for larger distances. 2.14 HAIL Hail results from updrafts carrying water high enough to freeze. Consequently, the greater height of a thunderstorm echo, the greater the probability that it contains hail. An estimate of the height can be made by the amount of antenna uptilt required to view the upper part of the target echo. In the upper regions of a cloud where ice particles are “dry” (no liquid coating on the particle), echoes will be less intense. Liquid water reflects about 5 times more radar energy than solid ice particles of the same mass. Since hailstones are considerably larger than water drops and are usually coated with a thin layer of liquid water, the echo intensity from “wet” hail is greater than that from rainfall. Thunderstorm targets having an intensity greater than that associated with maximum rainfall will most likely contain hail. It is not always possible to determine from the display, whether the echo is from hail or rain. Instances have been reported of hail targets producing fingerlike protrusions up to 5 miles long and blunt protuberances up to 3 miles from the edge of a thunderstorm echoes. In parts of the world were hail occurs often, contouring extensions (WX mode) from thunderstorms generally indicate the presence of hail. This same type of display is also associated with new convective cells that may not yet contain hail.

Protruding fingers, hooks, scalloped edges, and U−shapes are display shapes that have been associated with hail, yet hail echoes are not limited to these shapes. These displays, however, do indicate areas of severe turbulence and must be avoided by a wide margin. Echoes from hail can appear quickly and along any edge of a storm cell. These echoes can also change in shape and intensity in a vary short period of time. For this reason, close and careful monitoring of the display is required. 2.15 ORDER OF REFLECTANCE Most reflective − WET HAIL − RAIN − ICE CRYSTALS − WET SNOW − DRY HAIL Least reflective 2.16 RADAR ECHO − DRY SNOW ROUND OR OVAL Convective rain shower and general storm cells tend to produce a round or oval echo. They should never be penetrated, but either one can be approached to within a couple of miles. The circumnavigation distances should be greater the more the shape deviates from round to oval.

The rain gradient depicted in an echo is directly proportional to vertical shear potential. The steeper the gradient, the greater the potential for severe vertical shears and also horizontal shears near the ground. SCALLOPED EDGES Echoes with a wavy scalloped edge is quite typical for a hail producing storm. Presence of extreme hail shafts exist if the echo also shows protrusions, protuberances, U−shapes, hooks and fingers. HOOKS, FINGERS AND NOTCHES V−shaped or U−shaped notches indicate extreme vertical shear. A finger that appears to curl into a hook or closes into a loop is an indication of suspected tornadoes. Be aware of large hooks protruding from the echo.

Most major tornado producing storms have had this shape. A notch in the large end indicates a strong wind aloft blowing towards the large end from the small end. Variations of the pendant shape can also be echoes looking like a frying pan, a heart or a spearpoint. The echo normally moves towards the notched end. HOURGLASS A two cell connected together relationship should be carefully avoided. In such a complex combination, one cell will frequently become dominant and suching the energy and moisture from the weaker cell. This kind of development can result in an weather explosion producing extreme microbursts with surface gusts above 70 knots. Also expect extreme rain. This entire event is very rapid and may occur as fast as five minutes. BUILDING AND DISSIPATING ECHOES A storm which has passed through mature stage and has begun to dissipate shows an echo with an indistinct and fuzzy appearance along the outer periphery. It will still be dangerous but with some patients, it will dissipate into a non dangerous area of heavy rain. Small echoes with a hard crisp look is a characteristic shape of a growing storm. Be very carefully about about over flying any growing storms, seems the development very rapid and well in excess of 6000 feet per minute. 15/5.2 PAGE Apr 01/15 18 Aircraft Operations Manual NAVIGATION, WEATHER RADAR Operation NORMAL PROCEDURES APPENDICES.
