We, as pilots, can demonstrate our concern for environmental provement, by application of the following suggested procedures, thereby tend to build public support for aviation: reof im- and (1) Pilots operating aircraft under VFR over outdoor assemblies of persons, and park areas, recreational and other noise-sensitive areas should make every effort to fly not less than 2,000 feet above the surface, weather permitting, even though flight at a lower level may be consistent with the provisions of government regulations. (2) During departure from or approach to an airport, climb after take-off and descent for landing should be made so as to avoid prolonged flight at low altitude near noise-sensitive areas. In lieu of the above requirements, an aircraft may be inspected in accordance with a progressive inspection schedule, which allows the work load to be divided into smaller operations that can be accomplished in shorter 2-10 is NOTE The above recommended procedures do not apply where clearances would conflict with Air Traffic Control or instructions, in the pilot's judgment, an or where, for him to altitude of less than 2, 000 feet is necessary his duty to see and avoid other airexercise adequately craft. they The CESSNA PROGRESSIVE CARE PROGRAM has been developed to provide a modern progressive inspection schedule that satisfies the omplete aircraft inspection requirements of both the 100 HOUR and ANNUAL inspections 5-6 as applicable to Cessna aircraft. 2-21 INTERIOR CARE. the dust and loose dirt from the upholstery To remove interior with a vacuum cleaner. regularly and carpet, clean tissue or rags. with cleansing Blot up any spilled liquid promptly material firmly and hold it for Don't pat the spot; press the blotting several seconds.

However, after thirty minutes of cruising flight, the ammeter should be indicating If the charging rate were less than two needle widths of charging current. to remain above this value on a long flight, the battery would overheat and evaporate the electrolyte at an excessive rate. Electronic components in the electrical system could be adversely affected by higher than normal voltage if a faulty voltage regulator setting is causing the overcharging. To preclude these possibilities, an over-voltage sensor will automatically shut down the alternator and the over-voltage light will illuminate warning if the charge voltage reaches approximately 16 volts. Assuming that the malfunction was only momentary, an attempt should be made to reactivate To do this, turn both sides of the master the alternator system. switch off and then on again. If the problem no longer exists, normal alternator and the warning charging will resume light will go off. If the light comes on again, a malfunction is confirmed. In this event, the flight should be terminated and/or the current drain on the battery minimized because the battery can supply the electrical system for only a limited period of time.

EXCESSIVE RATE OF CHARGE. After engine starting and heavy electrical usage at low engine speeds (such as extended taxiing) the battery condition will be low enough to accept above normal charging during the initial part of a flight. However, after thirty minutes of cruising flight, the ammeter should be indicating If the charging rate were less than two needle widths of charging current. to remain above this value on a long flight, the battery would overheat and evaporate the electrolyte at an excessive rate. Electronic components in the electrical system could be adversely affected by higher than normal voltage if a faulty voltage regulator setting is causing the overcharging. To preclude these possibilities, an over-voltage sensor will automatically shut down the alternator and the over-voltage light will illuminate warning if the charge voltage reaches approximately 16 volts. Assuming that the malfunction was only momentary, an attempt should be made to reactivate To do this, turn both sides of the master the alternator system. switch off and then on again. If the problem no longer exists, normal alternator and the warning charging will resume light will go off. If the light comes on again, a malfunction is confirmed. In this event, the flight should be terminated and/or the current drain on the battery minimized because the battery can supply the electrical system for only a limited period of time.

A remote OX YGEN SYSTEMOPER DeFuel from each wing tank flows by gravity to a selector valve. pending upon the setting of the selector valve, fuel from the left, right, or both tanks flows through a fuel strainer and carburetor to the engine induction system. valve should be in the BOTH position for take-off, The fuel selector and maneuvers climb, that involve prolonged slips or skids. landing, Operation from either LEFT or RIGHT tank is reserved for cruising flight. A TIO N. Prior to flight, check to be sure that there is an adequate oxygen Refer supply for the trip, by noting the oxygen pressure gage reading. OXYGEN DURATION CALCULATION, to paragraph and to the Oxygen Chart (figure 7-2). Duration Also, check that the face masks and hoses are accessible and in good condition. oxygen should be used by all occupants when cruising in the Cessna booklet "Man At Altitude, As described to use oxygen at altitudes lower than 10, 000 feet it is often advisable or under conditions of night flying, fatigue, or periods of physiological disturbances. emotional Also, the habitual and excessive use of tobacco or alcohol will usually necessitate the use of oxygen at less than 10, 000 feet, Supplemental above 10, 000 feet. 7-6 FUEL SYSTEM. NOTE " When the fuel selector valve handle is in the BOTH position in cruising flight, unequal fuel flow from each tank may occur if the wings are not maintained exactly level. can be alleviated Resulting wing heaviness gradually by turning the selector valve handle to the tank in the "heavy" wing.
