Checklist Usage
Tasks are executed in one of two ways:
■ as a sequence that uses the layout of the cockpit controls
and indicators as cues (i.e., “flow pattern”)
■ as a sequence of tasks organized by event rather than panel
location (e.g., After Takeoff, Gear – UP, Flaps – UP).
Placing items in a flow pattern or series provides organization
and serves as a memory aid.
A challenge-response review of the checklist follows execution
of the tasks; the pilot not flying (PNF) calls the item, and the
appropriate pilot responds by verifying its condition (e.g.,
“Propeller Anti-Ice” [challenge] – “ON” [response]).
Two elements are inherent in the execution of normal
procedures:
■ use of either the cockpit layout or event cues to prompt the
correct switch and/or control positions followed by the normal
checklist as a done list
■ use of normal checklists as “done” lists.

propeller is a safety hazard. Prolonged windmilling at zero oil
pressure can damage bearings.
Secure the propeller with one blade down when mooring to
allow moisture to drain from spinner.

Preflight Inspection
Snow and ice on an airplane can seriously affect performance.
Wing contour may be sufficiently altered by snow and ice accu-
mulation where it affects wing lift qualities. Remove snow with a
soft brush or mop. Do not remove snow and ice accumulations
by chipping or mechanical means. Use of glycol-based deicing
fluids is recommended. Deicing/anti-icing fluids conforming to
specification MIL-A-8243 are recommended by the airframe
manufacturer.
Vents . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CLEAR
Pay particular attention to all vents, exhausts, and other
openings. Remove accumulated snow or ice from these
areas.
Control Surfaces and Hinges . . . . . . CLEAR OF SNOW/
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT
Inspect all control surfaces and hinge areas for accumulated
snow or ice. Control surfaces should move freely with no
signs of binding. A thorough check of all flight controls should
be made for complete freedom of movement.
Propellers and Hubs . . . . . . CLEAN/FREE TO ROTATE
Propeller blades and hubs should be free of ice. If engine
inlet covers were not used during snow and freezing rain
conditions, rotate the propellers by hand in the normal direc-
tion to ensure freedom of movement before engine start.
After engine start exercise the propellers through low and
high pitch, beta range, and into reverse range to flush any
congealed oil through the system.
Taxi

If the optional brake deice system is installed, turn it on for
taxiing, landing in snow, slush, or freezing rain.
Taxiing . . . . . . . . . . AVOID DEEP SNOW AND SLUSH
Avoid taxiing the aircraft in deep snow and slush to prevent
forcing snow and slush into the brake assemblies and subse-
quent brake freezing.
Ground Speed . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . SLOW
Taxi slowly to compensate for possible decreased braking
action. Allow more clearance when maneuvering.
Flaps . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . RETRACT
Taxi with the flaps retracted to prevent snow and slush thrown
up by the wheels entering the flap mechanism. Thrown snow

General Information
SimuFlite strongly supports the premise that the disciplined use
of well-developed Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) is
central to safe, professional aircraft operations, especially in
multi-crew, complex, or high performance aircraft.
If your flight department has an SOP, we encourage you to use
it during your training. If your flight department does not already
have one, we welcome your use of the SimuFlite SOP.
Corporate pilots carefully developed this SOP. A product of their
experience, it is the way SimuFlite conducts its flight operations.
The procedures described herein are specific to the King Air
200 and apply to specified phases of flight. The flight crew
member designated for each step accomplishes it as indicated.
Definitions
LH/RH – Pilot Station. Designation of seat position for accom-
plishing a given task because of proximity to the respective con-
trol/indicator. Regardless of PF or PNF role, the pilot in that seat
performs tasks and responds to checklist challenges accordingly.
PF – Pilot Flying. The pilot responsible for controlling the flight
of the aircraft.
PIC – Pilot-in-Command. The pilot responsible for the operation
and safety of an aircraft during flight time.
PNF – Pilot Not Flying. The pilot who is not controlling the flight
of the aircraft.
Flow Patterns
Flow patterns are an integral part of the SOP. Accomplish the
cockpit setup for each phase of flight with a flow pattern, then
refer to the checklist to verify the setup. Use normal checklists
as “done lists” instead of “do lists.”
Flow patterns are disciplined procedures; they require pilots to
understand the aircraft systems/controls and to methodically
accomplish the flow pattern.
King Air 200 Developed for Training Purposes 2C-3
September 2002
CAE SimuFlite
Checklists
Use a challenge-response method to execute any checklist.
After the PF initiates the checklist, the PNF challenges by read-
ing the checklist item aloud. The PF is responsible for verifying
that the items designated as PF or his seat position (i.e., LH or
RH) are accomplished and for responding orally to the chal-
lenge. Items designated on the checklist as PNF or by his seat
position are the PNF’s responsibility. The PNF confirms the
accomplishment of the item, then responds orally to his own
challenge. In all cases, the response by either pilot is confirmed
by the other and any disagreement is resolved prior to continu-
ing the checklist.
After the completion of any checklist, the PNF states
“___ checklist is complete.” This allows the PF to maintain sit-
uational awareness during checklist phases and prompts the
PF to continue to the next checklist, if required.
Effective checklists are pertinent and concise. Use them the
way they are written: verbatim, smartly, and professionally.
Omission of Checklists
While the PF is responsible for initiating checklists, the PNF
should ask the PF whether a checklist should be started if, in
his opinion, a checklist is overlooked. As an expression of good
crew resource management, such prompting is appropriate for
any flight situation: training, operations, or checkrides.
Challenge/No Response
If the PNF observes and challenges a flight deviation or critical
situation, the PF should respond immediately. If the PF does
not respond by oral communication or action, the PNF must
issue a second challenge that is loud and clear. If the PF does
not respond after the second challenge, the PNF must ensure
the safety of the aircraft. The PNF must announce that he is
assuming control and then take the necessary actions to return
the aircraft to a safe operating envelope.
Abnormal/Emergency Procedures
When any crewmember recognizes an abnormal or emergency
condition, the PIC designates who controls the aircraft, who
performs the tasks, and any items to be monitored. Following
these designations, the PIC calls for the appropriate checklist.
The crewmember designated on the checklist accomplishes
the checklist items with the appropriate challenge/response.
The pilot designated to fly the aircraft (i.e., PF) does not per-
form tasks that compromise this primary responsibility, regard-
less of whether he uses the autopilot or flies manually.
Both pilots must be able to respond to an emergency situation
that requires immediate corrective action without reference to a
checklist. The elements of an emergency procedure that must
be performed without reference to the appropriate checklist are
called memory or recall items. Accomplish all other abnormal and
emergency procedures while referring to the printed checklist.
Accomplishing abnormal and emergency checklists differs from
accomplishing normal procedure checklists in that the pilot
reading the checklist states both the challenge and the
response when challenging each item.
When a checklist procedure calls for the movement or manipu-
lation of controls or switches critical to safety of flight (e.g.,
throttles, engine fire switches, fire bottle discharge switches),
the pilot performing the action obtains verification from the
other pilot that he is moving the correct control or switch prior
to initiating the action.
Any checklist action pertaining to a specific control, switch, or
equipment that is duplicated in the cockpit is read to include its
relative position and the action required (e.g., “Left Throttle –
IDLE; Left Boost Pump – OFF”).
Aborted Takeoffs
The aborted takeoff procedure is a preplanned maneuver; both
crewmembers must be aware of and briefed on the types of mal-
functions that mandate an abort. Assuming the crew trains to a
firmly established SOP, either crewmember may call for an abort.
The PF normally commands and executes the takeoff abort for
directional control problems or catastrophic malfunctions.
Additionally, any indication of the following malfunctions prior to
V1 is cause for an abort:
■ engine failure
■ engine fire.
In addition to the above, the PF usually executes an abort prior
to 65 KIAS for any abnormality observed.
When the PNF calls an abort, the PF announces “Abort.” or
“Continue.” and executes the appropriate procedure.
Altitude Assignment
The PNF sets the assigned altitude in the altitude alerter and
points to the alerter while orally repeating the altitude. The PNF
continues to point to the altitude alerter until the PF confirms
the altitude assignment and alerter setting.
Pre-Departure Briefings
The PIC should conduct a pre-departure briefing prior to each
flight to address potential problems, weather delays, safety
considerations, and operational issues. Pre-departure briefings
should include all crewmembers to enhance team-building and
set the tone for the flight. The briefing may be formal or infor-
mal, but should include some standard items. The acronym
AWARE works well to ensure no points are missed. This is also
an opportunity to brief any takeoff or departure deviations from
the SOP due to weather or runway conditions.

PF PNF
If the VOR on the PNF’s side is used for crosschecks on the inter-
mediate segment, the PNF’s localizer and glideslope status calls
are accomplished at the time the PNF changes to the ILS fre-
quency. This should be no later than at completion of the FAF
crosscheck, if required. The PNF should tune and identify his
NAV radios to the specific approach and monitor.

Avionics
This section includes:
■ pitot/static system
■ avionics power
■ communications and navigation equipment
■ autopilot.
Please refer to the applicable manuals for more detailed infor-
mation.
Pitot/Static System
A pitot mast on the left and right forward fuselage and static
ports on the left and right rear fuselage provide ram and static
pressure to the pitot/static system. Electrically powered heating
elements warms the pitot masts to prevent ice formation. With
the LEFT and RIGHT PITOT switches in ON, the pitot mast
heating elements are powered. Static ports are unheated.
The pilot or left pitot supplies the pilot airspeed indicator and air
data computer (if installed). The copilot or right pitot supplies the
copilot airspeed indicator. On S/Ns BB-324 to BB-452 without
SI 1047, the copilot’s pitot mast also supplies the landing gear
warning system’s differential pressure switch.
The static ports supply pressure for the:
■ airspeed indicators
■ vertical speed indicators
■ altimeter
■ cabin pressure differential gage
■ air data computer (if installed).
The PILOT’S STATIC AIR SOURCE valve handle can connect
the pilot’s pitot/static system to an alternate static source in the
aircraft tailcone.
Communications Equipment
A typical communications equipment installation includes:
■ two audio control panels
■ two VHF communications transceivers
■ radio telephone
Because of the wide variation of equipment found in these air-
craft, please refer to the applicable manuals for more detailed
descriptions and operating information.
Static Discharging
Static wicks on the aircraft structure and control surfaces mini-
mize the effects of lightning strikes and static charges on avion-
ics equipment and the aircraft structure. The wicks bleed off
accumulated static charges to the atmosphere. Due to varying
configurations, consult your MEL for number and position of sta-
tic wicks.
Navigation
Navigation equipment provides aircraft direction and attitude
information, determines aircraft position, and furnishes flight
management.
Attitude and direction equipment use inertial and magnetic
forces to sense and display aircraft heading and attitude.
Equipment includes:
■ magnetic compass
■ turn and slip indicator
■ gyro horizon/vertical gyro
■ radio magnetic indicator
■ vertical gyro system
■ compass system.
Autopilot
The autopilot system provides automatic control and stabiliza-
tion of the aircraft about the pitch, roll, and yaw axes. It positions
the aircraft elevator, ailerons, and rudder in response to autopi-
lot/flight computer steering commands. Selectable operating
modes automatically maintain a desired altitude, pitch attitude
or heading, and capture and track localizer, glideslope, and
VOR signals.
Systems certified on this aircraft include:
■ Collins AP-105
■ Collins AP-106
■ Collins APS-65
■ Collins APS-80
■ King KFC-300
■ King KFC-400 (B200 only)
■ Honeywell (Sperry) SPZ-200A

Electrical System
DC System
DC electrical sources include:
■ a 24V, 34 amp-hour nickel-cadmium battery
■ two 250A 30V DC starter/generators
■ an external DC power system.
These power sources supply the dual-fed bus system that dis-
tributes power to the aircraft through circuit breakers:
■ Battery
The battery powers starting and emergency operation of essen-
tial equipment powered from the Hot Battery bus. With the BATT
switch in ON, power flows from the battery through the battery
relay to the Main Battery bus. The Main Battery bus then feeds
the Isolation bus that, in turn, provides power to the Left and
Right Generator buses. Once the Generator buses are pow-
ered, the four Dual-Fed buses are powered.
The Main Battery bus also supplies two starter circuits controlled
by the engine starter switches and starter relays.
For nicad batteries, a battery charge current detector continu-
ously monitors battery charging rate. If charging rate exceeds 7
amps for six seconds or more, the monitoring system illuminates
the BATTERY CHARGE annunciator and triggers the flashing
MASTER CAUTION annunciators. After a battery engine start,
the BATTERY CHARGE annunciator normally illuminates after
the operating engine generator is turned on.
Generators
The generators function as starters during engine starts. Once
an engine is running, the generators provide DC power to the
aircraft. GEN 1 and GEN 2 switches control the generators. The
MASTER SWITCH gang bar turns off the battery and generator
switches simultaneously.
Reverse-current protection prevents the generators from
absorbing power from the Generator buses if the generators are
not operating, or if generator voltage is less than bus voltage.
Voltage Regulation
On aircraft BB-2 to 88, a voltage regulation system consists of
transistorized regulators, overvoltage relays, paralleling relays,
and reverse current relays. These components provide:
■ generator load paralleling
■ reverse current cutout
■ voltage regulation to 28.25 ±0.25V DC
■ overvoltage protection
■ under voltage protection
■ starter/generator priority
The voltage regulators (one for each generator) maintain a con-
stant level voltage output. The paralleling circuit functions when
both generators are on-line. The circuit depresses the voltage of
the high- output generator and increases that of the low-output
generator until both are equal.
If generator output exceeds 32 to 34V, the overvoltage relay
trips to take the generator off-line. Actuation of the overvoltage
relay also removes voltage from the SW terminal of the reverse-
current relay so it opens and removes the generator from the bus.
If the overvoltage condition is the result of a voltage regulator mal-
function, the overvoltage relays stops the condition. If generator
output voltage drops below bus voltage, the reverse current relay
isolates the generator from the bus to protect the generator.
External Power
An appropriately rated ground power unit (GPU) can supply the
aircraft electrical system through an external power receptacle
on the right wing. The ground power unit (GPU) should be capa-
ble of providing a continuous load of 300A at 24 to 30V DC and
1,000A for 0.1 seconds during engine start. Use of an inade-
quate GPU will cause a voltage drop below the start relay’s
drop-out voltage. This may result in relay chatter and welded
contacts. Similarly, a GPU that provides more than 350A contin-
uous load will damage the external power relay and airplane
power cables. Connecting a GPU illuminates the EXT PWR
annunciator. With external power connected, the generators will
not come on-line.
DC Power Distribution
The DC power distribution system includes:
■ Hot Battery bus
■ Main Battery bus
■ Isolation bus
■ Left and Right Generator buses
■ Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4 Dual-Fed buses
■ Nos. 1 and 2 Avionics buses
■ optional No. 3 Avionics bus.
The battery directly powers the Hot Battery bus. This bus is un-
switched (i.e., always powered) and supplies power to items that
may be operating with the battery switch OFF. With the battery
switch ON, the closed battery contacts connect the battery to
the Main Battery bus.
The primary load of the Main Battery bus is the left and right
starter/generators during engine start. It also powers the
Isolation bus. With a GPU connected to the aircraft, the Main
Battery bus is powered through the closed external power relay.
The Isolation bus serves as a connection between the Left and
Right Generator buses. High amperage current limiters between
the Isolation bus and the Generator buses isolate the battery
from a Generator bus fault.
Each of the four Dual-Fed buses receive power simultaneously
from the Left and Right Generator buses. These buses are
always powered from a combination of three sources. Typically,
these sources are both generators or a generator and/or battery.
The left and right generators power, respectively, the Nos. 1 and
2 DC Avionics buses. The AVIONICS MASTER switch and
avionics master power relays control this power. With the switch
in ON, the relays de-energize to the normally closed position to
ensure that if the switch fails, the relays provide continued
power to the avionics equipment.

Two 250VA or 750VA, 400 Hz static inverters supply 115V and
26V AC power. Each inverter operates on 28V DC. The Left
Generator bus powers the No. 1 inverter while the Right
Generator bus powers the No. 2 inverter.
Placing the INVERTER switch in the No. 1 or No. 2 position
energizes the respective inverter’s control relay. The relay clos-
es so that Generator bus powers the inverter. The INVERTER
switch also controls the inverter select relay to connect the 26V
AC buses to the selected inverter and 115V AC to the
voltage/frequency meter and inverter fail relay.

Environmental Systems
This environmental section includes the following systems:
■ bleed air supply (pneumatic system)
■ heating system
■ air conditioning system
■ pressurization system
Supplemental Heating
Optional radiant heating panels provide increased heating. The
RADIANT HEAT switch controls the radiant heat panels usually
located above the cabin windows and on the cargo door.
Depending on the installation, thermal fuses or thermostats pro-
vide overheat protection for the panels.
On aircraft BB-1439, 1444 and subsequent; BL-139 and sub-
sequent, an optional electric heating system warms the cabin
during ground operations. With weight-on-wheels, place the
CABIN TEMP MODE in MAN HEAT and the ELEC HEAT and
AFT BLOWER switches on. When the electric heat system is
turned on, the ELEC HEAT ON annunciator must extinguish
before turning the AFT BLOWER switch off. If duct temperature
reaches 118°F (48°C), overheat sensors shut the system down
by de-energizing heater power relays and control switch.
Pressurization
The pressurization system controls cabin altitude, climb rate,
and descent rate by operating outflow valves that vent condi-
tioned air to the atmosphere.
The pressurization controller regulates the outflow valve open-
ing to maintain the desired cabin rate-of-change during climb
and descent and cabin pressure altitude during cruise. If a neg-
ative cabin pressure differential occurs, a negative pressure
relief diaphragm opens to allow ambient air inflow into the cabin.
This prevents cabin altitude being lower than aircraft altitude.
Aircraft with PT6-41 engines have a 6.1 PSI maximum cabin
pressure differential while aircraft with PT6A-42 engines have a
6.6 PSI maximum cabin pressure differential. The pressurization
system maintains approximately a 10,000 ft cabin altitude at
31,000 (PT6A-41) or 35,000 ft pressure altitude (PT6A-42). If
the system malfunctions and cabin pressure differential exceeds
the system’s maximum value, a safety valve dumps excess
pressure to atmosphere. Place the CABIN PRESS switch in
DUMP to releases cabin pressure regardless of weight-on-
wheels status.
Placing the CABIN PRESS switch in TEST bypassing the land-
ing gear squat switch to test the system, which enables the
aircraft to be pressurized on the ground.

Testing
Aircraft with a photo-cell detection system have a rotary TEST
SWITCH with six positions: L and R EXT on left side of switch;
3, 2, 1 on right side of switch, and OFF. Aircraft with sensing
elements have a switch labeled TEST SWITCH FIRE DET &
EXT with positions of EXT L-R and DET L-R (BB-1439, BB-144
to 1462) or a switch labeled TEST SWITCH ENG FIRE SYS
with OFF, EXT L-R and DET L-R positions (BB-1463 and sub-
sequent; BL-139 and subsequent). Aircraft without extin-
guishing systems eliminate the EXT labels on the switches.
Rotating the TEST switch through positions 3, 2, and 1 or DET
L-R illuminates the left and right red MASTER WARNING flash-
ers, the red L and R ENG FIRE annunciators, and the red L and
R ENG FIRE PUSH TO EXT lights (if installed). If any of the fire
detection annunciators fail to illuminate at each test position, a
malfunction exists in the detector circuits.
Rotating the switch to the L/R EXT or EXT L-R positions tests
the fire extinguishing system. Illumination of the ENG FIRE
light’s D (DISCH) caption indicates the bulb is functioning; illu-
mination of the OK caption indicates detector circuitry and
squib-firing circuits are operational.

Flight Controls
Primary flight controls include the ailerons, elevators, and rud-
der. These control the aircraft through the pitch, roll, and yaw
axes. Each of the primary flight controls has a mechanically
operated trim system; the elevator trim system also has an
electrically operated trim system. The flap system is the only
secondary flight control system.
Related flight systems include the stall warning, rudder boost,
and yaw damper systems.
Flaps
Each wing contains two flaps on the trailing edge inboard of the
ailerons. With flaps extended, stall speed decreases.
Selection of a flap position on the FLAP handle controls travel
of the flaps by powering flap motor through limit switches and
the flap motor relay. The flap motor drives a gearbox connect-
ed to four flexible driveshafts that, in turn, connect to jackscrew
actuators at each flaps. To prevent overtravel, the flap motor
has a dynamic braking system of two sets of motor windings.
Limit switches interrupt power to the flap motor when the
desired position is reached. On aircraft BB-2 to 187, roller type
microswitches limit flap travel. On aircraft BB-188 and subse-
quent; aircraft with SI-1121-II, open-cam type microswitches
provide greater reliability in limiting flap travel.
A safety mechanism interrupts power if a split flap situation
occurs. On aircraft BB-2 to 424 this system cuts power by
pulling one of the flap motor fuses. On aircraft BB-425 and
subsequent; BL-1 and subsequent, flap asymmetry operates
a flap safety switch.
The landing gear warning system provides an aural and visual
warning of improper flight configurations. With the FLAP handle
in UP, APPROACH, or DOWN, retarding the power levers below
about 79% N1 RPM setting with the landing gear retracted
sounds the gear warning horn and flashes the landing gear lever
light. With the FLAP handle in UP or APPROACH, pressing the
horn silence button stops the horn. Advancing the power levers
or extending the landing gear cancels the warning completely.
With flaps down, the horn cannot be silenced by advancing the
power levers or by pressing the horn silence button.

Fuel
The airframe fuel system includes fuel storage, venting, indicat-
ing, and distribution. Refer to the Powerplant chapter for engine
fuel and fuel control systems. Refueling is covered in the
Servicing chapter.
Storage
Wing and auxiliary fuel tanks hold a usable total of 544 or 650
U.S. gallons (with tip tanks). Each wing tank consists of five
interconnected tanks and a nacelle tank behind the engine.
These tanks are either bladder or integral type. Fuel from the
wing tank gravity feeds into the nacelle tank.
From the nacelle tank, an engine-driven fuel boost pump sup-
plies fuel under pressure to the engine through a firewall fuel
shutoff valve. Placing a firewall shutoff valve switch in the
CLOSED position electrically drives the valve closed.
The auxiliary fuel tank consists of a center section tank in each
wing root. Because these tanks are lower than the rest of the
fuel tanks, motive flow fuel powers a jet transfer pump to move
fuel to the nacelle tank.
Optional wing tip tanks, which gravity drain into the outboard
wing tank, are available.
Drain valves at tank low points permit fuel sampling and water
removal. These drains are forward of the wheel well (nacelle
tank), outboard of the nacelle (leading edge tank), halfway out
on the wing (integral tank), and on the middle of the wing root
(auxiliary tank). A drain valve permits removal of accumulated
water from the gravity feed line that connects the wing and
nacelle tanks. The optional tip tanks also have a drain valve at
their lowest point.
Indicating
A capacitance-type fuel indicating system provides accurate
measurement of fuel quantity regardless of fuel temperature and
type. If installed, the tip tank fuel quantity system uses a simple
float type quantity transmitter and a separate set of gages.
As fuel level rises and falls in a fuel tank, probe capacitance
increases and decreases proportionately. The fuel indicating
system then produces an output current to drive the fuel gages.
Normally, the fuel gages display main tank quantity in pounds.
Placing the fuel selector switch in AUXILIARY displays auxiliary
fuel tank quantity.
For tip tank quantities, a fuel quantity transmitter provides a
resistance value that corresponds to tank quantity. As fuel tank
level falls from full, resistance drops until at the empty level there
is near zero resistance. This output drives the associated TIP
TANK FUEL gage.
Venting
The wing and auxiliary fuel tanks vent to atmosphere through a
pair of vents on the wing underside near the engine nacelle.
Each pair of vents has an unheated recessed vent and a heat-
ed ram air vent. If one vent clogs, the other continues to provide
tank venting.
The outer wing tanks vent to each other and then to atmosphere
through a vent float valve near the wing tip and a pair of vents
on the lower wing surface. The float valve connects to a vent line
running the length of the outboard wing section. The vent line
then connects to an unheated recessed vent through a check
valve and to a heated ram air vent through a flame arrestor.
An air inlet and two suction relief valves in the wing tip prevent
fuel siphoning through the venting system. One of the pressure
relief valves connects to the air inlet while the other one con-
nects the float valve to a siphon break line.
The nacelle tank also has a vent float valve and two suction
relief valves. From the float valve, a vent line connects this tank
to the two wing vents.
When the auxiliary fuel tank is full, its float-operated check
valve closes to prevent fuel loss through the venting system.
The tank then vents to atmosphere through the vent line con-
nected to the integral wing tank. As the fuel level in this tank
drops, the check valve opens and the tank vents directly
through the two wing vents.
The optional tip tanks vent through the wing system. Each tip
tank has a vent float valve that closes when the tank is full. As
fuel level drops, the float valve opens and the tank vents through
the wing vent lines.
Distribution
Fuel either gravity flows from the wing tank or is pumped from
the auxiliary tank to the nacelle tank. Each nacelle tank supplies
fuel to its engine through the firewall fuel shutoff valve.
During engine operation, the engine’s fuel boost pump draws
fuel from the nacelle tank and provides it under pressure to the
engine. If this pump fails, an electrically driven standby fuel
boost pump in the nacelle tank provides pressurized fuel. The
standby boost pump also moves fuel during crossfeed.

Propeller Deicing
An electrically heated boot for each propeller blade provides
automatic and manual anti-ice protection for the propellers. The
No. 1 Dual-fed bus powers the automatic system while the No.
3 and 4 Dual-fed bus powers the manual switch.
On BB-2 to 815, 817 to 824, and 991; BL-1 to 29, the propeller
deicing system is an inner and outer heating element on each
propeller blade. With the PROP switch in AUTO, the deicer
timer cycles power for approximately 30 seconds each to the
RH outboard, RH inboard, LH outboard, and LH inboard heat-
ing elements. If the automatic system fails, hold the PROP
MAN switch in either INNER or OUTER to power the corre-
sponding heating elements through a manual override relay.
On BB-816, 825 to 990, 992 and subsequent; BL-30 and
subsequent, and all four-bladed props, each propeller blade
has a single heating element. With the PROP switch in AUTO,
the deicer timer cycles power to the right and then left propeller
heating elements for 90 seconds each. If the automatic system
fails, hold the PROP MAN in MANUAL to power the heating ele-
ments through the manual override relays.
Windshield Anti-Icing
Electric heating elements embedded in the windshield lamina-
tions provide protection against the formation of ice, while air
from the cabin heating system prevents fogging. Heavy duty
windshield wipers provide improved visibility during rainy flight
conditions.
With the pilot or copilot WSHLD ANTI-ICE switch in NORMAL,
an automatic temperature controller senses the windshield
temperature and then attempts to maintain it at approximately
100 to 105°F by energizing the normal heat relay as necessary.
In this mode, both the inboard and outboard areas of the wind-
shield are heated.
With the switch in HI, the “high” heat relay switch is energized to
apply heat to a more concentrated, essential viewing area of the
windshield. The outboard two-thirds of the windshield is heated.
If the NORMAL position is insufficient to raise the windshield
temperature above freezing, switching to HI nearly doubles the
available heat to the smaller windshield area.
Brake Deice
An optional brake deice system uses instrument bleed air to
warm the main wheel brakes to prevent ice and slush build-up.
With the BRAKE DEICE switch in ON, the left and right sole-
noid shutoff valves in the wheel well open to admit bleed air to
a distributor manifold. The manifold then directs bleed air
toward the brake assembly.
To prevent overheat damage, a timing circuit turns the deice
system off 10 minutes after gear is retracted by closing the
solenoid valve.

Brakes
Each main gear wheel carries a multiple disc brake assembly.
Each assembly consists of two rotating discs keyed to the
wheel, a piston housing, carrier and lining (stationary disc), and
torque plate. The stationary disc and torque plate provide a fric-
tion surface for the rotating discs.
Depressing either set of brake pedals compresses the master
cylinders’ piston rod. Piston rod movement generates hydraulic
pressure that flows through rigid and flexible lines to the brake
assembly. The brake assembly pistons then extend to force the
linings and discs together; braking occurs. Releasing brake
pressure allows the brake assembly pistons to retract, the lin-
ings move away from the discs, and release of the brakes.
Aircraft BB-2 to 665; BL-1 to 8 have shuttle valves between
the pilot’s and copilot’s brake master cylinders. In this arrange-
ment brake pedal application shifts a shuttle valve to isolate the
opposite side’s master cylinders. The active pedals then provide
the braking pressure. On aircraft BB-666 and subsequent;
BL-9 and subsequent, the pilot’s and copilot’s master cylinders
are in series so that pilot braking pressure first flows through the
copilot’s master cylinders before reaching the brake assemblies.
With pilot brake pedals depressed and brake pressure built-up,
pulling the PARKING BRAKE handle out closes two parking
brake valves. This traps brake pressure within the system to
hold the parking brakes. Before releasing the parking brakes,
depress the pilot brake pedals and then release the PARKING
BRAKE handle.

Oxygen System
The oxygen bottle supplies both the passenger and crew oxy-
gen systems through an integral pressure regulator. The bottle
has high pressure ports for the fill line and bottle pressure gage.
If it overpressurizes, a relief disc bursts to vent the oxygen
overboard to the atmosphere.
Bottle size depends on aircraft model and options. On aircraft
BB-44 to 309, 311 to 328; earlier aircraft with kits 101-5006
and 101-5007 or with the autodeployment system installed,
the 22 ft3 bottle is standard; 49, 64, or 76 ft3 bottles are options.
On aircraft BB-310, 239 to 1438, 1440 to 1443; BL-1 to 139,
the 22 ft3 steel bottle is standard; 49, 64, 76, or 115 ft3 bottles
are options. On aircraft BB-1439, 1444 and subsequent; BL-
139 and subsequent, the 22 ft3 bottle is standard; 50, 77, or
115 ft3 bottles are options.
Crew System
Oxygen first flows through the bottle regulator where normal
bottle pressure is reduced to 70 mechanically operated by the
PULL ON SYS READY knob. With the knob pulled out, the
shutoff valve opens and oxygen flow is available to crew masks
and the first aid mask.
The crew oxygen masks are diluter-demand types that provide
oxygen as the wearer inhales. Each mask has a NORMAL
(N)/100% lever to control oxygen dilution. With the lever in
NORMAL, the mask dilutes the oxygen with ambient air for use
up to an altitude of 20,000 ft. Placing the lever in the 100% posi-
tion provides undiluted oxygen.
Passenger System
For the passenger oxygen system, oxygen continues its flow
from the mechanically operated crew system shutoff valve to
a second shutoff valve controlled by a barometric pressure
switch. When cabin altitude reaches 12,500 ft, the barometric
pressure switch opens the passenger shutoff valve and oxygen
flows into the passenger mask autodeployment boxes. The
pressure deploys the passenger masks and pulling the lanyard
pin on the mask starts oxygen flow to the mask. Pressure in
supply lines of the passenger system illuminates the green
PASS OXY ON annunciator.
Override System
If the barometric switch fails, pull the PASSENGER OXYGEN
O’RIDE knob to mechanically open the passenger system shut-
off valve. When passenger oxygen is no longer required, push
the O’RIDE knob in and pull the OXYGEN CONTROL CB to
stop oxygen flow to the passenger system.

Powerplant
Two Pratt & Whitney Canada (PWC) PT6A-41 or -42 turboprop
engines power the aircraft. The PT6A is a lightweight, reverse-
flow, free-turbine engine that drives a three or four-bladed
constant-speed, full-feathering reversible propeller.
Each engine produces approximately 850 shaft-horsepower,
2,230 foot-pounds of torque, and approximately 135 lbs of jet
thrust. The PT6A-41 and -42 engines are essentially the same
except that the -42 engine’s higher operating temperature pro-
vides better performance at high ambient temperatures.
Operation
The free-turbine turboprop engine compresses air, mixes it with
fuel, and ignites the mixture to produce a high-temperature,
high-speed gas.
The combustion cycle begins as air passes through an annular
(ring- shaped) plenum chamber formed by the compressor inlet
case. The air flows through the compressor where each suc-
cessive compressor stage (stator and rotor pair) converts air
velocity into increasing air pressure. After exiting the compres-
sor section, vanes straighten the airflow before it reaches the
combustion section.
As the high pressure air enters the annular combustion cham-
ber, it changes direction 180° before mixing with fuel. A circular
arrangement of 14 simplex atomizers spray fuel into the com-
bustion chamber where air and fuel mix. Two igniters protrud-
ing into the combustion chamber spark to ignite the mixture.
Once combustion is started, the igniters are no longer required
because the combustion process is self-sustaining.
The rapidly expanding, high-temperature gases then reverse
direction to travel through the exit zone. Inlet guide vanes
straighten the gas flow before it reaches the single-stage com-
pressor turbine. The turbine, in turn, drives the compressor
through a shaft at the rear of the engine.
After passing through the compressor turbine, the gas flow dri-
ves the two-stage power turbine connected to the gearbox. The
gearbox drives the propeller shaft. The exhaust gases exit the
engine through the exhaust duct and stacks.
Powerplant Systems
Powerplant systems include:
■ lubrication
■ fuel and fuel control
■ ignition
■ engine air.
Lubrication
The engine’s integral lubrication system provides filtered oil
under pressure to lubricate, cool, and clean engine bearings
and gearboxes. This system includes:
■ oil tank
■ centrifugal breather
■ chip detector
■ pressure pump
■ pressure relief/pressurizing valve
■ filter
■ oil cooler
■ fuel heater
■ scavenge pumps.
The accessory gearbox powers the oil pump as it draws oil from
the tank and provides it under pressure to the oil filter. An exter-
nal pressure regulating and relief valve maintains oil pump
delivery pressure within a set operating range. If oil pressure
exceeds a set value (i.e., cold viscous oil), the relief valve
opens to prevent excess system pressure by directing oil back
to the tank.
The oil filter removes contaminants from the oil supply before it
reaches the engine’s bearings and gearboxes. If sufficient con-
tamination accumulates on the filter element to restrict oil flow,
a bypass valve bypasses oil around the filter element.
Oil lubricates the No. 1 bearing first. This bearing, like Nos. 2
and 3 bearings, has a fine strainer that prevents extraneous
matter from reaching the bearings. Nozzles direct oil to all of
the bearing faces to ensure efficient lubrication.
A common oil supply line from the oil filter outlet supplies the
rest of the engine bearings through a boss on the engine case.
From this boss, the oil supply splits into three lines to supply the
Nos. 2, 3, and 4 bearings and gearbox, front accessories, and
propeller, respectively.
After lubricating the bearings and gearboxes, oil drains by gravity
into sumps. The centrifugal breather removes entrapped air from
the bearing and gearbox sumps and vents it to atmosphere. Oil is
then directed back to the tank by one of the scavenge pump ele-
ments. When oil is above a set temperature, a thermostatic
bypass/check valve directs oil moved by the external scavenge
pump through an oil cooler. Oil then flows from the cooler to the
oil tank.
A pressure sensor and temperature bulb in the common sup-
ply line downstream of the filter drive the oil pressure and
temperature gages.
The pressurized fuel then enters the fuel control unit (FCU).
Based on throttle lever position, ambient air pressure, engine
torque, and other inputs, the FCU regulates necessary fuel flow
for engine starting, acceleration, constant speed operation,
deceleration, and shut-down.
A torque limiter monitors torquemeter oil pressure to provide
engine protection. If the engine produces excessive torque, the
limiter bleeds off governing air pressure within the FCU to
reduce fuel flow.
From the FCU, metered fuel flows to the fuel divider and dump
valve. A minimum pressurizing valve in the output line to the
fuel divider maintains sufficient pressure to maintain correct
fuel metering. The divider controls fuel supplied to the primary
and secondary fuel manifolds. In turn, the manifolds supply
their primary and secondary fuel nozzles.
During engine start, the flow divider supplies the primary
manifolds. As the engine accelerates and fuel pressure propor-
tionately increases, the divider begins supplying the secondary
manifolds.
During engine shutdown, the divider dumps fuel. Once the
dump valve opens, fuel flows into an EPA collector tank (BB-2
to 665), or pressure in a purge tank (BB-665 and subsequent)
forces fuel from the manifolds into the combustion chamber. In
this chamber fuel manifolds distribute the fuel to primary and
secondary fuel nozzles. Each nozzle provides a finely atomized
mist of fuel into the combustion section.
Ignition System
An engine’s ignition system consists of an ignition exciter,
leads, two igniters, ignition switch, and auto-ignition system.
Place the IGNITION AND ENGINE START switch in ON to
close the associated ignition power relay and power the ignition
exciter; the IGNITION ON annunciator illuminates.
The exciter converts the relatively low voltage DC input into a
high voltage output. The exciter’s capacitor continues to charge
until the stored energy is sufficient to jump a spark gap. The
exciter then discharges to supply the igniters.
Place the switch in STARTER ONLY to supply power to the
engine’s starter only; the ignition system is unpowered.
An automatic ignition system monitors engine torque to provide
automatic system operation if torque drops below 400 ft-lbs.
With the ENG AUTO IGNITION switch in ARM. If torque drops
below approximately 400 ft-lbs, the pressure switch energizes
the ignition power relay to power the ignition exciter. Once
torque exceeds 400 ft-lbs, the system de-activates.
Engine Air
Compressor interstage (P2.5) air provides bearing compartment
sealing and turbine disk cooling. Compressor discharge (P3) air
supplies airframe services such as air conditioning and pres-
surization, discussed in the environmental section.
The relationship between P2.5 and P3 air control compressor
bleed valves that discharge P2.5 air to atmosphere to prevent
engine stalling at low engine RPM settings. As engine power
increases and airflow smooths, the valves slowly close until at
high power settings (>90% N1 ), they are completely closed.
Propellers
The aircraft’s three or four-bladed constant speed, full-feathering,
reversible propellers are manufactured by Hartzell or McCauley.
The propeller blades are attached to a hub, which has a servo
piston, low pitch stop rod(s), low pitch stop collar, feathering
spring, and beta yoke. The servo piston moves the blades to
change pitch in response to oil pressure supplied by a primary
governor. Counterweights on each propeller blade assisted by
the feathering spring move the blades to the feathered position
with loss of controlling oil pressure.
In response to propeller lever setting, the constant-speed pri-
mary governor hydraulically controls propeller (N2) RPM by
changing the propeller’s pitch. The primary governor range is
from 2,000 to 1,600 RPM.
The primary governor maintains selected propeller speed by
decreasing or increasing blade angle respectively. Decreasing
blade angle speeds the propeller while increasing the angle
slows it.
If the primary governor fails to limit propeller speed, the over-
speed governor acts at approximately 2,080 RPM to reduce oil
pressure to the servo piston. Reduced oil pressure reduces
propeller speed by moving the blades to a higher blade angle.
A mechanically monitored hydraulic stop sets the propeller’s
low pitch stop to prevent inadvertent propeller reversing.
Raising the power lever aft past the normal idle stop allows
the propellers to move toward the reverse thrust setting. Oil pres-
sure to the servo piston then drives the propellers through the
zero thrust angle (beta range) to the full reverse blade angle.
Pulling the power levers further aft increases engine power to the
maximum reverse thrust range. The primary governor’s fuel top-
ping mode reduces engine thrust to limit propeller RPM to 95%

■ Accelerate-Stop graphs
■ Accelerate-Go graphs
■ Net Gradient of Climb graphs
(Reference FAR 25.109, 25.111, 25.115, and 25.121)
The performance presented using this criteria is predicated on
the autofeather system being armed and operable.
The Ground Minimum Control Speed (VMCG) has been deter-
mined to be 84 knots. At this speed, control within 25 feet of the
runway centerline is possible.
The flowchart on the following page illustrates the steps neces-
sary to determine the maximum allowable takeoff weight.

In this example, the most significant effect of using flaps 40% for
takeoff is a reduced Accelerate-Go figure which will result in
achieving a larger margin of safety on this particular runway.
Should an engine suddenly fail at V1, the airplane would not lift
off until passing the end of the runway if flaps were not used for
takeoff. By selecting Flaps Approach for takeoff, Accelerate-Stop
becomes limiting and remains within the available runway length.

In-Runway Lighting
Runway Centerline Lighting System (RCLS). Runway cen-
terline lights are installed on some precision approach runways
to facilitate landing under adverse visibility conditions. They are
located along the runway centerline and are spaced at 50-foot
intervals. When viewed from the landing threshold, the runway
centerline lights are white until the last 3,000 feet of the runway.
The white lights begin to alternate with red for the next 2,000
feet, and for the last 1,000 feet of the runway, all centerline
lights are red.
Touchdown Zone Lights (TDZL). Touchdown zone lights are
installed on some precision approach runways to indicate the
touchdown zone when landing under adverse visibility condi-
tions. They consist of two rows of transverse light bars dis-
posed symmetrically about the runway centerline. The system
consists of steady-burning white lights which start 100 feet
beyond the landing threshold and extend to 3,000 feet beyond
the landing threshold or to the midpoint of the runway, whichev-
er is less.
Taxiway Lead-Off Lights. Taxiway lead-off lights extend from
the runway centerline to a point on an exit taxiway to expedite
movement of aircraft from the runway. These lights alternate
green and yellow from the runway centerline to the runway
holding position or the ILS/MLS critical area, as appropriate.
Land and Hold Short Lights. Land and hold short lights are
used to indicate the hold short point on certain runways which
are approved for Land and Hold Short Operations (LAHSO).
Land and hold short lights consist of a row of pulsing white
lights installed across the runway at the hold short point. Where
installed, the lights will be on anytime that LAHSO is in effect.
These lights will be off when LAHSO is not in effect.
Taxiway Lights
Taxiway Edge Lights. Taxiway edge lights are used to outline
the edges of taxiways during periods of darkness or restricted
visibility conditions. These fixtures emit blue light.
Stop Bar Lights. Stop bar lights, when installed, are used to
confirm the ATC clearance to enter or cross the active runway
in low visibility conditions (below 1,200 feet Runway Visual
Range). A stop bar consists of a row of red, unidirectional,
steady-burning in-pavement lights installed across the entire
taxiway at the runway holding position, and elevated steady-
burning red lights on each side. A controlled stop bar is operat-
ed in conjunction with the taxiway centerline lead-on lights
which extend from the stop bar toward the runway. Following
the ATC clearance to proceed, the stop bar is turned off and the
lead-on lights are turned on. The stop bar and lead-on lights are
automatically reset by a sensor or backup timer.

Emergency Information
Pilot Responsibility and Authority
The pilot in command of an aircraft is directly responsible for
and is the final authority as to the operation of that aircraft. In
an emergency requiring immediate action, the pilot in com-
mand may deviate from any rule in 14 CFR Part 91, Subpart A,
General, and Subpart B, Flight Rules, to the extent required to
meet that emergency.
• REFERENCE-14 CFR Section 91.3(b).
If the emergency authority of 14 CFR Section 91.3(b) is used to
deviate from the provisions of an ATC clearance, the pilot in
command must notify ATC as soon as possible and obtain an
amended clearance.
Unless deviation is necessary under the emergency authority
of 14 CFR Section 91.3, pilots of IFR flights experiencing two-
way radio communications failure are expected to adhere to
the procedures prescribed under “IFR operations, two-way
radio communications failure”.
• REFERENCE-14 CFR Section 91.185.
Emergency Conditions
An emergency can be either a distress or urgency condition as
defined in the Pilot/Controller Glossary. Pilots do not hesitate to
declare an emergency when they are faced with distress condi-
tions such as fire, mechanical failure, or structural damage.
However, some are reluctant to report an urgency condition
when they encounter situations which may not be immediately
perilous, but are potentially catastrophic. An aircraft is in at
least an urgency condition the moment the pilot becomes
doubtful about position, fuel endurance, weather, or any other
condition that could adversely affect flight safety. This is the
time to ask for help, not after the situation has developed into a
distress condition.
Pilots who become apprehensive for their safety for any reason
should request assistance immediately. Ready and willing help
is available in the form of radio, radar, direction finding stations,
and other aircraft. Delay has caused accidents and cost lives.
Safety is not a luxury! Take action!
7 Nothing found. NN
Will continue search.
Circulation
Locate carotid artery pulse; hold 10 seconds. If no pulse:
• Begin external chest compressions by locating hand posi-
tion two fingers above notch and placing heel of hand on
breastbone.
• Perform 15 compressions of 1½ to 2 inches at a rate of 80 to
100 compressions per minute. (Count, “One and two and
three and...,” etc.) Come up smoothly, keeping hand contact
with victim’s chest at all times.
• Repeat the cycle of two breaths, 15 compressions, until victim’s
pulse and breathing return. If only the pulse is present, con-
tinue rescue breathing until medical assistance is available.
