TM 55-1510-220-10 checks  that  the  cabin  is  pressurizing.    Both  pilots  check the    wings    and    nacelles    for    fuel    or    oil    leaks.        The procedural steps after takeoff are as follows: 1. Gear- UP. 2. Flaps - UP. 3. Landing lights - OFF. 4. Climb power- Set. 5. PROP SYNC Switch - As required. (6.) YAW DAMP switch - As required. (7.) Autofeather switch - As required. (8.) Brake de-ice - As required. (9.) Windshield anti-ice - As required. NOTE Turn windshield anti-ice on to normal when passing    10,000    feet    AGL    or    prior    to entering    the    freezing    level    (whichever comes   first).      Leave   on   until   no   longer required  during  descent  for  landing.   High temperature  may  be  selected  as  required after   a   minimum   warm-up   period   of   15 minutes. 10. Cabin     pressurization     Check,     adjust     RATE control  knob  so  that  cabin  rate-of-climb  equals one-third aircraft rate-of-climb. (11)    Wings and nacelles - Check. (12)    Flare/chaff    dispenser    safety    pin    (electronic module)   - Remove. (13)    Chaff function selector switch - As required. 8-42.  CLIMB. a. Cruise   Climb.      Cruise   climb   is   performed   at   a speed  which  is  the  best  combination  of  climb,  fuel  burn- off,  and  distance  covered.    Set  propellers  at  1900  RPM and torque as required.  Adhere to the following airspeed schedule as closely as possible. SL to 10,000 feet 144 KIAS 10,000 to 20,000 feet 134 KIAS 20,000 to 31,000 feet 123 KIAS b. Climb  Maximum  Rate.    Maximum  rate  of  climb performance  is  obtained  by  setting  propellers  at  2,000 RPM,   torque   at   100%   (or   maximum   climb   TGT),   and maintaining best rate-of-climb airspeed.  Refer to Chapter 7 for best rate-of-climb airspeed for specific weights. 8-43.  CRUISE. Cruise power settings are entirely dependent upon the prevailing  circumstances  and  the  type  of  mission  being flown.    Refer  to  Chapter  7  for  airspeed,  power  settings, and  fuel  flow  information.    The  following  procedures  are applicable to all cruise requirements. 1. Power  Set.    Refer  to  the  cruise  power  graphs contained in Chapter 7.  To account for ram air temperature     increase,     it     is     essential     that temperature   be   obtained   at   stabilized   cruise airspeed. NOTE A new engine operated at the torque value presented  in  the  cruise  power  charts  will show  a  TGT  margin  below  the  maximum cruise    limit.            Maximum    cruise    power settings     for     temperature     and     altitude (derived  from  Chapter  7)  if  exceeded  will adversely affect engine life.  With ice vanes retracted,  if  cruise  torque  settings  shown on cruise power charts cannot be obtained without  exceeding  TGT  limits,  the  engine should be inspected. 2. Ice  &  rain  switches  As  required.    Insure  that anti-ice  equipment  is  activated  before  entering icing conditions. NOTE Ice  vanes  must  be  extended  when operating    in    visible    moisture    at +5°C  or  less.    Visible  moisture  is moisture  in  any  form  (clouds,  ice crystals,  snow,  rain,  sleet,  hail,  or any combination of these). (3.) Auxiliary fuel gages - Monitor.  Insure that fuel is     being     transferred     from     auxiliary     tanks. (Chapter 2, Section IV.) (4.) Altimeters   -   Check.      Verify   that   altimeter setting complies with transition altitude requirement Change 6   8-20
