REFERENCE

NOTE
If brakes have been overhauled they should
be “burned in” by applying near maximum
braking (short of locking) for one or two
landings or high speed taxi runs. After this.
brakes should be checked for any tendency
to drag.
*2. Flight instruments - Check for
normal operation.
*3. Nosewheel steering - Check.
No turning tendency should ex-
ist while taxiing straight ahead
with the same RPM on both
engines with no braking and no
rudder applied to either side.
(This check must be performed
with minimum cross wind.)
Check freedom of movement
and ability to turn aircraft us-
ing rudder pedals, engines and
brakes. Note any indication of
nosewheel vibration or shimmy
during takeoff or landing.
*4. Magnetic compass - Check for
B4
