FUNCTIONAL CHECK
FLIGHT CHECKLIST
b. PCL - OFF after engine shutdown
confirmed and PMU FAIL warning
message illuminates; make sure
propeller moves to feather immediately
NOTE
Failure to wait for the PMU FAIL warning message
to illuminate prior to moving the PCL to OFF allows
the PMU to accomplish feathering of the propeller
through the 2-stage prop servo valve within the PIU.
If this occurs, the feather dump solenoid has not
been checked - the PMU must be off-line to check
proper function of the feather dump solenoid and
valve.
NOTE
When accomplishing this check, the propeller
should move to feather (following movement of the
PCL to OFF) at the same rate that it does when the
engine is shut down normally - failure to do so
indicates that the feather dump valve has not been
actuated.
c. Ensure engine propeller comes to a
complete stop prior to resetting the
firewall shutoff handle

Resetting the firewall shutoff handle prior to the
propeller stopping may result in the fuel filter bypass
popping on the fuel filter housing.

d. Flaps - TO. Verify flaps extend to TO
position
e. Flaps - LDG. Verify flaps extend fully to
LDG (25 seconds max)
f. Landing gear handle - DOWN (gear

should not move)
NOTE
Nose gear door light extinguishes, audio warning
ceases.

FUNCTIONAL CHECK
FLIGHT CHECKLIST
NOTE
Audio warning will sound with the gear down and
LDG gear handle up as airspeed slows through 120
KIAS.
g. SPDBRK OUT - Green advisory
message not illuminated
h. EHYD PX LO - Amber caution
message may illuminate
NOTE
Nominal gear extension is 5 to 7 seconds, 25
seconds is maximum allowable.
NOTE
When performing the emergency gear extension,
the hydraulic system pressure may momentarily
enter the caution range and illuminate the CHK ENG
message on the EICAS display. This does not
indicate improper operation of the hydraulic system
or a system malfunction.
ABCD 2. Normal landing - Perform IAW flight
manual and add the following checks:
a. No tendency for brakes to fade or bleed
down
b. Braking is symmetrical
c. Brakes do not drag after release
d. Nose wheel centers after brake release
e. Nose wheel does not vibrate or shimmy
J. After landing and postflight:
AB 1. Propeller servo valve check:
a. PROP SYS circuit breaker - Pull
b. PCL - OFF; make sure propeller moves
to feather
Page 24 Chapter P

FUNCTIONAL CHECK
FLIGHT CHECKLIST
NOTE
When accomplishing this check, the propeller must
move to feather (following movement of the PCL to
OFF) at the same rate that it does when the engine
is shut down normally - failure to do so indicates that
the propeller is not being feathered by prop servo
valve.
c. PROP SYS circuit breaker - Reset
ABCD 2. Postflight walk around:
a. Fluid leaks - Check around aircraft and
engine compartment
b. Panels - Verify closed and latched
c. Gravity fuel caps - Open to verify ease
of operation; check for foreign objects
and condition of retaining lanyard
ABCD 3. Applicable maintenance records and
debriefing - Complete
ABCD 4. Flight data recorder - Download FDR data
and review as required if any unusual
indications were noted during flight

TEST TECHNIQUE:
1. Record fuel weight to determine weight and c.g.
2. Set trim tab - full nose up
115 3. Establish 10,000 ft, level flight, at 115 KIAS
4. Reduce power to ~ ~ 16% (slight descent acceptable)
5. As aircraft slows, note airspeed at which F = 0, with no trim change
113
6. Enter chart with weight and c.g. to determine the maximum airspeed for FS = 0
7. An airspeed less than or equal to the computed speed is acceptable
