Before Takeoff
During cold weather operations, the engine should be properly warmed up
before takeoff. In most cases this is accomplished when the oil temperature
has reached at least 100 °F (38 °C). In warm or hot weather, precautions
should be taken to avoid overheating during prolonged ground engine
operation. Additionally, long periods of idling may cause fouled spark
plugs.
• WARNING •
Do not takeoff with frost, ice, snow, or other contamination on the fu-
selage, wing, stabilizers, and control surfaces.
