Emergency Gear Extension 1 / 3
NOTE
Follow this procedure in case of any doubt about the gear extension.
CAUTION
Do not enter icing conditions. This could adversely increase drag and weight
due to ice accumulation, and lock wheels and struts.
Climb performance will be degraded by 50%.
Cruise IAS speed will be reduced compared to a clean airplane, because of the
drag. This should be taken into account when calculating the airplane range.
