NOTE
: To account for anticipated variations in ambient temperature or water
temperature at a scheduled landing site, the following procedure should be used
to maintain the minimum 2. 0 psig inflation pressure.
For ambient (air) temperature or water temperature colder than the temperature
at initial inflation, float inflation pressure should be increased 0.5 psig (above) the
minimum 2.0 psig) for each 15
°
F decrease in temperature anticipated.
Example:
70
°
F Ambient temperature at time of inflation minus
45
°
F Anticipated water temperature at scheduled landing sited equals
25
°
F Temperature decrease
Inflation pressure change to account for temperature change
(25
° B
15
°
) x 0.5 psig = 0.8 psig
Minimum float inflation pressure for this operation would be
2.0 psig + 0.8 psig = 2.8 psig
NOTE
: Temperature increase will increase float inflation pressure and need not be
considered.
Center of gravity (C.G. Envelope):
NOTE
: The installation of the float kit contributes to an aft shift of the C.G. For conditions
requiring pilot only operations, ballast will be required in the utility stowage
compartment or front seat. The operator should determine the proper amount of
ballast required to remain within the aft C. G. limit for the zero fuel condition .
Placards:
Placards 1, and 2, are required when the utility floats are installed.
