Creating Search/Grid Corners

Many setups require that you enter grid corners or perhaps just one point such as a Sector or Expanding Square Grids. It may be quicker to follow the following procedures to get the basic waypoint entered and then fine tune the information rather than entering individual waypoints. Manual calculation of search area corners:

P0 = Initial Point = center of the 1st search leg P1 = “right side” = search track + 90⁰ at ½ search leg P2 = “left side” = search track - 90⁰ at ½ search leg P3 = “right side end search” = P1 at search track at box length P4 = “left side end search” = P2 at search track at box length

Example: “Search at N32-30/W081-30, 090⁰, for 15nm using 10nm

legs and 1nm spacing.”

P0 = N32-30/W081-30 P1 = P0 180⁰/5nm (090⁰ + 90⁰ at ½ 10nm leg) P2 = P0 360⁰ /5nm (090⁰ - 90⁰ at ½ 10nm leg) P3 = P1 090⁰/15nm P4 = P2 090⁰ /15nm

Creating Search/Grid Corners (continued)

Using the Displayed Map to enter search area corners: 1. RANGE to 30 NM using the RANGE Knob. 30 NM range will create a 7.5

minute Lat/Long grid. 2. Turn outer FMS knob to WPT Group then inner knob to select USER

WAYPOINT page. (Page 5). 3. Press JOYSTICK to turn on the pointer. 4. Move pointer to northwest corner of selected grid. NOTE: Write down the Lat/Long of the grid. 5. Press NEW ▲soft key. Waypoint menu opens. Note: The cursor will turn to a white crosshair at the point of the arrow. 6. Name waypoint by using the Large/Small FMS knobs. 7. Press ENT to save. 8. Press the JOYSTICK to turn on the pointer. 9. Cursor to the next desired corner and Press the NEW soft key. 10. Repeat the sequence to record the remaining corners. 11. You will see an orange square for each corner you created. 12. The waypoints created can be used for creating a “direct to” flight plan by

Pressing “direct to” key on the PFD or MFD. NOTE: If you “missed the mark,” adjust waypoint Lat/Long before use.

LEANING USING EXHAUST GAS TEMPERATURE (EGT) EGT is displayed on the ENGINE and LEAN pages. The ENGINE page has a horizontal scale with a temperature indicator (inverted triangle) with a number representing the cylinder with the highest EGT. The LEAN page provides vertical bar graph displays showing EGT for all cylinders. The cylinder with the highest EGT is shown in cyan (light blue). The numerical value for the highest EGT is located below the bar. The EGT and Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) value for any cylinder may be shown by using the CYL SLCT softkey to select the desired cylinder. To aid in leaning, push the ENGINE, LEAN and ASSIST softkeys. ∆PEAK °F will display below the EGT °F numerical value. Lean by slowly turning the Mixture Control knob in the counterclockwise direction while monitoring EGTs. As EGTs increase, continue to lean until the hottest (cyan) cylinder reaches Peak EGT. This is identified by the

EGT bar graph for that cylinder changing to cyan with a hollow bar at the top. Note the ∆PEAK °F and FFLOW GPH values for the first peaked cylinder. Peak EGT is represented by ∆PEAK 0°F, if ∆PEAK °F value is negative (-) the mixture can be on the lean side of peak.

LEANING USING EXHAUST GAS TEMP (EGT) (continued) Enrichen the mixture by slowly turning the mixture control clockwise and monitor both fuel flow and EGTs until the leanest cylinder returns to peak EGT (∆PEAK 0°F) or desired setting based on the EGT Table. ∆PEAK °F values rich of peak will also be a negative (-) value. The lean assist system calculation is defined such that the peak EGT is the highest value and any lesser value is represented with a negative (-) value, whether on the lean or rich side of the peak.

EGT LEAN TABLE NOTE: Textron Lycoming, has not approved operation of the engine at fuel flow rates (mixture settings) less than necessary to reach Peak EGT in the leanest cylinder (the first cylinder to reach peak EGT). Use FULL RICH mixture when operating the engine above 80% power.

GROUND LEANING PROCEDURES

For best fuel economy during normal operations, the following procedures are recommended.

1. After engine start and for all ground operations, set the throttle to 1200 RPM and lean the mixture for maximum RPM. After leaning, set the throttle to the appropriate RPM for ground operations. Leave the mixture at this setting until beginning the BEFORE TAKEOFF checklist. After the BEFORE TAKEOFF checklist is complete re-lean the mixture as described above until ready for TAKEOFF checklist.

2. Lean the mixture for placarded fuel flows during maximum continuous power climbs.

3. Lean the mixture at any altitude for RECOMMENDED LEAN or BEST ECONOMY fuel flows when using 80% or less power.

MIXTURE DESCRIPTION EXHAUST GAS TEMPERATURE (EGT)

Recommended Lean (POH) 50°F Rich of Peak EGT

Best Economy Peak EGT

Best Power 125°F Rich of Peak EGT
