Utilizing an airplane as intended by the manufacturer, combined with sound inspection and maintenance practices , forms the basis for assuring the airplane remains airworthy and safe to operate.

Some types of airplanes (e. g., turbopropeller powered) may have VMCA determined with automatic propeller pitch control devices that may have substantially more drag from an engine operating at reduced power, to simulate an engine failure, than with an inoperative engine.

In addition to information required by Part 36 of the Federal Aviation Regulations, the manufacturer shall provide strongly worded advice to be used by the operator to minimize the noise impact of the airplane during operation at, or in the vicinity of, airports.

Normal procedures such as spin recovery techniques may also be included in this Section of an acrobatic category airplane Handbook.

Environmental Systems section shall contain information necessary for safe operation of Oxygen Systems, including capacity and duration.

If the Check List lists "engine run-up", the amplified procedures would explain how to perform the run-up.

The Check List may also contain supplemental information pertinent to the operation of the airplane, such as performance data, optional equipment operation, etc., that the pilot might routinely use.

The Check List may be arranged by "Challenge" and "Response" headings for two pilot airplanes or by "Item" and "Condition" headings for single pilot airplanes. Under either method, the item to be checked is listed with the desired condition stated.

Airspeeds used in this Section shall be specified in Indicated Airspeed, assuming zero instrument error, in order to make the information as directly usable as possible.

Fig.1 in pages 11 and 12 are typical plating/skin illustrations as specified in System Chapters 53,54, 55 and 57.

A separate shading pattern to distinguish between supply, pressure, return, etc, shall be used. The same coding for each individual system shall be used throughout the manual.
