BAGGAGE COMPARTMENTS
Your aircraft has been designed for passenger carrying capability. As
a result, no provisions have been made for the transportation of cargo.
There are five baggage locations: two in the fuselage nose section, one in
the aft cabin area and one location in the aft portion of each engine nacelle.
These baggage areas are intended primarily for low density items such
as luggage and brief cases. With the exception of the nose baggage loca-
tions, the floors of these areas are primary structure. Therefore, care
should be exercised during loading and unloading to prevent damage.

When loading high density objects, insure that adequate protection is

OPERATING DETAILS
PREFLIGHT INSPECTION
The Preflight Inspection, described in Section I, is recommended for
the first flight of the day. Inspection procedures for subsequent flights
are normally limited to brief checks of the.tail surface hinges, fuel and
oil quantity and security of fuel and oil filler caps. If the aircraft has -
been in extended storage, has had recent major maintenance or has been
operated from marginal airports, a more extensive exterior inspection
is recommended.
After major maintenance has been performed, the flight and trim tab
controls should be double-checked for free and correct movement and
security. The security of all inspection plates on the aircraft should be
checked following periodic inspections. Since radio and heater mainten-
anee requires the mechanic to work in the nose compartment, the nose
compartment doors are opened for access to equipment. Therefore, it
is important after such maintenance to double-check the security of these
doors. If the aircraft has been waxed or polished, check the external
static pressure source holes for stoppage.

FUEL SELECTOR VALVE HANDLES
The fuel selector valve placards are marked LEFT ENGINE OFF,
LEFT MAIN, RIGHT MAIN for the left engine selector and RIGHT EN-
GINE OFF, RIGHT MAIN, LEFT MAIN for the right engine selector. ...
The crossfeed position of each selector valve is the one marked for the
opposite main tank.
The fuel selector valve handles form the pointers for the selectors.
The ends of the handles are arrow-shaped and point to the position on the
selector placard which corresponds to the valve position.
NOTE
For additional information, refer to Figure 2-3 for Fuel System Sche-
matic, and Section VII for Optional Auxiliary and Optional Wing Locker
Fuel information.
The LOW position runs the auxiliary fuel pumps at low speed and also
the auxiliary tank in-line fuel pumps if installed, providing 5. 5 PSI pres-
sure for vapor clearing and purging. The ON position runs the auxiliary
anmw aanssaua
fuel pumps at low speed, as long as the engine-driven pumps are functíon-
iaaa
ing. With an engine-driven pump failure and the switch in the ON position,
the auxiliary pump on that side will switch to high speed automatically,

sents the desired fuel flow for recommended lean mixture at the specified

--- --
power computer and the Fuel Flow Management information below.
to i 1 FUELFLOW MANAGEMENT
When range is not a primary consideration for setting the fuel flows,
the Best Power Scale provided on the power computer should be used.
This setting will result in a higher airspeed as well as increase the en-
gine and component life because of the lower operating temperatures.
When the optional Economy Mixture Indicator (EGT) is provided, refer
to Section VII.
The fuel quantity indicators are calibrated in pounds and will accurate-
ly indicate the weight of fuel contained in the tanks. Since fuel density
varies with temperature, a full tank will weigh more on a cold day than
on a warm day. This will be reflected by the weight shown on the gage.
A gallons scale is provided in blue on the indicator for convenience in
allowing the pilot to determine the approximate volume of fuel on board.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Electrical is supplied by a 28 volt, negative-ground,
energy direct
current system powered by an alternator on each engine. A 24 volt
battery is located in the left stub wing. An optional external power re-

The aircraft may b4 operated in either the PRESSURIZED (including Figure 6-11
both PRESS and DEPRESS positions) mode or the DUMP (RAM) mode.
The mode selection is made with the cabin vent control knob or cabin
pressurization switch, which are located to the right and below the pilot's
control wheel. Mode of operation should be selected prior to takeoff. If
a mode selection must be made while airborne, the cabin vent control
should be moved very slowly to minimize pressure transients which
would cause discomfort to the passengers.
The two switches which control pressurization air flow, Figure 2-9,
Imve a NORMAL and DUMP position. In the NORMAL position, pressur-
ization air enters the cabin; in the DUMP position, pressurization air is
expelled overboard prior to entering the cabin. Both switches should re-
main in the NORMAL position whether operating in the ram mode or the
pressurized mode. The DUMP position should be selectegonly in the
event that contamination of pressurization air is suspected. The pres-
surization switches and indicators of your Model 414 aircraft, located to
the left and adjacent to the pilot's control wheel, consist of two cabin
pressurization air switches, a cabin rate-of-climb indicator, a combina-
tion cabin altimeter and differential pressure indicator, a cabin
pressurize-depressurize switch and a cabin vent control knob. A warn-
ing light which illuminates at approximately 10, 000 feet cabin altitude in-
dicating a need for oxygen is located in the annunciator paneL

The cabin altiinde is maintained at 8000 feet at all aircraft altitudes be-
tween 8000 and 20, 100 feet. From 20, 100 feet to the operating ceiling of .
30, 000 feet, 4. 2 PSI differential is maintained between cabin and atmo-
sphere.
Until reaching 8000 feet, the cabin rate-of-climb, Figure 2-9, will be
equal to the aircraft rate-of-climb. At 8000 feet, tl3e cabin rate-of-climt
will drop to ZERO as pressurization begins. The cabin rate-of-climb wir.
remain approximately at this indication until the aircraft has reached an
altitude of 20, 100 feet. Above this altitude, the cabin altitude will again
begin to ascend as the aircraft ascends, but at a lesser rate than the air-
craft rate-of-climb because of the difference in ambient air density and
cabin air density. The cabin altitude reaches approximately 10, 000 feet
at an aircraft altitude of 23, 500 feet; at this time the altitude warning
light will illuminate, indicating the need for oxygen.

A ND IND I CATO RS Cycling of the deice boots produces no aerodynamic effects in any atti-
tude within the allowable flight limitations. Deice boots are intended to
remove ice after it has accumulated rather than preventing its accumula-
tion. If the rate of ice accumulation is slow, best results can be obtained
by leaving the deice system OFF until 1/4 to 3/4 inch of ice has accumu-
5 . lated. After clearing this accumulation with one or two cycles of opera-
tion, the system should remain OFF until a significant quantity of ice has
again accumulated. Rapid cycling of the system is not recommended, as
this may cause the ice to grow outside the contour of the inflated boots,
preventing its removal.

Before Landing At full throttle, your turbocharger is capable of maintaining the maxi-

case, manifold pressure is controlled by throttle position and the waste
gate controller, while fuel flow varies with throttle movement and mani-
foldpressure. MANUALLY ADJUSTED SEAT CONTROLS
When the waste gate is closed and manifold pressure changes are due
to turbocharger output, as discussed previously, fuel flow will follow man-
ifold pressure even though the throttle position is unchanged. This means
that fuel flow adjustments required by the pilot are minimized to the fol-
lowing: (1) small initial adjustments on takeoff or climb-out for the pro-
per rich climb setting, (2) lean-out in cruise to the recommended
lean cruise setting, and (3) return to the full rich position for approach -
and landing.
When the waste gate is open, movement of the mixture control has
little or no effect on the manifold pressure of the turbocharged engine.

When the waste gate is closed, any change in fuel flow to the engine
will have a corresponding change in manifold pressure. That is, increas- 1. Tilt Adjustment Handerank

the following items should be remembered:
may be encountered and
(1) Turn the auxiliary fuel pumps on during climb and cruise opera-
tions. ·
(2) Lean the mixture during the climb to the proper fuel flow for the
power being used.
Your engine will accelerate normally from idle to full throttle with full
rich mixture at any altitude below 20, 000 feet. At higher altitudes, it is
usually necessary to lean the mixture to get smooth engine acceleration
from idle to maximum power. At altitudes above 25, 000 feet, and with
temperatures above standard, it takes one to two minutes for the turbine
