Cessna C182
Pilot’s Checklist, Emergency Procedures
and Operating Data
Version 7.0 November 2016
Applicability 1. This document is the in-flight reference for the C182 aircraft, as modified for operation in the Air Cadet Gliding Program. Checklists have been abbreviated for easy in-flight use, and frequently used performance data are incorporated. 2. Aircraft Normal and Emergency Procedures are in accordance with the A-CR-CCP-402/MB-001 Air Cadet Gliding Program Cessna 182 Aircraft Operating Instructions. Glider Towing Emergency Procedures are in accordance with A-CR-CCP-242/PT-005.
Structure
3. This checklist is organized in four sections:
a. White Pages – Normal Operating Checklists
b. Yellow Pages – Non Critical Emergency Checklists
c. Red Pages – Critical Emergency Checklists
d. Blue Pages – Performance Data and Aides Memoire
Emergency Procedures 4. In any emergency, the first priority is to maintain aircraft control, and then take the necessary actions to eliminate or mitigate the problem. 5. Emergency procedures have been developed to address all relevant elements of the required response. The pilot may need to eliminate specific elements based on time available. 6. For emergency procedures, the following definitions apply:
a. As Soon As Possible - means immediately (i.e. land in the nearest suitable area)
b. As Soon As Practicable - means at the nearest suitable aerodrome.

PARTIAL PWR LOSS
• Assess altitude and time available
• Waggle-Off or release glider immediately if necessary
If Reduced Engine Performance Permits:
• Contact glider on radio and advise of situation and plan
• Tow glider to a release position ensuring safe recovery for both aircraft
SPOILERS DEPLOYED
Usually indicated by extremely poor rate of climb • Assess altitude and time available • Release immediately if necessary
If Time Permits:
• Vigorously waggle rudder • Follow-up with radio call to
Glider
GLIDER RELEASE FAIL
• Glider pilot will advise by radio, or by flying to the left & level with the tow aircraft and rocking wings.
• Glider will return to centre and be flown above the normal high tow position
• Tow the glider to an altitude and position from which the glider trailing the tow rope can be safely recovered without difficulty
• Release the glider
DBL RELEASE FAIL
• Advise glider pilot by radio
• Glider will descend to low tow with full spoiler
• Deploy 20° flap, maintain 70 MPH IAS, and conduct a gentle controlled descent
• Set up for final approach approx 2NM from the runway with descent rate of approx 500 fpm
• On landing, the glider will provide braking
• Move gradually to left to allow the glider to pass on right if necessary
• Monitor glider and apply power as needed to maintain separation
