Checklist Usage
Tasks are executed in one of two ways:
■
as a sequence that uses the layout of the cockpit controls
and indicators as cues (i.e., “flow pattern”)
■
as a sequence of tasks organized by event rather than panel
location (e.g., After Takeoff, Gear – RETRACT, Yaw Damper
– ENGAGE).
Placing items in a flow pattern or series provides organization
and serves as a memory aid.
A challenge-response review of the checklist follows execution
of the tasks; the PM calls the item, and the appropriate pilot
responds by verifying its condition (e.g., “Engine Anti-Ice” [chal-
lenge] – “ON” [response]).
Two elements are inherent in the execution of normal proce-
dures:
■
use of either the cockpit layout or event cues to prompt the
correct switch and/or control positions
■
use of normal checklists as “done” lists.

Cruise
Throttles . . . . . . . . CRUISE DETENT OR AS DESIRED
Climb thrust is normally maintained upon level off until accel-
eration to the desired cruise mode takes place. When oper-
ating at maximum range cruise, thrust necessary to maintain
optimum angle-of-attack diminishes with fuel burnoff,
because of increased performance and lower airspeed
requirements as weight decreases.
Although the airplane is not operationally restricted in rough
air, flight in severe turbulence should be avoided. If severe
turbulence is encountered, it is recommended that the ignit-
ers be turned ON and airspeed maintained at approximately
180 KIAS. Maintain a constant attitude, avoid abrupt or large
control inputs, and do not chase airspeed and altitude indi-
cations. Disengage autopilot if necessary.

Landing Gear/Lights . . . . . . . DOWN/3 GREEN/NO RED
Pull gear handle out and move it to DOWN. HYD PRESS and
GEAR UNLOCKED lights illuminate while gear is extending.
Check three green lights on and GEAR UNLOCKED and
HYD PRESS lights extinguished. Antiskid and power brake
lights will also momentarily illuminate. Maximum landing gear
extension (VLO Extend) and landing gear extended (VLE) air-
speed is 250 KIAS. Maximum landing gear speed for retrac-
tion (VLO Retract) is 200 KIAS.
Flaps . . . . . . . . . . . . . LAND (BELOW 175 KIAS 35°)
Flaps may be extended to LAND below 175 KIAS. Flaps
should be in the LAND position for all normal landings.
Check indicator to verify position. Handle must be pushed in
to clear T.O. & APPR detent when LAND flaps are desired.
Airspeed . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . VREF MINIMUM
Consistently comfortable and safe landings are best achieved
from a stabilized approach. The point at which the airplane
should be stabilized with airspeed at VREF to VREF +10, full
flaps, and the desired descent rate is normally coincident with
commencing the final descent to landing. Under instrument
conditions, this usually occurs at the final approach fix inbound.
After passing the instrument approach fix outbound or nearing
the airport traffic area, airspeed should be reduced below 200
KIAS and the flaps extended to the T.O. & APPR (15-degree)
position. Approaching the final instrument fix inbound (one dot
from glideslope intercept on an ILS), or a downwind abeam
position, extend the landing gear. At the point where final
descent to landing is begun, extend flaps to LAND, establish
the desired vertical rate, and adjust power to maintain at VREF
to VREF +10 indicated airspeed.
Power management during the approach/landing phase is rela-
tively easy in the Citation Excel because an N1 setting in the 55-
60 percent range will normally result in desired indicated air-

Parking Brake . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . SET
Parking brakes should not be set if brakes are very hot. Heat
transfer to wheels and tires is increased with parking brakes
set. This can cause the fusible plugs to melt, deflating the
tires. Do not leave airplane unattended without chocks
unless parking brake is set. Do not set parking brake if antic-
ipated cold soak temperature is -15°C (5°F) or below.
Always check cabin differential pressure at zero before
opening the door. Any pressure existing due to malfunction
of the left main gear squat switch or outflow valves could
cause the door to open rapidly presenting a hazard to per-
sonnel in the vicinity.
NOTE: Parking brake operation has not been demon-
strated with prolonged cold soak temperatures of -15°C
(5°F) or below.

Parking
Park the aircraft facing a direction that facilitates servicing. Under
normal circumstances, the prevailing wind can be disregarded.
Aircraft . . . . . . . . . PARK ON HARD, LEVEL SURFACE
Mooring
If extended parking plans or impending weather necessitates
mooring the aircraft, attach 3/4-inch ropes (or equivalent sub-
stitute) to the nose and main gear struts; this procedure
requires tie-down eyelets set into the apron. There is no proce-
dure for mooring at unprepared facilities.
Aircraft . . . . . . . . . PARK ON HARD, LEVEL SURFACE
AND HEAD INTO THE WIND
Towing/Taxiing
The aircraft can be taxied on hard, gravel, or sod surfaces. On
hard surfaces, tow with a yoke-type tow bar attached to the
nose wheel. When not on hard surface (such as sand, soft
ground, or mud), attach cables or ropes to each main gear for
towing and steer the aircraft with rudder pedals.

Performance Computations
Compute takeoff performance in accordance with the AFM.
Deicing
When necessary, use the following methods to deice the
aircraft:
■ placing the aircraft in a warm hangar until the ice melts
■ mechanically brushing the snow or ice off with brooms,
brushes, or other means
■ applying a heated water/glycol solution (one-step procedure)
■ applying heated water followed by an undiluted glycol-based
fluid (two-step procedure).
Deicing Fluids
Three types of anti-icing/deicing fluids are in commercial use:
SAE/ISO Types I, II and IV. Type I fluids are used generally in
North America. Type II and IV fluids, also referred to as AEA
Type II and IV, are used generally in Europe.
Type I fluids are unthickened glycol-based fluids that are usual-
ly diluted with water and applied hot; they provide limited
holdover time.
Type II and IV fluids are thickened glycol-based fluids that are
usually applied cold on a deiced aircraft; they provide longer
holdover times than Type I fluids.
Holdover Times
Holdover timetables are only estimates and vary depending
on many factors, which include:
■ temperature
■ precipitation type
■ wind
■ aircraft skin temperature.
Holdover times are based on mixture ratio. Times start when
the last application has begun. Guidelines for holdover times
anticipated by SAE Type I, Type II or Type IV and ISO Type I,
Type II or Type IV fluid mixtures are a function of weather con-
ditions and outside air temperature (OAT).
Deice the aircraft from top to bottom. Avoid flushing snow, ice,
or frost onto treated areas. Start the deicing process by treating
the horizontal stabilizer followed by the vertical stabilizer.
Continue by treating the fuselage top and sides. Finally, apply
deicing fluid to the wings.

Preflight
During preflight preparation, inspect areas where surface snow or
frost can change or affect normal system operations. Supple-
mental preflight checks include the following.
All Engine/Protective Covers . . . . . . . . . . REMOVED
Surface . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CHECKED
The wing leading edges, all control surfaces, tab surfaces,
and control cavities must be free of frost, ice, or snow. Check
control cavities for drainage after snow removal because
water puddles may re-freeze in flight.
Generator/Engine Inlets . . . . . CLEARED OF INTERNAL
ICE/SNOW
Check that the inlet cowling, generator inlets, and tailcone air
inlet are free of ice or snow and that the engine fan is free to
rotate.
Fuel Tank Vents . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CHECKED
Check the fuel tank vents; remove all traces of ice or snow.
Fuel Drains . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ALL WATER DRAINED
Pitot Heads And Static Ports . . . . . . CLEARED OF ICE
Water rundown resulting from snow removal may re-freeze
immediately forward of the static ports. This causes an ice
buildup that results in disturbed airflow over the static ports.
The disturbed airflow can cause erroneous static readings
even though the static ports themselves are clear.
Landing Gear Doors . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . CHECKED
Make sure the landing gear doors are unobstructed and free
of impacted ice or snow.
GPU Start
If aircraft is cold-soaked below -10°C, use a GPU and/or pre-
heat procedure for starting.
Engine Start
During cold weather starts, initial oil pressure may be slow in
rising; the LO OIL PRESS annunciator may remain illuminated
longer than normal.
Takeoff
If Engine Anti-Ice is Used for Takeoff:
Thrust . . . . . . . . USE ENGINE ANTI-ICE ON SETTINGS

Continue engine checks during the early part of the takeoff
roll. On icy runways, expect a lag in nosewheel steering and
anticipate corrections. A light forward pressure on the control
column increases nosewheel steering effectiveness.

CAUTION: If wing ice buildup is noticed, do not turn
engine anti-ice on until wing ice erodes. Engine damage
may result.

General Information
CAE SimuFlite strongly supports the premise that the disci-
plined use of well-developed Standard Operating Procedures
(SOP) is central to safe, professional aircraft operations, espe-
cially in multi-crew, complex, or high performance aircraft.
If your flight department has developed an SOP, we encourage
you to use it during your training. If your flight department does not
already have one, we welcome your use of the SimuFlite SOP.
Experienced corporate pilots carefully developed this SOP for
CAE SimuFlite. It is the product of their experience and the
result of a consensus on the way CAE SimuFlite conducts its
flight operations.
The procedures described herein are specific to the Citation
Excel unless manufacturer or FAA specified procedures over-
ride them. They apply to the phases of flight as specified, and
the flight crew member designated for each step should accom-
plish it as indicated.
Definitions
LH/RH – Pilot Station. Designation of seat position for accom-
plishing a given task because of proximity to the respective con-
trol/indicator. Regardless of PF or PM role, the pilot in that seat
performs tasks and responds to checklist challenges accordingly.
PF – Pilot Flying. The pilot responsible for controlling the flight
of the aircraft.
PIC – Pilot-in-Command. The pilot responsible for the operation
and safety of an aircraft during flight time.
PM – Pilot Monitoring. The pilot who is not controlling the flight
of the aircraft.
Flow Patterns
Flow patterns are an integral part of the SOP. Accomplish the
cockpit setup for each phase of flight with a flow pattern, then
refer to the checklist to verify the setup. Use normal checklists
as “done lists” instead of “do lists.”
Flow patterns are disciplined procedures; they require pilots
who understand the aircraft systems/controls and who method-
ically accomplish the flow pattern.
A standardized flow pattern appears in the Preflight Inspection
chapter.
Checklists
Use a challenge-response method to execute any checklist. After
the PF initiates the checklist, the PM challenges by reading the
checklist item aloud. The PF is responsible for verifying that the
items designated as PF or his seat position (i.e., LH or RH) are
accomplished and for responding orally to the challenge. Items
designated on the checklist as PM or by his seat position are the
PM’s responsibility. The PM confirms the accomplishment of the
item, then responds orally to his own challenge.
In all cases, the response by either pilot is confirmed by the
other and any disagreement is resolved prior to continuing
the checklist.
After the completion of any checklist, the PM states “______
checklist is complete.” This allows the PF to maintain situation-
al awareness during checklist phases and prompts the PF to
continue to the next checklist, if required.
Effective checklists are pertinent and concise. Use them the
way they are written: verbatim, smartly, and professionally.
Omission of Checklists
While the PF is responsible for initiating checklists, the PM
should ask the PF whether a checklist should be started if, in
his opinion, a checklist is overlooked. As an expression of good
crew resource management, such prompting is appropriate for
any flight situation: training, operations, or checkrides.
Challenge/No Response
If the PM observes and challenges a flight deviation or critical
situation, the PF should respond immediately. If the PF does
not respond by oral communication or action, the PM must
issue a second challenge that is loud and clear. If the PF does
not respond after the second challenge, the PM must ensure
the safety of the aircraft. The PM must announce that he is
assuming control and then take the necessary actions to return
the aircraft to a safe operating envelope.
Abnormal/Emergency Procedures
When any crewmember recognizes an abnormal or emergency
condition, the PIC designates who controls the aircraft, who
performs the tasks, and any items to be monitored.
Following these designations, the PIC calls for the appropriate
checklist. The crewmember designated on the checklist accom-
plishes the checklist items with the appropriate challenge/
response.
The pilot designated to fly the aircraft (i.e., PF) does not per-
form tasks that compromise this primary responsibility, regard-
less of whether he uses the autopilot or flies manually.
Both pilots must be able to respond to an emergency situation
that requires immediate corrective action without reference to a
checklist. The elements of an emergency procedure that must
Rejected Takeoffs
The rejected takeoff procedure is a preplanned maneuver;
both crewmembers must be aware of and briefed on the types
of malfunctions that mandate an abort. Assuming the crew
trains to a firmly established SOP, either crew-member may
call for an abort.
The PF normally commands and executes the takeoff abort for
directional control problems or catastrophic malfunctions.
Pre-Departure Briefings
The PIC should conduct a pre-departure briefing prior to each
flight to address potential problems, weather delays, safety
considerations, and operational issues. Pre-departure briefings
should include all crewmembers to enhance team-building and
set the tone for the flight. The briefing may be formal or infor-
mal, but should include some standard items. The acronym
AWARE works well to ensure no points are missed. This is also
an opportunity to brief any takeoff or departure deviations from
the SOP due to weather or runway conditions.

Noise Levels
■ The Effective Perceived Noise Levels (EPNL) established in
compliance with FAR 36, Amendment 12 (Stage 3) are
shown in Table 3-A.
■ The ICAO Annex 16 Chapter 3 noise values are the same as
those for FAR Part 36, Amendment 12, and were obtained
with the procedures used to establish compliance with FAR
Part 36, Amendment 12. See Table 3-A.
■ The takeoff weight for these figures was 20,000 lbs; the land-
ing weight was 18,700 lbs.
■ Takeoff and sideline noise levels were established with a
climb speed of 136 KIAS and with 7° flaps. The thrust was
reduced at 2,817 ft AGL from the takeoff to an N1 that in the
event of an engine failure, level flight would be maintained.
■ Approach noise levels were obtained at 127 KIAS and
FULL flaps, with the landing gear down.
■ No determination has been made by the FAA that the noise
levels in the AFM are or should be acceptable or unaccept-
able for operation at, into, or out of any airport.
■ The ICAO Annex 16, Chapter 3, noise values are the same
as those for FAR Part 36, Amendment 21, and were obtained
with the procedures used to establish compliance with FAR
Part 36, Amendment 21. The ICAO Annex 16, Chapter 3,
noise levels were obtained by analysis of approved data
used to demonstrate compliance with FAR Part 36,
Amendment 21, Noise Standards. This data is applicable
only after approval of the Civil Aviation Approving Authority
of the country of airplane registration, including approval of
the equivalent procedures used to establish compliance with
FAR Part 36, Amendment 21.

PRIMUS 1000
The Primus 1000 Integrated Avionics System is a fail-passive sys-
tem that combines the functions of an autopilot, flight director, yaw
damper, and elevator trim to provide automatic flight path and atti-
tude control through the pitch, roll, and yaw axes. The flight direc-
tor and autopilot can be used either independently or together.
The primary component of the Primus 1000 system is the IC-600
Integrated Avionics Computer (IAC), which contains a symbol
generator, the flight director, and the autopilot computer (the
autopilot is in the pilot’s IC-600 only). The IC-600 IAC is the focal
point of information flow by converting input data and informa-
tion to the pilot-selected formats and displaying them on the
PFDs. The IC-600 also generates information that appears on
the Multifunction Display (MFD) and computes the flight director
steering information and autopilot function. The system inter-
connects two IC-600 computers to share, compare, and com-
municate processed information.
The Primus 1000 system operates through displays of the pilot’s
or copilot’s Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS).
Various standard subsystems of the Primus 1000 include:
■ air data system
■ autopilot system
■ flight instrumentation
EFIS
The standard Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) gen-
erates flight path, flight instrument, and navigation information
and consists of:
■ pilot’s and copilot’s Primary Flight Displays (PFD’s)
■ Multifunction Display (MFD)
■ pilot’s and copilot’s display controllers and mode selector
■ multifunction display controller
■ remote instrument controller
■ PFD/MFD bezel controller
■ micro air data computers
■ symbol generators.
A multifunction display has the capability to display radar and/or
navigation information. The MFD can also display PFD informa-
tion if that display fails.

■ one 24V DC, 44 amp-hour nickel-cadmium battery
Battery
With the battery switch in BATT, the isolation relay closes to sup-
ply power to the Crossfeed bus. From the Crossfeed bus, power
flows to the LH and RH Feed buses.
The battery disconnect relay automatically opens during a
ground power unit start to remove the battery from the electrical
system and avoid cycling of the battery. The relay closes auto-
matically at the end of the start cycle.
Placing the battery switch in the BATT ON position allows power
from the LH Feed or RH Feed bus to power the emergency bus
through the Crossfeed bus and relaxed emergency power relay.
Selecting the EMER position energizes the emergency power
relay to the emergency position. Power flows from the Battery
bus to the Emergency buses only.
If battery temperature exceeds 145°F (63°C), a temperature sen-
sor in the battery trips the BATT O”HEAT annunciator and Master
Warning and they illuminate flashing. Above 160°F (71°C), the
>160° annunciator, BATT O’HEAT annunciator, and Master
Warning illuminate flashing. A battery temperature gage provides
continuous indication of battery temperature.
Starter/Generators
Two engine-driven starter/generators are the primary source of
DC electrical power. During engine starting they function as
starters. At the end of the start cycle, the generator control units
(GCUs) enable the transition from starter to generator.
Each GCU provides:
■ field weakening during engine start
■ automatic starter shutoff
■ voltage regulation at 28.5V DC
■ generator load sharing (paralleling)
■ overvoltage and ground fault protection
■ reverse current protection.
With the generator switch in ON, regulation, protection, and Feed
bus connection are automatic. When generator output is correct,
the power relay closes to connect the generator to its Feed bus.
The Feed buses, in turn, cross tie through the Crossfeed bus so
that if one generator fails, the operating generator continues to
power the entire electrical system.
If an overvoltage or feeder fault (short) occurs, the GCU opens the
generator field relay to de-energize the generator and the power
relay to disconnect the generator from its Feed bus. The associat-
ed GEN OFF annunciator illuminates. Placing the generator switch
in the OFF position also opens the power relay to isolate the gen-
erator from its Feed bus, without de-exciting the generator.
Momentarily holding the switch in RESET resets a generator field
relay tripped from overvoltage, feeder fault, or when the ENG
FIRE switch is pushed. Selecting RESET may also be neces-
sary following a windmilling airstart.
External Power
With a 28V DC 1,000A GPU connected, external power supplies
the Battery bus through the closed external power relay.
When a generator comes on-line and begins supplying power to
the DC buses, the external power relay opens to disconnect
external power.
An external power overvoltage sensor protects the aircraft elec-
trical system from overvoltage conditions. If GPU voltage exceeds
32.5V DC, the sensor opens the external power disable relays to
disconnect external power. Before external power can be reap-
plied, the overvoltage sensor must be reset by disconnecting the
GPU from the aircraft.
AC Power
The Excel utilizes a single AC inverter to power the panel light-
ing. In addition, AC power from engine driven alternators is used
to power the electrically heated windshield. For a complete sys-
tem description, refer to the Ice and Rain Chapter.
Avionics equipment in the Excel is DC powered, and therefore
does not require the use of AC inverters.
Generators
When an engine reaches approximately 6,000 RPM (at idle) the
AC generator is capable of producing 115V AC. An external turn
on signal, from the WINDSHIELD ANTI ICE/DEICE switch allows
the power control unit (PCU) to regulate the output voltage of the
generator. Power is then supplied to the windshield anti-ice sys-
tem. The frequency of the output voltage is not critical; howev-
er, it will be from 200 Hz to 400 Hz, depending on engine speed.
Each AC generator is also equipped with two switches, located at
each bearing location. If a bearing should fail, a secondary bear-
ing will assume the load and the switch for a bearing will become
grounded, causing an AC BEARING annunciator to illuminate.
EL Inverter
The static inverter is a single phase, 40-60V AC, 30 VA, 400 Hz
inverter, supplying 40-60V AC to EL lighting. The inverter
receives 28V DC from the EL PANEL circuit breaker located on
the left circuit breaker panel and converts the 28V DC to 40-60V
AC. Converted 40-60V AC is supplied to the EL Dimmer knob.
Intensity of all EL panels is controlled by this dimmer.
Two more inverters, located under the pilot’s armrest, supply AC
power to the 12 fluorescent tubes in the cabin. These inverters
convert 28V DC to 190V AC for the fluorescent power supplies.
These power supplies transform voltage to 300 to 480V to the
tubes. These tubes are controlled by the OFF/BRIGHT/DIM
switch forward of the entrance door.

Position Function
OFF Left and right flow control shutoff valves closed.
LH Left flow control shutoff valve opened and right flow
control shutoff valve closed. Left engine supplies
bleed air for air conditioning system.
NORM Left and right flow control shutoff valves open with
engines supplying bleed air for air conditioning sys-
tem. Normal operating position.
RH Right flow control shutoff valve open and left flow
control shutoff valve closed. Right engine supplies
bleed air for air conditioning system.
EMER Emergency pressurization valve open and left and
right flow control shutoff valves closed. All bleed air
routed into cabin for emergency pressurization.
This position will only activate the Emer Press valve in
the air.
Air Conditioning
The Environmental Control Unit (ECU) utilizes bleed air from the
engines or the APU to provide cool pressurized air to the cockpit
and cabin air distribution system. The ECU exhaust duct provides
warm air for the autopilot servo anti-ice system. The ECU is locat-
ed in the tailcone. The ECU is plumbed so bleed air from left or
right engine or APU can supply ECU for ground or flight operations.
With both engines operating and the PRESS SOURCE selector
in the NORM position, the left and right flow control shutoff valves
open. Engine bleed air then flows from each engine to the air
conditioning system.
Hot bleed air flows first through each engine pylon-mounted pre-
cooler and then enters a tee. One branch flows through the
ozone converter and to the Bi-level Flow Control Valve (BFCV)
for the associated engine before entering the ECU bleed sup-
ply cluster. Here the APU bleed air (A/C equipped with APU)
enters the supply system for the ECU. A line branches just
before entry into the ECU to supply a bypass line. This is a hot
air supply to prevent icing of the water separator and is not used
to control cabin temperature. The temperature of the air exiting
the water separator is regulated at approximately 43°F (6°C).
Bleed air enters the primary heat exchanger of the ECU and is
further cooled before flowing to the compressor. The compres-
sor squeezes the bleed air and it is heated adiabatically.
If the temperature of the compressor discharge reaches 420°F
(216°C) an overtemperature switch signals a pressure logic mod-
ule to shut off the two flow control valves, shutting off engine
bleed air to the ECU, and, if airborne, will turn on emergency
pressurization.
This compressor discharge air passes through another heat
exchanger and looses a significant amount of its heat before enter-
ing the ECU turbine. In the turbine, the air rapidly expands and
cools as it drives the turbine. At the opposite end of the turbine
shaft is a fan, which draws air over the two heat exchangers and
blows it overboard through a grille on the right, rear fuselage.

Environmental Systems
Temperature Control
On the tilt panel are two temperature control selectors that func-
tion to select temperature in each of the two zones, cabin and
cockpit. In the upper half of their respective arcs, they will select
zone temperature between 65°F and 85°F.
A zone temperature sensor in each area (overhead, in a pas-
senger service unit of the cabin zone, and in the copilot’s side
panel of the cockpit zone) sends a signal to the temperature con-
troller and compares the selected temperature with the sensed
temperature and signals the bleed air valve to introduce more or
less hot air to the diffuser of that zone.
The display selector has six positions; three for each zone. In
the CKPT or CAB position, the present temperature is displayed
for the zone. In the SEL position, the temperature selected is dis-
Vapor-Cycle System
All aircraft not equipped with an APU are equipped with a vapor-
cycle (although referred to as freon system, R-134A is not tech-
nically freon) system for cooling of the cabin without the use of
bleed air.
The system is comprised of an electric compressor, located in
the tailcone, aft of the baggage compartment, and vapor/liquid
lines connected to two evaporators in the passenger compart-
ment. The forward evaporator is located in the forward end of
the dropped aisle and the aft evaporator is located in the aft van-
ity area, just forward of the aft pressure bulkhead. A fan at each
evaporator drives cabin air over the evaporator. The forward
evaporator puts air into a floor duct, with outlets that force air for-
ward and aft from a grill in the floor, just forward of the front of
the dropped aisle. The rear evaporator fan forces cool air into
the overhead (WEMAC) system.
Control of the vapor-cycle system is through a switch on the copi-
lot’s lower panel. A five-position switch controls the forward and
rear fans and the compressor. The left side of the switch is
labeled A/C with LO and HI positions, indicating the speed select-
ed for both forward and rear evaporator fans. The light above the
switch indicates the compressor is operating. The two right posi-
tions are labeled WEMAC BOOST and indicate the selected fan
speed of the rear evaporator fan. The forward fan will not run in
the two right positions.
On the ground, the vapor-cycle unit may be run with either
ground power or by operation of either engine. In flight, both gen-
erators must be operating to run the compressor. A barometric
switch senses flight altitude and will shut down the compressor
above 18,000 ft.
Pressurization
Engine bleed air is used as the source of high pressure air to pro-
vide cabin pressurization. During normal operations, the bleed air
passes through the ECU for cooling before entering the cabin.
Two elements are required to provide cabin pressurization. One
is a constant source of air. The other is a method of controlling
the flow of air out of the airplane to achieve the desired differ-
ential pressure and resultant cabin altitude. The inflow of air to
the cabin is constant (through a wide range of engine power set-
tings) and the outflow of air is controlled by two outflow valves
located in the aft pressure bulkhead.
Normal Operation
There are three modes of operation: ground/taxi, pre-pressur-
ization, and flight. In the ground/taxi mode, with the airplane on
the ground and either engine operating below 85% N2 RPM, both
outflow valves are kept fully open. In the pre-pressurization mode
when both engines are set to greater than 85% N2 RPM, both
outflow valves will slowly close to bring the cabin altitude to a dif-
ferential pressure of 200 feet below the field pressure altitude
during the takeoff roll. At liftoff the squat switch will put the air-
plane pressurization system into the flight mode. In flight mode,
the cabin is pressurized by a constant flow of temperature- con-
trolled air.
Pressurization Source
The pressurization source selector switch is a six position switch
labeled OFF, LH, NORMAL, RH and EMER. In the OFF position,
both bleed air control valves are closed allowing no bleed air to
enter the cabin. In the LH position, the left flow control valve will
open, allowing the left engine conditioned bleed air to enter the
cabin. In the RH position, the right flow control valve will open,
Pressurization Control
The pressurization controller is comprised of two digital windows
marked SET ALT and RATE, an FL button, an EXER button and a
SET ALT knob. The controller is normally operated in the AUTO
mode, which is selected by positioning the MANUAL/AUTO switch
on the pressurization-environmental control panel to AUTO. In
AUTO mode, the operator normally selects the landing field pres-
sure altitude before takeoff by setting the information into the upper
window with the SET ALT knob. Then, in flight the controller will
continuously generate an auto-schedule based on the departure
field elevation, the maximum altitude in flight sensed by the micro
air data computer, and any later operator changes of the landing
field pressure altitude. The controller determines the pressure rate
of change and the cabin pressure altitude based on the auto-
schedule and the air data sensor indicated altitude. The auto-
schedule will have the cabin depressurized by an altitude of 1500
feet, ± 200 feet, above the set destination field elevation before
landing. Cabin rate-of-change is an automatic function of the sys-
tem and is not directly selectable.
If the air data sensor information is interrupted, or other system fail-
ure should cause the AUTO mode to fail, the controller will switch
the system to isobaric mode of control. A yellow warning indicator
on the display face will illuminate to advise of the change. The land-
ing field altitude on the controller display will switch to the current
flight level, allowing the operator to set the desired airplane cruis-
ing flight level in order to continue automatic control of the cabin
pressure rate of change and the cabin altitude. A near maximum
cabin differential pressure will be maintained.
In isobaric control the operator may recall the selected landing
field altitude by pressing the FL (flight level) button on the con-
troller, and the selected flight level on the controller display will
be replaced by landing field altitude annunciated as CA (cabin
altitude). Further pushes of the FL button will cycle the display
between flight level (FL) and cabin altitude (CA). Cabin altitude
function can be selected to set cabin altitude prior to landing. If
air data sensor information is restored the controller will auto-
matically switch back to AUTO mode and the yellow warning indi-
cation will be extinguished.
Neither AUTO nor ISOBARIC modes are available in case of DC
electrical power failure since the controller does not receive
power from the emergency bus. The manual control system func-
tions without electrical power and is used to directly control the
outflow valves in case of electrical failure or failure of the auto-
matic controller.
The EXER button on the face of the controller provides two sets
of built-in test features - a ground test function and built in main-
tenance tests. The test is initiated by pressing the EXER button
and holding it for approximately two minutes. If the engines are
running the cabin will gradually pressurize to 200 feet below field
elevation. Releasing the button terminates the test, conducts a
display test, and gradually depressurizes the cabin.
The maintenance tests are initiated by pressing a hidden button
between the FL and EXER buttons. It requires a slender tool for
depression. The airplane must be on the ground to enable the
maintenance mode and once in the mode a yellow warning indi-
cator on the display will continually flash.
Emergency Dump
The cabin dump switch, located on pressurization-environmen-
tal control panel, may be actuated to reduce cabin pressure.
Lifting the guard and moving the EMER DUMP switch disables
the electrical controls, activating the primary outflow climb sole-
noid to pull air out of both outflow valve control chambers and
dumping cabin pressure to the limits of the cabin altitude limit
valves. Complete cabin depressurization will be prevented above
an altitude of 14,500 feet.
In the event of a vacuum system failure, the emergency dump
valve will be inoperative and cabin pressure will go to maximum
differential since vacuum is not available to open the outflow
valves. In this case, select pressurization source to MANUAL and
control the cabin altitude with the MANUAL UP/DOWN switch.

Fire Detection
The closed-loop engine fire detection system consists of a
detector control unit connected to a flexible, stainless steel sen-
sor tube that wraps around the engine combustion and acces-
sory sections. The sensor tube contains a 28V DC energized
wire centered in a semiconductor material. At normal operating
temperatures, the material’s resistance is high and current does
not flow from the center wire to the outer casing.
As temperature increases, the material’s resistance decreases
until current flowing from the center wire to the outer casing ener-
gizes the detector control unit fire relay. The relay closes and the
associated ENGINE FIRE warning light illuminates.
Lifting the plastic guard and then pressing the illuminated
ENGINE FIRE warning light closes the fuel and hydraulic sys-
tem shutoff valves, de-energizes the generator field relay and
the thrust reversers isolation valve, and arms the fire extin-
guishing system (BOTTLE ARMED PUSH switchlight).
Lights function and continuity of the sensor and detector control
units are checked by placing the rotary TEST selector switch in
the FIRE WARN position and observing the illumination of both
ENGINE FIRE LH/RH warning lights. The FIRE EXT BOTL LOW
annunciator will illuminate should the content of the fire bottles
fall below 500 PSIG (±30 PSIG) at 70°F (21°C) or discharge due
to overpressurization or use.
Fire Extinguishing
Two dual-head single-shot fire extinguisher bottles located in the
tailcone contain CF3Br (bromotrifluoromethane) Halon 1301
pressurized to 600 ±75 PSI at 70°F (21°C) with dry nitrogen.
Normal bottle capacity is 86 cubic inches. Each bottle also has
a pressure sender and combination fill and pressure release
valve. Abnormally high temperatures (approximately 210°F,
99°C) in the tailcone melt the pressure release valve’s fusible
check valve to release bottle contents into the tailcone. Fire extin-
guishing discharge controls provide the means to select and dis-
charge from either fire extinguisher container to either engine
compartment.
Pressing the illuminated ENGINE FIRE warning light arms the
fire extinguishing system and illuminates the BOTTLE 1/2
ARMED PUSH switchlights. Pressing an illuminated BOTTLE
1/2 ARMED PUSH switchlight supplies 28V DC to fire the select-
ed bottle’s explosive cartridge for the affected engine.
Pressurized nitrogen then carries the fire extinguishing agent
from the bottle through distribution lines to the engine nacelle.
When pressed, the respective BOTTLE 1/2 ARMED PUSH
switchlight extinguishes.
If the ENGINE FIRE light remains illuminated after 30 seconds
and completion of the fire checklist, pressing the other BOTTLE
ARMED PUSH switchlight discharges the remaining bottle into
the same engine nacelle.

Ailerons
The aileron and aileron trim tab system provide lateral control of
the airplane. Movement of either control wheel left or right from
neutral transmits control inputs by cables to the aileron sector
assembly. The aileron sector assembly, in turn, moves the
ailerons through cables and aileron actuator assemblies. The
aileron on one wing will move up at the same time the aileron on
the opposite wing moves down.
Total aileron travel, stop to stop, is 19 ±1° up and 15 ±1° down.
Aileron Trim
Rotating the aileron trim knob on the trim control assembly left
or right from the neutral position mechanically positions the left
aileron trim tab via cables connected to the tab’s actuator. The
trim tab installed on the trailing edge of the left aileron has move-
ment 20 ±2° up or down from neutral.
Elevators
The elevators and elevator trim tab system provide longitudinal
control of the airplane. Moving either control column forward or aft
from neutral operates cables connected to the elevator bellcrank.
Movement of the bellcrank operates the elevators. Total elevator
movement, stop to stop is 19° +1 or -0° up and 15° ±1° down.
Rudder
The rudder moves left or right 22° +1 or -0° (28.5° in aircraft
equipped with rudder bias) from neutral in response to rudder
pedal inputs to provide yaw control. Movement of the rudder ped-
als moves the rudder through cables and a bellcrank.
Rudder Trim
Rotating the rudder trim tab control wheel on the control
pedestal left or right from neutral mechanically positions the
servo-type rudder trim tab to reduce pedal forces. The trim tab
will deflect 11.5° ±1° left and right. An indicator shows trim tab
position NOSE L or NOSE R from neutral. The rudder trim tab
also functions as a servo tab to boost the rudder when displaced
from the neutral position. For each degree of rudder deflection,
the rudder trim tab will deflect one-half degree in the opposite
direction of rudder deflection.
Control Lock
With ailerons, elevator, and rudder in the neutral position and
throttles in the OFF position, pulling the CONTROL LOCK T-han-
dle out locks the flight controls and throttles. With the control lock
engaged, maximum nosewheel turning angle is 60°.
Rotating the CONTROL LOCK T-handle 45 degrees clockwise
and then pushing it in releases the control lock.
Flaps
At the heart of all Excel hydraulically-actuated systems is an
electrically-activated, hydraulic control valve which requires
electrical power to the appropriate pilot solenoid valve, and
hydraulic pressure to move the control (or spool) valve to route
hydraulic pressure. Without both electrical and hydraulic, these
valves will stay centered and keep the system in hydraulic lock.
The flaps are electrically controlled and hydraulically operat-
ed with a 0 to 35° range of travel. The FLAP handle has
detents at the UP (0°), TO (7°), TO & APPR (15°), and LAND
(35°) positions.
Moving the FLAP handle to extend or retract the flaps actuates
a down or up microswitch. The appropriate switch closes and
28V DC power flows to the hydraulic system bypass valve and
the flap pilot solenoid valve. Hydraulic pressure builds to 1,500
PSI, and the flap control valve is shifted by hydraulic pressure
to direct hydraulic pressure to the appropriate side of the flap
actuators. Under pressure the flap actuators position the flaps
through a bellcrank system. Pushrods transmit bellcrank move-
ment to the remaining flap bellcranks.
When flaps reach the position selected with the FLAP handle, a
preselect cable assembly connected to the flap indicator deac-
tuates the respective up or down switch. Then the flap solenoid
valve closes, the hydraulic system bypass valve opens, and flap
movement stops.
A gear warning horn will sound any time that the flaps are select-
ed to a position beyond 15 degrees (T.O. & APP.) without the
landing gear down and locked. The horn cannot be silenced until
the condition which caused that horn has been removed.
Cables are connected from the left side flap system to the right
side flap system to ensure movement of all flaps in the event of
the failure of one flap actuator.
Speedbrakes
Placing the spring-loaded SPEED BRAKE switch in the EXTEND
position energizes a holding relay that supplies 28V DC to ener-
gize the hydraulic system bypass valve and speedbrake control
valve solenoid. The bypass valve closes and hydraulic pressure
builds to 1,500 PSI. When the pilot solenoid valve energizes, it
shifts to route hydraulic pressure to the appropriate end of the
spool valve. This routes pressure to the speedbrake actuators
that extend the speedbrakes. When the speedbrakes reach the
extended position, limit switches actuate to illuminate the SPEED
BRAKE EXTEND annunciator, close the solenoid valve, and
open the bypass valve. When the control valve closes it traps
hydraulic fluid in the actuating system to hold the speedbrakes
in the extended position.
If a total DC electrical failure occurs with the speedbrakes
extended, a safety valve opens to release hydraulic pressure to
allow speedbrake blow down to the trail position.

Fuel Storage
The fuel system is functionally divided into two separate tanks by
a fuel rib in the center of the wing. The fuel tank in each wing
includes all the wing area between the forward and aft spars, from
the center point of the wing outboard to the wing tip, with neces-
sary deviations in the wheel well area. Lightening holes and
stringer cutouts permit movement of the fuel within the wings.
The fuel storage system consists of one integral wet-wing fuel
tank in each wing and a fuel vent system that maintains a posi-
tive internal tank pressure within the structural limitations of the
wing. The vent system also provides an escape for fuel and
vapor when a temperature rise causes fuel to expand in the tank.
Thirteen flapper-type check valves are in four different wing rib
assemblies and in the wing sump areas to restrict fuel flow to
prevent sudden weight and balance shifts during maneuvers and
to form a reservoir of fuel around the pumps. Five drain valves
in the lower surface of each wing permit the draining of sediment,
moisture, and/or residual fuel from the tanks.
Each tank holds 503 U.S. gallons of usable fuel for a total capac-
ity of 1,006 U.S. gallons (approximately 6,790 pounds).
Each tank’s venting system consists of an underwing air scoop,
float valve, surge tank, check valves, a vent line (that extends
from the surge tank to the forward area of the center wing sec-
tion), relief valve, and transfer tubes. During maneuvering, the
float valve closes to prevent fuel loss and the check valves open
to vent the tank. The vent surge tanks capture fuel vented dur-
ing fuel expansion. After the fuel tank level drops, fuel siphons
from the surge tank back into the wing tank.
An internal sump area, or engine feed hopper, in each wing
tank’s inboard section contains an electric boost pump, primary
ejector pump, and five check valves. Each wing tank also has
three transfer ejector pumps that move fuel from the main tank
area into the sump area.
Fuel Indicating
Seven capacitance type fuel probes and one temperature com-
pensator in each wing tank supply fuel information to a signal
conditioner that drives the vertical tape FUEL QTY displays of
the fuel flow/fuel quantity indicator. The vertical tape displays
show tank quantity from 0 to 4,000 lbs.
The upper portion of the indicator has two digital displays that
show engine FUEL FLOW from 0 to 1990 lbs per hr.
The system operates on 28V DC from the LH and RH
DC buses.
A float switch in each wing tank illuminates its respective LO
FUEL LEVEL annunciator when fuel quantity drops to 360 lbs.
Fuel Distribution
During engine start after the START button is pressed, the elec-
tric boost pump supplies positive fuel feed to the engine-driven
pump. Fuel flows from the sump area through a check valve,
manual shutoff valve, fuel filter, and firewall shutoff valve. If the
fuel filter begins clogging, a differential pressure switch closes
at 6 to 8 PSI to illuminate the FUEL FLTR BP annunciator. At 9
to 12 PSI, the fuel filter bypass valve opens to route fuel around
the filter.
After the engine starts, the generator control unit (GCU) de-ener-
gizes the electric boost pump. The primary ejector pump then
supplies fuel from the sump area to the engine-driven pump.
With the engine-driven pump operating, the primary ejector
pump receives motive flow fuel through the motive flow valve
and open motive flow shutoff valve.
Refueling
There are two methods of fueling the Excel, single-point (pres-
sure refueling) and overwing. A single-point refueling receptacle
(adapter) on the right fuselage forward of the wing permits simul-
taneous servicing of both sides of the fuel system. Single-point
refueling has the advantages of reducing time, fuel contamina-
tion, skin damage to the aircraft, static discharge, and skin con-
tact. The overwing port allows gravity fueling of the tanks.
Defueling
The fuel tanks can be defueled by single-point, suction, force-
draining, or transfer (crossfeed). Single-point is the preferred
method and it is accomplished through the same adapter as the
refueling system. The suction method draws fuel from the tank
through the overwing filler cap. Force-draining uses the electric
boost pump to draw fuel and pump it under pressure through the
disconnected fuel feed line at the engine’s fuel control unit.
Finally, the transfer method uses the crossfeed valves to drain
fuel from one tank and move it to the opposite tank.

Hydraulic System
Hydraulic power is supplied by two engine driven pumps mount-
ed on either engine accessory drive case. Should either engine
fail, the other pump will be able to operate the entire system.
Hydraulic fluid is stored in the associated lines and components
of the system, and in a reservoir mounted in the tailcone. The
reservoir, lines and valves should be checked for quantity and
condition on preflight.
Hydraulic fluid flows from the reservoir to the engine driven
pumps, R & L, through two pressure filters, R & L, to a bypass
valve. Should either filter become blocked a bypass relief valve
will allow fluid to bypass the filter.
The system bypass valve is normally open, which allows the
low pressure flow to return through to a low pressure filter to
the reservoir. This provides continuous low pressure flow in
the system.
When one of the system components (landing gear, flaps,
speedbrakes, stabilizer, or thrust reversers) is selected this
energizes the bypass valve closed, which raises the hydraulic
pressure and routes that high pressure to the selected com-
ponent. When pressure exceeds approximately 185 PSI, a
switch illuminates the HYD PRESS annunciator. After the
landing gear, stabilizer, flaps, or speedbrakes are in the
selected position, the bypass valve opens, returning the sys-
tem to the low pressure and extinguishing the annunciator.
The thrust reversers will illuminate the HYD PRESS annunci-
ator until they are normally stowed.
A pressure relief valve starts to open at 1,350 PSI and is fully
open at 1,500 PSI, thus regulating the operating pressure.

Wing/Engine
L and R WING/ENGINE ANTI-ICE switches on the pilot’s lower
left instrument panel electrically control the engine and wing anti-
ice systems. With the three-position ON/OFF/ENGINE ON switch
in OFF, the wing anti-ice and engine bleed valves receive power
to keep them closed. When the L or R WING/ENGINE ANTI-ICE
switch is positioned to ENGINE ON, bleed air flows through the
applicable engine inlet and engine stators. If sufficient bleed air
flow is not available to maintain the proper wing temperature, the
ENG ANTI-ICE annunciator will illuminate. The light may be extin-
guished by increasing the engine RPM. Operation of the system
may be checked by observing engine ITT rise when the engine
anti-ice is turned on. If the check is made on the ground, it may
require up to two minutes to extinguish the WING ANTI-ICE
annunciator with N2 set at approximately 70%. Maximum engine
power setting values are reduced when using anti-ice. Loss of
electrical power to the valve supplying flow to the inlets results in
the valve opening; thus, assuring anti-ice capability.
The WING XFLOW switch is designed to provide wing anti-ice pro-
tection to both wings in the event of an inoperative engine. The
WING XFLOW position disables the selected engine inlet temper-
ature and stator valve inputs to the anti-ice failure annunciators.
Wing Anti-Icing
The anti-ice system uses engine bleed air extracted from the left
and right bleed air clusters. The air from each side flows through
one-way check valves to various systems. A tap into the pneu-
matic lines prior to the one-way check valves provides hot bleed
air for the wing anti-ice.
The air travels forward to its respective left and right wing anti-
ice valve. The wing anti-ice valves are normally open (electrically
closed) valves controlled by the corresponding left and right
WING/ENGINE ANTI-ICE switches. Moving the three-position
ON/OFF/ENGINE ON switch to ON removes power from the
valves so they open.
From the wing anti-ice valves, the bleed air lines move internally
along the left and right fuselage to a point near the trailing edge
of the wing. At this position, the lines exit the fuselage into a cav-
ity between the fuselage and the wing root fairing.
The leading edge assembly consists of an aluminum outer skin
with compartmental spacers bonded inside. A heat shield spac-
er divides the assembly into a forward hot section and a rear-
ward air space in front of a fuel cell closeout spacer. In the front
Tail Deicing
A pneumatic deice system breaks up ice accumulation on the hor-
izontal stabilizer leading edge. Bleed air, regulated to 23 PSI, flows
through two control valves to rubber boots bonded to the leading
edge of the airfoils. The system receives power from a 5 amp TAIL
DEICE CB on the left CB panel. A TAIL AUTO/OFF/MANUAL
switch and timer control the system. A white TL DEICE PRESS (L
or R) annunciator monitors the inflation cycles.
The two control valves are in the tailcone. One valve supplies
pneumatic pressure to left horizontal stabilizer; the other sup-
plies pressure to the right horizontal stabilizer.
Boot Cycle
The TAIL DEICE switch controls the deice boots. The switch has
three positions, AUTO/OFF/ MANUAL. OFF is the center switch
position. MANUAL is a momentary position.
Placing the switch in AUTO starts a timer circuit for a series of
3-minute cycles. During the first 6 seconds, the left horizontal
stabilizer control valve opens and inflates the boots. Neither
valve receives power from 7 to 12 seconds of the cycle. From
13 to 18 seconds of the cycle, the right horizontal stabilizer con-
trol valve receives power. During the remainder of each 3-minute
cycle, both boots have vacuum applied to them. After three min-
utes, the cycle repeats.
The interruption of power to the control valves directs the bleed
air overboard. In addition, the control valves create a vacuum to
evacuate the boots and lines during the interruption of power to
the control valves. This vacuum holds the boots deflated.
MANUAL causes both control valves to open and inflates both
boots simultaneously. Holding the switch in MANUAL maintains
boot inflation.
Releasing the switch from MANUAL allows the boots to deflate.
Pitot/Static Anti-Icing
Integral heating elements provide anti-icing for the pitot tubes,
static ports, TAS probe, and angle-of-attack probe. If the pitot
tube(s) and/or static port(s) become restricted or blocked from
ice formation, unreliable operation or complete failure of flight
instruments and other pitot-static supported systems occurs
(refer to Avionics chapter for information on pitot/static system).
Two pitot tubes are on the forward fuselage, one on each side of
the nose section and a third standby pilot tube mounted on the
right fuselage near the nose. Six static ports, three on each side
of the aircraft, are just below the flight compartment windows. All
nine of the components incorporate electrical heating elements
controlled by the PITOT & STATIC switch on the tilt panel.
The angle-of-attack (AOA) bearing heater receives power any
time the PITOT & STATIC switch is ON. The TAT (Rosemont)
probe and the vane of the AOA are activated via the landing gear
squat switch.
Check all of the pitot/static system components during the exte-
rior preflight inspection.
When the PITOT & STATIC switch is ON, current sensors on the
left flight compartment side console (forward of the equipment
panel) connect to their respective pitot/static heater system. The
sensors detect a defective heating element by monitoring the
drop in amperage to the system. One pitot heater or both static
port heaters of the respective system (pilot’s or copilot’s) acti-
vate the current sensor and illuminate the corresponding L or R
P/S HTR OFF annunciator.

will result in a decrease in delivered brake pressure to that specific MASTER CYLINDER PRESSURE
wheel, rather than decreasing delivered brake pressure to both
main wheels. This will be sensed by the crew as more positive
braking when taxiing on contaminated surfaces.
Landing Gear
Squat switches on the left and right main landing gear supply
on-ground and in-air signals to various aircraft systems (Table
4I-1). DOWN and LOCK switches on the landing gear actuators
and UP-and-LOCK switches in the wheel wells control the gear
indicating system and the landing gear system during retraction
and extension.
Retraction
After the aircraft leaves the ground and the landing gear struts
extend, the left main gear squat switch opens to release the land-
ing gear handle locking solenoid.
Pulling the landing gear handle out releases it from the detent.
Moving the handle to the UP position begins the retraction
sequence by actuating the landing gear retract switch. Then the
red GEAR UNLOCK light illuminates, the hydraulic system
bypass valve closes to increase hydraulic pressure to 1,500 PSI,
and the landing gear control valve shifts to route hydraulic pres-
sure to the landing gear actuator retract ports. Hydraulic pres-
sure unlocks the internal downlocks; and the green NOSE, LH
and RH gear lights extinguish.

Landing Gear/Brakes/Steering
Extension
Pulling the landing gear control handle out to unlock it and mov-
ing it to the DOWN position begins the landing gear extension
sequence by actuating the landing gear control switch. The
GEAR UNLOCK light illuminates, the hydraulic system bypass
valve closes to pressurize the hydraulic system to 1,500 PSI,
and the landing gear control valve shifts to the extend position.
Hydraulic pressure then flows through the landing gear control
valve to the uplock actuators. The uplocks release and direct
pressure to the extend side of the landing gear actuators. The
gear begins extending.
As the landing gear reaches the down-and-locked position,
hydraulic pressure locks the landing gear with its mechanical
internal downlocks. The DOWN and LOCK switches actuate to
extinguish the GEAR UNLOCK light, illuminate the NO, LH and
RH gear lights, and open the hydraulic system bypass valve.
Emergency Extension
Pulling the red AUX GEAR CONTROL T-handle below the pilot’s
instrument panel mechanically releases the landing gear uplocks
to allow the landing gear to free-fall to the down-and-locked posi-
tion. Yawing the aircraft assists gear extension and locking by
exerting pressure on the landing gear through the gear doors.
With the gear handle in the DOWN position, the NO, LH and RH
gear position lights illuminate when the gear is down and locked.
Nosewheel Steering
With the aircraft on the ground, the nosewheel steering system
positions the nosewheel up to 20° left or right of center through
rudder pedal movement. Deflecting a rudder positions a bell-
crank between the pedals that connects through a bungee to a
steering arm. Movement of the steering arm then moves the
nosewheel through a universal joint and steering gears.
As the nose gear retracts, the universal joint pivots to center the
nosewheel. When the nose gear fully retracts, the joint swivels
to allow normal rudder pedal movement.
Normal Braking
An independent hydraulic system supplies pressure to operate
the brakes. With the landing gear extended and electrical power
available, a motor-driven hydraulic pump, controlled by a pres-
sure switch, pressurizes the system to 900 to 1,300 PSI. An
accumulator, precharged to 675 PSI with nitrogen, maintains
system pressure when the pump is not operating. If system pres-
sure falls below 750 PSI and the pump does not raise the pres-
sure over 750 PSI in 8 seconds, a pressure warning switch illu-
minates the POWER BRAKE LOW PRESS annunciator.
Pressing on the top of each rudder pedal (toe brake) mechanically
operates a master cylinder that hydraulically controls braking effort
supplied through the power brake and anti-skid valve. The power
brake and anti-skid valve, in turn, supplies pressure proportional
to braking effort to the brake assemblies. Under pressure, the
braking assembly piston extends against the pressure plate to
force the stationary and rotating discs together.
Emergency Braking
Pulling the EMER BRAKE PULL handle below the pilot’s instru-
ment panel mechanically opens the brake valve assembly to
release pressurized nitrogen into the supply lines. Pressure in the
supply lines shifts a shuttle valve at each wheel brake assembly
to stop normal hydraulic system pressure and to admit pressur-
ized nitrogen into the brake assemblies. Braking pressure is pro-
portional to handle extension. Anti-skid protection is not available.
Pulling the handle out completely supplies full pressure from the
bottle for maximum braking. Releasing the handle shifts the brake
valve assembly to vent pressure to atmosphere and release the
brakes.
Parking Brakes
With the aircraft on the ground and the hydraulic system pres-
surized, applying toe pressure applies the brakes. Pulling the
parking brake handle out shifts the parking brake valve to trap
pressure and hold the brakes. Pushing the handle down releas-
es the brakes.

Oxygen System
CAE SimuFlite
Oxygen Supply
Oxygen is available to the crew at all times and to the passen-
gers either manually through cockpit control or automatically if
cabin altitude exceeds 14,500 ± 500 ft.
Oxygen flows from the bottle through a regulator assembly
before it reaches the crew and passenger oxygen distribution
systems. The regulator assembly has a shutoff valve, pressure
regulator, and separate lines for an oxygen pressure gage, filler
valve, and an overpressure relief valve.
The bottle supplies oxygen between 1,600 and 1,800 PSI, and
the pressure regulator reduces bottle pressure to approximate-
ly 70 PSI. If bottle pressure reaches 2,850 ±150 PSI at 70°F
(21°C) or 2,600 ±100 PSI at 160°F (71°C), the overpressure
relief valve opens moving a pin against the green blowout disc
dislodging it outward to alert the crew that the bottle has dis-
charged. The green blowout disc is normally held in place by a
snap ring. The filler valve and pressure gage allows normal ser-
vicing of the bottle without removal.
The standard bottle capacity can be 49 or 76 cubic feet. This pro-
vides approximately 50 minutes to one hour of oxygen to the
passengers and crew.
The oxygen bottle is located in the right side of the avionics com-
partment floor. Filler valve and pressure gage access is through
the right nose compartment door. The burst disc indicator is on
the right lower nose.
Distribution
Oxygen flows directly to the pilot and copilot oxygen outlets
through the regulator assembly. The passenger supply flows
through a manually operated crew oxygen priority valve, pas-
senger manual shutoff valve, and an altitude pressure switch
controlled solenoid valve.
Crew System
The quick-donning, sweep-on diluter-demand crew oxygen mask
has a built-in regulator control/selector knob, oxygen pressure
detector and microphone. With the mask regulator in the NORM
position, the regulator dilutes oxygen with cabin air according to
cabin altitude. As cabin altitude increases, the regulator increas-
es the oxygen to cabin air ratio until it provides 100% oxygen.
Placing the regulator in the 100% position provides 100% oxy-
gen regardless of cabin altitude. Finally, placing the regulator in
the EMER position supplies 100% oxygen at positive pressure.
The oxygen pressure detector located in the oxygen mask hose,
indicates green with proper pressure and indicates red with low
pressure. When not required, the masks stow inside the pilot’s
and copilot’s side consoles.
Passenger System
With the OXYGEN CONTROL VALVE switch in the AUTO posi-
tion on the pilot’s side console oxygen control panel, oxygen
does not flow to the passenger oxygen distribution system at nor-
mal cabin altitudes. If cabin altitude exceeds 14,500 ±500 ft, the
altitude pressure switch closes to energize the passenger sole-
noid valve. The valve opens and oxygen flows through the pas-
senger distribution system. The initial pressure surge actuates
door release mechanisms that deploy the passenger oxygen
masks. The masks fall and hang by their lanyards. Pulling on the
lanyard releases a pin to allow oxygen flow.
When cabin altitude drops to approximately 10,000 ft, the alti-
tude pressure switch opens, the solenoid valve closes, and oxy-
gen flow to the passenger distribution system stops.
Placing the control switch in the ON position opens the manual
drop valve; oxygen flows to the passenger masks regardless of
cabin altitude. The passenger oxygen masks can be manually
deployed in the event of an emergency where the masks fail to
automatically deploy.

The Citation Excel is powered by two Pratt & Whitney of Canada
PW545A turbofan engines while the XLS is powered by two
PW545B engines. The PW545A and PW545B are lightweight
twin-spool, front turbofan engines. The PW545A produces
3,804 lbs and the PW545B produces 3,991 lbs of static thrust
at sea level with a medium bypass ratio to permit increased
cruise thrust.
After air enters the engine inlet, a front fan driven by the low
pressure (LP) turbine accelerates air rearward toward the axial
and centrifugal compressors and the full-length, annular
bypass duct. Over 4/5 of the total air flows around the engine
core through the bypass duct.
After the air passes through the fan, an axial compressor, dri-
ven by the low pressure turbine, accelerates the air before
passing it to the centrifugal compressor. The compressor, dri-
ven by the high-pressure (LP) turbine, slings air outward to
accelerate it to a high-velocity, low-pressure flow. The diffuser
converts the high-velocity flow into a low-velocity, high-pressure
flow before it reaches the combustion section.
After entering the annular, reverse-flow combustion section, the
airflow makes a 180° turn forward, then mixes with fuel introduced
by the 11 hybrid fuel nozzles. Initially ignited by two igniter plugs,
the air/fuel mixture burns and expands. The hot combustion
gases then flow to the exit duct where they make a 180° turn
before reaching the HP turbine. As the high velocity gas stream
passes through the turbine, the turbine rotates to extract energy
to drive the centrifugal compressor. The combustion gases then
flow through the three-stage LP turbine to rotate it. The low pres-
sure compressor is a single fan stage integrated bladed rotor
driven by single-stage HP turbine. The high pressure compressor
is driven by a single stage turbine. After exiting the turbine sec-
tion, the gas stream enters the exhaust duct where it mixes with
bypass air to produce forward thrust.
Lubrication System
The engine-driven oil pump draws oil from a tank and pro-
vides it under pressure through a fuel/oil heat exchanger and
filter to the engine bearings, bevel and spur gears, and
accessory gearbox.
After leaving the oil tank, oil passes through a chip collector and
through a filtering screen. If the filter becomes clogged, a bypass
valve opens, allowing lubrication to continue. The oil than pass-
es through the pressure element, or main body of the oil pump.
Before the oil enters the fuel/oil heat exchanger, it passes a cold
start/pressure adjusting valve, which bypasses cold oil back into
the tank if the starting oil pressure becomes to high. The cold
start/pressure adjusting valve also serves to maintain the desired
oil pressure. The oil then passes through individual strainers and
to the engine bearings. Pressurized oil from the number 5 bear-
ing continues to the accessory gear box to lubricate it. Four scav-
enge pumps return the oil from the main bearings and the acces-
sory gearbox, to the oil tank.
Pressure and temperature transmitters in the lubrication sys-
tem drive the vertical tape OIL PRESS and OIL TEMP gages.
Below approximately 20 PSI, the respective LO OIL PRESS
L/R annunciator illuminates.
Max oil consumption is 0.2 lbs/hr., tank capacity at max level is
6.13 QT, and 2.44 quarts are usable.
Throttle Detents
When the EEC system is functioning normally, the pneumatic
system provides detents in the throttle lever positions so that
power can be set automatically in 1) MAX T.O. (or GO Around),
2) MAX CLIMB (or Max Continuous) power and 3) MAX
CRUISE power.
Normal crew operations should include obtaining maximum N1
settings for takeoff and climb and comparing the numbers with
those set by the EECs. If the EECs revert to manual, the pneu-
matic supply is shut off and the detents will not be present in
the throttles.
Ground Idle
While the EEC system is functioning normally (AUTO) mode, the
engines will idle approximately 48-51% (N2) and the white GND
IDLE annunciator will illuminate. This idle mode will only take
effect 8 seconds after landing, or 8 seconds after selection of
EECs Auto from Manual position.
Engine Synchronizing
The engine synch system will match either N1 or N2 shaft RPM
of the right engine to the left engine setting when ENG SYNCH
is selected. Normally the system will have “Authority” to a differ-
ence of 4.75% in the two engine settings.
The switch can be set to synch N1 (Fan) RPMs or N2 (Turbine)
RPM, depending on whether passengers are present in the
cabin. The lower-frequency fan out-of-synch “beats” are more
easily heard in the cabin. The higher-frequency turbine out-of-
synch beats can be heard more easily in the cockpit. Most crews
will find synch of N2 more convenient on “Dead-head” less with
the close-matching of fuel flows.
When the system is shut off, the synch actuator centers, assisting
synching when the system is turned on again. Synch will not func-
tion in EEC manual mode or when throttles are in takeoff detents.
Manual Mode
When the EEC system is not functioning in the automatic mode,
a manual system of regulating fuel flow by the Fuel Control Unit
(FCU) takes over, and an annunciation appears in white EEC
MANUAL L/R. The throttles are connected by cables to the FCU
and in this mode, the FCU regulates N2 RPM. As mentioned
above, there are no detents in the throttle settings nor ground
idle in the EEC manual mode.
Throttle Levers
In normal EEC mode, the throttle position is relayed to its respec-
tive EEC by the use of a Rotary Variable Displacement
Transformer (RVDT). This is the device that converts the
mechanical position of the throttle into an electrical value so that
the EEC “Knows” the throttle position at any time. On the same
throttle bellcrank that drives the RVDTs, is a bank of four switch-
es, used to control functioning of pressurizaton, boost pumps
and ignition (Start Sequence), the no-takeoff and landing horns
and the speedbrakes auto-retract system.
Under pressure from the wing fuel system, fuel flows through the
firewall shutoff valve to the engine-driven fuel pump at approxi-
mately 30 PSI. A pressure switch between the firewall shutoff valve
and engine pump illuminates the LO FUEL PRESS L/R annunci-
ator, if fuel pressure drops below approximately 5.30 PSIG.
Low fuel pressure automatically turns the electric fuel boost
pump on if the boost pump switch is in the normal position. The
engine-driven fuel pump then delivers fuel at approximately 200
to 600 PSI through a filter to the fuel control unit (FCU).
In the manual EEC mode, movement of a throttle lever con-
trols the FCU through direct linkage. Each throttle lever has
a mechanical stop that prevents inadvertent selection of CUT-
OFF and a latch that must be released to advance the throt-
tle from CUTOFF to IDLE. In response to throttle movement,
the FCU meters fuel to provide efficient engine operation
based on engine N 2 speed, ambient and compressor dis-
charge pressure, compressor inlet temperature, and throttle
position during starting, acceleration, and shutdown.
Metered fuel from the FCU flows through the fuel/oil heat
exchanger to the flow divider valve and motive flow valve. A fuel
flow transmitter between the FCU and cooler drives the digital
FUEL FLOW gage. The digital readout shows fuel flow from 0 to
1,999 pounds-per-hour (PPH).
In the flow divider valve, the fuel flow splits to supply the primary
and secondary manifolds. The divider valve also controls fuel
pressure to the primary manifold during engine start and
ensures that fuel does not enter the manifolds until it reaches a
minimum pressure.
The motive flow valve supplies low pressure high-flow motive
flow fuel to the fuel system’s primary ejector pump.
From the flow divider valve, fuel flows to the fuel manifold
assembly. The assembly then distributes fuel to the fuel nozzle
primary and secondary passages. The fuel nozzles deliver a fine-
ly atomized spray of fuel into the engine’s combustion chamber.
An emergency fuel shutoff system prevents engine overspeed
by cutting fuel flow to the engine, should a catastrophic failure
occur. Axial displacement of the low pressure turbine shaft acti-
vates a plunger in the shutoff valve piston. The piston assembly,
in turn, activates the fuel inlet and emergency shutoff valve. Fuel
flow stops and the engine shuts down.
Ignition
During the engine start cycle, advancing a throttle out of the cut-
off position supplies power from the Battery bus to the ignition
exciters. The exciters provide high-voltage electrical pulses to
the two ignition plugs. The plugs, extending into the combustion
chamber, fire to ignite the fuel/air mixture. When the engine start
cycle terminates, the ignition system deactivates.
Placing the IGNITION LH/RH switch to ON supplies power for con-
tinuous ignition system operation. During ignition system opera-
tion a green light in each ITT gauge illuminates indicating that both
exciters are energized. If one ignitor should fail, ignition will still be
available from the remaining ignitor. If the ignition light does not
illuminate when ignition is selected, or should be automatically
provided, place ignition switches in SEC position and verify if
changing electrical source restores power. If not, check applica-
ble circuit breaker on the left CB panel or fuse in aft J box. Placing
ENGINE ANTI-ICE switch to ON also provides engine ignition.
Control
Each throttle lever mechanically connects with its engine FCU
through cables and bellcranks and controls the FCU from cutoff
to full thrust. A mechanical stop prevents inadvertent selection
of the CUTOFF position. A latch must be raised before the throt-
tle can be moved from CUTOFF to the IDLE position. In
response to throttle movement, the FCU then meters fuel to the
engine based on N2 RPM.
During intentional and unintentional thrust reverser operation, a
feedback cable between the thrust reverser actuating mecha-
nism, FCU, and throttle lever ensures that the FCU is in the idle
thrust position during thrust reverser deployment and stowing.
This mechanism also drives the associated throttle lever to the
idle position should an inadvertent deployment occur when the
throttle(s) are above idle.
Vibration Detector
An engine accelerometer is mounted on the top of the engine
secondary case to provide warning in the event of an engine
vibration. The annunciator is white ENG VIB L or R and illumi-
nates at vibration levels well below those that would cause dam-
age to rotor systems.
Installation
The APU is installed in the upper right tailcone area within a
stainless steel and titanium containment box. The respective
locations of the APU exhaust and intake openings are the same
as the intake and exhaust of the vapor cycle air conditioner, with
a significant materials change to stainless steel in the case of
the APU exhaust area. Access is available for maintenance per-
sonnel in the upper right fuselage through a screw panel and a
latching door for simple procedures such as oil level refilling.
APU Description
The APU is a lightweight, single-shaft, constant-speed gas tur-
bine whose operation is automatic. The APU is designed to
accelerate to a regulated speed and stabilize there, rather than
providing a large range of power settings. The power section
consists of a single-stage centrifugal impeller and single-stage
radial turbine, mounted on a common shaft. This section drives
an integral gearbox, which contains an oil reservoir. The gear-
box reduces the shaft speed to an RPM that is useable by the
generator. Fuel for combustion in most installations is drawn from
the right fuel tank. The right Boost Pump is used to supply fuel
under pressure to the APU fuel control unit and engine-driven
pump. Bleed air from the APU is fed into the bleed air cluster in
the tailcone through a shutoff valve, controlled from the APU
panel on the co-pilots side panel.
Normal Operation
The APU is designed to output 28.5VDC and/or bleed air for use
by the aircraft environmental and service air systems. The ECU
normally regulates the operation of the APU based on a priority
system. The highest priority in the system is maintaining shaft
horsepower (which translates for our purposes as Generator
Load). The ECU monitors EGT to protect the APU and regulates
fuel flow to maintain 100% RPM.
Bleed air is extracted from the compressor discharge, and when
significant bleed air is demanded by the aircraft systems the EGT
increases significantly. When there is demand for both outputs
from the APU (DC and bleed air) the ECU will direct a reduction
of the bleed air flow via the Bleed Air Valve. This reduction of
bleed air will ensure adequate shaft horsepower for its higher
priority system, DC Electric.
Operation
The Master Switch routes power to the ECU and illuminates the
displays in the copilot’s APU panel.
When the TEST button is depressed the following should be dis-
played: all three APU annunciators on the copilots main instru-
ment panel, READY TO LOAD, BLEED VAL OPEN annuncia-
tors, and displays of 50% RPM, 500° C, and 0.0 Volts. The TEST
button also initiates a test of the APU Fire System.
Start-Stop switch is placed momentarily into the START position.
If the ECU has detected no faults, the start sequence is initiated
and should be automatic to a stabilized RPM of 100%. The APU

Deploy
Before thrust reverser deployment can begin, the throttle
levers must be in the idle position and either landing gear
squat switch must be in the on-ground mode (main landing
gear struts compressed).
Pulling the thrust reversers levers up begins the deploy sequence
by actuating the stow/deploy switches to the deploy position.
There is a 2 second delay before the signal is sent to the hydraulic
control valve solenoids. The hydraulic system bypass valve then
closes and system pressure builds. The isolation valve then
opens to admit pressurized fluid into the thrust reverser system
hydraulic lines; the ARM lights illuminate once hydraulic pressure
reaches 200 PSI. The control valve then shifts to admit hydraulic
pressure to the thrust reverser actuator deploy ports.
Initial movement of the actuators from the stowed position actu-
ates the stow limit switches to the unlocked position; the
UNLOCK lights illuminate. Under hydraulic pressure, the actua-
tors continue moving to drive the thrust reverser doors to the
deployed position. When the doors reach the fully deployed posi-
tion, deploy limit switches actuate to illuminate the DEPLOY
lights and release the throttle lock solenoid. Full range of reverse
thrust is now available, however, reverse thrust is limited to 75%
of the TO/GA N1 thrust setting for any condition.
Stow
Moving the thrust reverser levers forward and down begins the
stow sequence by moving the stow/deploy switches to the stow
position. The control valves then shift to route hydraulic pressure
to the thrust reverser actuator stow ports. As the thrust reversers
begin stowing, the deploy limit switches de-actuate to extinguish
the DEPLOY lights. When the reverser mechanism stows and
locks, the stow limit switch de-actuates to extinguish the
UNLOCK lights, close the isolation valve, and open the hydraulic
system bypass valve. The ARM light extinguishes after the iso-
lation valve closes and pressure in the thrust reverser system
drops below 200 PSI.
Emergency Stow
If a thrust reverser unlocks or begins deploying in flight, the
associated UNLOCK light illuminates. A feedback mechanism
between the thrust reverser operating mechanism and the
engine’s fuel control limit then reduces engine power to idle
thrust. Placing the associated STOW switch in the STOW
EMER position supplies 28V DC to close the hydraulic system
bypass valve, open the isolation valve, and shift the control
valve to the stow position. Hydraulic pressure then forces the
unlocked thrust reverser to the stowed position. During an
emergency stow the ARM light remains illuminated and the
hydraulic system bypass valve remains closed as long as the
STOW switch is in the STOW EMER position.
The emergency stow function can be checked on the ground by
deploying the reversers normally and then actuating each
emergency stow switch. The DEPLOY and UNLOCK lights shall
extinguish. The ARM light and the HYD PRESS ON annuncia-
tor remain illuminated. Return the thrust reverser level to the
stowed position, then turn each emergency stow switch off. All
lights shall extinguish.

Sample TAF
A Terminal Aerodrome Forecast (TAF) describes the forecast
prevailing conditions at an airport and covers either a 9-hour peri-
od or a 24-hour period. Nine-hour TAFs are issued every three
hours; 24-hour TAFs are issued every six hours. Amendments
(AMD) are issued as necessary. A newly issued TAF automati-
cally amends and updates previous versions. Also, many foreign
countries issue eighteen hour TAFs at six hour intervals.
The following example has detailed explanations of the
new codes.

Sample METAR
A routine aviation weather report on observed weather, or
METAR, is issued at hourly or half-hourly intervals. A special
weather report on observed weather, or SPECI, is issued
when certain criteria are met. Both METAR and SPECI use
the same codes.
A forecast highly likely to occur, or TREND, covers a period of
two hours from the time of the observation. A TREND forecast
indicates significant changes in respect to one or more of the fol-
lowing elements: surface wind, visibility, weather, or clouds.
TREND forecasts use many of the same codes as TAFs.
Most foreign countries may append a TREND to a METAR or
SPECI. In the U.S., however, a TREND is not included in a
METAR or SPECI.
The following example indicates how to read a METAR.

Oxygen
The oxygen filler valve is inside the access door in the right for-
ward avionics compartment, near the aft of the compartment.
Maintenance personnel fill the bottle with MIL-O-27210 Type I
breathing oxygen. Check the cockpit gage during servicing to
prevent overfill.

Toilet
The aircraft may be equipped with either an aft carry out flush
toilet or an externally serviceable flush toilet. Both types require
servicing when the liquid level becomes too low or when liquid
appears to have incorrect chemical balance. Instructions for
servicing the toilets are found in Aircraft Maintenance Manual,
Chapter 12.
AIRWAY
■ Open airway: lift chin, tilt head. (jaw thrust without head tilt.)
■ Look for chest movement.
■ Listen for sound of breathing.
■ Feel for breath on your cheek.
BREATHING
If not breathing:
■ Tilt head position – cover nose & mouth with pocket mask.
■ Give two full breaths (2 seconds each) while maintaining air-
tight seal using a barrier device (i.e., pocket mask).
CIRCULATION
■ Check for signs of circulation.
■ Signs of circulation can include:
• pulse
• breathing
• coughing
• movement
■ If no signs of circulation:
■ Begin external chest compressions by locating hand posi-
tion mid point between the nipples (hands should be on the
lower half of sternum (breastbone)) and place heal of hand
on breastbone.
Heart Attack
Signals
■ Pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain in center of chest
behind breastbone.
■ Sweating
■ Nausea
■ Shortness of breath
■ Feeling of weakness
Actions for Survival
■ Recognize signals
■ Stop activity and lie or sit down
■ Provide oxygen if available
■ If signals persist greater than two minutes, get victim to med-
ical assistance.
Choking
If victim can cough or speak:
■ encourage continued coughing
■ provide oxygen if available.
If victim cannot cough or speak:
■ perform (abdominal thrusts):
1. stand behind victim; wrap arms around victim’s waist
2. place fist of one hand (knuckles up) in upper abdomen*
3. grasp fist with opposite hand
4. press fist into upper abdomen* with quick, inward and
upward thrusts
5. perform maneuver until foreign body is expelled
■ provide supplemental oxygen if available.
* If victim is pregnant or obese, perform chest thrusts instead
of abdominal thrusts.
