Manually applying altitude corrections
(Note: ProLine Fusion applies corrections automatically)
The ILS glideslope and WAAS glidepath are unaffected by cold temperatures
and will provide reliable vertical guidance to the corrected DA/DH. A Baro-
VNAV glidepath will be affected by cold temperatures and must be corrected
when at or below the temperature limit by using the LNAV/VNAV line of
minima to DA/DH.
2.a Enter chart with FAF altitude (AGL) and apply that correction to FAF.
Also apply this correction to all fixes out to the IAF.
2.b. Enter chart with DA/DH/MDA altitude (AGL) and apply that correction to
the DA/DH/MDA and any stepdown fixes.
2.c. Enter chart with MAP Final Hold altitude (AGL) and apply that correction
to the MAP Final Hold altitude.

TAKEOFF / LANDING DATA INFO
TOFL = Greatest of:
115% of 2-Eng Distance to 35 ft AGL, or
Accel/Stop (from V1), or
1-Eng Accel/Go Distance (= Eng. fail at V1 and climb to 35 ft AGL)
V1 = Max speed enabling a Stop or Min speed to Takeoff to 35’ in
remaining Rwy. This distance is the balanced field length.
V2 = Takeoff safety speed = Speed at 35’ if Single Engine
14
Runway Declared Distances defined below are available in the
Chart Supplement, Airport Facility Directory (A/FD):
• Clearway is the area beyond the paved runway that is free of all
types of obstructive material
• Stopway is the area used to slow the aircraft in case of an
aborted takeoff
• TORA is the runway length available for the takeoff run.
• TODA is TORA plus clearway when available
• ASDA is TORA plus stopway when available
• LDA is the length of runway available for the ground run of the
landing aircraft
15
Mu values are approximate and intended to be used only to downgrade a condition
code, except as identified in Note 2. Airport managers use their best judgment applying
readings from friction measuring devices.
2 In some cases the runway surface conditions may not be as slippery as the RCAM
assigned values. The airport manager may opt to raise the condition code (no higher
than 3) if the measured Mu is 40 or higher and all other indications
support a higher code than a 0 or 1.

AOA REFERENCES
Stall Warning = .79 - .91 .60 - .70 ≅ V2 (1-Eng)
Stick-Shaker = .80 - .85+
Stall = 1.00 .35 ≅ Max Range Cruise,
Vref = .60 and is also Venr (1-Eng),
Max Endurance, Vy (2-Eng)
Vx (1- or 2-Eng)
Note: AOA values are most useful
at approach speeds and near stall.
AOA is not precise for cruise
settings. Use Mach and airspeed as
primary metrics for Cruise
performance.
CJ3 Glide Ratio is 12.7:1 at Max Glide Speed: This is the glide range
to be expected when flying the glide speeds provided in the Emergency
Procedures Checklist for Maximum Glide Emergency Landing checklist.
If using Foreflight, can insert this value in the Foreflight Glide Advisor
function.

Cold Weather Operations CJ3
On-Ground Operations
Temperature: Operating Constraint:
-54°C / -65°F Minimum Ambient Temp for Takeoff (observing other limits below)
-40°C / -40°F Minimum Temp for Jet A Fuel (EIS). Put aircraft in hangar if exceeded
a) Do Not power up FADECs (via battery on) until they’re warmed above
-40°C. A non-resettable amber Eng. Cntl. Sys fault is possible if < -40°C
(start prohibited with fault).
b) If engine and/or engine oil temperature is below -40°C, the engine
must be preheated prior to start. Min Eng. Oil Temp ind. on EIS is -40°C
-18°C / -0°F If the battery has been cold soaked for 2 hours or longer at ambient
surface temperature of -18°C (0°F) or lower, it must be preheated to
above -18°C (0°F) prior to start.
-15°C / +5°F a) “Cold Soak” is defined as > 2 hours below -15°C / airplane parked
without engines and systems operating. Remove battery to a warm area
or use battery heater. Do not use control lock, chock wheels (parking
brake unreliable), retract flaps.
b) Starting after cold soak - use external power or preheated battery.
Terminate start if N2< 8%. Potential “no-start” if <11 volts with start
button.
-10°C / +14°F a) The engine indicating system (EIS) can take 1 to 6 minutes to become
usable after power is applied when cold soaked below -10°C
b) Cabin must be >0°C for >20 min. before takeoff and for flight above
FL240, if cold soaked >2 hours at -10°C or colder, for proper operation of
the Pax O2 masks. N/A if no Pax.
0°C / +32°F Remove O2 masks if parked at <0°C Cabin must be heated to a
temperature of 0°C (+32°F) prior to operation above 24,000 feet.
10ºC / +50°F a) Tactile check of the wing leading edge/upper surface to verify no frost,
ice, snow, or slush if OAT <10ºC and: visible moisture in the air, water on
wing, <3ºC temp-dewpoint spread, or conditions conducive to frost. Also
required if can't determine fuel temp >0°C regardless of OAT.
b) Do not operate engine >80% N2 until Oil Temp >10°C
Notes:
1. Ambient surface temperature must be obtained from the RAT display on the PFD, with at least
one engine running, or from an appropriate ground station. The SAT display is unreliable on the
ground.
2. Icing conditions on the ground exist when the OAT or indicated RAT is +10°C or below, and
where surface snow, slush, ice, or standing water may be ingested by the engines or freeze on
engine nacelles, or engine sensor probes. Use Anti-Ice ON for these conditions, even if “clear and a
million.”
21
In-flight Operations (Cold Weather)
Temperature Operating Constraint:
(RAT):
-54°C / -65°F Minimum Ambient Temp for Takeoff (observing other limits below)
-40°C / -40°F Minimum Temp for Jet A Fuel (EIS). Put aircraft in hangar if exceeded
-40°C / -40°F(SAT) When SAT is below -40°C, wing and engine anti-ice systems may be
operated in ENG ONLY if it can be visually verified no ice is
accumulating.
0°C / +32°F a) Cabin must be >0°C for flight above FL240 for proper operation of
the Pax O2 masks. N/A if no Pax.
+5°C / +10F On descent WINDSHIELD BLEED Switch LOW below 18,000 feet if
landing with temperature/dewpoint spread of less than 5°C (HIGH if
RAT is -18°C or below)
10ºC / +50°F a) Engine anti-ice must be ENG ON or WING/ENG for operations with
indicated RAT of +10°C or below, when flight into visible moisture is a
possibility.
b) The wing/engine anti-ice systems may be operated in the ENG ON
position and the windshield anti-ice and tail deice may be OFF provided
it can be visually verified that no ice is accumulating.
Notes:
1. Flight is prohibited in freezing rain, freezing drizzle, or mixed icing conditions
(supercooled liquid water and ice crystals).
2. Icing conditions exist when the indicated RAT in flight is +10°C or below, and visible moisture in
any form is present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of 1 mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, or ice
crystals).

CJP SOPs
I. Pilot Physiological Considerations
Duty Day:
a) 8 hours of flight time in any calendar day (12 hours with
safety pilot)
b) Duty day max 14 hours, or 8 hours during 0200-0600; 16
hours with safety pilot, or12 during 0200-0600
c) Rest 10 hours between duty periods; 8 hours with safety pilot
24
If flying VFR:
a) Request VFR flight following if flying >25nm
b) Be able to maintain ≥ 2000’ above the tallest obstacle within
5 miles laterally of route
V. Surface Operations
a) Max wind for taxi, take off or land is 50 knots, including
gusts
b) Do not operate on any surface with braking action reported
as nil
25
VII. Enroute
a) No non-operationally necessary conversation below 10,000’
MSL: during any segment of an approach procedure, or
during the last 1000’ before level off during climb or descent
b) No vertical speed mode for autopilot climb above 30,000’
MSL
c) “Minimum Fuel” when fuel state becomes less than fuel to
destination plus 45 minutes at current burn
d) “Emergency Fuel” when fuel less than 45 min at current fuel
flow. Divert to and land at the nearest suitable airport
26
e) If the reported visibility is less than 1 SM, conduct approach
with the autopilot engaged
f) During any approach autopilot engaged, maintain a hand on
the yoke when the aircraft is below 1,000’ AFL
g) Apply Safe To Land SM Stable Approach and Landing
Criteria for all flights VMC and IMC: Initiate a Go -
Around if the approach cannot be stabilized by the 200’ Go
Around Gate (DA / MDA if Instrument Approach) or earlier
if in the pilot’s judgement approach stability will not be
achieved. Refer to the STL Cue Card
Additionally, touchdown within Longitudinal TPL
(‘Floating’) and Lateral TPL (‘Drifting’) touchdown zone
gates (‘Limit’) or Go Around. Refer to STL Cue Card
h) When flying an approach with Baro-VNAV guidance on
final, the pilot should obtain and cross-check a minimum of
two independent altimeter settings. Possible sources include:
ATIS/ AWOS / ASOS / ATC / METAR via SXM, ADS-
B in, or Datalink
Approaching minimums, the pilot should check the radar
altitude (if equipped), against the charted height above TDZ
at minimums. Understand that variations in terrain and
buildings can cause a difference in displayed RA
If the aircraft has the ability to set two different minimums
alerts (e.g., ProLine 21), consider setting one alert to Radar
height above TDZ and one to Baro minimums
i) When landing on a runway with a parallel runway also
actively being used for landing, load an instrument approach
if one exists and use the autopilot for lateral tracking until
short final, even if flying a visual approach
j) Don’t exceed the demonstrated crosswind component:
If braking action is reported as less than good observe the
following crosswind component restrictions:
27
Braking Action X-Wind Component
Good Max demonstrated
Good-Medium Max minus 5
Medium Max minus 10
Medium-Poor Max minus 15
Poor Max minus 20
Nil Do not operate
28
h) Logged in an aircraft of the same type, within the preceding
45 days, at least 1 hour of flight time, and 1 takeoff and
landing, and
i) Completed simulator based recurrent training (including a
61.58) in type within the preceding 12 calendar months
