essential and a descent in Manual is being made, control
is more comfortable at 175 knots.

A.L.2 (c) Check and/or set the following:-
H.P. and L.P. cocks OFF
Booster-pumps OFF
Tailplane incidence ½° nose-up
Tailplane switch OFF
All non-essential electrics OFF
Aileron trim Safety lock off
Indicator zero
Elevator and aileron Leave on temprorarily, but
power select OFF
(1) Before electric power fails
(2) If a false anchorage occurs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(d) (i) Engine failure may lead to either or both electrical
and hydraulic failure. Experience shows that at
200 knots windmilling r.p.m. will create sufficient
hydraulic pressure for limited use of the power
controls, but large or frequent use of the controls
or selection of any of the services may cause Manual
reversion. If pressure then rebuilds, false anchorages
may occur
(ii) Selecting Power off can only be accomplished
whilst electrical power is available. To avoid the
danger of obtaining a false anchorage with no
electrical power available and to prevent inadvertent
Manual reversion at an inconvenient stage of the
approach, select Power off before electrical failure
occurs. When gliding at 210 knots, windmilling
r.p.m. at high altitude will be sufficient to keep the
generators charging, but r.p.m. will decrease gradu-
ally as height is lost. Frequent checks on the gener-
ator warning lights should be made, and after they
come on, the batteries should not be relied on for
more than 5 minutes.
