    71.  Crosswind landingh

         The crab technique should be used for crosswind
         landings.  Use the normal threshold speeds.  Kick off the
         drift and place the aircraft firmly on the ground.  Some
         differential braking may be required to keep straight.

    72.  Checks after landing                 

         Brakes			Pressure sufficient for taxy-
         			  ing (200 lb./sq.in. min. in
         			  system).
         Flaps			Up
         Pressure-head heater	Off
         Windscreen heaters	Off
         Oxygen			Off

    73.  Shut-down procedure

    (a)  Stop the engines by turning off the H.P. cocks.
    
    (b)  After the engines have stopped, check:-
 
         L.P. pumps		Off
         Balance cock		Up
         Compass		Off
         V.H.F.			Off
         Chocks			In position
         Brakes 		Off
         Ground/flight switch	GROUND
         
         N.B.-It is important to ensure that the engines have
              stopped turning before putting the ground/
              flight switch to GROUND; if this is not done the
              j.p.t. gauges may be damaged.

    ASYMMETRIC FLYING
    
         NOTE:-It must be remembered that the hydraulic pump
         is on the starboard engine.  All the hydraulic ser-
         vices may be operated normally if the starboard
         engine is running but, if it is stopped, the hydrau-
         lic accumulator only provides sufficient pressure
         to lower the undercarriage and flaps fully and to
         operate the airbrakes open and closed once.
