warm engines).
APU START
a. Power control switch -
EXT PWR and PARallel BATtery (proceed to step 11. ).
10. EXT PWR switch ON (if applicable). -
NOTE
. When engine-driven hydraulic pumps are not operating, an
electrically-operated auxiliary hydraulic pump automatically
provides hydraulic pressure for operation of brakes and wing
flaps when either the battery or an APU is utilized for electrical
power. Check auxiliary hydraulic pump by applying brakes several
times and observing hydraulic system pressure gage. Auxiliary
hydraulic system pressure should return to 470 to 605 psi when
brakes are released. It is normal for the pump to cycle periodically
with hydraulic system in a static condition.
STARTING ENGINES
Engine starts can be made with aircraft battery power or with auxilary de electrical power; however, it is
recommended that an auxiliary power unit (APU) be used when ambient air temperature is 10oF or below. As-
sure that APU is regulated to 26-volts dc and capable of providing a minimum of 16-volts dc and 800 amps dur-
ing starting cycle. Observe APU ammeter during start.
CAUTION
Do not use an APU which produces in excess of 1000 amps during initial start
sequence. Current greater than 1000 amps may produce arcing which can
damage starter-generator or cause starter-generator brushes to stick.
If feathered:
a. Start selector switch AIR. -
c. Engine control switch START RUN (observe propeller blade angle until propeller blades
-
The FUEL ON position of the engine control switch opens the fuel tank shutoff valve and turns on
fuel boost pump for appropriate engine.
7. Engine control switch START RUN (observe propeller rotation).-
The START RUN position of the engine control switch engages the starter and arms the engine fuel
valve and the ignitor circuit for automatic activation at 10 percent engine rpm.
NOTE
If engine lightoff has not occurred by 15 percent engine rpm, place
ignition switch in the override position and observe rise in EGT.
Release ignition override switch after 50-percent engine rpm is obtained.
If oil pressure is not indicated on engine gage within 10 seconds, shutdown engine and determine
cause. Oil pressure of 150 psi is permissible during cold weather starting.
10. Fuel pressure 37 PSI MINIMUM.

NOTE
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
CLEARING ENGINES
Clearing an engine of fuel or vapors is accomplished by allowing 3 minutes for fuel to drain from the engine
before attempting another start, or motoring engine by the following procedure:
CAUTION
ENGINE RUNUP
CAUTION
After engine rpm reaches a steady state condition, move condition lever to HIGH RPM and slowly
advance power lever toward MAX. POWER position until there is no increase of engine rpm with
further forward movement of power lever (overspeed governor is controlling engine rpm). Engine
rpm must be 103 to 105 percent at this point. Do not prolong overspeed governor check at engine
speeds above 100 percent engine rpm.
CAUTION
Do not exceed 105 percent engine rpm. If engine rpm exceeds 105 percent,
move power lever to FLT IDLE position immediately and then shut down engine.
NOTE
If engine speed will not increase above 100 percent rpm, propeller pitch locks
are probably disengaged. Stop engine to engage locks, then restart engine with
power lever slightly more advanced than in previous start. Repeat governor
check in accordance with step 1. a.
b. Power lever -
GND IDLE.
Move power lever toward REVERSE a few degrees at a time until Beta lights extinguish
and come back on.
NOTE
If pitch locks do not disengage, return power lever to START position and
repeat step 2. b.
c. Power lever -
GND IDLE.
3. Preflight operation -
CHECK.
e. Condition lever HIGH RPM (engine speed should increase to 97. 5 percent
-
engine rpm).
Move power lever toward MAX. POWER position until propeuer pitch is controued by pro-
peller governor, which is indicated when engine speed is 99. 5 to 101 percent rpm, and engine
speed does not increase with further movement of power lever.
g. Engine inlet anti-icing switch ON (inlet anti-icing indicator light shau illuminate).
-
CAUTION
Do not leave engine inlet anti-icing switch in ON position for more than 10
seconds when ambient temperature is above 40°F.
GROUND OPERATION
Engine warmup is not necessary. When engine instruments stabilize and are within operating limits at ground
idle, the power lever may be advanced.
CAUTION
A water or slush induced flameout may occur if takeoffs or landings are conducted
on runways with standing water or slush depths in excess of one-half inch.

that the aircraft be parked headed into the wind. Allow a minimum of
10 minutes for cooling before installing protective plugs in the engines.
SYSTEMS OPERATION
The following are system operating procedures for the Model 680W:
The systems are independently controlled and provide cabin environmental air.
NORMAL OPERATION. Cabin cruising altitude and rate of climb should be established prior to engine start.
Before Starting Engine:
NOTE
Aircraft altitude at maximum differential cabin pressure appears in small
window of cabin pressure controller dial face. Recommended procedure is
to set aircraft altitude in small window approximately 500 feet greater than
programmed aircraft cruise altitude.
NOTE
The GND HEAT or GND COOL position of the air conditioning selector
switch can be used to maintain cabin temperature if FLIGHT AUTO
temperature control is inoperative.

follows:
CABIN DEPRESSURIZATION. The cabin can be depressurized by either of the two following procedures:
1. Ram Air Depressurization:
a. Oxygen masks DON. -
OXYGEN SYSTEM
Oxygen for the flight crew and passengers is supplied from an oxygen cylinder, located in the baggage compart-
ment, which contains 22.0 cubic feet of oxygen at 1800 psi. Automatic regulation of oxygen flow to the oxygen
outlets is accomplished by adjusting the oxygen altitude gage to the aircraft altitude, with the oxygen altitude ad-
justment control. Oxygen will immediately flow to the masks when the face mask supply line is connected to an
oxygen outlet.
EXTERIOR INSPECTION
NORMAL OPERATION
3. Oxygen masks -
DON.
NOTE
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
System Operation:
CAUTION
NOTE
If generator output exceeds 200 amps, load should be manually
reduced to below 200 amps. If electrical load cannot be reduced
below 200 amps, place battery switch in OFF position and if generator
output drops below 200 amps, keep battery switch in OFF position.
FUEL SYSTEM
The 680V fuel system consists of interconnected fuel cells which form a single tank. The fuel tank sump con-
tains two electrically operated fuel boost pumps which are controlled by the appropriate engine control switch.
The right engine control switch must be in either the FUEL ON or START RUN position for cabin heater operation.
FUEL CAPACITY
Usable fuel capacity is 286. 5 gallons. When long range fuel cells are installed, usable fuel capacity is 337. 5
gallons.
The FUEL ON position of the engine control switch opens the fuel tank shutoff valve and turns on
fuel boost pump for appropriate engine.
1. Fuel pressure -
37 PSI (Minimum).
A fuel pressure indication of less than 37 psi indicates failure of the engine-driven fuel pump.
The 'fuel level low' warning light will illuminate when the total fuel available has decreased to 31 gallons
(approximately 200 pounds).
FUEL HEATER
An oil-fuel heat exchanger, installed on the engine, provides fuel filter anti-icing. For satisfactory fuel filter
anti-icing engine oil temperature must be above 55°C.
The engine inlet anti-ice system utilizes engine bleed air to provide anti-icing for the engine inlets. When out-
side air temperatures of 40°F or below and icing conditions are encountered, the anti-ice switches must be
placed in the ON position.

ENGINE FAILURES
If engine failure is due to improper operating technique, an airstart can usually be made to restore engine ope-
ration. If an obvious mechanical failure occurs, an airstart should not be attempted. Unbalanced engine thrust
has a slight tendency to yaw the aircraft toward the dead engine. This yaw can be neutralized with rudder trim
and aileron.

2. Single Engine:
AIRSTART
Successful air starts can be made at altitudes below 20,000 feet, within a wide range of airspeeds (see Figure 3-1). Before
attempting an airstart an effort should be made to determine the cause of engine failure. If failure is caused by an obvious
mechanical failure, as indicated by the engine instruments or excessive vibration, an air start should not be attempted.
* CÈTION
NOTE
During air start engine will accelerate to approximately 103
percent engine rpm, which is the overspeed governor limit, and
then stabilize at approximately 96 percent engine rpm.
NOTE
After an air start is accomplished, engine warmup is not
necessary. When engine instruments stabilize and fall within
their operating limits, the power lever may be positioned as
required.
PROPELLER FEATHERING
NOTE
Feathering cycle will require approximately 15 seconds.
If an abrupt loss or fluctuation of horsepower indication occurs, ±50 HP or more, immediately shutdown and feather the
engine. Correct the fault prior to the next flight.

FREE AIR TOTAL TEMP
SYSTEM FAILURES
The Model 680Wis equipped with two engine-driven hydraunc pumps and an electrically-driven auxiuary
hydraunc pump. The engine-driven hydraunc pumps supply hydraulic pressure for the pressurization system,
which in turn suppues hydraunc pressure through a pressure reducing valve to the utiuty hydraunc system.
Failure of an engine-driven pump will be indicated by a drop in pressurization hydraunc system pressure and a
decrease in cabin pressurization. A sught drop in utility hydraulic system pressure may also be noted. A
complete loss of "pressurization hydraulic system" pressure will prevent cabin pressurization and stop the
flow of hydraulic fluid to the utility hydraulic system. The utility hydraulic system pressure will drop from
1000 psi to 470-605 psi. A pressure reading of 470-605 psi indicates that the auxiliary pump is maintaining
hydraulic pressure for emergency operation of the wheel brakes and wing flaps.
NOTE
If the electricany-driven auxiuary hydraulic pump fails to maintain
a hydraulic pressure of 470-605 psi a complete hydraulic failure exists.
NOTE
Do not pump brakes. Maintain a steady brake pressure until
aircraft is stopped.
1. Wing flaps -
AS REQUIRED.
The wing flaps may be set at any desired flap setting by returning the flap control handle to
NEUTRAL when the desired flap setting is obtained.
NOTE
Limit positioning of wing flaps to a single operation. For a no-
flap landing, accomplish a power-on approach at 130/o of VS'
NOTE
Air pressure from the landing gear emergency air storage
cylinder will extend the main landing gear to the down and
locked position. The nose gear will free fall to the down and
locked position. Allow 3 minutes for full extension of gear.
CABIN PRESSURIZATION
1. Overpressurization:
If the cabin differential pressure exceeds 4. 2 psi, indicating that the safety valve has failed, cabin
should be depressurized immediately.
If this light illuminates, it indicates low cabin supercharger oil pressure, and the pressurization
equipment should be turned off.
If the hydraulic temperature light illuminates discontinue pressurized operation and turn off
pressurization equipment as soon as practicle.
5. Rapid Depressurization:
During extreme emergencies the cabin can be depressurized in the following manner:
GENERATOR FAILURE
The Model 680Wis equipped with two dc generators. If one generator fails, place that generator master switch
to OFF position.
ENGINE FIRE
If a fire occurs in either engine:
SMOKE IN COCKPIT
If smoke is detected in the cabin area, place air conditioning selector switch to RAM position. Use oxygen
equipment as necessary. After cabin is depressurized, pilots side window may be used for additional
smoke removal.
CAUTION
Do not confuse fog from cabin air outlets with smoke. Fog may be
removed from cabin by pressing DE-FOG switch.
HEATER MALFUNCTION
If the heater indicator light (green)is NOT illuminated when the heater actuating switch is energized a malfunc-
tion has occurred and the heater must NOT be operated until a ground inspection has been accomplished.
If the heater fails to operate while the green indicator light is illuminated, the heater ignition unit contact points
may have failed. The reserve contacts should be engaged immediately, by pulling out the reserve contacts
switch button installed on the trim tab control paneL If the heater continues to remain inoperative, a ground
inspection will be required to determine the cause.

AIRSPEED TERMINOLOGY
The airspeed terminology is presented below in what is called the Normal Airspeed Sequence. This sequence
begins with the airspeed actually seen by the pilot and progresses through the several airspeeds which can be
derived from the airspeed indicator and other information.
1. INDICATED AIRSPEED (IAS or VI), is the number actually read from an airspeed indicator.
2. INSTRUMENT CORRECTED AIRSPEED (ICAS or VIC), is the result of correcting the Indicated
Airspeed for mechanical errors in the indicating instrument itself, but not for other errors which
may be present.
3. CALIBRATED AIRSPEED (CAS or VC), is the result of further correcting the Instrument Corrected
Airspeed for error of the pressure inputs to the airspeed indicator, which are termed position errors.
4. EQUIVALENT AIRSPEED (EAS or VE), is the result of correcting Calibrated Airspeed for instru-
ment scale compressibility errors. These errors result from the fact that actual atmospheric
conditions usually differ from the conditions assumed in the instrument calibration equation to
which the instrument is built.
5. TRUE AIRSPEED (TAS or VT), is the result of correcting the Equivalent Airspeed for instrument
scale errors in air density. These errors result from the fact that the actual air density is usually
different from the density assumed in the instrument calibration equation to which the instrument is
built.
6. GROUND SPEED (GS or VG), though not an airspeed, is directly calculable from True Airspeed if
the true wind speed and direction are known.
PRESSUREALTITUDETERMINOLOGY
The pressure altitude terminology is presented below in what is called the Normal Altitude Sequence. This
sequence begins with setting the altimeter barometric scale to get the number read from the altimeter and
progresses through intermediate steps to Calibrated Pressure Altitude.
1. INDICATED PRESSURE ALTITUDE (PA or hii), is the number actually read from an altimeter
when, and only when, the barometric scale (allsman Window) has been set to 29. 92 inches of
mercury (1013 millibars).
2. INSTRUMENT CORRECTED PRESSURE ALTITUDE (ICPA or hgic), is the result of correcting the
Instrument Corrected Pressure Altitude for mechanical errors m the indicating instrument itself,
but not for other errors which may be present.
3. CALIBRATED PRESSURE ALTITUDE or simply PRESSURE ALTITUDE (PA or hp), is the result
of further correcting Instrument Corrected Pressure Altitude for error of the pressure input to
the instrument, which is termed a position error.
AIR TEMPERATURETERMINOLOGY
Air temperature measurement terminology is presented below primarily for purposes of clarification, since all
performance data is presented directly in terms of the instrument corrected reading of the Scott Aerotherm
Indicator (FATT), which is provided for the pilot.
1. INDICATED FREE AIR TŒAL TEMPERATURE (IFATT), is the number actually read from the
Scott Aerotherm Indicator.
2. .
FREE AIR TŒAL TEMPERATURE (FATT), is the result of correcting the Indicated Free Air
Total Temperature for instrument error. It is the name arbitrarily assigned to the value sensed
by the temperature probe, and it incorporates the probe recovery factor.
A moving temperature sensor will measure a higher temperature than a stationary (static) sensor
because of the higher energy of the air relative to a moving vehicle. This temperature rise is a
function of, and increases with, both aircraft Mach Number and the static air temperature itself.
3. FREE AIR STATIC TEMPERATURE (FAST), is the outside air temperature which would be sensed
by a perfect, stationary temperature sensor. In general, the Free Air Static Temperature can be
derived from the Free Air Total Temperature using the aircraft Calibrated Airspeed, Pressure
Altitude, and the temperature probe recovery factor. Many standard flight computers can execute
the computation of temperature rise.
It is noted that FAST and FATT are equal at zero airspeed.
4. OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE (OAT), refdrs to the Free Air Static Temperature (FAST), whether
obtained from the Scott Aerotherm Indicator or obtained from the control tower or other sources.
The difference between FAST and OAT is simply one of usage in regard to the information source.
POWER TERMINOLOGY
Performance data presented in the FAÀapproved section of the Airplane Flight Manual makes use of two power
ratings: Maximum Continuous Power (MCP) and Takeoff Power (TOP). Data.is provided to show the scheduled
shaft horsepower which should be obtained at these ratings for the various performance conditions presented.
The scheduled shaft horsepower must be obtained if scheduled performance is to be achieved, however, the
applicable exhaust gas temperature (EGT) limit must never be exceeded. It may happen that the Scheduled
Power is reached with the actual EGT still below the limiting EGT. Such a margin between actual and limiting
EGT should not be used except in emergency.

FLIGHT MANUAL SECTIONIV
PERFORMANCE
1. MAXIMUM NORMAL POWER (MNP), is the highest power rating for normal use and is not limited
by time. It is defined for operation between 96% and 100% RPM and must never exceed 500 shaft .
horsepower per engine, nor exceed the EGT Limit for MNP (538°C). Maximum Normal Power is
not used in the FAA Approved Performance Section of this Flight Manual because such Approved
data corresponds to critical flight conditions only.
2. MAXIMUM CONTINUOUS POWER (MCP), is the highest power rating not limited by time. It is
defined for operation at 100% RPM and must never exceed 500 shaft horsepower per engine, nor
exceed the EGT Limit for MCP (550oC). The Scheduled Shaft Horsepower for MCP is presented
for Twin Engine Normal Climb (Fig. 4-7), and Single Engine Clean Climb (Fig. 4-10) as a function
of Free Air Total Temperature, Pressure Altitude and Scheduled Climb Speed. Use of this rating
should be limited to emergency situations.
3. TAIŒOFF POWER (TOP), is the maximum gower rating and is limited to a maximum of 5 minutes
operation. It is defined for operation at 10070 RPM and must never exceed 575 shaft horsepower
per engine, nor exceed the EGT Limit for TOP (5760C). The Scheduled Shaft Horsepower for TOP
is presented for the Static Takeof Condition (Fig. 4-3), Takeof Climb (Fig. 4-5), and Balked
Landing Climb (Fig. 4-12) as a function of Free Air Total Temperature, Pressure Altitude, and
Scheduled Climb Speed. Use of this rating should be limited to Normal Takeof Operations and
emergency situations.
MISCELLANEOUS
SCHEDULED• As used in connection with Performance, this refers to planned variations in quantities affecting
performance and to the resulting performance itself. For example, shaft horsepower must follow a planned
variation with altitude and air temperature, and airspeed must be varied with pressure altitude in order to
insure that the predicted rates of climb are obtained.
It should be clear that the word scheduled is not being used here to imply route scheduling.
U. S. STANDARD DAY: This refers to the atmospheric properties standard, published under the title: U. S.
Standard Atmosphere, 1962. This document was prepared under the sponsorship of the National Space ad
Aeronautics Administration, the United States Air Force, and the United States Weather Bureau. At altitudes
applicable to Model 680V, this standard is virtually identical to the older standard of the International Civil
Aviation Organization (ICAO).
ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEM: A statement that the aircraft environmental system is ON is intended to convey
only the information that horsepower is being extracted from the engine or engines. The term does not imply
the cabin is or is not in a pressurized condition.
All performance material in this Flight Manual is quoted with the environmental system ON, except when such
operation is irrelevant.
CABIN DEPRESSURIZED: Cabin.pressurization must not be used during takeoff or landing and the cabin con-
dition has been specified as depressurized in such cases. It is noted, however, that the environmental system
may be operated for air conditioning purposes as long as a depressurized condition is maintained. In those
cases where it is permissible for the cabin to be either pressurized or depressurized, no note of cabin condition
has been made because the condition may be selected as desired.
Figure 4-1 shows the maximum takeoff gross weight permitted by climb performance in the single-engine clean
climb condition. The limiting weight is a function of outside air temperature and field pressure altitude. In no
case is the takeoff gross weight to exceed the structural limiting gross weight of 9400 pounds.

PERFORMANCE
Figure 4-2 shows the variation of zero thrust stall speeds with angle of bank and gross weight. Stall speeds are
given for three aircraft conditions: takeoff, clean cruise, and landing. Figure 4-2 shows that the effect of bank
angle is to produce an increase in stall speeds.
Other primary variables controlling stall speeds are power and rate of entry into the stall. Decreasing gross
weight will result in lower stall speeds, while reducing power or entry rate will increase stall speeds. C. G.
position and trim speed are secondary variables, affecting stall speeds.

The autopilot may be overpowered by forces on control wheel or rudder pedals proportional to the amount of
overpower needed up to a maximum of:
Rudder -
35 lbs
Aileron -
12 lbs
Elevator -
15 lbs
Engine-Out Procedures
1. For any single-engine emergency occurring at other than automatic ILS coupler approaches, handle
the emergency and then trim aircraft rudder with autopilot still engaged. When autopilot is dis-
engaged, there win be a slight tendency of aircraft to bank into dead engine.
2. For engine failure during ILS approach with autopilot on, monitor heading and trim rudder manually
for ban center.
3. With one engine or generator inoperative, select continuous electrical services so that generator
output does not exceed current rating.
4. With the autopilot turn knob funy deflected, the airplane win bank approximately 30°. If the pilot
then overrides the autopilot to produce greater angles of bank, the autopilot win resist this action.
However, when a bank angle of approximately 85° is reached, the autopilot win abruptly assist in
trying to produce greater angles of bank. To avoid the possibility of this condition, the human
pilot should not override the autopilot in normal operation to produce increased angles of bank.

FLIGHT MANUAL Weight and Balance Instructions
LEVEUNG
a. The aircraft is approximately level when the struts are in static position. Lateral leveling is
accomplished by placing a spirit level ácross the seat tracks on the cabin floor forward of the
rear seat and dellating the tire or strut on the high side of the aircraft until the bubble in the
spirit level is centered.
b. Longitudinal leveling is accomplished by placing a spirit level on the center line on top of the
fuselage in a fore and aft position between stations 160. 8 and 178. 8. Inflating or deflating the
nose wheel tire or strut raises or lowers the nose of the aircraft until the bubble of the spirit
level is centered. The wing flaps must be in the up position.
MEASURING
Measurements are taken to locate the reactions during weighing by measuring 196.0 inches forward of
the wing leading edge. This locates the reference datum. Measurements can then be taken to the center
of the nose gear and main gear wheels.
FUEL DRAINING
Fuel can be drained from the tank by opening the sump drain valve located in the fuselage beneath the
right wing. Aircraft must be level when draining fuel.
After aircraft has been drained, 1. 6 gallons of fuel must be added to bring aircraft to the basic weigh-
ing condition.
NOTES: 1. g is the horizontal distance in inches from the datum to the center of gravity of an item.
The corrected empty weight of an aircraft includes all operating equipment that has a fixed
location and is actually in the aircraft. It includes the weight of the airframe, power plant,
required equipment, optional and special equipment, fixed ballast, hydraulic fluid, unusable
fuel, and undrainable oil.
(1) Determine the number of passengers and their location. Each seat is given a number in the figure
at the top of Page 2 of the Aircraft Weight and Balance Report (Form 118V). The respective pas-
senger weights and moments are listed in a table below the sketch. Passenger
.
weight is figured
at 170 lbs per person.
(2) Determine the amount of baggage to be carried, then refer to column under BAGGAGE for its
weight and moment.
(3) Determine the amount of fuel to be added, then refer to column under FUEL for its weight and
moment.
NOTE
The fuel weights in the fuel loading table are based on the specific
weight of JP-4 fuel at 600F which is 6. 5 lbs per ganon. See Aero
Commander Service Letter No. 170 for specific weights of fuels
other than JP-4.
(4) Add passenger, baggage, and appropriate fuel weights and moments to the LOADING SUB-TOTAL to
get TOTAL WEIGHT and MOMENT.
(5) Compare each of these TOTAL WEIGHTS to the nearest weight listed within the WEIGHT and MO-
MENT table on Page 2 of the Aircraft Weight and Balance Report (Form 118V). The TOTAL MO-
MENT must be within the aHowable range listed.
Baggage 125 32
Take the TOTAL WEIGHT, 7148 lbs, and check the WEIGHT and MOMENT table on Page 2 of the Aircraft Weight
and Balance Report (Form 118V) for nearest weight which is 7150 lbs. The 1490 TOTAL MOMENT is between
the Min. and Max. limits of this weight. This indicates that the aircraft is loaded within the allowable limits.
Baggage 125 32
Take the TOTAL WEIGHT, 6758 lbs, and check the WEIGHT and MOMENT table on Page 2 of the Aircraft Weight
and Balance Report (Form 118V) for nearest weight which is 6750 lbs. The 1398 TOTAL MOMENT is between
the Min. and Max. limits of this weight. This indicates that the aircraft is loaded within the allowable limits.
The corrected SUB-TOTAL weight and moment entered in the Aircraft Weight and Balance Report (Form 118V)
indicates the status of the aircraft as it left the factory. Major changes or alterations affecting weight and
balance are required by the FAA to be recorded in the Repair and Alteration Form ACA-337. The weight and
balance information from the Form ACA-337 should be entered in the LOADING SUB-TOTAL table on page 1 of
Aircraft Weight and Balance Report (Form 118V) and the LOADING SUB-TOTAL weight and moment totals
should then be corrected. It is the responsibility of the aircraft owner and the pilot to ensure that the aircraft
is loaded properly.
COMPLIANCE: AS REQUIRED.
PURPOSE: To indicate the fuels (by specification) and oils (by specification and brand name) which
must be used in order to validate the engine manufacturers warranty.
INSTRUCTIONS: Fuels meeting the requirements of the following Aviation Turbine Fuels: AiResearch
EMS 53100; ASTM designation ES2-74 and D1655-68T (Types Jet A, Jet A-1 and Jet B);
MIL-T-5624G(1)-(Grades JP-4 and JP-5); MIL-F-46005A (MR) (Types I and II); MIL-F -
5616-1(Grade JP-1); and British Specs D. Eng. R.D. 2482 Issue 2, 2486 Issue 2, and
2494 Issue 4 are approved for use to a maximum fuel temperature of 1100 F (43°C) and a
minimum fuel temperature of -65°F (-54°C). NATO equivalents approved. Aviation
gasoline MIL-G-5572D, Grade 80/87 may be used as an emergency fuel with limitations
of 1000 gallons per engine for each 100 hours of engine operation. The amount of aviation
gasoline used must be entered in the Engine Log Book. During cold temperature opera-
tion, do not operate engine on fuels with a kinematic viscosity more viscous than 12 centi-
stokes. Fuels not containing anti-icing inhibitors may have MIL-I-27686D or E Fuel Sys-
tem Inhibitor, or an equivalent inhibitor, added but not in eKcess of 0.15 percent by
volume. Fuels listed by brand names are for reference only. No specific brand is en-
dorsed by General Aviation Division, Rockwell International. Fuels other than those
listed are acceptable providing, the required fuel specifications and limitations as outlined
are met. •

PERFORMANCE
Figure 4-3 presents the maximum static shaft horsepower anowable prior to takeoff brake release. This shaft
horsepower must not be exceeded in the static (zero airspeed) condition. However, it must be reached in order
to obtain the takeoff distances shown in Figure 4-4. Shaft horsepower win increase as the aircraft is accele-
rated to lift-off speed without further adjustment of the power lever.
Takeoff distances shown in Figure 4-4 are the total of the ground run distances to reach the scheduled lift-off
speed and the air distances covered while cumbing out at the scheduled cumb-out speed to a height of 50-feet
above the takeoff surface. The distances are for dry, level, paved runways. AUowance must be made for actual
conditions which may differ.
To obtain the distances shown in Figure 4-4, use the fonowing procedure:
1. Obtain the static shaft horsepower allowed by Figure 4-3 prior to brake release.
NOTE
Do not exceed the EGT or SHP umit for takeoff power. Do not
maintain takeoff power for more than 5-minutes.
2. Release brakes and accelerate to lift-off speed. Lift-off and climb-out at the scheduled speed of

ALTITUDEPOSITION CORRECTION
Figure 4-16 or 4-17 presents the position correction for the altimeter system as a function of instrument cor-
rected pressure altitude and for three aircraft configurations: takeoff, clean cruise, and landing. The clean
cruise configuration applies to both twin and single-engine clean conditions. The landing configuration also in-
cludes the balked landing climb condition.
Position corrections arise because of the influence of various aircraft components, particularly the wing flap,
on the altimeter static pressure source. This influence causes the pressure sensed at the source (and measured
by the altimeter) to differ slightly from the true value.
The position corrections of Figure 4-16 or 4-17 are corrections to be added to the instrument corrected pressure
altitude. As used here, this means simply that the sign of the position correction is followed, whether positive
or negative.
Position corrections are in addition to, and completely separate from, altimeter instrument corrections. In-
strument corrections are caused by small mechanical defects in the instrument and must be obtained from cali-
brations of the individual altimeter being used.
1. Set the barometric scale (Kollsman Window) to 29. 92 inches of mercury, and read the indicated
pressure altitude directly from the face of the altimeter.
2. Apply the appropriate instrument correction to obtain instrument corrected pressure altitude (ICPA).
3. From Figure 4-16 or 4-17 obtain the position correction for the configuration and instrument cor-
rected pressure altitude involved.
4. Add the position correction to the instrument corrected pressure altitude to obtain the calibrated
pressure altitude.
If the instrument correction is not known, it will frequently be acceptable to omit it. The result is technically .
not pressure altitude, because of instrument error, but it will be acceptably close in most practical situations.

Position corrections arise because of the influence of various aircraft components, particularly the wing flap,
on the airspeed static pressure source. This influence causes the pressure sensed at the source (and measured
by the airspeed indicator) to differ slightly from the true value.
The position corrections of Figure 4-18 or 4-19 are corrections to be added to the instrument corrected air-
speed. As used here, this means simply that the sign of the position correction is followed, whether positive
or negative.
Position corrections are in addition to, and completely separate from, airspeed instrument corrections. In-
strument corrections are caused by small mechanical defects in the instrument and must be obtained from cali-
brations of the individual indicator being used.
1. Read the indicated airspeed (IAS) directly from the indicator face.
2. Apply the appropriate instrument correction to obtain instrument corrected airspeed (ICAS).
3. From Figure 4-18 or 4-19 obtain the position correction for the configuration and instrument cor-
rected airspeed involved.
4. Add the position correction to the ICAS.to obtain the calibrated airspeed.
If the instrument correction is not known, it may be acceptable to omit it. The result is technically not CAS,

PROPELLERDEICING SYSTEM (5890284)
. INTRODUCTION
When the propener deicing system is installed on the Model 680W Aero Commander, this Supplement
must be placed in the Airplane Flight Manual.
A neoprene ice guard which contains embedded electrical heating elements, is bonded to each propeller
blade. When the propener deice switch is placed in the ON position, an electronic timer alternately di-
rects 28 volts dc, in thirty-second intervals, to the outboard and inboard heating elements of the right
propeller blades. The timing sequence is then repeated for the left propener before returning to the
right propener.
SECTION I
LIMITATIONS
Ambient temperatures must be below 40°F for continuous operation of propeller deicing system.
Placard -
FLIGHT INTO KNOWN ICING CONDITIONS PROHIBITED.

WING AND EMPENNAGE DEICER SYSTEM-5890126 (PNEUMATIC)
INTRODUCTION
When the 5890126 Wing and Empennage Deicer System is installed on the Model 680V Aero Commander,
this Supplement must be placed in the Airplane Flight Manual.
The wing and empennage deicer system utilizes regulated engine bleed air for surface boot inflation and
deflat‡on. Normal inflation and deflation of the surface boots is automatically controlled by an electric
timer.
SECTION I
OPERATING LIMITATIONS
Intentional stalls are prohibited when the surface deicer system is in operation.
Placard -
DEICER TO BE OFF DURING TAKEOFF AND LANDING.
SECTION II
NORMAL PROCEDURES
The surface deicer system is controlled by the deicer switches located in the overhead control panel.
A regulated pressure gage, having a green arc, yellow arc, and an upper and lower red arc, indicates
regulated bleed air pressure, and denotes the operating condition of the pressure regulator. Normal
operat‡on of the wing and empennage deicer system is when bleed air pressure is within the green arc
of the pressure gage. Should the pressure gage indicate within the yellow arc (denoting deterioration of
pressure) during a flight, operation of the deicer system may be continued; however, the pressure regu-
lator must be replaced prior to subsequent flight. The lower red are indicates insufficient bleed air
pressure for proper deicer operation. The upper scale red arc indicates excessive bleed air pressure.
Deicer operation is NOT PERMITTED when bleed air pressure is excessive.
Before Taxiing
After Takeoff
MOTE
Single cycle operation provides a pulse to the wing boots which
is followed by a pulse to the empennage boots. After completion
of a single cycle the pilot may re-energize the single cycle ope-
ration at his discretion.
Override Operation
Actuation of the wing/empennage deicer switch provides instantaneous operation of the surface deicer
system or permits override of the normal system in the event the normal system timer fails.
MOTE
Override operation may be utilized at the pilots discretion regard-
less of the position of the normal surface control switch.
