DA42 NG Checklist
 Checklist for Diamond DA42 NG
Comments explaining Edition # 17.1
Edition #: 17.2 NG Edition date: 15.03.2016
Normal Procedures:
Please observe:
Page 7:
The file you are receiving hereby combines all three sections of the checklist: Normal Short field flap setting added in Before Take Off Check
Checklist, Emergency Checklist and Abnormal Checklist.
Emergency Procedures:
All pages of a new edition will have the same new “edition #” and “edition date”, even if
only one page was amended and all other pages still have the same, unchanged content. Page 13:
“De Icing” emergency procedures revised.
Therefore the “List of Effective Pages” (LEP) is provided. It is here where you can see
whether a particular page was amended. Pages which have been amended by a new Abnormal Procedures
edition will be marked yellow. For all other pages you will see which original “edition #”
(and of course any higher “edition #”) is still valid. Page 15:
ECU FAIL procedures revised again (“clearing procedure in flight” re-introduced).
Note:
The system of assigning “Edition #” is as follows:
x if the revision affects all types, a new edition # (without a decimal figure) will be Comments explaining Edition # 17.2
assigned to all of the checklists
x if the revision does not affect all types, the affected checklists will get subsequent Normal Procedures:
“decimal figures” until a major revision affecting all checklists is issued.
