Checklist Usage
Normal Procedures
Tasks are executed in one of two ways:
• as a sequence that uses the layout of the cockpit
controls and indicators as cues (i.e., “flow pattern”)
• as a sequence of tasks organized by event rather than
panel location (e.g., After Takeoff, Gear – RETRACT,
Yaw Damper – ENGAGE).
Placing items in a flow pattern or series provides organization
and serves as a memory aid.
A challenge-response review of the checklist follows execution
of the tasks; the PM calls the item, and the appropriate pilot
responds by verifying its condition (e.g., Engine Anti-Ice
(challenge) – ON (response).
Two elements are inherent in execution of normal procedures:
• use of either the cockpit layout or event cues to prompt
correct switch and/or control positions
• use of normal checklist as “done” lists.
Normal Procedures
Through-Flight Procedures
(Both Engines Shut Down)
Normal preflight procedures (all checklist items) must be
accomplished prior to takeoff at the original departure point of a
flight. At each intermediate stop of flight, where both engines
are shut down, the Through-Flight Checklist may be used for
preflight provided certain criteria are met during a stop. In the
following section, procedures marked with this symbol (Á)
denote through-flight checklist items. When permitted,
accomplishment of all through-flight Checklist items fulfills a
minimum preflight requirement.
The Through-Flight Checklist may be used following an
intermediate stop with both engines shutdown provided the fol-
lowing criteria have been satisfied during that stop:
• There has been no change in flight crew personnel.
• No maintenance has been performed on the aircraft.
Routine line servicing is not considered maintenance.
• No more than three (3) hours have elapsed between
engine shutdown and engine start.
• Extreme weather conditions (heavy precipitation, ice,
snow, extreme cold, etc.) have not occurred which would
change the preflight status of the aircraft.
For intermediate stops with one or no engine shut down, com-
pletion of the Quick Turnaround Procedure (2B-53) in this sec-
tion provides the minimum preflight requirements.

Before Taxi
Next, complete a flow pattern using exactly the same path used
with Before Starting Engines checklist. The objective of the
second flow pattern is to turn on the aircraft equipment in prep-
aration for flight and to test each system or component that was
not tested previously.
Beginning at the anti-ice switch panel, the flow progresses
across the lower switch panel, from left to right, to the right
audio panel. The right, center, and left instrument panels are
checked up to the annunciator and T/R control panel. Lastly,
the pedestal is checked from the thrust lever quadrant down to
the bottom.
All the equipment is turned on, and systems are tested as
encountered in the flow pattern. When completed, all aircraft
systems have been checked and set for the taxi phase of flight
and nearly all tests have been completed.
The PF calls for and the crew completes the Before Taxi check-
list. Very little is done while reading the checklist because it
was accomplished during the flow.

After Takeoff
The After Takeoff checklist is not accomplished until the aircraft
is safely airborne and the crew has had time to clear the area
for traffic. It is accomplished after the aircraft is at least 1,500 ft
AGL (if workload permits). Should the aircraft remain within the
airport traffic area, complete the After Takeoff checklist after
establishing the aircraft in level flight. Each pilot should advise
the other when the checklist is begun so that visual traffic sepa-
ration is maintained.
After safely airborne, the PF calls for gear retraction and yaw
damper engagement. At the appropriate speed, the PF calls for
flap retraction and for the After Takeoff checklist.

Mooring
If extended parking plans or impending weather necessitates
mooring the aircraft, 7/16-inch polypropylene ropes (or equiva-
lent) are attached to the nose gear and the main gear struts
(Figure 2B-1). This procedure requires that tie-down eyelets
be set into the apron; there is no procedure for mooring at
unprepared facilities.

Towing/Taxiing
On hard surfaces, the aircraft can be towed or pushed back-
wards using a tow bar attached to the nose wheel. The turning
angle of the nose wheel with tow bar is 90°, either side of cen-
ter. When the aircraft is not on a hard surface, (such as sand,
soft ground, or mud), cables or ropes must be attached to each
main gear for towing; in such an event, steering is accom-
plished with the rudder pedals.
For taxi operations, directional control is accomplished utilizing
the nosewheel steering system. The maximum turning radius
for the nosewheel steering system is 45° either side of center.
Taxiing
During taxi, the aircraft is controlled via nosewheel steering,
brakes, and selected engine thrust through rudder pedal.
Taxiing can be accomplished with one or both engines oper-
ating.
Storage
Aircraft storage practices vary depending upon the length of
the storage period. There are, however, several general pol-
icies to observe. If the aircraft is to be stored outside, adhere
to parking and mooring requirements. All protective covers
should be installed. Do not set the parking brake. In all other
cases, the following are generally performed:
Parking (0 to 7 Days)
If the engines are in a sheltered environment (i.e., not exposed
to excessive humidity or temperature changes), no action need
be taken beyond installing protective covers.

Taxi
If the airport surfaces are sandy or dust covered, avoid the
exhaust wake and propwash of other airplanes.
Takeoff
Ensure takeoff performance is adequate for the conditions and
runway length.
Starting
Use of a GPU for an engine start is recommended at tempera-
tures of 32°F (0°C) or below. Ensure the GPU is regulated to
28V DC and has an amperage rating between 500 and 1,100
amps.
SPR can be used for starts at temperatures below 0°F (-17°C).
During a start using SPR, release the SPR switch at 300-400°C
turbine temperature (ITT). Do no energize SPR at any time
other than engine start.
Engine fan acceleration is much slower than normal and the
ITT increases rapidly due to the slower engine spool up. If fan
speed (N1) does not rise with turbine speed (N2) or stops dur-
ing the start attempt, or if ITT is rising rapidly and appears likely
to exceed the start limit, abort the start.
Oil pressure can be expected to exceed the maximum allow-
able transients. Do not exceed idle power with oil temperature
below 30°C. However, if the outside temperature prevents the
oil temperature from reaching 30°C, idle power may be
exceeded as required to further warm the oil to normal operat-
ing limits prior to takeoff.
If the outside temperature is below -13°C, operate the engines
for at least 3 minutes to bring the hydraulic system up to normal
operating temperature prior to takeoff.
Taxi
If Airport Surfaces Are Contaminated with Ice, Wet Snow or
Slush:
Engines. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . START BOTH FOR TAXI
Use the brakes to build up the temperature of the disks to
prevent them from freezing when the aircraft is stopped.
Allow greater stopping distances on the ramp and taxiways.
Anti-Ice Systems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . USE AS REQUIRED
Flaps . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . RETRACTED UNTIL REACHING
THE RUNWAY
Avoid the exhaust wake or propwash of other aircraft and be
alert for loose ice or crusted snow that can be ingested into
the engines.
Many pilots use thrust reversers to aid directional control
while taxiing on slick surfaces. This is very risky and can
easily cause foreign object damage to the engine.
Slick surfaces can cause nosewheel steering to be mar-
ginal. Differential braking can be used to aid directional con-
trol. However, be careful not to make turns too sharp and
damage the steering system. Also, be alert for slick spots
causing the nose wheel to spin, possibly coming 180° out of
alignment with the direction of travel.
Takeoff
Check takeoff distances carefully; the distances in the Perfor-
mance section do not account for runway contamination for
takeoff.
After Takeoff
After takeoff, accelerate to 200 KIAS and leave the gear
extended to allow slush and wet snow to blow and spin off.
Retract the gear before exceeding 200 KIAS and turn anti-skid
switch off.
Before Landing
If taxi or takeoff was accomplished on an ice, slush or snow
covered runway, use the following procedure to crack any ice
that may have formed between the brake disks and wheels.

Multiply the dry runway landing distance by 1.4 for a wet
runway; 1.7 for freezing runway.
If operating under FAR 135, multiply the 135 landing dis-
tance by 1.15 for a wet runway. For an icy runway, multiply
the FAR 91 distance by 1.7 and divide the result by 0.6 to
obtain the factored 135 distance.

Drag chute may be used in place of reversers.
The nosewheel on the runway improves directional control.
Spoilers should be deployed immediately after touchdown.
The anti-skid system automatically controls the brakes to
prevent skids and provides maximum braking for the runway
condition. Consider the use of the drag chute, if installed.
High reverse thrust can result in directional control difficul-
ties. Be prepared to reduce power to idle reverse if direc-
tional control is adversely affected. If snow or ice is present
while applying moderate to heavy braking, do not use nose-
wheel steering above 10 knots ground speed.
Crosswind Consideration
On a slick runway, directional control can become a problem in
crosswinds much lower than the maximum demonstrated. The
thrust reversers may be preferable to the drag chute. Nose-
wheel steering is more effective if forward control pressure is
applied; however, the brakes are more effective if the controls
are held more aft.
Deicing
When necessary, use the following methods to deice the air-
craft:
Q
placing the aircraft in a warm hangar until the ice melts
Q mechanically brushing the snow or ice off with brooms,
brushes, or other means
Q
applying a heated water/glycol solution (one-step proce-
dure)
Q applying heated water followed by an undiluted glycol-
based fluid (two-step procedure).
Deicing Fluids
Two types of anti-icing/deicing fluids are in commercial use:
SAE/ISO Types I and II/IV. Type I fluids are used generally in
North America. Type II/IV fluids, also referred to as AEA Type
II/IV, are used generally in Europe.
Type I fluids are unthickened glycol-based fluids that are usu-
ally diluted with water and applied hot; they provide limited
holdover time.
Type II/IV fluids are thickened glycol-based fluids that are usu-
ally applied cold on a deiced aircraft; they provide longer hold-
over times than Type I fluids.
Many factors influence snow, ice, and frost accumulation and
the effectiveness of deicing fluids. These factors include:
Q ambient temperature and aircraft surface temperature
Q
relative humidity, precipitation type, and rate
Q
wind velocity and direction
Q operation on snow, slush, or wet surfaces
Q operation near other aircraft, equipment, and buildings
Q
presence of deicing fluid and its type, dilution strength,
and application method.
Deicing Procedures
One-step deicing involves spraying the aircraft with a heated,
diluted deicing/anti-icing fluid to remove ice, snow, or frost. The
fluid coating then provides limited protection from further accu-
mulation.
Two-step deicing involves spraying the aircraft with hot water
or a hot water/deicing fluid mixture to remove any ice, snow, or
frost accumulation followed immediately by treatment with anti-
icing fluid (usually Type II/IV FPD fluid).
Deice the aircraft from top to bottom. Avoid flushing snow, ice,
or frost onto treated areas. Start the deicing process by treating
the horizontal stabilizer followed by the vertical stabilizer. Con-
tinue by treating the fuselage top and sides. Finally, apply deic-
ing fluid to the wings.
Deicing fluid should not be applied to:
Q
pitot/static tubes, static ports, temperature probes, AOA
vanes, or TAT probe
Q gaps between control surfaces and airfoil
Q cockpit windows
Q
passenger windows
Q air and engine inlets and exhausts
Q vents and drains
Q
wing and control surface trailing edges
Q brakes

No determination has been made by the FAAthat the noise levels in the AFM
are or should be acceptable or unacceptable for operation at, into, or out of
any airport. These noise values are stated for reference conditions of stan-
dard atmospheric pressure at sea level, 77°F (25°C) ambient temperature,
70% relative humidity, and zero wind.
Takeoff and sideline noise levels were obtained at the maximum takeoff
weight listed, V2 + 10 kts climb speed, anti-ice system off, and all engine
takeoff with takeoff thrust setting. Thrust cutback was not required for compli-
ance. Flap setting was 8° on aircraft
Thrust cutback noise levels were obtained by initiating cutback at approxi-
mately 2,800 ft above runway for 18,000 lb (8,165 kg) takeoff weight and
approximately 2,750 ft for 18,300 (8,300 kg) takeoff weight. Thrust cutback
power settings were 85.5% N1 and 85.9% N1 respectively.
Landing approach noise levels were established on a 3° glideslope, gear
down, maximum landing weight listed, approach speed of 1.3 VS + 10 kts,
and 40° flaps. No special noise abatement procedures were used.

Avionics
Pitot/Static System Pitot/Static System
(without FC-530 Autopilot) (withFC-530 Autopilot)
Pitot/Static System
(Typical RVSM)
Pitot/Static System
On aircraft with an FC-200 autopilot, an electrically heated
pitot probe on the left and right nose supplies pitot pressure to
the flight instruments and airspeed warning systems. The left
pitot probe only supplies the pilot’s airspeed indicator. The right
pitot probe supplies the copilot’s airspeed indicator, Mach trim,
Mach warning and overspeed, switches, and air data sensor.
The left forward and right center static ports supply the pilot’s
altimeter and airspeed indicator. A selectable alternate static
source supplies these instruments if the normal static source
fails.
The left aft and right forward static ports supply the copilot’s
altimeter, airspeed indicator, and vertical speed indicator (VSI).
These static sources also supply the Mach trim, Mach warning
and overspeed warning, altitude pressure, and airspeed
switches.
The unheated right aft static port and a static port in the nose
compartment supply the pressurization module assembly.
Two shoulder static ports forward of the windshield supply
static pressure to autopilot air data sensor.
On aircraft with a typical RVSM1 FC-530 autopilot, an elec-
trically heated pitot/static probe on the left and right nose sup-
plies pitot and static pressure to the pilot’s and copilot’s pitot/
static systems. The left pitot/static probe supplies the pilot’s air-
speed indicator. The right pitot/static probe supplies the copi-
lot’s airspeed indicator, air data unit (ADU), and the 0.74 Mach
switch.
Additional Instrumentation
Airspeed/Mach Indicator
Pitot/static inputs operate the pilot’s and copilot’s identical air-
speed indicators. The instruments utilize a single rotating nee-
dle and dual scales for accurate Mach and airspeed indication.
The indicator face consists of a circular airspeed scale reading
0 to 400 kts, a movable circular Mach scale reading 0.4 to 0.9
Mach, an airspeed/Mach pointer, and a maximum allowable
marker (barber pole).
On S/N 35-506 and subsequent; 36-054 and subsequent; or
aircraft with AAK 83-2, the airspeed/Mach indicators also con-
tain airspeed and altitude switches used by the stick puller, stall
warning system, and overspeed warning system.
Altimeter
FC-200 autopilot only without Rosemont probe: the pilot’s
encoding altimeter system consists of an encoding altimeter, an
altitude alerter, and a static defect correction (SDC) module.
The pilot’s encoding altimeter is a servo-driven counter/pointer
display that follows an input from the SDC module when in Nor-
mal mode. When in Standby mode, the altimeter reverts to an
uncorrected servo-driven altimeter.
The SDC module measures pitot and static pressures and pro-
vides static pressure correction for the pilot’s encoding altime-
ter.
The copilot's altimeter is a conventional, barometric (servo-
driven) indicator that uses static pressure to indicate aircraft
altitude.
Clock
The Learjet 35/36 has a standard eight-day clock with a 12-
hour dial on the left panel.
As an option, a Davtron 811B multifunctional digital clock can
be installed on the right panel.
Magnetic Compass
A standard liquid-filled magnetic compass is on the windshield
center post.
Communications
VHF Communication Transceivers
The Learjet 35/36 has dual Collins VHF-20 or Triple Wulfsberg
WT-200 transceivers in the nose compartment; their control
heads are in the central instrument panel. The Collins VHF-20A
and Wulfsberg WT-200 are 700-channel VHF receiver-trans-
mitters with a frequency range of 118.000 to 135.975 MHZ in
25 kHz steps. The Collins VHF-20B has an extended range of
118,000 to 151.975 MHZ in 25 kHz steps.
HF Communication Receiver
The Learjet may have a single Collins HF-220 HF transceiver in
the nose compartment and a CTL-220 control head on the cen-
tral pedestal or a single Collins 718-U-5 HF transceiver. The
HF-220 system covers the 2.0 to 22.9999 MHZ frequency
range with single-sideband (SSB), AM, and split-channel,
reduced-carrier telephone modes.
Radio Telephone
A Wulfsberg Flitephone III C radio telephone allows pilots and
passengers to communicate with the ground through the public
telephone system. It also operates as an intercom for cockpit to
cabin communications.
Navigation
The aircraft navigation system includes components and sys-
tems that provide attitude, altitude, direction, speed, flight guid-
ance, and en route navigational information.
Autopilot
Available autopilot systems on the Learjet 35/36 aircraft include
the J.E.T. 200 or J.E.T. 530. The autopilot provides automatic
control and stabilization of the aircraft about the pitch and roll
axes. The mode of operation includes the ability to automati-
cally maintain desired altitude, pitch attitude or heading, and to
automatically capture and track localizer, glideslope, and VOR
signals.
The autopilot can be physically over-powered by the flight
crew; however, the forces can be quite high.
Aircraft with FC-200: Depressing the wheel master switch dis-
engages the autopilot and yaw damper, and interrupts the pri-
mary pitch trim.
Aircraft with FC-530: Depressing the wheel master switch dis-
engages the autopilot and yaw damper, and interrupts the pri-
mary and secondary pitch trim, stick pusher, puller, and nudger.
The autopilot is integrated with the flight director to automati-
cally control and direct aircraft flight.
Flight Director
The flight director system consists of:
Q Collins FD-108 Integrated Flight System
Q Collins ADI-85A Attitude Director Indicator
Q Collins HSI-85 Horizontal Situation Indicator
Q flight guidance control panel.
These components and information from navigation and
marker beacon receivers, the radio altimeter, and distance
measuring equipment provide an easily read display of aircraft
attitude, navigational situation, and steering commands. Steer-
ing commands enable the pilot to capture and fly selected
heading, radio courses, and an ILS down to decision altitude.
Weather Radar
Standard equipment for the Learjet 35/36 is the RCA Primus 3
00S L weather radar. The RCA Primus 400SL color radar is
available as an option. The digital radar indicator is on the cen-
ter instrument panel.
The Primus 300SL and 400SL systems consist of a digital
radar indicator, a transceiver operating in the X band, and an
antenna radiator unit.
Angle-of-Attack Indicators
The angle-of-attack indicators take signals from the stall warn-
ing computer and translate them into a visual indication. The
indicator face is divided into green (safe), yellow (caution/
shaker), and red (danger/pusher) segments.
Directional Gyros
The directional gyros are in shock-mounted racks in the nose
compartment. They provide a full 360° of heading information.
The directional gyros provide inputs to the RMI, autopilot, HSIs,
and flight directors.
Vertical Gyros
Two JET VG-206D vertical gyros in the nose compartment pro-
vide 360° of roll information and ±85° of pitch information to the
attitude and flight director indicators.
Radio Altimeter
A single radio altimeter on the pilot’s panel provides a precise
indication of altitude from zero to 2,500 ft. The system consists
of an indicator, transceiver, and dual antennas. Continuous alti-
tude output signals are provided to the pilot’s and copilot’s flight
director indicator and the radio altimeter.
TCAS
Some Learjet 35/36 aircraft have a Traffic Alert and Collision
Avoidance System (TCAS) installed. The TCAS monitors the
airspace around its ownaircraft by interrogating “intruder” tran-
sponders in a radius of approximately 40nm. The TCAS utilizes
this information to provide traffic alerts and resolution adviso-
ries to the pilot.

Q 28V external power system. Electrical buses distribute
power from these sources to the various systems requir-
ing DC power. Thermal circuit breakers between the bus
and the using system protect the aircraft electrical sys-
tem and equipment from electrical faults.
On aircraft 35-002 to 35-201, 35-205 and 36-002 to 36-040
without AMK 78-13, the DC buses include:
Q Battery Charging bus
Q Left and Right Battery buses
Q Left and Right Main Power buses
Q Left and Right Main buses
Q Left and Right Generator buses
Q Left and Right Essential buses.
On aircraft 35-202 to 35-204, 35-206 and subsequent, 36-
041 and subsequent, and prior aircraft with AMK 78-13, the
DC buses include:

Q Left and Right Essential B buses.
Generators
After engine start, placing a starter/generator switch in the GEN
position energizes the generator circuit relay and extinguishes
the GEN light. Energization of the relay completes a circuit to
energize the respective DC regulator power and positive sense
relay, Freon compressor relay, and a circuit for the voltage reg-
ulator equalizer.
On S/N 35-083 and subsequent, 36-021 and subsequent,
and earlier aircraft with AMK 76-6A, placing a starter/genera-
tor switch in the GEN position energizes a circuit to energize
the DC regulator power and positive sense relay, parallel 28V
DC circuit, regulator power, and the Freon compressor.
When both generators come on-line, the voltage regulator
equalizer circuit energizes. Both voltage regulators then work
together to regulate their generator’s output. Each adjusts its
generator field until a balanced condition exists between the
generators. If both generator ammeters are within 25A, both
generators are operating in parallel.
If generator output exceeds 31 ± 0.5V, the voltage regulator
trips the generator off-line through the overvoltage relay and
the respective GEN light illuminates. After a generator overvolt-
age, holding then releasing the generator RESET switch resets
the generator circuit. The generator switch must be in the GEN
position for the reset to work.
The generator also goes off-line if an undervoltage condition
occurs and the respective GEN light illuminates.
Batteries
With the BAT 1 and BAT 2 switches in the on position, the bat-
tery relays close to direct battery power to the Battery Charging
bus. From the Battery Charging bus, power flows to the rest of
the electrical system through current limiters.
Ni-cad battery installations have a temperature monitoring sys-
tem consisting of BAT 140 and BAT 160 annunciators and a
battery temperature gage. If battery temperature reaches
140×F ( 6 0×C), the amber BAT 140 annunciator illuminates. If
battery temperature continues rising to 160×F (71×C), the red
BAT 160 annunciator illuminates.
Emergency Battery
Single or dual emergency ni-cad or lead-acid battery packs
provide 24V and 5V DC power for essential equipment (i.e.,
emergency gyro, lighting, etc). Depending on the module
installed, the battery pack’s module provides 24V DC, 115V
AC, and 26V AC power (DC to AC inverter module) or 24V and
5V DC (DC to DC converter module). The module used
depends on the electrical requirements of the equipment
requiring emergency power.
With the EMER PWR BAT switch(es) in the STBY position,
only the emergency gyro receives power. If there is a power
failure, placing the EMER PWR BAT switch(es) in the on posi-
tion supplies power to the emergency gyro, to landing gear
control and indication, and to flap control. Normally, with a fully
charged battery, emergency power is available for approxi-
mately 30 minutes.
AC System
Two 1,000VA static inverters (primary and secondary) supply
115V AC, 400 Hz power to the Left and Right AC buses. An
auxiliary 1,000VA inverter (if installed) supplies 115V AC, 400
Hz power if one of the primary inverters fails.
Autotransformers, powered by the Left and Right AC buses,
supply 26V AC power for avionics equipment, the oil pressure
gages, and the anti-skid system.
With the Left and Right Generator buses powered, placing the
INVERTER PRI and INVERTER SEC switches in the ON posi-
tion energizes the primary and secondary inverters’power
relays through overload sensors. After the power relays close,
28V DC from Left and Right Generator buses power the pri-
mary and secondary inverters. Inverter output then flows
through the inverter paralleling control box to the Left and Right
AC buses.
With both inverters operating, the inverter paralleling control
box equalizes the loads and frequency balance between the
two inverters.
If an overload condition occurs, the associated inverter’s over-
load sensor circuit breaker opens to de-energize the power
relay. When the power relay opens, the inverter loses its 28V
DC power input. Resetting the circuit breaker restores DC input
to the inverter by closing the power relay.
On aircraft with the optional auxiliary inverter installed, if the pri-
mary or secondary inverter fails (PRI INV or SEC INV annunci-
ator illuminated), placing the auxiliary inverter switch in the ON
position energizes the auxiliary inverter’s power relay. The
relay closes so that 28V DC from the Battery Charging bus
powers the auxiliary inverter. Placing the AUX INVERTER
switch in L BUS or R BUS position directs 115V AC from the
auxiliary inverter to the respective AC bus.
External Power
With a ground power unit (GPU) connected to the external
power receptacle, placing either BAT switch in the on position
closes the external power control relay. External power ener-
gizes the external power relay through the external power over-
voltage cutout circuit; power then flows to the Battery bus.
If an overvoltage condition occurs and GPU voltage exceeds
approximately 33V, the cutout circuit energizes the overvoltage
cutout relay. The cutout relay closes and disconnects external
power from the aircraft by opening the external power relay.
On S/N 35-618 and subsequent, 36-056 and subsequent,
and previous aircraft with AMK 86-5, a five amp fuse pro-
vides additional external power protection. If an electrical fault
occurs, the fuse opens and causes the external power control
relay to open. When the control relay opens, the external power
relay opens to disconnect external power from the aircraft.

switches on the copilot’s lower panel control the system; two
red BLEED AIR annunciators on the glareshield monitor sys-
tem operation.
On S/Ns 35-002 to 35-106, 35-108 thru 35-112, and 36-002 to
36-022 (i.e., 450 Pneumatic System); low pressure (LP) and
high pressure (HP) bleed air is regulated by the bleed air shut-
off and pressure regulator valve for use by:
! nacelle inlet anti-ice
! cabin air conditioning and pressurization
! windshield anti-ice
! wing leading edge anti-ice
! stabilizer leading edge anti-ice
! Aeronca TFE731 thrust reversers (if installed).
On S/N 35-107, 113 and subsequent; 36-032 and subse-
quent (i.e., 510 Pneumatic System); the pneumatic system
also provides bleed air for alcohol anti-ice, temperature control,
and the emergency pressurization valves operation.
Pressurization System
Conditioned air entering the cabin through the air distribution
ducts pressurizes the cabin. Cabin pressurization is then con-
trolled and limited by exhausting the air through the cabin air
exhaust and safety valve.
Emergency Pressurization
On S/N 35-002 to 106, 108 to 112; 36-002 to 031, windshield
defog air can be routed to the cabin for emergency pressuriza-
tion.
Pushing the IN NORMAL/OUT DEFOG knob in, setting the
windshield heat switch to AUTO, and moving the cabin air
switch to OFF routes windshield defog bleed air into the cabin.
If automatic pressurization fails to maintain cabin altitude, the
outflow valve is controlled by using the manual UP/DN switch.
Pressurization System
Fire Protection
The fire protection system is composed of a detection system
and an extinguishing system. The detection system gives a
visual warning in the cockpit if it senses an overheat condition
or a fire in either nacelle. The engine fire extinguishing system
includes two independent fire bottles; these can be discharged
to either nacelle, or one bottle can be discharged to each
nacelle.
A portable fire extinguisher is stowed inside the aircraft.
Fire Detection
Three sensing elements connected to a detection unit monitor
temperature around the engine accessory gearbox, firewall,
and tailcone areas.
At normal operating temperatures, the resistance of the sens-
ing elements is high and current does not flow across the sens-
ing element’s core. If the temperature in the accessory gearbox
or firewall area reaches 410×F (210×C) or 890×F (477×C) in
the tailcone area, resistance of the affected sensing element
decreases until current flows across its core. Current flow then
triggers the detection unit to illuminate the associated FIRE
PULLor ENG FIRE PULL T-handle. Illumination of the T-handle
also triggers the Master Warning lights.
Pulling an illuminated FIRE PULL or ENG FIRE PULL T-handle
closes the engine’s main fuel, hydraulic, and bleed air shutoff
valves. It also illuminates the fire extinguisher bottle ARMED
lights above the T-handle.
Fire Extinguishing
Two dual-head single-shot fire extinguisher bottles contain
Halon 1301 (bromotrifluoromethane) pressurized to 600 ±75
PSI at 70×F (21×C) with nitrogen. Each bottle has a thermal
relief valve and a pressure gage.
Pressing an illuminated ARMED switchlight supplies 28V DC
from the Left or Right Essential (Essential B) bus to the associ-
ated bottle’s squib. The squib detonates to break the bottle seal
and release fire extinguishing agent to the affected engine
nacelle. Bottle discharge blows out the yellow discharge indica-
tor disc on the left rear fuselage. After bottle discharge, the
selected ARMED switchlight extinguishes.
If fire warnings persist, pressing the other illuminated ARMED
switchlight discharges the second fire extinguisher bottle into
the same engine.
Thermal Relief
If bottle temperature reaches 217×F (102.8×C), a thermal dis-
charge valve opens to vent bottle contents to atmosphere,
thereby blowing out the red colored discharge indicator disc.

Flight Controls
The flight control system in the Learjet 35/36 is separated into
primary flight controls and secondary flight controls.
In addition to primary and secondary flight controls, stall warn-
ing, Mach trim, stick puller (i.e., overspeed), autopilot (AFCS),
and yaw damper systems also affect control of the aircraft.
Ailerons
Ailerons on the outboard trailing edge of each wing provide roll
control of the aircraft mechanically through the control wheel or
automatically by the autopilot roll servo.
The ailerons incorporate balance tabs to reduce the forces
required to position the control surface and an aileron-rudder
interconnect spring system to aid in coordination.
Full range of travel for the ailerons is 18×( ± 1×) up and (±2×)
down. An aileron’s effectiveness is augmented by spoilers that
move in conjunction with the ailerons (i.e., spoileron mode)
when the flaps are fully extended for landing.
Roll Trim
The aileron roll trim is actuated by a combination trim and trim
arming switch on each control wheel. Moving the trim switch
left or right while depressing the arm button electrically oper-
ates the trim tab attached to the trailing edge of the left aileron.
Atrim indicator on the center pedestal, labeled AIL TRIM,
shows position of the aileron trim tab in units left wing down
(LWD) or right wing down (RWD). The pilot’s trim switch has
authority over the copilot’s trim switch during any trim action.
Elevators
The elevators on the trailing edge of the horizontal stabilizer
provide pitch control of the aircraft mechanically through fore
and aft movement of the control column or automatically by the
autopilot pitch servo.
A closed loop cable assembly from the control column to the
tail section and push-pull tubes drive the elevators through a
range of 16×(+0×,-30’) up and 15×(±30’) down.
Pitch Trim
Pitch trim is accomplished by repositioning the horizontal stabi-
lizer electrically with a dual-motor stabilizer actuator. The pri-
mary motor is controlled by the primary pitch trim and the Mach
trim system, while the secondary motor is controlled by the sec-
ondary pitch trim switch or the autopilot. The primary and sec-
ondary pitch trim systems are selected with the pitch trim
selector switch on the center pedestal. The switch positions are
PRI/OFF/SEC.
Fore and aft movement of the trim switch on the control wheels
while depressing the ARM button provides nose-up or nose-
down movement of the stabilizer actuator. An indicator on the
center pedestal, labeled PITCH TRIM, shows the position of
horizontal stabilizer trim in degrees nose-up or nose-down or
the position of the horizontal stabilizer itself in degrees; on air-
craft (S/Ns 35-146 and subsequent; 36-036 and subse-
quent), the indicator has the T.O. TRIM position (5-7.6×)
markings. Depressing the wheel master switch stops the pri-
mary trim and disengages the autopilot and yaw damper.
Aircraft with the FC-530 autopilot have a two-speed primary
trim system. The primary trim operates at slow speed with the
flaps retracted and at high speed with the flaps extended
beyond 3×.
The trim-in-motion audio “clicker” sounds with all trim inputs
(i.e., horizontal stabilizer movement) when the flaps are
retracted above the 3× flap switch. Depressing the wheel mas-
ter switch stops or interrupts all pitch trim or servo inputs (i.e.,
primary and secondary trim, autopilot, stick pusher/puller).
Mach Trim
The Mach trim system provides automatic pitch trim compensa-
tion when the aircraft is operated at airspeeds in the range of
0.694 to 0.83 Mach.
The Mach trim computer is temporarily bypassed if the pilot
elects to manually trim the aircraft, and a synchronous standby
mode is maintained if the autopilot is engaged.
A MACH TRIM warning light indicates a system failure and acti
vates the 0.74 Mach warning horn switch when the autopilot is
not engaged.
Rudder
The rudder is mechanically positioned by cables connected
directly to a dual set of rudder pedals. Full range of motion is
30×(+2×,-1×) left and right of center. Rudder control is provided
manually by either set of interconnected rudder pedals or auto-
matic damping through the primary or secondary yaw damper
servos.
Rudder Trim
The rudder trim is accomplished by an electric motor-driven
trim tab on the rudder and controlled by the dual-segmented
trim-tab switch on the center pedestal. The switch is labeled
NOSE LEFT/ OFF/NOSE RIGHT; it consists of an upper and
lower half, and both halves must be turned simultaneously to
effect rudder trim tab movement.
The rudder trim indicator on the center pedestal shows the
position of the rudder in units of travel right or left.
Yaw Damper
The yaw damper provides automatic stabilization about the
yaw axis by controlling transient yaw motion with rudder move-
ment. A dual (primary and secondary) yaw damper system is
installed on the Learjet 35/36. Both must be operational and
one must be engaged for flight.
The yaw damper is engaged by depressing the PRI or SEC
engage (ENG) button and can be disengaged by depressing
the control wheel master switch, depressing the associated
OFF switch, or engaging the opposite yaw damper. Disengag-
ing the autopilot with the wheel master also disengages the
yaw damper. The yaw damper should be disengaged while
using rudder trim. Be sure to re-engage yaw damper after trim
is established.
On aircraft with FC-200, the yaw damper must be disengaged
for landing during the landing flare. On aircraft with FC-530,
the yaw damper disengages at touchdown through the squat
switch relay box during full flap landings.
Flaps
The single-slotted Fowler flaps are electrically controlled and
actuated by dual hydraulic actuators.
Full flap travel is from 0 to 40× ( + 5×, - 0×), and interconnecting
cables and pulleys synchronize flap movement (within 2× of
each other) throughout the range of flap travel. The standard
flap switch, labeled UP/OFF/DN, allows the pilot flap control to
any desired setting throughout their range of motion. After
attaining the desired flap setting, placing the switch in the cen-
ter (OFF) position, de-energizes the control valve, which cre-
ates a hydraulic lock holding the flaps in position. A flap
position indicator on the instrument panel provides a visual ref-
erence of flap position.
A pre-select flap control, installed on all FC-530 equipped air-
craft and some FC-200 aircraft, allows the pilot to position the
flaps at 8 or 20× without continuously holding the select switch
up or down. Additional flap control switches deenergize the flap
control valve when the flaps reach the pre-selected position.
Spoiler/Spoileron
The spoilers, on the upper side of each wing forward of the
flaps, are raised either symmetrically as spoilers (Spoiler
mode) or asymmetrically as augmentation to the up aileron for
improved lateral control when the flaps are extended beyond
25× (Spoileron mode).
Normal spoiler extension and retraction is accomplished by set-
ting the spoiler switch to EXT or RET.
The spoilers are hydraulically actuated and electrically con-
trolled by the spoiler switch on the center pedestal to the right
of the throttles. Spoilers have a maximum extension of 47× (-
7×, +0×) and have a maximum travel differential of 6×. A red
(FC-200) or amber (FC-530) SPOILER annunciator on the
glareshiel indicates spoiler extension.
In the event of a malfunction in the augmentation mode and/or
a mismatch of 6× between the aileron and spoileron, a monitor
circuit automatically disengages the augmentation system, illu-
minates the amber AUG AIL annunciator on the glareshield,
and causes the spoilers to slam down. When the AUG AIL
annunciator is on, the spoilers are inoperative in flight. On the
ground, a squat switch on the landing gear overrides the moni-
tor circuit and allows the spoilers to be operated. A reset switch
is provided to reset the computer in flight and for testing the
system on the ground.

Fuel System
S/Ns 35-508 and subsequent and
36-002 and subsequent
Fuel System
The fuel system is comprised of three subsystems:
! a fuel storage system that includes the integral wing
tanks, tip tanks and bladder fuselage tank; in addition, the
fuel vent system is considered part of the storage sys-
tem.
! a fuel distribution system that includes the pumps, valves
and plumbing required to move the fuel through the air-
craft to the engines; fuel filtration and jettison are part of
the distribution system.
! a fuel quantity indication system that consists of fuel indi-
cators and annunciators, and probes and sensors that
provide them with data.
Fuel Storage
Each tip tank holds approximately 175 U.S. gallons (approxi-
mately 1,200 lbs) or fuel (refer to Servicing). Baffles restrict fuel
movement to prevent fuel sloshing that might cause sudden
center-of-gravity shifts during maneuvering. Each tip tank also
has a fuel filler cap and an electrically operated fuel jettison
valve. A jet pump, supplied with motive flow fuel from the
engine-driven fuel pump, transfers fuel from the tip tank into the
wing tank.
Formed by the #1 and #7 wing spar, the wing tanks (i.e., main
fuel tanks) extend from the aircraft centerline bulkhead to the
wing tip rib. Each tank holds approximately 187 gallons
(approximately 1,254 lbs).
Wing ribs with one-way flapper valves and vent openings divide
the wing tanks into compartments. The flapper valves permit
fuel flow inward but restrict outward flow to prevent sudden
shifts in the aircraft’s lateral balance.
Fuel Distribution
There are two distribution systems: one for each engine. The
fuel supply to the engine always comes from its respective
main wing tank. Fuel distribution is managed by the fuel control
panel on the center pedestal.
Each wing tank has two pumps: a jet pump and a standby elec-
tric pump. The jet pump uses motive flow fuel from the
enginedriven fuel pump to draw fuel from the tip tank to the
wing tank.
The standby pump provides fuel pressure to the engine-driven
pump during start and provides pressure during crossflow and
fuselage fill operations. The standby pump is also a backup for
the jet pump should it fail. The engine-driven fuel pump suction
feeds from its respective tank below 25,000 ft altitude.
In the event of an engine fire, pulling the FIRE PULL or ENG-
FIRE PULL T-handle on the glareshield provides DC power to
close the firewall shutoff valve. Power is also provided to open
the valve when the handle is pushed in.
Control/Indicating System
The fuel control panel installed in the center pedestal provides
the pilot with control and management of the fuel system; lights
and annunciators are provided for verification of system opera-
tion. Nine fuel probes supply information to the fuel quantity
indicator through the six-position fuel quantity selector switch.
Fuel quantity is compensated for by fuel temperature and indi-
cates most accurately in the TOTAL position. A red LOW
FUELannunciator illuminates when a float switch senses the
fuel level in either wing is below 400 to 500 lbs.
A transfer and crossflow system provides movement of fuel
between the wing tanks and the fuselage tanks. A wing fuel
imbalance may be corrected by opening the crossflow valve
and turning on the standby pump in the heavy wing.
Operation
Placing the START-GEN switch to START energizes the
standby pump. This action moves fuel from the respective wing
tank through the fuel filter and firewall shutoff valve to the
enginedriven pump (refer to Powerplant chapter). When the
enginedriven fuel pump output pressure is sufficient, the
motive-flow valve opens and allows motive flow fuel to flow to
the jet pumps. The fuel computer turns off the standby pump at
45% N2 and the jet pump then provides fuel pressure for the
engine-driven fuel pump. If the fuel pressure to the associated
engine drops below 0.25 PSIG, a red FUEL PRESS annuncia-
tor illuminate.

Hydraulic System
Hydraulic fluid is supplied from a reservoir through supply lines
and shutoff valves to the engine-driven pumps and an auxiliary
pump.
The engine-driven hydraulic pumps provide fluid under pres-
sure through lines, check valves and a filter to the hydraulically
operated systems upon demand.
Systems using hydraulic pressure include:
Q
landing gear
Q spoilers (engine-driven only)
Q flaps
Q brakes
Q thrust reversers (Dee Howard TR4000, if installed).
Normal Operation
With the engines running, each engine-driven hydraulic pump
draws fluid from the pressurized reservoir through an electri-
cally operated firewall shutoff valve. Pulling the associated
FIRE PULL or ENG FIRE PULL handle electrically closes the
shutoff valve.
Regulated bleed air pressurizes the reservoir to approximately
17 PSI to ensure positive fluid flow to the pumps and prevent
pump cavitation. If reservoir pressure exceeds 20 PSI, a relief
valve opens to vent excess pressure. If negative pressure over
0.5 PSI exists in the reservoir, a vacuum relief valve opens to
vent the reservoir to atmosphere.
Each variable-volume constant-pressure engine-driven hydrau-
lic pump supplies fluid at a regulated pressure of 1,450 to 1,550
PSI to the systems through check valves and filters.
Engine Anti-Ice
With the NAC HEAT switches in the OFF position, 28V DC
fromthe Left and Right Main buses powers the normally open
engine anti-ice solenoid valves closed. Placing the switches in
the ON position de-energizes valves to the open position.
Hot bleed air flows through the open valves and enters the
nacelle inlet diffuser tubes. After warming the inlet, bleed air
exhausts overboard. A pressure switch in each engine bleed
air supply line closes when bleed air pressure reaches 2 PSI
and turns off the ENG ICE annunciators.
Placing the NAC HEAT switches in the on position also sup-
plies 28V DC from the Left and Right Main buses to the engine
Pt 2/ Tt 2 probes.
Pitot/Static Anti-Ice
With the BAT switches in the on position, 28V DC from the Left
and Right Essential buses powers the static port heating ele-
ments.
Placing the PITOT HEAT switches in the on position supplies
28V DC from the Left and Right Essential buses to the pitot
tube and stall warning vane heating elements and total temper-
ature probe (if installed). The PITOT HT annunciator(s) illumi-
nate if:
Q one or both PITOT HEAT switches are in the OFF posi-
tion
Q one or both pitot heat systems fail
Q
either pitot heat system fails (dual annunciator configura-
tion).
Windshield Anti-Ice
Windshield anti-ice operations can be controlled in either the
Automatic or Manual modes.
On S/N 35-002 to 081, 083 to 086 and 36-002 to 022 without
AMK 76-7, engine bleed air is directed through ducting and
control valves to external outlets forward of the windshield.
With the WSHLD HEAT ON/OFF switch in ON and the AUTO/
MAN switch in AUTO, hot bleed air from the bleed air manifold
flows through a fully open shutoff valve. It then continues
through the windshield overheat shutoff valve. In MAN, the
shutoff valve can be fixed at any desired setting by manipulat-
ing the WSHLD ON/OFF switch. Pulling the IN NORMAL/OUT
DEFOG knob positions the manual control valve to direct
engine bleed air to the external outlets or foot warmers.
S/N 35-082, 087 to 106, 108 to 112; 36-023 to 031; prior air-
craft with AMK 76-7, precooled engine bleed air is directed
through ducting and control valves to the external outlets for-
ward of the windshield. Operation of the system is the same as
earlier aircraft (see above description).
S/N 35-107,113 and subsequent and 36-032 and subse-
quent, precooled engine bleed air is directed through ducting
and control valves to the external outlets forward of the wind-
shield. Control is with a three position switch labeled ON/
HOLD/OFF. Holding the switch in the ON position drives a
motor-operated shutoff valve toward the fully open position,
allowing bleed air into the anti-ice heat exchanger, and illumi-
nates the green WSHLD HT light. Moving the switch to the
HOLD position stops the motor, and the valve stays in its last
position. Placing the switch to the OFF position drives the shut-
off valve to the fully closed position, and the WSHLD HT light
extinguishes.
Ice Detection
Ice detection is performed by monitoring the wing heat indica-
tor, horizontal stabilizer heat indicator, windshield ice detection
lights, and wing inspection lights (if installed).
Whenever the BAT switches are on, 28V DC from the Left and
Right Essential buses illuminates a small red light in each
inboard corner of the glareshield that shines upward through
the windshield. As ice accumulates on the windshield a small
red circle appears on the windshield above the light.

Landing Gear
Squat switches on the main landing gear actuate with weigh-
ton-wheels, completing a circuit that prevents the landing gear
selector valve from energizing to the up position. This ener-
gizes the squat switch relay panel which supplies an air/on
ground indication to the following:

Retraction
When the aircraft lifts off, the left and right squat switches actu-
ate to the airborne mode and allow the landing gear selector
valve to be energized to the retract mode when the gear select
switch is moved from the DN to the UP position. This begins
the retraction sequence by energizing the door control valve to
the down position.
Hydraulic pressure flowing through the door control valve
unlocks the main gear doors through the door uplock actuators
and drives the doors to the open position. This illuminates the
two red UNSAFE main gear lights. When the doors are fully
open, the door down switches energize the landing gear selec-
tor valve to the up position.
Through the landing gear selector valve, hydraulic pressure
flows to the nose and main landing gear actuators. The gear
actuators unlock, the green LOCKED DN lights extinguish, the
red UNSAFE nose gear light illuminates, and the landing gear
begin to retract. When all three retract completely, the gear up
switches actuate to energize the door control valve to the up
position. The main landing gear doors close; the door uplock
actuators lock the doors closed. The nose gear uplock and
main gear door uplock switches then extinguish the red
UNSAFE lights.
Extension
Placing the landing gear selector to the DN position energizes
the main gear door control valve to the down position. Hydrau-
lic pressure is directed to the door uplock actuators and door
actuators. When the doors unlock, the two main gear red
UNSAFE lights illuminate. Hydraulic pressure drives the main
gear doors to the open position. The door down switches then
actuate to energize the landing gear selector valve to the down
position.
The selector valve directs hydraulic pressure to power the nose
and main landing gear actuators. When the nose gear
unlatches, the red UNSAFE light for the nose gear illuminates.
The landing gear extends then locks. When the landing gear
locks, the the green LOCKED DN lights illuminate and the nose
gear UNSAFE light extinguishes. The door control valve ener-
gizes to the up position, the main landing gear doors close,
extinguishing the main gear UNSAFE lights.
Emergency Extension
If the hydraulic system fails or an electrical fault occurs in the
landing gear system, an emergency air bottle supplies pneu-
matic pressure to extend the landing gear. The landing gear
selector should be in the DN position to prevent inadvertent
gear retraction after emergency extension.
Depressing the emergency extension handle directs pressur-
ized nitrogen from the emergency air bottle to the nose gear
uplatch actuator, main gear door uplatch actuators, and the
nose and main gear actuators. Shuttle valves in the landing
gear hydraulic supply lines then shift to isolate the hydraulic
system from the pneumatic system. Pneumatic pressure drives
the landing gear to the down and locked position.
During emergency extension, the green LOCKED DN lights illu-
minate. The red main gear UNSAFE lights remain illuminated
because the main gear doors do not close after gear extension.
Nosewheel Steering
With the aircraft on the ground and the squat switch relay panel
energized, pressing the STEER LOCK switch energizes the
nosewheel steering system; the green STEER ON light illumi-
nates. Momentarily depressing either control wheel master
switch (i.e., red button) disengages the nosewheel steering.
Holding either master switch depressed engages the nose-
wheel steering; releasing the switch disengages the nosewheel
steering.
Rudder pedal movement, with the master switch depressed,
drives a rudder pedal sensor to initiate nosewheel steering.
The sensor then supplies an electrical signal proportional to
pedal displacement to the computer/amplifier. The computer/
amplifier, in turn, applies a clockwise or counterclockwise sig-
nal to the steering actuator. The steering actuator clutch then
engages; the actuator gear train moves the nosewheel in the
desired direction.
As groundspeed varies, wheel speed inputs from the anti-skid
system modifies nosewheel steering authority. At ground
speeds less than 10 kts, the system provides up to 45× of
travel left or right from neutral. At approximately 45 kts, steering
authority decreases to approximately 8× left or right from neu-
tral.
Normal Braking
Applying pressure against the toe brakes mechanically opens
the brake valves that direct hydraulic pressure to the brake
assemblies through the anti-skid valves, hydraulic fuses, and
shuttle valves. The brake assembly pistons extend to force the
rotating disks and stationary disk together. Braking pressure is
proportional to the effort applied through the toe brakes.
During braking with the ANTI-SKID switch in the ON position,
the output signal from each wheel transducer is compared by
the anti-skid control box. If one wheel transducer decelerates
faster than the other, a rate-of-change voltage is measured. If
this voltage exceeds a preset level as determined by the anti-
skid control box, a signal is sent to the respective pressure con-
trol valve to release braking pressure for that wheel. This pre-
vents a possible skid. When the wheel spins up and the rate-of-
change voltage falls below the predetermined level, the system
reapplies braking pressure.
If a fault occurs in any of the anti-skid system components, the
respective ANTI-SKID GEN light illuminates to indicate the affe
cted wheel(s).
Emergency Braking
If the normal braking fails, pull the emergency brake control
handle out of its locking detent and apply downward pressure
to activate the emergency brake system. As the handle is
pushed down, air flows from the emergency air bottle, through
the control valve, to the shuttle valves. The shuttle valves then
shift to isolate the pneumatic system from the hydraulic system
and pneumatic pressure applies the brakes. The anti-skid sys-
tem is inoperative during emergency braking operation. Raising
the handle releases pressure and the brakes release. Each
time the handle is raised, the nitrogen pressure is vented over-
board.
Parking Brake
Pulling the PARKING BRAKE handle out with the toe brakes
applied closes the mechanically operated parking brake valves.
Pressure trapped between the closed valves and the brake
assemblies applies the parking brake. During operation, the
antiskid disconnect switch opens to disable the anti-skid sys-
tem.

Oxygen System
A typical oxygen system installation consists of a single 38
cubic foot cylinder in the nose compartment or in the dorsal fin.
An optional long range system adds two 76 cubic foot cylinders
in the baggage compartment. There is also an optional installa-
tion that has a 38 cubic foot cylinder in the nose compartment
and a 38 cubic foot cylinder in the vertical stabilizer dorsal fin.
A fully serviced system should read between 1,550 and 1,850
PSI on the direct reading cockpit gage. If cylinder pressure
exceeds approximately 2,500 PSI, the oxygen cylinder pres-
sure relief valve opens to release cylinder contents overboard.
A contents discharge dislodges the green burst disc located on
the right side of the nose or right side of the dorsal fin. Mainte-
nance is required before flight if the disc is dislodged.
Distribution
Oxygen flows under pressure from the oxygen cylinder(s)
through the cylinder’s pressure regulator and shutoff valve. The
regulator reduces normal cylinder pressure to approximately 60
to 80 PSI before it reaches the crew and passenger oxygen
distribution systems.
After oxygen flows through the pressure regulator and shutoff
valve, it then flows directly to the pilot and co pilot mask outlets.
Oxygen flow to the passenger distribution system first flows
through a manually operated shutoff (PASS OXY) valve, alti-
tude controlled oxygen solenoid valve, and the manual bypass
(PASS MASK) valve. Placing the PASS OXY knob in the OFF
position isolates the passenger oxygen system from the oxy-
gen supply.
Crew Masks
Crew oxygen masks consist of various quick-donning, diluter-
demand oxygen masks. Regardless of the mask installed, each
allows the selection of oxygen diluted with cabin air or 100%
oxygen. In the normal position, the typical mask provides oxy-
gen diluted with cabin air depending on cabin altitude. As cabin
altitude increases, the mask regulator increases the oxygen
content until it provides 100% oxygen. In the 100% position, the
mask provides 100% on-demand oxygen, regardless of alti-
tude. In the emergency position, the mask regulator supplies
100% oxygen at positive pressure. Each mask incorporates a
microphone controlled by the OXY/MIC-ON/OFF switch on the
jack panel.
Passenger System
With the PASS OXY knob in the NORM position and the PASS
MASK knob in the AUTO position, oxygen does not flow to the
passenger oxygen masks at normal cabin altitudes.
If cabin altitude exceeds 14,000 ±750 ft, the aneroid switch
closes to supply 28V DC power to the oxygen solenoid valve.
The valve opens and oxygen flows at 60 to 80 PSI to the pas-
senger oxygen distribution system. The initial pressure surge to
the door actuator valves releases door latches that allow the
masks to fall and hang by their lanyards. Pulling on a lanyard
releases a pin and oxygen flows to the associated mask.
Placing the PASS MASK knob in the MAN position bypasses
the oxygen solenoid valve to supply oxygen to the passenger
oxygen masks regardless of cabin altitude. The masks drop
and oxygen is made available to the passengers.

Powerplant
Two Garrett TFE731-2-2B turbofan engines power the Learjet
35/36 aircraft. At sea level on a standard day, each engine pro-
duces 3,500 lbs of static thrust. The engine has a bypass ratio
of approximately 2.8 to 1.0. Each engine consists of:
Q
geared single-stage fan (N1)
Q four-stage axial flow low pressure compressor (N1)
Q single-stage centrifugal high pressure compressor (N2)
Q annular combustion chamber
Q
single-stage axial flow high pressure (HP) turbine (N2)
Q three-stage axial flow low pressure (LP) turbine (N1)
Ten chromel-alumel thermocouples extending into the gas path
between the HP and LP turbines measure the interstage tur-
bine temperature (ITT) and provide ITT data to the electronic
engine control (EEC) and the turbine temperature gauge.
Lubrication
The engine-driven oil pump’s pressure element draws from the
reservoir and provides it to the oil cooler under pressure
through a pressure regulator and filter. The pressure regulator
maintains oil pressure at approximately 42 PSI. The filter
includes a bypass valve that opens at 30 to 40 PSID across the
filter. Filter bypass is indicated by a red pop-out pin forward of
the filter housing on the engine.
After flowing through the filter, oil passes through the three sec-
tion air/oil cooler in the engine’s bypass duct. A temperature-
controlled bypass valve regulates oil temperature by controlling
oil flow through the cooler. At an oil temperature below 65°C
(149×F), the oil bypasses the cooler. As oil temperature
increases to 65×C, the bypass valve opens to route oil through
the coolers. If the air/oil cooler clogs, the spring-loaded bypass
valve opens to allow oil to bypass the air/oil cooler.
Ignition System
With the STA RT/GEN switch in STA RT, advancing the throttle
levers out of the cutoff position supplies 28V DC to the ignition
exciter box through the throttle quadrant switch. The ignition
exciter box operates and supplies 18,000 to 24,000 volts to fire
the two igniter plugs.
As the engine reaches idle speed, the EEC terminates ignition
at approximately 45% N2 RPM by opening the start relay.
Placing the AIR IGN switches in the on position supplies 28V
DC for continuous ignition system operation. During ignition
system operation, the light above the AIR IGN switch illumi-
nates to indicate power to the ignition system; the light does not
indicate system operation.
Engine Controls
The throttle levers are connected directly to the fuel control unit
by flexible cable. When the throttle is moved from CUTOFF to
IDLE, it mechanically opens the rotary shutoff valve in the fuel
control unit. The engine is also shut down in the same manner
by moving the throttle lever from IDLE to CUTOFF. With the
fuel computer failed or in manual mode, movement of the throt-
tle lever directly controls engine thrust through the fuel control
unit. With the fuel computer operating normally, movement of
the throttle lever indirectly controls engine thrust through the
fuel computer.

Thrust Reverser
Two different thrust reverser systems are available on the Lear-
jet 35/36: the Dee Howard TR4000 and the Aeronca TFE731.
The Dee Howard TR4000 system is a target-type reverser that
is electrically controlled and hydraulically operated. The
Aeronca TFE731 is a cascade-type reverser that is electrically
controlled and pneumatically operated.
Autostow
When the ARM switch is in the OFF position, if any one of the
latch switches shows unlatched, the DEPLOY light flashes. If
any two door latches on the same side (inboard or outboard),
move toward the unlock position, the ARM light illuminates to
indicate activation of the autostow cycle. The DEPLOY annun-
ciator flashes to indicate a malfunction in the latches. During
the autostow cycle, the hydraulic selector valve positions to
STOW and applies hydraulic pressure to the thrust reverser
door actuator to hold them closed. The steady ARM light and
the flashing DEPLOY light continue until one of the latches
returns to a safe position or power is removed from the
reverser system.
Accumulator
The thrust reverser system incorporates an air-hydraulic accu-
mulator that provides enough hydraulic fluid and pressure for
one full deploy cycle in the event of a hydraulic system failure.
The accumulator precharge is 900 to 1,000 PSI.
Aeronca TFE731
With the NORM/EMER STOW switch in NORM, aircraft weight
on the wheels, and the throttle levers in IDLE, the thrust
reverser system arms and is ready for deployment.
Placing the reverse thrust levers in the idle position releases
interlocks; this allows the crew to lift the levers up and aft to
complete a circuit through the idle arming switches in the throt-
tle quadrant to the deploy side of the reverser control relay.
The control relay then routes DC power to the pneumatic latch
control, directional control, and air-on valves. The latch control
valve opens; bleed air pressure then actuates the pneumatic
latches to the open position. The UNLOCK lights illuminate.
Bleed air flows to the pneumatic actuator through the open
directional control valve. The pneumatic actuator operates and
drives the pinon gearboxes through a flexible drive shaft. The
pinon gearboxes then move the translating structure aft. The
reverser begins deploying. When the translating structure
reaches the full deployed position, sequence latches disen-
gage from the gear racks. The gear racks travel within the
beam assemblies and are driven 5.5 inches farther aft. The
gear racks actuate the blocker doors to the closed position
through yoke assemblies.
A nulling cable, attached to the outboard gearbox, mechani-
cally repositions the pneumatic actuator and shuts bleed air off
to the system. Once the thrust reversers are fully deployed, the
deploy limit switches actuate and complete an electrical circuit
to release the throttle release solenoid, extinguish the
UNLOCKED annunciator, and illuminate the DEPLOY annunci-
ator.
A pressure switch in the thrust reverser is actuated when
engine bleed air reaches 50 PSIAduring reverse thrust applica-
tion. The BLEED VALVE annunciators illuminate. The
DEPLOY and BLEED VALVE annunciators remain illuminated
until the thrust reversers are commanded to stow.
Stow
Placing the thrust reverser levers in stow (full forward and
down) operates reverser control switches that energize the
reverser control relays to the stow position. As engine RPM
decreases and bleed air pressure decreases below 40 PSIG,
the bleed air valves close to enable the actuator to reverse
direction. The bleed air valves open, the DEPLOY light extin-
guishes, and the UNLOCK light illuminates. An interlock pre-
vents thrust reverser lever movement while the thrust reverser
is in transit.
When the pneumatic actuator begins moving the gear rack, the
blocker doors move to the full open position. As the gear racks
enter their sequencing latches, the latches engage to lock the
translating beams and gear racks together. The translating
structure then continues moving forward toward the fully
stowed position.
The latches engage and the nulling cable turns off bleed air to
the pneumatic actuator. The UNLOCK annunciators extinguish;
the thrust reverser returns to the armed condition.

Sample TAF
Aterminal aerodrome forecast (TAF) describes the forecast
prevailing conditions at an airport and covers either a 9-hour
period or a 24-hour period. Nine-hour TAFs are issued every
three hours; 24-hour TAFs are issued every six hours. Amend-
ments (AMD) are issued as necessary. A newly issued TAF
automatically amends and updates previous versions. Also,
many foreign countries issue eighteen hour TAFs at six hour
intervals.
The following example has detailed explanations of the new
codes.

Deicing
When necessary, use the following methods to deice the air-
craft:
Q placing the aircraft in a warm hangar until the ice melts
Q mechanically brushing the snow or ice off with brooms,
brushes, or other means
Q
applying a heated water/glycol solution (one-step proce-
dure)
Q applying heated water followed by an undiluted glycol-
based fluid (two-step procedure).
Deicing Fluids
Two types of anti-icing/deicing fluids are in commercial use:
SAE/ISO Types I and II/IV. Type I fluids are used generally in
North America. Type II/IV fluids, also referred to as AEA Type
II/IV, are used generally in Europe.
Type I fluids are unthickened glycol-based fluids that are usu-
ally diluted with water and applied hot; they provide limited
holdover time.
Type II/IV fluids are thickened glycol-based fluids that are usu-
ally applied cold on a deiced aircraft; they provide longer hold-
over times than Type I fluids.
Deicing Procedures
One-step deicing involves spraying the aircraft with a heated,
diluted deicing/anti-icing fluid to remove ice, snow, or frost. The
fluid coating then provides limited protection from further accu-
mulation.
Two-step deicing involves spraying the aircraft with hot water or
a hot water/deicing fluid mixture to remove any ice, snow, or
frost accumulation followed immediately by treatment with anti-
icing fluid (usually Type II/IV FPD fluid).
Deice the aircraft from top to bottom. Avoid flushing snow, ice,
or frost onto treated areas. Start the deicing process by treating
the horizontal stabilizer followed by the vertical stabilizer. Con-
tinue by treating the fuselage top and sides. Finally, apply deic-
ing fluid to the wings.
Deicing fluid should not be applied to:
Q pitot/static tubes, static ports, temperature probes, AOA
vanes, or TAT probe
Q gaps between control surfaces and airfoil
Q cockpit windows
Q passenger windows
Q air and engine inlets and exhausts
Q vents and drains
Q wing and control surface trailing edges
Q brakes
Pre-takeoff Inspection
Within five minutes of takeoff, conduct an exterior aircraft
inspection from within the aircraft to:
Q note any loss of anti-icing fluid effectiveness
Q examine visible aircraft surfaces for ice and snow accu-
mulation
Q
use windshield wipers to observe ice or snow accumula-
tions.
If uncertain of current aircraft condition, conduct an exterior
“hands on” inspection or deice the aircraft again before flight.
Takeoff
During takeoff observe the following.
Q Do not use reduced thrust.
Q Accomplish an engine run-up to highest practical thrust
and observe stable engine operation before brake
release.
Q After setting takeoff throttle, verify that LP RPM and other
engine indications are normal.
Q Rotate to normal takeoff attitude at VR and not before.
Approach and Landing
During the descent approach observe the following.
Q Anticipate use of engine and wing anti-icing.
Q Arm AUTO ground spoilers for landing. At touchdown,
deploy manual speedbrakes.
Q As the ground spoilers and thrust reversers actuate,
immediately lower nose wheel to runway.
Q
With the anti-skid system operational, apply normal brak-
ing smoothly and symmetrically to maintain direction con-
trol.
Q Do not use asymmetric thrust on icy or slippery runways.
Q Be prepared for possible downwind drift on icy or slippery
runways with crosswind when using reverse thrust.
Q
Do not attempt to turn off runway at too high speeds.

Airway
Breathing
AIRWAY
Q
Open airway: lift chin, tilt head. (With neck injury, lift
chin but do not tilt head.)
Q Look for chest movement.
Q Listen for sound of breathing.
Q
Feel for breath on your cheek.
BREATHING
Q Head tilt position – pinch victim’s nose shut while lifting
chin with your other hand.
Q Give two full breaths while maintaining airtight seal with
your mouth over victim’s mouth.
CIRCULATION
Q Locate carotid artery pulse; hold 10 seconds. If no pulse:
Q Begin external chest compressions by locating hand
position two fingers above notch and placing heal of hand
on breastbone.
Q Perform 15 compressions of 11/2 to 2 inches at a rate of
80 to 100 compressions per minute. (Count, “One and
two and three and …,” etc.) Come up smoothly, keeping
hand contact with victim’s chest at all times.
Q Repeat the cycle of two breaths, 15 compressions until
victim’s pulse and breathing return. If only the pulse is
present, continue rescue breathing until medical assis-
tance is available.
Heart Attack
Signals
Q
Pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain in center of chest
behind breastbone.
Q
Sweating
Q Nausea
Q Shortness of breath
Q Feeling of weakness
Actions for Survival
Q Recognize signals
Q Stop activity and lie or sit down
Q Provide oxygen if available
Q If signals persist greater than two minutes, get victim to
medical assistance
Choking
If victim can cough or speak:
Q encourage continued coughing
Q provide oxygen if available.
If victim cannot cough or speak
Q perform Heimlich maneuver (abdominal thrusts):
1. stand behind victim; wrap arms around victim’s waist
2. place fist of one hand (knuckles up) in upper abdo-
men*
3. grasp fist with opposite hand
4. press fist into upper abdomen* with quick, inward and-
upward thrusts
5. perform maneuver until foreign body is expelled
Q provide supplemental oxygen if available.
*If victim is pregnant or obese, perform chest thrusts instead of
abdominal thrusts.

Emergency Exits
The plug-type emergency exit opens inward for quick egress.
Q To open an emergency exit from outside the aircraft,
push the release plate above the window. The window
unlocks and falls into the cabin.
Q To open an emergency exit from inside the aircraft, pull
the red release handle above the window. The window
unlocks and falls into the cabin. A fabric handle facilitates
evacuation.
