KFC 225 Detailed System Operation
Takeoff And Climb To Assigned Altitude
3. The autopilot is responding to the heading select
mode with a left bank.
4. Selected altitude has been reached and auto-
matic altitude capture occurs. The autopilot has
completed the turn and is now established on a
010° heading.
1. The aircraft is well off the ground and estab-
lished at a safe climb rate.
The heading bug on the HSI is turned to the
desired heading of 080° (runway heading).
By depressing the HDG button on the KFC 225,
the flight director engages into the Heading and
Pitch Attitude Hold modes and maintains the
selected heading of 080° and current ppitch
attitude. Pressing the AP button will engage the
autopilot to track these commands.
2. The heading bug on the HSI is turned to the new
desired heading of 010° and the aircraft begins
to respond with an immediate left turn. A cruise
altitude of 7,000 feet is entered using the rotary
knobs. Altitude ARM annunciation occurs auto-
matically upon selection.
