7. CAS — Clear/as required.
As required, and that's how you will find it in the company checklist.
I'm not saying that we need to use the TL, but that Agusta can write better manuals and if the TL is only for OEI training they need to be more clear.
Also with the floats, it doesn't cost money to put something like (arm floats up to vne) so I don't have to fight with every pilot afraid to arm them.
