P69 info
 
Does anyone know where one can get some good P68 info? The POH is very light on in some areas.

Cheers...GG

I assume you are talking about a Partenavia?
If so which one and what would you like to know?

I have some pretty comprehensive handling note on the P68b if you want em, PM me.

An old instructor said to me:

Somewhere in a village northern italy is a little old man who lives alone in the top floor of an apratment block. He is the only person in the world who understands the fuel system of knobs and lines above the pilot's heads.

If the engines are getting fuel, don't touch any fuel levers!

Oh, and if you ditch, make sure the flaps are up or you cannot open the rear door.

And have a sunshade. And if you are over six foot, book into a physio after your flight.

It's a B model so I might take u up on that offer wiz. Does anyone know if up is "on" or "off" for the standby voltage regulator switch? I am guessing down is on like the switches on the row below. I dont seem to get any indication on the voltmeter switching between one position or the other??

Its a bit of a pain in the back to get in anf out of hey. All worth it when you have to send a passenger in a short skirt up to the front RHS however...

Thanks all GG...

Company i work for has 2 P68 and in one aircraft the voltage regulator goes up and the othere it goes down. I guess it depends who has replaced the regulator switch if it goes up or down.
