    ENGINE OPERATING LIMITSThe following limitations shall be observed. Each column presents limitations.The limits presented do not necessarily occur simultaneously. Refer to Pratt &Whitney Engine Maintenance Manual for specific actions required if limits areexceeded.

    FOOTNOTES:1. Maximum permissible sustained torque is 1520 ft-lbs. Propeller speeds

    (N2) must be set so as not to exceed power limitation.2. When gas generator speeds are above 72% N1 and oil temperatures are

    between 60C and 70C, normal oil pressure is between 85 and 105 psi.Oil pressures between 40 and 85 psi are undesirable; they should be toler-ated only for the completion of the flight, and then only at a reduced powersetting. Oil pressures below 40 psi are unsafe; they require that either theengine be shut down, or that a landing be made at the nearest suitable air-port, using the minimum power required to sustain flight.

    3. For increased service life of engine oil, an oil temperature of between 74to 80C is recommended. A minimum oil temperature of 55C is recom-mended for fuel heater operation at take-off power.

    4. These values are time-limited to two seconds.5. High ITT at ground idle may be corrected by reducing accessory load and/

    or increasing N1 rpm.6. Cruise torque values vary with altitude and temperature.7. Reverse power operation is limited to one minute.

    8. High generator loads at low N1 speeds may cause the ITT transient tem-perature limit to be exceeded. Observe generator load limits.

    9. Stabilized propeller operation on the ground between 500 and 1100 rpm isprohibited. Operation in this range can generate high propeller stresses,which can cause propeller damage and result in propeller failure and lossof control of the airplane. The propeller may be operated when feathered ator below 500 rpm.

    10. This value is time-limited to 20 seconds.11. This value is time-limited to 10 minutes.12. To account for power setting accuracy and steady state fluctuations, inad-

    vertent propeller excursions up to 1938 rpm are time-limited to 7 minutes.13. To account for power setting accuracy and steady state fluctuations, inad-

    vertent torque excursions up to 1550 ft-lbs are time-limited to 7 minutes.

    EXTERNAL POWER LIMITS External power carts will be set to 28.0 to 28.4 volts and be capable of generatinga minimum of 1000 amperes momentarily and 300 amps continuously.

    GENERATOR LIMITS The In-Flight Limits are: 100% GENERATOR LOAD and a MINIMUM N1 of 85%

    APPROVED FUEL ADDITIVES

    ANTI-ICING ADDITIVE

    Engine oil is used to heat the fuel on entering the fuel control. Since no tempera-ture measurement is available for the fuel at this point, it must be assumed to bethe same as the OAT. The graph below is used to determine the minimum oiltemperature required to maintain the fuel temperature above the freezing point ofwater, and thus prevent ice accumulations in the fuel control unit. Enter the graphat the known or forecast OAT and determine the minimum oil temperaturerequired for each phase of flight. If the anticipated actual oil temperature is notequal to, or above this minimum temperature, anti-icing additive conforming toMIL-I-27686 or MIL-I-85470 must be added to the fuel. Refer to Section 4, NOR-MAL PROCEDURES, for blending procedures.

    Prior to refueling, check with the fuel supplier to determinewhether or not anti-icing additive has already been addedto the fuel. If anti-icing additive is required, it must be prop-erly blended with the fuel to avoid deterioration of the fuelcell sealant. The additive concentration shall be a minimumof 0.10% and a maximum of 0.15% by volume. To assureproper concentration by volume of fuel on board, blendonly enough additive for the unblended fuel.

    FUEL BIOCIDE ADDITIVE

    Fuel biocide-fungicide BIOBOR JF in concentrations of 135 ppm or 270 ppmmay be used in the fuel. BIOBOR JF may be used as the only fuel additive or itmay be used with the anti-icing additive conforming to MIL-I-27686 or MIL-I-85470 specification. Used together the additives have no detrimental effect onthe fuel system components.

    Refer to the King Air 90 Series Maintenance Manual and the latest revision ofPratt & Whitney Service Bulletin No. 1244 for concentrations to use and for pro-cedures, recommendations and limitations pertaining to the use of biocidal/fungi-cidal additives in turbine fuels.

    Severe icing may result from environmental conditions outside ofthose for which the airplane is certificated. Flight in freezing rain,freezing drizzle, or mixed icing conditions (supercooled liquid waterand ice crystals) may result in ice build-up on protected surfaces ex-ceeding the capability of the ice protection system, or may result inice forming aft of the protected surfaces. This ice may not be shedusing the ice protection systems, and may seriously degrade theperformance and controllability of the airplane.

    maximum airspeed (VMO/MMO).8. The autopilot and yaw damper must not be used for takeoff and landing.9. Operation of the autopilot system with a pitch trim malfunction is prohibited.

    10. Do not manually override the autopilot during normal flight.

    Overriding the autopilot in pitch does not cancel the autopi-lot automatic trim. If a force is applied to the control columnwith the autopilot engaged, then automatic trim will run tooppose the applied force. This can lead to a severe out-of-trim condition during any phase of flight.

    11. The maximum coupled intercept angles are:Nav and Localizer - Less than 90Back Course - 70

    12. The minimum airspeed for autopilot operation must not be less than Vref,based on the airplanes configuration.

    13. Once established on a Localizer, Localizer Backcourse and ILSApproaches, with the inbound course set, do not turn or adjust the courseknob. Flight Director and autopilot will temporarily steer the airplane to thechange.

    7. Use of FMS to capture and track a DME arc outside the published endpoints is prohibited.

    8. Fuel management parameters are advisory only and must not replace theprimary fuel quantity indications.

    IFIS-5000 INTEGRATED FLIGHT INFORMATION SYSTEM1. The IFIS-5000 system provides supplemental airplane situational aware-

    ness information. Its use as a means for navigational or weather avoidanceis not approved.

    2. Display ranges less than 50 miles must not be used when the GEO-POLdata is selected for display. At shorter ranges, the situational picture pro-vided by this data (i.e. rivers, lakes, oceans and political boundaries) mayappear erroneous.

    3. The use of the airplane symbol on the Electronic Charts is prohibited fornavigation.

    4. The database utilized for the Electronic Charts must incorporate the cur-rent update cycle.

    5. When using the Electronic Charts, a paper equivalent (or electronic flightbag) must be on board and accessible to the pilot.

    6. Data-linked graphical weather (either XM Radio or Universal Weather) isfor informational purposes and should not be used for tactical decisionmaking. By its nature, graphical weather is delayed from real time weatherconditions. Use the aircrafts primary weather radar for all tactical decisionsabout weather avoidance.

    7. Digital Automatic Terminal Information Service (available only when Uni--versal Weather is installed):

    The flight crew shall verify that the D-ATIS numeric and alpha altimeter setting values are identical, e.g., ...ALTIMETER SETTING 29.95 (TWONINER NINER FIVE)...

    If the D-ATIS numeric and alpha altimeter setting values are different,the flight crew must not accept the D-ATIS Altimeter Setting nor rely on anyother D-ATIS information.

    TERRAIN AWARENESS AND WARNING SYSTEM+ (TAWS+)1. Navigation must not be predicated upon use of the Terrain Awareness Dis-

    play. The terrain display is intended to serve as a situational awarenesstool only, and may not provide the accuracy and/or fidelity on which tosolely base terrain avoidance maneuvering.

    2. The Terrain Awareness and Display (TAD) must be inhibited by selectingthe TERR INHIB switch/annunciator when within 15 nm of takeoff,approach, or landing at an airport not contained in the TAWS+ AirportDatabase. Refer to ACSS document 8006417 for airports contained in thedatabase. (See www.acsscustomerservices.com.)

    3. When the FMS is operating in the DR mode, the Terrain Awareness alert-ing must be inhibited by selecting the TERR INHIB switch/annunciator.

    NOTEThe terrain database, displays and alerting algorithms cur-rently account for limited cataloged human-made obstruc-tions in North America and Europe. If obstacle data is notin the database for a particular obstacle the ObstacleAwareness alerting is not available for the obstacle.

    4. The current local QNH altimeter setting must be entered in the pilots altim-eter for proper terrain alerting. In particular, the TERR INHIB switch/annun-ciator must be selected when operating in QFE mode.

    5. The terrain database part number displayed on the MFD by MDC diagnos-tics must be 9000280-023 or latest.

    6. The obstacle database part number displayed on the MFD by MDC diag-nostics must be 9000380-001 or latest.

    TRAFFIC ALERT AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM(TCAS I)

    1. The pilot must not maneuver the airplane based only on the traffic display.The traffic display is intended to assist in visually locating traffic and lacksthe resolution necessary for use in evasive maneuvering.

    2. If the pilot is advised by Air Traffic Control to disable the altitude reportingfunction of the transponder, the Traffic Advisory System must be turned off.

    3. The traffic advisory system can only detect aircraft that are transponderequipped.

    VNAV1. When using the VNAV system, the barometric altimeters must be used as

    the primary altitude reference for all operations.2. Use of VNAV guidance for a V-MDA approach that includes a step-down

    fix between the final approach fix and missed approach point is prohibited.

    3. VNAV altitudes must be displayed on the MFD map page or CDU legspage when utilizing VNAV for flight guidance.

    4. Use of VNAV while conducting a missed approach procedure is prohibited.5. Provided the FMS is receiving adequate usable sensor inputs, it has been

    demonstrated capable of and has been shown to meet the accuracy speci-fications of VNAV operation in accordance with AC 20-129. Such VNAVapproaches must be flown utilizing either the flight director or autopilot.

    6. VNAV approach guidance to a DA is not authorized if the reported surfacetemperature is below the Baro-VNAV minimum temperature limitationspecified on the applicable RNAV approach procedure chart.

    NOTEBarometric VNAV guidance during approach including theapproach transition, final approach segment and themissed approach procedure is not temperature compen-sated. Operating at uncompensated minimum IFR altitudeswill not provide expected terrain and obstacle clearance fortemperature below ISA.

    WEATHER RADAR

    The area within the scan arc and within 2 feet (0.65meters) of an operating TWR-852 system can be a hazard-ous area. Do not operate the systems in any mode otherthan standby (STBY) or test (TEST) when the antennamight scan over personnel within that range. Turning thetransmitter on while inside the hangar is not advisable.

    CRACKED OR SHATTERED WINDSHIELDThe following limitations apply when continued flight is required with a crackedouter or inner ply of the windshield.

    1. Continued flight with a cracked windshield is limited to 25 flight hours.2. Windshields which have a shattered inner ply will have numerous cracks

    which will obstruct forward vision and may produce small particles or flakesof glass that can break free of the windshield and interfere with the crewsvision. These windshields must be replaced prior to the next flight unless aspecial flight permit is obtained from the local FAA Flight Standards DistrictOffice.

    3. Crack(s) must not impair visibility.4. Crack(s) must not interfere with the use of windshield wipers for flights

    requiring the use of the wipers.5. Windshield Anti-ice must be operational for flights in icing conditions.
