Since there is no cross-country item included in this flight test, this is the only opportunity for
the candidate to demonstrate the ability to set the power controls and configure the aircraft properly
for cruise flight.
The examiner must be familiar with the cruise procedures outlined in the POH/AFM. In addition to
providing specific power settings and correction factors for non-standard atmospheric conditions, the
manufacturer may make recommendations concerning aeroplane configuration such as the position of cowl
flaps, the selection of fuel tanks and the use of various systems such as de-icing, cabin pressurization
systems, etc.
