A normal downwind altitude is approximately _______ .
800 ft AGL
Ensure canopy release handle is ______________ prior to closing the canopy to prevent damage to the canopy sill and locking pins

130 ft
If actual takeoff roll or climb-out performance is degraded, ______________
confirm the airbrakes are closed and locked
If the radio display begins to flash, ____________________
cease transmitting unless absolutely necessary (receiver-only operation should still be available) and recharge battery
