| Also in boldface above: "**With batteries and generators off, it should also be remembered that there is no electrical power for the fuel booster pumps. At low altitudes, this provides no problem, but at higher altitudes, nose high attitudes, steep banks, and uncoordinated maneuvers should be avoided so as not to disturb the gravity feed of fuel to the engines.** | Also in boldface above: "**With batteries and generators off, it should also be remembered that there is no electrical power for the fuel booster pumps.
