After going through the in-flight engine failure flow, a decision will be made to try to fix the
dead engine or to immediately feather. (Hence, “fix or feather.”) If an engine is lost below 1000ft
AGL feather the prop on the dead engine. If an engine is lost above 1000ft AGL and there is
sufficient time/ground clearance, “fix” and troubleshoot the dead engine. The zero sideslip
condition should be established. (Hence, “raise the dead.”) After going through the engine failure
memory items always remember to consult the appropriate emergency checklist and declare an
emergency.
