Safety Information
asymmetrical thrust. Yaw forces must be balanced
with the rudder. Loss
of
power on one engine also
reduces prop wash over the wing.
In
addition, yaw
aff ects the
lift distribution over the wing causing a
roll toward the
"dead"
engine. These roll forces
may be
balanced by banking slightly (up to
5°)
into
the operating engine.
Airspeed
is
the key to safe single engine operalions.
For most
light twins there
is
an:
- airspeed below which directional
control cannot
be
maintained
- airspeed below which an
intentional engine cut should
never be made
- airspeed that
wm
give
the best single engine
rate-of-climb (or the slowest
loss
of
altitude)
- airspeed that
will
give the
steepest
ang1e-of-climb
with one engine-out
