INTRODUCTION
Section 3 provides checklist and amplified procedures for coping with emergencies that may occur.
Emergencies caused by airplane or engine malfunctions are extremely rare if proper preflight
inspections and maintenance are practiced. Enroute weather emergencies can be minimized or
eliminated by careful flight planning and good judgment when unexpected weather is encountered.
However, should an emergency arise, the basic guidelines described in this section should be considered
and applied as necessary to correct the problem. Emergency procedures associated with ELT and other
optional systems can be found in Section 9.
