ENGINE
FAILURE
If
an
engine
failure
occurs
during
the
takeoff
run,
the
most
important
thing
to
do
is
stop
the
airplane
on
the
remaining
runway.
Those
extra
items
on
the
checklist
will
provide
added
safety
after
a
failure
of
this
wpe.
Prompt
lowering
of
the
nose
to
maintain
airspeed
and
establish
a
glide
attitude
is
the
first
response
to
an
engine
failure
after
takeoff.
In
most
cases,
the
landing
should
be
planned
straight
ahead
with
only
small
changes
in
direction
to
avoid
obstructions.
Altitude
and
airspeed
are
seldom
sufficient
to
execute
a 180°
gliding
turn
necessary
to
return
to
the
runway.
The
checklist
procedures
assume
that
adequate
time
exists
to
secure
the
fuel
and
ignition
systems
prior
to
touchdown.
After
an
engine
failure
in
flight,
the
best
glide
speed
as
shown
in
figure
3-1
should
be
established
as
quickly
as
possible.
While
gliding
toward
a
suitable
landing
area,
an
effort
should
be
made
to
identify
the
cause
of
the
failure.
If
time
permits,
an
engine
restart
should
be
attempted
as
shown
in
the
checklist.
If
the
engine
cannot
be
restarted,
a.
forced
landing
without
power
must
be
completed.
