Amplified Emergency Procedures
Engine Failure
 If occurs on take off roll STOP on the remaining runway
 If airborne prompt lowering of the nose to maintain airspeed and establish a glide attitude is the
first response. LAND STRAIGHT AHEAD with only small changes in direction to avoid obstructions
 Remember Best Glide Speed
 3100 Ibs – 75 KIAS
 2600 Ibs – 69 KIAS
 2100 Ibs – 62 KIAS
 If time permits an engine restart should be attempted, if unsuccessful forced landing
Forced Landing
 Select a suitable field and prepare for landing
 Transmit Mayday message of 121.5 giving location and intentions
 Squawk 7700
 DO NOT turn off AVIONICS MASTER switch or MASTER switch until the landing is assured.
Premature deactivation of these will disable the airplane electrical systems (radio and flaps)
 Activate the ELT transmitter by positioning the cockpit mounted switch to the ON position.
Landing without Elevator Control
 Trim for horizontal flight with an airspeed of approximately 80 KIAS by using the throttle and
elevator trim controls.
 Then DO NOT CHANGE THE ELEVATOR TRIM CONTROL SETTING; control the glide angle by
adjusting power exclusively
 At flare out, the nose down moment resulting from power reduction is an adverse factor and the
airplane may hit on the nose wheel
 Consequently, at flare out, the elevator trim control should be adjusted toward the full nose up
position and the power adjusted so that the airplane will rotate to the horizontal attitude for
touchdown.
 Close throttle at touchdown
Fires
 Follow checklist and execute a force landing. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RESTART THE ENGINE
 Initial indication of an electrical fire is usually the odor of burning insulation
Emergency Operation in Clouds
 If both vacuum pumps fail in flight the attitude indicator will fail and you will have to rely on the turn
coordinator and HSI. If autopilot is installed it may also fail.
 Executing a 180 turn in clouds
o Note compass heading
o Using the clock, initiate a standard rate left turn, holding the turn coordinator symbolic
airplane wing opposite the lower left index mark for 60 SECONDS. Then roll back to
level flight by leveling the miniature airplane
