Amplification
If all attempts to restart the engine fail and a forced landing is
imminent, select a suitable field and prepare for the landing. If flight
conditions or terrain does not permit a safe landing, CAPS deployment
may be required. Refer to Section 10, Cirrus Airframe Parachute
System (CAPS) for CAPS deployment scenarios and landing
considerations.
A suitable field should be chosen as early as possible so that
maximum time will be available to plan and execute the forced landing.
For forced landings on unprepared surfaces, use full flaps if possible.
Be aware that use of full (100%) flaps will reduce glide distance. Full
flaps should not be selected until landing is assured. Land on the main
gear and hold the nose wheel off the ground as long as possible.
