for application
for
the

course may

It
is
recommended
that
all pilots
who
plan
to
fly
above
10,000
feet
take
this
training
before flying
this high
and then
take
refresher
training
every
two
or
three
years.

Sluggish RPM
control
and
propeller
overspeed with
poor
RPM
recovery
after
rapid
throttle
application
are
indications that
nitrogen
pressure
in
the
propeller
dome
is
low.

Experience
has
shown that
the
training
advantage
gained by
pulling
a
mixture
control
or
turning off the
fuel
to
simulate engine
failure
at
low
altitude
is
not
worth
the
risk
assumed,
therefore,
it is
recom-
mended
that
instead
of using
either of
these
procedures
to
simulate
loss
of
power
at
low
altitude, the throttle
be
retarded
slowly
to
idle
position. Fast
reduction of
power
may
be
harmful
to
the engine.
A
power
setting of
2200 RPM
is
recommended
for
simulated
one
engine
operation,
