EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
APPROVED
4 Doors
UNLATCH before impact with
water
5 Airplane EVACUATE
6 Flotation Devices
INFLATE WHEN CLEAR OF
AIRPLANE
NOTE: If available, life preservers should be donned and life raft should be
prepared for immediate evacuation upon touchdown. Consider OPENING
a door prior to assuming the emergency landing body position in order
to provide a ready escape path.
It may be necessary to allow some cabin flooding to equalize pressure on
the doors. If the doors cannot be opened, break out the windows and crawl
through the opening.
3.8.3 LANDING WITHOUT ELEVATOR CONTROL
The pitch trim spring cartridge is attached directly to the elevator and pro-
vides a backup should you lose the primary elevator control system. Set
elevator trim for a 60 KIAS approach to landing. Thereafter, do not change
the trim setting until in the landing flare. During the flare, the nose-down mo-
ment resulting from a power reduction may cause the airplane to hit on the
nosewheel. At touchdown, bring the power lever to idle.
1 Flaps SET +2
2 Trim SET 60 KIAS
3 Throttle AS REQUIRED FOR GLIDE ANGLE
The Ballistic Parachute Rescue System (BPRS) should be activated in the
event of a life-threatening emergency where BPRS deployment is deter-
mined to be safer than continued flight and landing.
