Section 3 – Emergency Procedures
3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION ON EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
This section contains procedures for various emergencies that may occur.
Emergencies caused by aircraft or engine malfunctions are rare if proper
pre-flight inspections and maintenance are practiced. Not all emergencies
that may occur can be listed here in full; therefore their solution depends
on experience of the crew controlling the course of such events.

3.3.1 ENGINE FIRE DURING START
Due to the high-octane fuel carried by the aircraft, there is always the
possibility of a violent explosion occurring if an aircraft catches fire.
Personnel are therefore warned not to take undue risks in attempting to
save an aircraft that is obviously well alight. A small fire extinguisher is
only meant to be used on small fires. For large fires, trained personnel
with appropriate equipment are required.
Evacuate the aircraft and move away
Extinguish fire (if possible)
