After
an
engine
failure
in
flight,
the
most
important
course
of
action
is
to
continue
flying
the
airplane.
Best
glide
speed
as
shown
|
in
Figure
3-1
should
be established
as
quickly
as
possible.
While
gliding
toward
a
suitable
landing
area,
an
effort
should
be
made
to
identify
the
cause
of
the
failure.
If
time
permits,
an
engine
restart
should be
attempted
as
shown
in
the
checklist.
If
the
engine
cannot
be
restarted,
a
forced
landing
without
power
must
be
completed.
