INTRODUCTION
Section 3 provides checklist and amplified procedures for coping with
emergencies that may occur. Emergencies caused by airplane or
engine malfunctions are extremely rare if proper preflight inspections
and maintenance are practiced. Enroute weather emergencies can be
minimized or eliminated by careful flight planning and good judgment
when unexpected weather is encountered. However, should an
emergency arise, the basic guidelines described in this section should
be considered and applied as necessary to correct the problem. In any
emergency situation, the most important task is continued control of the
airplane and maneuver to execute a successful landing.
Emergency procedures associated with optional or supplemental
equipment are found in Section 9, Supplements.
