EMERGENCY
NOTE
• An immediate landing is advisable regardless of take-off weight. Continued flight can not be assured if take-off weight exceeds the weight determined from the TAKE-OFF WEIGHT graph. Higher take-off weights will result in a loss of altitude while retracting the landing gear and feathering the propeller. Continued flight requires immediate pilot response to the following procedures:
1. Landing Gear and Flaps - UP
2. Throttle (inoperative engine) - IDLE
3. Propeller (inoperative engine) - FEATHER
4. Power (operative engine) - AS REQUIRED
5. Airspeed - AT OR ABOVE THE 50-FT TAKE-OFF SPEED (80 KNOTS)
After positive control of the airplane is established:
6. Secure inoperative engine:
a. Mixture Control - IDLE CUT-OFF
b. Fuel Selector - OFF
c. Aux Fuel Pump - OFF
d. Magneto/Start Switch - OFF
e. Alternator Switch - OFF
f. Cowl Flap - CLOSE
7. Airspeed - ESTABLISH 85 KTS
8. Electrical Load - MONITOR (Maximum load of 100% on remaining engine)
• NOTE: The most important aspect of engine failure is the necessity to maintain lateral and directional control. If airspeed is below 65 knots, reduce power on operative engine as required to maintain control. Refer to the SAFETY INFORMATION section for additional information regarding pilot technique.
