Introduction; Airspeeds For Emergency Operation - Cessna 172S Nav III Information Manual

CESSNA SECTION 3
— MODEL 172S NAV III EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
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.
