SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION CONCERNING ENGINE-OUT
DURING TAKEOFF
The most critical time for an engine-out conditon in a
multi-engine aircraft is during a two or three second period
late in the takeoff run while the aircraft is accelerating to
a safe engine-failure speed.
A detailed knowledge of recom-
mended single-engine airspeeds, see Figure 3-1, is essential
for safe operation of this aircraft.
The airspeed indicator is marked with a red radial line
at the minimum single-engine control speed and a blue radial
line at the best single-engine rate-of-climb speed to f acili-
tate instant recognition.
The following paragraphs present a
detailed discussion of the problems associated with engine
failures during takeoff.

MINIMUM SINGLE-ENGINE CONTROL SPEED.
The multi-engine air-
craft must reach the minimum control speed (81 KIAS) before
full control deflections can counteract the adverse rolling
and yawing tendencies associated with one engine inoperative
and full power operation on the other engine.
This speed is
indicated by a red radial line on the airspeed indicator.
RECOMMENDED SAFE SINGLE-ENGINE SPEED.
Although the aircraft
is controllable at the minimum control speed, the aircraft
