Section V - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
This section contains the procedures to follow in case of emergency. In
case of an emergency situation it is important to know these procedures to
be able to solve the situation with maximum safety.
This gyroplane, like most recreational air vehicles, is fitted with a non-
certified engine. This means that there may be a higher risk of engine
failure than with a certified aircraft engine, with the associated risks of
damage or injury as the result of an unplanned landing.
The "Emergency Procedures" contained in this section consist of the
following procedural sets:
5.1 Engine failure during take-off run.
5.2 Engine failure on take-off (below 150 ft)
5.3 Engine failure on take-off (above 150 ft)
5.4 Engine failure in flight.
5.5 Engine restart procedure.
5.6 Engine fire on the ground.
5.7 Engine or electrical fire in flight.
5.1 ENGINE FAILURE DURING TAKE-OFF RUN
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Close throttle. Engine failure may be sudden or accompanied by
misfiring, typical of fuel starvation.
2. Keep heading and flare with nose up.
3. Ignition and fuel pumps OFF.
4. Rotor brake ON.
