LOSS OF AILERON ROLL CONTROL

Rudder – Yaw changes will have a secondary affect as
low rate roll control.

Autopilot – Depending where the failure occurred the
autopilot may be used to control roll.
Find a suitable airport with a long, wide runway aligned with the
wind direction if available. To avoid a cross control stall maintain
an airspeed 10 KIAS above normal.
LOSS OF FLAP CONTROL
Maintain an airspeed 5 KIAS above normal. Landing
distance will be increased.
LOSS OF RUDDER CONTROL
Find a suitable airport with a long, wide runway aligned with
the wind direction if available. If control has failed in one
direction (most common failure) land such that the
controlled direction opposes any crosswind component. To
avoid a cross control stall maintain an airspeed 10 KIAS
above normal. Touchdown at minimum speed. After
touchdown shut off engine to minimize idle thrust.
