strict
accordance
with the warning of the FAA
Flight Test
Guide.
Engine out minimum
control
speed generally
decreases
with
altitude,
while the
single engine stall speed
remains
approximately
constant,
for
normally aspirated
engines. No such
demonstration
should
be
attempted when the
density
altitude and
temperature
are such
that
the engine out
minimum control speed
is known,
or discovered
to
be,
close
to the
stalling
speed. Loss of directional or
lateral
control,
just
as a stall occurs,
is potentially
hazardous.
Vsse,
the
airspeed
below
which an engine should not
be intentionally
rendered
inoperative for
practice
purposes,
was established
because
of the apparent
practice
of some pilots,
instructors,
and examiners,
of
intentionally
rendering an engine
inoperative
at a
time
when
the
airplane is
being
operated at a speed
close to, or
below the
power
idle
stall speed. Unless
the
pilot
takes immediate
and proper
corrective
action under such circumstances,
it is
possible
to
enter an inadvertent
spin.
It is recognized
that
flight
below
Vsse with one
engine
inoperative,
or simulated inoperative,
may
be
required
for
conditions
such
as
practice
demonstration
of Vmca
for
multi-engine
pilot
certification.
Refer to the procedure set
forth
in the
Information
Manual
for
your
aircraft.
