Safety Information
In any
twin
engine
airplane,
fundamental
aerodynamics
dictate
that
if
the airplane is allowed
to become fully stalled
while
one engine is providing
lift-producing
thrust
the yawing movement
which
can
induce
a spin
will
be present.
Consequently,
it
is
important
to
immediately
reduce
power
on the
operating engine, lower the nose to reduce the angle
of attack, and
increase
the airspeed to
recover
from
the stall. In any twin engine aircraft,
if
application
of stall recovery controls
is delayed
a rapid rolling
and
yawing
motion may
develop,
even against full
aileron
and
rudder,
resulting
in
the
airplane
becoming
inverted during
the onset of
a
spinning
motion. Once the airplane has been permitted
to
progress beyond the stall and
is
allowed to reach the
rapid rolling and yawing condition,
the pilot must
then
immediately initiate
the
generally
accepted spin
recovery
procedure
for multi-engine airplanes, which
is
as follows:
Immediately move the control column full
forward, apply full rudder opposite to the
direction
of the spin and reduce power on
both engines to idle. These three actions
should be
done
as near simultaneously as
possible;
then
continue
to hold this
control position until rotation
stops and
then neutralize all controls and execute
a
