3.1 GENERAL

This section provides the recommended procedures for coping with various emergency or critical situations.
All of the emergency procedures required by the FAA as well as those necessary for operation of the airplane, as
determined by the operating and design features of the airplane, are presented.
Emergency procedures associated with optional systems and equipment which require handbook supplements
are presented in Section 9, Supplements.
This section is divided into two basic parts. The first part contains the emergency procedures checklists.
These checklists supply an immediate action sequence to be followed during critical situations with little
emphasis on the operation of the systems.
The second part of the section provides amplified emergency procedures corresponding to the emergency
procedures checklist items. These amplified emergency procedures contain additional information to provide the
pilot with a more complete description of the procedures so they may be more easily understood.
Pilots must familiarize themselves with the procedures given in this section and must be prepared to take the
appropriate action should and emergency situation arise. The procedures are offered as a course of action for
coping with the particular situation or condition described. They are not a substitute for sound judgement and
common sense.
Most basic emergency procedures are a normal part of pilot training. The information presented in this
section is not intended to replace this training. This information is intended to provide a source of reference for the
procedures which are applicable to this airplane. The pilot should review standard emergency procedures
periodically to remain proficient in them.
