SECTION IV
SECTION IV
EMERGENCY
PROCEDURES
INTRODUCTION
This
section
contains
procedures
that
are recommended
if
an
emergency
condition
should
occur
during ground
operation,
take-off,
or
in flight.
These
procedures
are suggested
as the
best
course of action
for
coping
with
the
particular
condition
described, but
are not
a
substitute
for
sound
judgement
and common
sense.
Since
emergencies
rarely
happen in
modern
aircraft, their occurrence
is
usually unexpected,
and the
best
corrective
actior
may not always
be
obvious.
Pilots should
familiarize
themselves
with the
procedures given in
this section
and
be
prepared
to take
appropriate
action should
an
emergency
arise.
Most
basic
emergency
procedures,
such
as power
off
landings,
are a
part
of normal
pilot
training.
Although
these emergencies
are
discussed
herein,
this
information is
not
intended
to
replace
such training,
but
only
to
provide
a source
of reference
and
review,
and to
provide
information
on
procedures
which are not the same
for
all aircraft.
It
is
suggested
that
the
pilots
review
standard
emergency
procedures
periodically
to
remain
proficient in
them.
In the
procedures
that
follow,
critical
actions
with
respect
to time
are
indicated
by
the
use
of
bold print,
these
actions
should
be
performed
immediately
if
the
emergency
condition
is
not
to
be
aggravated.
The remaining
procedures
are non-critical
in
the sense that
time
is
usually available
for
consulting
the check
list.
GROUND
OPERATIONS
ENGINE
FIRE DURING
START
Engine
fires during
start
are usually
the result of over
priming.
The
procedures below
are
designed
to
draw
the excess
fuel back into
the
induction
system:
