3-4 AMPLIFIED EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

The following Amplified Emergency Procedures elaborate upon information
contained in the Emergency Procedures Checklist portion of this Section.
These amplified procedures provide information not readily adaptable to a
checklist format. Pilots should become familiar with the amplified procedures
to have a better understanding of why certain steps are performed in the
checklists and to assist in troubleshooting emergencies.

ENGINE FAILURE

During Takeoff Roll

If an engine failure occurs during the takeoff roll, the most important thing to
do is control the airplane and bring it to a stop on the remaining runway. The
other items included in the checklist provide additional safety after a failure of
this type occurs.
WARN I NG:
training purposes is not recommended, due to the high risk involved.

Immediately Following Takeoff

If an engine failure occurs shortly after takeoff (less than 1000 feet AGL), the
most important thing to do is to maintain control of the airplane by immediately
lowering the nose and maintaining airspeed. Feathering the propeller will
reduce drag substantially, resulting in an increase in glide distance. In most
situations, the landing should be executed straight ahead or within 45° left
or right of the runway heading, as necessary to avoid obstructions. The
checklist format provides steps for securing the fuel and electrical systems, on
the assumption there is enough time to accomplish these items.
