Term
Single Engine Waveoff/Missed Approach
Definition

1. Power-Maximum (ensure PROPELLER lever is full foward)

2. Nose attitude-Establish positive rate of climb (7 to 10 deg nose up)

3. Airspeed-As required (VXSE or VYSE)

4. Gear-UP

5. Flaps-UP


Term
Windshear Escape Maneuver
Definition

2. Autpilot-DISENGAGE

3. Pitch attitude/wings-Rotate towards 15 deg/gently roll wings level

4. Configuration-Do not change

  +/- 15 KIAS

  +/- 500 FPM

  +/- 5 deg of pitch attitude

  +/- 1 dot glideslope displacement

  Unusual throttle position for a significant period of time

Term
EMERGENCY DESCENT PROCEDURE
Definition

1. POWER levers-IDLE

2. PROPELLER levers-Full forward

3. FLA)PS-APPROACH (VFE)

4. Landing gear-DOWN (VLE)

5. Airspeed-Do not exceed VLE)

Term

2. Descent-As required

Term
FUSELAGE FIRE
Definition

1. Oxygen masks-Don/deploy(crew 100 percent)(both/TA)

Term

Term
PROP FAILURE OR OVERSPEED
Definition

1. Power lever(affected engine)-Reduce

 

 

-Primary governor normally controls prop within 1,600-2,000 RPM range.  

   If it fails, the prop will either feather or overspeed.

-Overspeed governor activates if prop reaches 2080+/-40 RPM dumping

   excess oil pressure from the prop hub.

-If prop RPM reaches 106% of selected RPM, the fuel topping portion of

   the primary governor bleeds air from pnuematic side of fuel control

   unit limiting fuel flow to the engine to ensure prop does not exceed  

   2120 RPM.

Term

ENGINE FLAMEOUT

(Second Engine)

Definition

1. Airstart-As required

 

 

 

Caution

2-3,000' altitude loss should be expected during airstart of 2nd engine.  If below 3,000' AGL, you may not have enough altitude for the restart.

Term
EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUTDOWN
Definition

1. Condition lever-FUEL CUTOFF (PNF)

2. PROPELLER lever-FEATHER (PNF)

 

 

Recommended for the following indications (CREOLE):

-Chip light

-Runaway torque increase in flight

-Engine fire

-Oil pressure low

-Leaking oil/fuel

-Engine failure in flight

Term
