Engine Fire During Start
Starter: KEEP CRANKING Mixture: IDLE CUT-OFF Throttle: OPEN Fuel Pump: OFF Fuel Selector: OFF
Engine Power Loss During Takeoff
If enough runway remaining: LEAVE GEAR DOWN AND LAND STRAIGHT AHEAD
If area ahead is rough or it is necessary to clear obstructions: GEAR UP
If sufficient altitude has been gained to attempt restart:
Fuel Selector: SWITCH TO TANK CONTAINING FUEL
Electric Fuel Pump: CHECK ON
Mixture: CHECK RICH
Alternate Air: OPEN
Engine Power Loss in Flight
If at low altitude: MAINTAIN 79 KIAS AND PREPARE FOR POWER OFF LANDING
If altitude permits:
Fuel Selector: SWITCH TO TANK CONTAINING FUEL
Electric Fuel Pump: ON
Mixture: RICH
Alternate Air: OPEN
Engine Gauges: CHECK FOR INDICATION OF POWER LOSS
If no fuel flow/pressure is indicated, check tank selector position to be sure it is on a tank containing fuel
When power is restored:
Alternate Air: CLOSE
FUEL PUMP: OFF
If power is not restored: Trim for 79 KIAS and prepare for power off landing
Power Off Landing
Trim for 79 KIAS.
Locate Suitable Field
Establish Spiral Pattern
1000 feet above field at downwind position for normal landing approach
When field can be easily reached: SLOW TO 72 KIAS FOR SHORTEST LANDING
Power Off Landing- Gear Down Emergency Landing
Touchdowns should normally be made at the lowest possible airspeed with full flaps When committed to landing: Landing gear selector- DOWN Flaps- AS DESIRED Throttle- CLOSE Mixture- IDLE CUT-OFF Ignition- OFF BATT MASTR Switch- OFF ALTR Switch- OFF Fuel Selector- OFF Seat Belts and Harness- TIGHT
NOTE: If battery master switch is OFF, the landing gear cannot be retracted
Power Off Landing- Gear Up Emergency Landing
In the event a gear up landing is required, proceed as follows: Flaps- AS DESIRED Throttle- CLOSE Mixture- IDLE CUT-OFF Ignition- OFF BATT MASTR Switch- OFF Fuel Selector- OFF Seat Belt and Harness- TIGHT
NOTE: Contact surface at minimum possible airspeed
Fire in Flight- Electrical Fire (Smoke in Cabin)
BATT MASTR Switch- OFF
ALTR Switch- OFF
Vents- OPEN
Cabin Heat- OFF
Land as soon as possible
Fire in Flight- Engine Fire
Fuel Selector- OFF Throttle- CLOSED Mixture- IDLE CUT-OFF Electric Fuel Pump- CHECK OFF Heater and Defroster- OFF
Proceed with power off landing procedure
Loss of Oil Pressure
LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND INVESTIGATE CAUSE
PREPARE FOR POWER OFF LANDING
Loss of Fuel Flow/Pressure
Electric Fuel Pump: ON
Fuel Selector: CHECK ON TANK CONTAINING FUEL
High Oil Temperature
LAND AT THE NEAREST AIRPORT AND INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM
PREPARE FOR POWER OFF LANDING
Electrical Failure- ALT Annunciator Light Illuminated
Ammeter: CHECK to VERIFY INOP ALTERNATOR
If Ammeter shows zero: ALT SWITCH OFF
Reduce electrical loads to minimum: Alternator Field
Circuit Breaker: CHECK and RESET as required
ALTR Switch: ON
If power not restored:
ALTR Switch: OFF
If alternator output cannot be restored, reduce the electrical loads and land as soon as practical. The battery is the only remaining source of electrical power
Electrical Overload- Alternator Over 20 amps above known electrical load
BATT MASTR Switch: OFF
If ammeter reading does NOT decrease:
ALTR Switch: OFF
Land as soon as possible. Use Emergency Landing Gear Extension to lower landing gear.
If ammeter reading DOES decrease:
BATT MASTR Switch: ON
Ammeter: MONITOR
If ammeter reading does NOT begin to decrease within 5 minutes:
BATT MASTR Switch: OFF
Land as soon as possible.
If ammeter reading DOES begin to decrease within 5 minutes:
Proceed with flight while monitoring the ammeter throughout
Propeller Overspeed
Throttle: RETARD
Oil Pressure: CHECK
Propeller Control: FULL DECREASE RPM, THEN SET IF ANY CONTROL AVAILABLE
Airspeed: REDUCE
Throttle: AS REQUIRED to remain below 2700 rpm
Emergency Landing Gear Extension
Prior to emergency extension procedure: BATT MASTR Switch: CHECK ON ALTR Switch: CHECK ON Circuit Breakers: CHECK NAV LIGHT Switch: OFF (in daytime) Gear Indicator bulbs: CHECK
If landing gear does not check down and locked:
Airspeed: 87 KIAS
Landing Gear Selector Switch: GEAR DOWN POSITION
If gear has still failed to lock down, move and hold the emergency lever down to the Emergency Down position.
If gear has still failed to lock down, yaw the airplane abruptly from side to side with the rudder.
If the nose gear will not lock down using the above procedure, slow the aircraft to the lowest safe speed attainable using the lowest power setting required for safe operation and accomplish the following:
Landing Gear Selector Switch: GEAR DOWN POSITION
If landing gear does not check down, recycle the gear through up position and then select gear DOWN.
Spin Recovery
Rudder: FULL OPPOSITE TO DIRECTION OF ROTATION
Control Wheel: FULL FORWARD WHILE NEUTRALIZING AILERONS
Throttle: IDLE
Rudder: AS REQUIRED TO SMOOTHLY REGAIN LEVEL FLIGHT ATTITUDE
Open Door
If both upper and side latches are open, the door will trail slightly open and air speeds will be reduced slightly.
To close the door in flight: SLOW AIRPLANE TO 87 KIAS
Cabin Vents: CLOSE
Storm Window: Open
If upper latch is open: LATCH
If side latch is open: PULL ON ARMREST WHILE MOVING LATCH HANDLE TO LATCH POSITION
If both latches are open: LATCH SIDE LATCH then TOP LATCH
Engine Roughness
Mixture: ADJUST for MAXIMUM SMOOTHNESS Alternate Air: OPEN Electric Fuel Pump: ON Fuel Selector: SWITCH TANKS Engine Gauges: CHECK Magneto Switch: L then R then BOTH
If operation is satisfactory on either magneto, proceed on that magneto at reduced power, with full RICH mixture, to a landing at the first available airport. If roughness persists, prepare for a precautionary landing.
