Bold Face Emergencies Flashcards
Ground Egress
Warning: If the decision to eject is made, the canopy must be closed and locked.
If necessary:
1. Eject
Otherwise:
- Throttle - OFF
- Firewall Shutoff - Remove guard and pull
- Command Ejection Selector - Solo, Locked in detent
- Seat Firing Handle Safety Pin - Insert through housing
- Parking Brake - As required
- Canopy - Open/ CFS Operation as required
- Unstrap Completely:
a. Shoulder Harness
b. Lap Strap
c. SSK Fittings
d. Leg Restraints - Battery, Generator, Auxiliary Battery - OFF
- Aircraft - Vacate and move clear upwind.
CFS Operation
- Other Occupant/ External Parties - Warn
- Oxygen mask - Donned
- Visors - Down
- CFS Handle - Rotate 90 degrees anti-clockwise, close eyes and pull.
Emergency Oxygen Fails After Ejection
If breathing is restricted whilst still attached to seat after ejection
- Green Ring - Pull up and aft
Note: Several attempts may be required to activate flow.
Automatic Separation Fails After Ejection
- MOR - Operate
Ejection Seat Unlocked
Warning only
Warning: If the seat becomes unlocked from the catapult and slides partially up the rails or out of the cockpit, ejection is still possible, but the ejection handle must be pulled, followed by the activation of the MOR handle. Low altitude ejection capabilities are compromised under these circumstances.
Takeoff Abort
- Throttle - Idle
- Brakes - As Required
If aircraft is likely to depart runway in uncontrolled condition, consider Ejection or Emergency Shutdown.
Tyre Failure During Takeoff or Landing
(Drill:
A. If you decide to stop
B. If Takeoff is continued)
If you decide to stop:
1. Abort Takeoff/ Continue with landing
If Takeoff is continued:
1. Gear and Flaps Position - Maintain
EFATO
(A. If enough runway ahead and gear down
B. If below forced landing parameters and gear up
C. If above forced landing parameters)
If sufficient runway remains straight ahead and gear is down:
- Throttle - Idle, then Off when appropriate
- Attempt landing or Eject
If below forced landing parameters and gear up:
1. Eject
If above forced landing parameters:
1. Carry out forced landing or Eject.
Engine Fire/ FIRE Caption
Symptoms and drill (on ground and in air)
Possible Symptoms:
- Smoke/ Flames

On the ground:
1. Egress
In the air:
- Throttle - Minimum Practicable
- Check for signs of fire.
If definite signs of fire and above 10,000ft AMSL:
3. Green Ring - Pull up and aft
Note: several attempts may be required to activate flow.
4. Altitude: Initiate descent (to achieve below 10,000ft AMSL within 10 minutes).
In all events with definite signs on fire:
- Throttle - Off
- Firewall Shutoff - Remove guard and pull
If engine fire persists:
7. Eject
If engine fire extinguishes:
7. Pre-meditated ejection or forced landing.
If no definite signs of fire (with or without fire caption):
Not Bold Face
Emergency Shutdown
If on the Ground:
Egress
If at greater than 10,000ft AMSL:
1. Green ring - pull up and aft.
Note: several attempts may be required to activate flow.
2. Altitude - Initiate descent (to achieve below 10,000ft AMSL within 10 minutes).
In all events:
- Throttle - Off
- Firewall Shutoff: Remove guard and pull
- Carry out pre-meditated ejection or forced landing.
Engine Mechanical Failure
Symptoms, note and drill
Symptoms:
- Loss of thrust
- N1 rapidly reducing
- TQ rapidly reducing
- ITT reducing
- Possible noise and vibration
Note: Do not attempt a relight.
- Carry out Emergency shutdown.
Flameout/ Inadvertent Throttle Off
Symptoms and drill
Symptoms:
- Loss of thrust
- N1 reducing
- TQ reducing
- ITT reducing
If above 10,000ft AMSL:
1. Green ring - pull up and aft.
Note: several attempts may be required to activate flow.
2. Altitude - Initiate descent (to achieve below 10,000ft AMSL within 10 minutes).
Consider:
Immediate relight or
PMU Norm Relight
PMU Off Relight
Immediate Relight
If time and circumstances do not permit:
1. Eject
Otherwise:
- Throttle - Off
- Starter - Auto/ Reset
When N1 at a minimum of 13%:
- Throttle - Idle
- Engine indications - monitor.
If relight is unsuccessful (no N1 rise within 5 seconds of starter selection, or no ITT rise within 10 seconds after fuel flow indications) and time and circumstances permit:
5. Throttle - Off
Attempt further relights.
Note: Typically, >1200ft will be lost for each attempt.
If relight unsuccessful and time/ circumstances do not permit:
5. Carry out Emergency Shutdown.
Uncommanded Power Changes/ Uncommanded Propeller Feather
- Throttle - Mid-range, ITT <820 degrees C
- PMU - Off
- Is prop control regained?
Yes: Land ASAP. No: See cards.
PMU Failure
[PMU FAIL caption, with or without PMU STATUS caption]
Note: If PMU failure is accompanied by uncommanded power changes (other than the anticipated step change on PMU failure/ when it is turned off), carry out that drill instead.
- Throttle - Minimum practicable, ITT <820 degrees C.
- PMU Off
Chip Detector Warning
[Chip Caption]
- Throttle - Minimum practicable, avoid unnecessary throttle movement.
- Land ASAP.
Oil System Malfunction/ Oil Pressure Warning
[Oil pressure fluctuations or oil temperature out of limits, or OIL PX Caption]
