Boldface Flashcards
What is the correct ejection posture?
- Buttocks well back in seat.
- Back pressed firmly against the seat back and sitting as straight as possible.
- Press head firmly against headpad.
- Eyes closed.
- Legs forward with feet touching the rudder pedals to ensure optimum thigh support.
- Grip the ejection handle with the preferred hand. Use the other hand to grip the wrist of the pulling hand to prevent flailing at high speeds.

What is the warning associated with gliding checks?
Hint: Same as warning for EFATO
Delaying ejection in a futile attempt to:
1. Restart the engine
2. Recover controlled flight
3. Reach an aerodrome
…may place the aircraft in marginal conditions for safe ejection. Eject if unable to carry out a forced landing safely.

What is the warning associated with a fuel imbalance?
The aircraft will tend to roll towards the heavy wing and aileron deflection will increase with increasing fuel imbalance and with reducing speed.
Do not reduce speed below that which requires half aileron deflection.
Perform a handling check prior to landing to determine safe approach and landing speeds.
