In the event of an engine failure the PF will run the engine failure on takeoff checklist. Any problems above Vr and below 1,000’ AGL call the malfunction, maintain aircraft control, establish a pitch attitude for 65 knots, and run the engine failure in flight emergency checklist. Any problem above 1,000’ AGL, call the malfunction and run memory items and execute the engine failure in flight checklist. We Will attempt a restart if applicable and plan on landing back on runway (state runway) sterile cockpit procedures will be in place (state altitude) and we will hand off controls by using the three step positive positive exchange of controls, and passengers have been briefed on seat belts and emergency exits any questions?
