If development is significant shut down engine
Set maximum power and climb at Vy to a power off landing position
Perform engine fire during flight procedure
ENGINE FAILURE AT VARIOUS POSITIONS IN THE CIRCUIT
Take-off leg: Do as briefed, land ahead, do not turn back
Cross-Wind leg: Turn final towards a suitable field, do not turn back
Downwind before midfield: Do not go below Vglide, accept off-runway landing, turn base after midfield
Base and Final: Proceed with an off-runway or landing, avoid obstacles
ENGINE FIRE IN THE CIRCUIT
Use the remaining engine power to position for a poweroff landing

Turn away from unsuitable areas” or alternatively start a shallow climb to gain altitude.
Throttle Lever - IDLE
Trim to VGLIDE (70 KIAS). Maintain altitude until VGLIDE is reached.
Find suitable field - if not already on downwind, turn base according to wind.
If time permits, perform the following:
Transmit e.g.: “MAYDAY-MAYDAY- MAYDAY, Roskilde TWR, OY-FFF, engine failure, attempting field landing, position 3 miles SW of Ringsted, SIRA, 2 persons on board”

OIL SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS
Rising Oil Pressure
- Divert or perform a precautionary landing
Rising oil temperature and dropping oil pressure
1. THROTTLE LEVER…… IDLE
2. OIL TEMP…… CHECK within limits

If oil pressure does not increase and temperature remains within limits:
4. OIL AND CT…… CHECK
5. Land as soon as practical
If oil pressure does not increase and temperature exceeds limits
4. ENGINE…… SECURE
5. Land as soon as possible

- SECURE ENGINE and FORCED LANDING
FLAP FAILURE
Final speed… 75 KIAS
Vth… 70 KIAS
Be aware of increased landing distance
Consider straight-in approach
STUCK CONTROLS
Control attitude… With power, Trim and Configuration
Perform straight-in approach and allow for much increased landing distance
In case of a stuck rudder or aileron, these may to some degree substitute each other.
The most critical loss will be the rudder. Allow for much increased turning radius.
Consider straight-in approach
TRIM RUNAWAY
PITCH TRIM Switch… DISC
Do not turn the switch back to ON!
Consider a flapless landing and straight-in approach
COMMUNICATION FAILURE: VFR
