Emergency Procedures Flashcards
ENG FIRE L/R
*1. Confirm Fire
If fire exists:
2. Emergency Shutdown on Ground Checklist - Perform
In flight:
3. Emergency Shutdown Checklist - Perform
Illumination of the ENG FIRE warning light
is usually the first indication of engine
compartment fire.
ABORTED TAKEOFF
*1. POWER levers — IDLE/REVERSE as required.
*2. Brakes — As required.
Prior to departing the prepared surface:
*3. CONDITION levers — FUEL CUTOFF (PM).
*4. PROP levers — FEATHER (PM).
After aircraft stops:
*5. Firewall valves — CLOSED.
*6. Engine fire extinguisher — As required (PM).
*7. AUX BATT switch — OFF.
*8. Gangbar — Off.
NOTE - The decision to abort or to continue the takeoff rests with the Aircraft
Commander. The takeoff abort maneuver is made by the pilot flying, who
announces, “ABORT” and executes the abort procedure.
WARNING - In the event of a malfunction affecting the ability to control engine power,
bringing the POWER levers to IDLE prior to cutting off fuel may accentuate
yaw and result in departure from the runway. In this case, consideration
should be given to moving both CONDITION levers to FUEL CUTOFF
prior to reducing POWER levers.
WARNING - Single-engine reversing must be applied cautiously or loss of directional
control may result. Use extreme caution if takeoff surface is not hard and
dry.
ENGINE FAILURE AFTER TAKEOFF
If an engine failure occurs after takeoff, proceed as follows:
*1. Power — Maximum allowable.
*2. Gear — UP.
*3. Airspeed — Accelerate to Vxse or Vyse.
†*4. Propeller (inoperative engine) — Confirm auto feather or FEATHER (PM).
*5. Flaps — UP.
*6. Emergency Shutdown Checklist — Perform.
Note
* Maximum climb performance can be achieved by raising the failed engine 3 to 5° up and displacing the slip skid indicator one-half to three-quarters of a ball width toward the good engine.
* If the auto feather system is being used, retarding the POWER lever below approximately 90 percent N1 before the feathering sequence is complete will deactivate the auto feather circuit and prevent automatic feathering.
The Emergency Shutdown Checklist should be completed at Aircraft Commander discretion, or when:
“CREOLE”
- CHIP DET light illuminates.
- Runaway torque increase in flight (not responsive to POWER lever movement).
- Engine fire in flight.
- Oil pressure low.
- Leaking oil/fuel.
- Engine failure in flight.
Engine Fire
*1. Confirm fire.
If fire exists:
*2. Emergency Shutdown Checklist — Perform.
Illumination of the FIRE warning light is usually the first indication of an engine compartment fire. Confirm, if possible, that fire actually exists by checking engine instruments and nacelles. Even if no secondary indications are observed, consideration should be given to performing the Emergency Shutdown Checklist in shutdown of the affected engine.
Cockpit/Cabin Fire/Smoke/Fumes (Electrical Source Suspected)
*1. Oxygen masks — Don/deploy (crew 100 percent) (both/TA).
Cockpit/Cabin Fire/Smoke/Fumes (Environmental Source Suspected)
*1. Oxygen masks — Don/deploy (crew 100 percent) (both/TA).
Fuselage Fire
*1. Oxygen masks — Don/deploy (crew 100 percent) (both/TA).
Primary Governor Failure/Malfunction
If propeller rpm is out of the normal governing range, proceed as follows:
*1. PROP lever – Attempt to adjust to normal operating range.
If normal rpm limits are restored, continue operation. If normal governing range cannot be maintained, as soon as practicable accomplish the following:
†2. POWER lever (affected engine) — Idle.
†3. PROP lever — FEATHER (PM).
If propeller fails to feather:
†4. CONDITION lever — FUEL CUTOFF (PM).
5.AUTO FEATHER — Hold to TEST until propeller feathers (PM).
6.Emergency shutdown checklist — As required.
Note
If the propeller feathers, consider leaving engine running to provide generator power.
Explosive Decompression
*1. Oxygen masks — Don/deploy (crew 100 percent) (both/TA) (if above 10,000 feet).
*2. Descend — As required.
3.MIC switch — As required (both).
4.Headset — As required (both).
5.AUDIO SPEAKER switch — OFF (both).
Emergency Descent Procedure
*1. POWER levers — IDLE.
*2. PROP levers — Full forward.
*3. FLAPS — As required.
*4. Landing gear — As required.
*5. Airspeed — As required.
Spin Recovery
*1. POWER levers — IDLE.
*2. Ailerons — Neutralize.
*3. Control Wheel — Rapidly move forward.
*4. Rudder — Full deflection opposite the direction of the spin.
*5. Rudder — Neutralize once rotation has stopped.
*6. Execute a smooth pullout.
The windshear escape procedure should be initiated if unexpected, sustained deviations from target
conditions in excess of the following occur:
a. ±15 KIAS.
b. ±500 fpm of vertical speed.
c. ±5° of pitch attitude.
d. ±1 dot glideslope displacement (approach only).
e. Unusual power required on approach.
Windshear Escape Procedure
*1. Autopilot — Disengage.
*2. Power — Maximum.
*3. Wings — Level.
*4. PROP Levers — Full Forward.
*5. Pitch — Rotate toward 15 degrees up.
*6. Configuration — Do not change.
Steps *1 through *3 should be completed simultaneously in an expeditious and smooth manner. Delay could result in terrain impact; abrupt control movements may result in over control/loss of control of aircraft and vertigo.
WARNING- * Move the POWER levers aggressively to the forward stops. PM should
maintain POWER lever position. The additional performance gained by exceeding engine limits may give the margin needed for survival.
* Do not stop or delay for analysis. Rotate smoothly at 3° per second until reaching 15° nose up. Stop rotation if stall warning sounds or initial buffet occurs.
* If ground contact is imminent, rotate past the 15° target attitude and increase pitch to the lower limit of the stall warning threshold. Use the upper limit for the pitch attitude until terrain clearance is ensured. The stall warning
provides 4 to 12 knots of stall protection.
* Do not change aircraft configuration until terrain clearance is ensured. PM shall call out continuous radio altitude trend (e.g., “CLIMBING . . . 200 FEET . . . DESCENDING . . . 150 FEET . . .”).
Note
Advise ATC of any windshear encounter.
Terrain Warning
*1. Autopilot — Disengage.
*2. Power — Maximum.
*3. Wings — Level.
*4. PROP Levers — Full Forward.
*5. Pitch — Rotate toward 15 degrees up.
*6. Configuration — Do not change.
If VMC:
7. Evaluate flight path with respect to terrain — Adjust as required.
