Answer 16

1) Vmc is 81 MPH, 2) power reduce to maintain control, 3) carry out engine failure in flight procedures

Question 17

PROPELLER OVERSPEED

Answer 17

1) throttle retard, 2) airspeed best ROC, 3) propeller low rpm, 4) throttle slowly increase until governor is engaged. 5) slowly increase throttle and propeller to desired power setting, 6) continue flight at reduced speed and power, 7) land asap.
Note: if throttle reduced to 15-20” at speeds of 105mph, prop May OVERSPEED again, if this occurs follow above checklist.

Question 18

VACUUM SYSTEM FAILURES

Answer 18

If suction is below 4.5”
1) propellers increase to 2700 rpm, 2) altitude - descend to maintain 4.5”, 3) use turn coordinator to monitor HI performance

Question 19

LANDING GEAR UNSAFE - WARNINGS

Answer 19

Light will illuminate and gear horn sounds when:
1) the gear is not down and locked, 2) if throttles are at low settings (below 14”) or 3) if wing flaps are in 2 and 3 notch positions.
Red light indicates gear in transit.
RECYCLE GEAR IF CONDITION CONTINUES

IF UNABLE TO RESTORE ALTERNATOR
1) turn off all avionics except nav/comm and xponder, 2) electrical windshield off to maintain 60amps, 3) if icing conditions terminate flight, 4) battery may be depleted - gear manual extend

Question 28

DEPLETED BATTERY

(IF BATTERY IS DEPLETED IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO GET THE ALTERNATOR BACK ON LINE BY:

Answer 28

1) alternator CB check/reset, 2) remove heavy loads, 3) operative alternator on, 4) master switch off, wait a short period, 5) master on, 6) ammeter output check, 7) if no output noted start step 4 over and wait longer.
Once power is restored: electrics as required below 50amps

Question 29

LOSS OF ALTERNATOR OUTPUT

Answer 29

In case of loss of output from one alternator:
