- Cowl Flap (affected engine) - Open
- Mixture (affected engine) - Idle Cutoff
- Propeller (affected engine) - Feather
- Throttle (affected engine) - Idle
- Heater - Off
- Defroster - Off
- Airspeed - Increase if fire is not extinguished, increase glide speed to find an airspeed which will provide an incombustible mixture
- Forced Landing - Execute
Electrical Fire in Flight
- Master Switch - Off
- Vents/Cabin Air/Heat - Closed
- Fire Extinguisher - Activate (if available)
If fire appears out and electrical power is necessary for further continuance of flight:
- Vents/Cabin Air/Heat - Open
- All Electrical Switches (except magnetos) - Off inc. individual avionics
- Avionics Master Switch - Off
- Master Switch - Off
- Circuit Breakers - CHECK for faulty circuit, do not reset
- Avionics Master Switch - On
- Radio/Electrical Switches - On one at a time, with delay after each until short circuit is localized
Cabin Fire
- Master Switch - Off
- Vents/Cabin Air/Heat - Closed
- Fire Extinguisher - Activate (if available)
If fire appears out:
- Vents/Cabin Air/Heat - Open
- Land the plane as soon as possible
Wing Fire
- All Exterior Light Switches - Off
- Pitot Heat Switch - Off
NOTE: Perform a sideslip to keep the flames away from the fuel tank and cabin, and land as soon as possible
Electrical Failure Both Overvoltage Lights Illuminate
- All Electrical Switches (except Master Switch) - Off
- Avionics Master Switch - Off
- Alternators - Off
a. Individual Alternator - On the Off one at a time
b. Alternator - Turn On the alternator that showed the LEAST output - Avionics Master Switch - On
- Electrical Switches - On one at a time, do not exceed 50 amperes
- Flight - TERMINATE as soon as practical
If both alternators show approximately equal output (less than 50 amperes)
- Alternators - On
- Electrical Equipment - On
- Resume Normal Ops
One Overvoltage Light Illumantes
- All Electrical Switches (except Master Switch) - Off
- Avionics Master Switch - Off
- Malfunctioning Alternator - Off
- Malfunctioning Alternator - On then Off to confirm output is excessive
- Electrical Load - REDUCE
- Flight - TERMINATE as soon as practical
Alternator Failure
- Electrical Load - REDUCE, remain below 50 amperes
- Circuit Breakers - Check and Reset
- INOP Alternator - Off then On
If step 3 fails to restore output:
- Electrical Load - Below 50 amperes
- Flight - TERMINATE as soon as practical
Vacuum System Failure
- Engine RPM - Increase to 2700
- Altitude - Descend until 4.5” Hg is possible
- Flight Instruments - CROSSCHECK with Turn Coordinator
Propeller Overspeed
- Throttle - Idle
- Airspeed - 105 mph
- Propeller - Reduce to a low setting
- Throttle - Increase slowly until governor engages
- Propeller - Increase slowly with throttle to desired setting
- Flight - Terminate as soon as practical, maintain reduced power and Airspeed
NOTE: If the throttle is retarded below 15-20” Hg at speed above 105 mph, the propeller may overspeed again upon reapplying power. If this occurs, follow the same procedure to regain propeller control.
