Q

One Overvoltage Light Illumantes

A
  1. All Electrical Switches (except Master Switch) - Off
  2. Avionics Master Switch - Off
  3. Malfunctioning Alternator - Off
  4. Malfunctioning Alternator - On then Off to confirm output is excessive
  5. Electrical Load - REDUCE
  6. Flight - TERMINATE as soon as practical
17
Q

Alternator Failure

A
  1. Electrical Load - REDUCE, remain below 50 amperes
  2. Circuit Breakers - Check and Reset
  3. INOP Alternator - Off then On

If step 3 fails to restore output:

  1. Electrical Load - Below 50 amperes
  2. Flight - TERMINATE as soon as practical
18
Q

Vacuum System Failure

A
  1. Engine RPM - Increase to 2700
  2. Altitude - Descend until 4.5” Hg is possible
  3. Flight Instruments - CROSSCHECK with Turn Coordinator
19
Q

Propeller Overspeed

A
  1. Throttle - Idle
  2. Airspeed - 105 mph
  3. Propeller - Reduce to a low setting
  4. Throttle - Increase slowly until governor engages
  5. Propeller - Increase slowly with throttle to desired setting
  6. 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.
