Low Oil Pressure
• WARNING •
Prolonged use of high power settings after loss of oil pressure will lead to engine mechanical damage and total engine failure, which could be catastrophic.
• Note •
Full power should only be used following a loss of oil pressure when operating close to the ground and only for the time necessary to climb to an altitude permitting a safe landing or analysis of the low oil pressure indication to confirm oil pressure has actually been lost.
If low oil pressure is accompanied by normal oil temperature, it is possible that the oil pressure sensor, gage, or relief valve is malfunctioning. In any case, land as soon as practical and determine cause.
- Power Lever ………………………………….MINIMUM REQUIRED
- Land as soon as possible.
Propeller Governor Failure
Propeller RPM will not increase:
- Oil Pressure …………………………………………………………….. CHECK
- Land as soon as practical.
Propeller overspeeds or will not decrease:
- Power Lever ……………………………ADJUST (to keep RPM in limits)
- Airspeed…………………………………………………REDUCE to 90 KIAS
- Land as soon as practical.
Smoke and Fume Elimination
- Heater …………………………………………………………………………..OFF
- Air Vents………………………………………………..OPEN, FULL COLD
- Prepare to land as soon as possible.
If airflow is not sufficient to clear smoke or fumes from cabin: - Cabin Doors …………………………………………….PARTIALLY OPEN
Airspeed may need to be reduced to partially open door in flight.
Engine Fire In Flight
- Mixture ………………………………………………………………….. CUTOFF
- Fuel Pump……………………………………………………………………..OFF
- Fuel Selector………………………………………………………………….OFF
- Airflow Selector ………………………………………………………………OFF
- Power Lever …………………………………………………………………IDLE
- Ignition Switch ………………………………………………………………..OFF
- Cabin Doors ……………………………………………..PARTIALLY OPEN
Airspeed may need to be reduced to partially open door in flight. - Land as soon as possible.
Wing Fire In Flight
- Pitot Heat Switch …………………………………………………………..OFF
- Navigation Light Switch………………………………………………..OFF
- Strobe Light Switch………………………………………………………OFF
- If possible, side slip to keep flames away from fuel tank and cabin.
• Note •
Putting the airplane into a dive may blow out the fire. Do notexceed VNE during the dive. - Land as soon as possible
Cabin Fire In Flight
• WARNING •
If the airplane is in IMC conditions, turn ALT 1, ALT 2, and BAT 1 switches OFF. Power from battery 2 will keep the Primary Flight Display operational for approximately 30 minutes.
1. Bat-Alt Master Switches……………………………….OFF, AS REQ’D
• Note •
With Bat-Alt Master Switches OFF, engine will continue to run. However, no electrical power will be available.
2. Heater …………………………………………………………………………..OFF
3. Air Vents………………………………………………………………… CLOSED
4. Fire Extinguisher……………………………………………………ACTIVATE
• WARNING •
Halon gas used in the fire extinguisher can be toxic, especially in a closed area. After extinguishing fire, ventilate cabin by opening air vents and unlatching door (if required).
If airflow is not sufficient to clear smoke or fumes from cabin:
5. Cabin Doors ……………………………………………..PARTIALLY OPEN
Airspeed may need to be reduced to partially open door in flight.
Cabin Fire In Flight ( Part 2)
- When fire extinguished, Air Vents …….OPEN, FULL COLD
- Avionics Power Switch ………………………………………………..OFF
- All other switches ………………………………………………………..OFF
- Land as soon as possible.
If setting master switches off eliminated source of fire or fumes and airplane is in night, weather, or IFR conditions:
• WARNING •
If airplane is in day VFR conditions and turning off the master switches eliminated the fire situation, leave the master switches OFF. Do not attempt to isolate the source of the fire by checking each individual electrical component. - Bat-Alt Master Switches………………………………………………..ON
- Avionics Power Switch ………………………………………………….ON
- Activate required systems one at a time. Pause several seconds between activating each system to isolate malfunctioning system. Continue flight to earliest possible landing with malfunctioning system off. Activate only the minimum amount of equipment necessary to complete a safe landing.
Emergency Descent
- Power Lever ………………………………………………………………….IDLE
- Mixture …………………………………………………………AS REQUIRED
• Caution •
If significant turbulence is expected do not descend at
indicated airspeeds greater than VNO (178 KIAS) - Airspeed……………………………………………………….VNE (201 KIAS)
Inadvertent Spiral Dive During IMC Flight
- Power Lever ………………………………………………………………….IDLE
- Stop the spiral dive by using coordinated aileron and rudder control while referring to the attitude indicator and turn coordinator to level the wings.
- Cautiously apply elevator back pressure to bring airplane to level flight attitude.
- Trim for level flight.
- Set power as required.
- Use autopilot if functional otherwise keep hands off control yoke, use rudder to hold constant heading.
- Exit IMC conditions as soon as possible.
CAPS Deployment
- Airspeed……………………………………………MINIMUM POSSIBLE
Maximum demonstrated deployment speed is 133 KIAS. - Mixture (If time and altitude permit) …………………….CUTOFF
- Activation Handle Cover………………………………………REMOVE
- Activation Handle (Both Hands) ..PULL STRAIGHT DOWN
Pull the activation T-handle from its holder. Clasp both hands around the handle and pull straight down in a strong, steady, and continuous motion. Maintain maximum pull force until the rocket activates. Pull forces up to, or exceeding, 45 pounds may be required. Bending of the handle-housing mount is to be expected.
• WARNING •
Jerking or rapidly pulling the activation T-handle will greatly
increase the pull forces required to activate the rocket. Use a firm and steady pulling motion – a “chin-up” type pull
enhances successful activation
