A it/ine 7 'ra in i na.; Cl-treez - Gle ;v./twine/it Airline Transport Prothssionals, EMERGENCY APPROACH AND LANDING DESCRIPTION: This maneuver is designed to land the aircraft as safely and as soon as possible in the event of an emergency. OBJECTIVE: The student should be confident to land the aircraft safely during an emergency using accuracy, sound judgment, planning, and good technique. Causes: Any situation which warrants a forced landing i.e. engine failure, electrical failure, partial power loss, system/equipment malfunction, etc... NTSB factors that may interfere with a pilot's ability to act promptly and properly when faced with an emergency: 1. Reluctance to accept emergency situation: Do not allow the emergency to paralyze your decision-making; maintain flying speed and choose a suitable landing field. 2. Desire to save airplane: There may be times that the airplane will have to be sacrificed so that you and your passengers can walk away. 3. Undo concern about getting hurt: Fear is a vital part of self-preservation, but it must not lead to panic. Maintain your composure at all times. Airspeed and Aircraft Control The first job is to maintain control of the aircraft. Always trim for best glide speed, configure the aircraft for minimum drag configuration i.e. flaps up, gear up. Since power is no longer available airspeed must be controlled with pitch only. Best Field Picking a suitable forced landing field: Always be on the lookout. Ideal field is an airport or a hard packed, long, smooth field with no high obstacles at the approach end. Cultivated fields are acceptable if the landing is made parallel to the furrows. Private, paved or unpaved, landing fields. Roads should be used only as a last resort, there are usually power or phone lines which you may not be aware of, as well as auto traffic. The field must be within gliding distance. Determine wind direction: Ways to determine the direction of the wind are by looking at trees, smoke, dust, and nearby lakes. Always try to land into the wind, this allows for a lower ground speed and a shorter ground roll. Sometimes it may not be preferable to land into the wind such as: a. Insufficient altitude to attempt to maneuver. b. Ground obstacles may shorten landing field. 71

A trittn.. Training C'arecr riot-eh-wine/2r Airline Transport Protessionals, EMERGENCY APPROACH AND LANDING (Cont.) c. Distance from the field. d. The best available field may be on a hill and at such an angle to the wind that a downwind landing uphill would be preferable and safer. Flying the approach: Head straight to the field. If altitude permits go through engine restart emergency checklist (if engine failure occurs). Utilize any combination of normal gliding maneuvers. If over a field and altitude must be lost, execute spirals over the field down to pattern altitude. Fly the emergency approach as normal as possible since this is most familiar. At the key position determine your touchdown spot and select the most appropriate pattern to reach the spot. Landing gear up or down: a. If field has stumps, rocks, or other large obstacles, the gear down will better protect you and your passengers. b. If the field is soft, wet, or snow covered a gear up landing will normally be safer to eliminate the possibility of the airplane nosing over as a result of the wheels digging in. Altitude is the controlling factor in the accomplishment of a successful landing. Techniques to use to compensate for overshooting or undershooting are: a. Attempt to fly a base to final approach. b. For overshooting: Lengthen base leg, if landing area permits. Widen base leg by heading slightly away from the field. Extend flaps. Use a forward slip on final. For undershooting: Shorten base leg. Start turn toward the field to shorten the final approach. Delay the use of flaps. Do not raise nose to extend glide. If equipped with a controllable prop, adjust prop control to high pitch, low RPM to extend glide. If engine is lost on take off and below a safe maneuvering altitude, do not attempt a 180 turn to land on the departure end of the runway, it is better to land straight ahead. Checklist If above 1000' AGL with sufficient altitude execute the emergency checklist. Should commit to memory important items such as; restart procedure if engine failure occurs. 72

A ir/ine Tra tt".1" L.V.v-eqopiiienr Airline Transport Professionals, inc. EMERGENCY APPROACH AND LANDING (Cont.) When landing assured execute landing without power checklist especially make sure that any item that may cause a fire is secured. i.e. ignition, fuel, master switches. If altitude permits always verify tour emergency procedures with an actual written checklist. If below 1000' AGL and/or insufficient altitude concentrate on performing the landing. Declare an Emergency Dial in 121.5 or appropriate ATC facility on the radio. Report an emergency ("Mayday, mayday") state your position, type of aircraft and number of people on board, problem, and intentions. Squawk 7700 on the transponder. Engine Shutdown It is important to execute the "In-flight engine failure checklist" so as to make sure that all procedures are accomplished so that a fire will not occur once a landing is made. Go through a flow, start with the fuel then work your way to the electrical switches. These procedures are done so that if you incur an impact upon landing the chances of a fire occurring are minimal.

fr Airline Transport Professionals, EMERGENCY PROCEDURES- ENGINE FAILURE A Traininiz C *aroer De veleym Ient DESCRIPTION: These procedures emphasize the various factors leading to and recovery from engine failures during takeoff, after lift-off, and enroute. OBJECTIVE: After an engine failure, the pilot will know what altitude, airspeed, and airplane configuration must exist to permit the flight to continue or to land safely while maintaining directional control. The student will use the appropriate emergency checklist to prevent overlooking steps or performing incorrect procedures. NOTE: THE ENGINE FAILURE DURING TAKEOFF, BEFORE VMC WILL BE PERFORMED PRIOR TO THE AIRCRAFT REACHING AIRSPEED OF 1/2 VMC OR 28 KNOTS FOR THE PA-44. SINCE THIS SPEED IS NOT DEPICTED ON THE AIRSPEED INDICATOR, THE EXCERSISE SHOULD BE DONE BEFORE THE AIRSPEED INDICATOR BEGINS TO MOVE. During takeoff, before Vmc: Utilizes the prescribed emergency procedure Promptly and smoothly closes the throttle when engine failure occurs. (before 1/2 Vmc.) Maintains directional control and remains on runway centerline while applying brakes as necessary. After lift-off: Promptly recognizes engine failure. Maintains directional control and utilizes the prescribed emergency procedure. Identifies, verifies, and feathers the propeller of the failed engine while continuing to climb. Reduces drag by raising the gear and flaps, if utilized, when a positive rate of climb is established. Promptly and smoothly accelerates to Vyse. Follows the prescribed "In-flight engine failure checklist". Establishes a bank toward the operating engine for best performance. Troubleshoots the engine malfunction (If time and altitude permits). Monitors the operating engine and updates decisions based on feedback. Returns for landing. Enroute: Promptly recognizes engine failure. Pitches for Vyse. Maintains directional control and utilizes the prescribed emergency procedure. Identifies and verifies the failed engine. Determines if it is feasible to restart the affected engine; if so follows the appropriate restart procedure. Otherwise, feathers the propeller. 74

Protects the good engine by applying appropriate manifold pressure and RPM on the operating engine (Seminole). If on a flight plan or flight following, notifies ATC of engine failure and asks for an appropriate landing site where repairs can be made (landing site based on aircraft performance). If not in contact with ATC, fly to a known airport where repairs can be made or contact ATC for possible assistance (landing site based on aircraft performance). Maintains sufficient altitude to continue flight to the point of intended landing.
