SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES CESSNA
FAA APPROVED MODEL 182T
AMPLIFIED
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
The following Amplified Emergency Procedures elaborate upon
information contained in the Emergency Procedures Checklists
portion of this section. These procedures also include information
not readily adaptable to a checklist format, and material to which a
pilot could not be expected to refer in resolution of a specific
emergency. This information should be reviewed in detail prior to
flying the airplane, as well as reviewed on a regular basis to keep
pilot’s knowledge of procedures fresh.
ENGINE FAILURE
If an engine failure occurs during the takeoff roll, the most
important thing to do is stop the airplane on the remaining runway.
Those extra items on the checklist will provide added safety after a
failure of this type.
Prompt lowering of the nose to maintain airspeed and establish a
glide attitude is the first response to an engine failure after takeoff.
In most cases, the landing should be planned straight ahead with
only small changes in direction to avoid obstructions. Altitude and
airspeed are seldom sufficient to execute a 180° gliding turn
necessary to return to the runway. The checklist procedures assume
that adequate time exists to secure the fuel and ignition systems
prior to touchdown.
