1. Maintain aircraft control—Small emergencies can quickly escalate if the pilot is
distracted attempting to troubleshoot the problem. Always maintain visual contact
with the aircraft during an emergency to reduce the likelihood of losing orientation.
2. Analyze the situation—Once the aircraft is stabilized, begin to assess the cause of the
emergency if practical.
3. Take appropriate action—In many cases, the appropriate action will be to land the
aircraft as soon as possible. Always consider the safety of yourself and others before
attempting to save the aircraft in an emergency.
