EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

 

 

 

MAULE

 

M-7-260C

 

 

 
 
4.13  SMOKE AND FUME ELIMINATION: 
 

1. 

Cabin Heat Knob - In 

2. 

Cabin Air Knob - In 

3. 

Upper Air Vents - Open 

4. 

Pilot's Window - Open (below 104K (120 mph) 

 
4.14  STRUCTURAL DAMAGE: 
 

1. 

On Takeoff - Abort 

2. 

In flight, maintain controllable airspeed 

3. 

Climb to safe stall recovery altitude 

4. 

Notify appropriate controlling agency, if appropriate. 

5. 

Determine control difficulty airspeed by slowing down while flying straight ahead.  
Do not allow the aircraft to stall. 

6. 

Make full stop landing using 4 to 9K (5 to 10 mph) above difficulty airspeed or above 
normal approach speed, whichever is higher. 

 
4.15  RECOVERY FROM INADVERTENT SPINS: 
 

Intentional spins are prohibited.  If the aircraft inadvertently enters a spin, simultaneously ap-
ply full rudder opposite to the direction of rotation and full nose down elevator with ailerons 
neutral and reduce power to idle.  When the rotation stops, neutralize the rudder and eleva-
tor, and ease back on the control wheel as required to smoothly regain level flight.  Wing 
flaps should be retracted to avoid exceeding the maximum flap speeds during recovery. 

 
4.16  ALTERNATOR FAILURE:  
 

Alternator output should be monitored by reference to the ammeter located on the right side 
of the engine instrument cluster.  Should the ammeter indicate a minus deflection when en-
gine RPM is above 900 and/or red "ALTERNATOR OFF WARNING" light is illuminated, push 
ALT switch OFF then ON.  Repeat two times as necessary to reset.  If system will not reset, 
reduce the electrical load as much as possible, land as soon as practical and investigate the 
electrical system malfunction before further flight.
