LANDING EMERGENCIES
If all attempts to restart the motor failed and an emergency landing is immi-
nent, select a suitable field and prepare for landing.
A suitable field should be chosen as early as possible so that maximum time
will be available to plan and execute the emergency landing. For emergency
landings on unprepared surfaces, use full flaps if possible. Land on the main
gear and hold the nose wheel o
ff
the ground as long as possible. If motor
power is available, before attempting an “o
ff
airport” landing, fly over the
landing area at a low but safe altitude to inspect the terrain for obstructions
and surface conditions.
NOTE:
Use of full (+2) flaps will reduce glide distance. Full flaps should not be
selected until landing is assured.
