13C - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
INTRODUCTION
This section provides checklists and amplified procedures for coping with
emergencies that may occur. Emergencies caused by aircraft or powerplant
malfunctions are rare if proper pre-flight inspections and maintenance are
performed. Emergencies caused by extreme weather situations can be
minimized or eliminated by good judgment and proper pre-flight planning.
However, should an emergency arise the basic guidelines described in this
section should be considered and applied as necessary to resolve the problem.
In any emergency – fly the airplane first- maintain control.
