ENGINE FAILURE
If an engine failure occurs during the takeoff run, 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 and feathering of the propeller 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.
After an engine failure in flight, the best glide speed as shown in Figure 3-1
should be established as quickly as possible. While gliding toward a
suitable landing area, an effort should be made to identify the cause of the
failure. If time permits, an engine restart should be attempted as shown in
the checklist. If the engine cannot be restarted, a forced landing without
power must be completed.
