3 Emergency Procedures
Emergencies caused by airplane or engine malfunctions are rare if proper preflight inspections and
maintenance are practiced. Enroute weather emergencies can be minimized or eliminated by cardul
flight planning and good judgment when unexpected weather is encountered. Should an
emergency arise, the basic guidelines described in this section are to be applied as necessary to
alleviate the problem.
The procedures contained herein are not intended to constitute basic flight instruction but are
intended to supplement those principles relating to emergencies that each pilot acquires in the
process of learning to fly and obtaining FAA pilot certification.
Checklists are provided to assist a pilot where it would be reasonable for a pilot to refer to one.
Where reference to a checklist would be impractical, or where the material is not amenable to a
checklist form, or where additional material is helpful, amplified procedures are provided following
the checklist section.
