EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

3.1 INTRODUCTION
This section provides procedures for handling emergencies and critical
flight situations. Although emergencies caused by airplane, systems, or
engine malfunctions are extremely rare, the guidelines described in this
section should be considered and applied as necessary should an emer-
gency arise.
En-route emergencies caused by weather can be minimized or eliminated
by careful flight planning and good judgment when unexpected weather is
encountered.
In-flight mechanical problems will be extremely rare if proper preflight in-
spections and maintenance are practiced. Always perform a thorough walk-
around preflight inspection before any flight to ensure that no damage oc-
curred during the previous flight or while the airplane was on the ground.
Pay special attention to any oil/fluid leaks or fuel stains that could indicate
engine problems.
Aircraft emergencies are very dynamic events. Because of this, it is impossi-
ble to address every action a pilot might take to handle a situation. However,
four basic actions can be applied to any emergency:
Maintain Aircraft Control
Many minor aircraft emergencies turn into major ones when the pilot fails to
maintain aircraft control. Remember, do not panic and do not fixate on a par-
ticular problem. To avoid this, even in an emergency: aviate, navigate, and
communicate, in this order. Never let anything interfere with your control of
the airplane. Never stop flying.
Analyze the Situation
Once you are able to maintain control of the aircraft, assess the situation.
Look at the engine parameters. Listen to the engine. Determine what the
airplane is telling you.
Take Appropriate Action
In most situations, the procedures listed in this section will either correct the
aircraft problem or allow safe recovery of the aircraft. Follow them and use
good pilot judgment.
