Engine-Failure during Take-Off
In the case of an engine-failure, or when not enough power is available, perform
the following procedure:
1.
If RWY is long enough, land straight ahead.
2.
If RWY is NOT LONG enough, the pilot has to decide how to proceed,
depending on altitude, position and terrain.
3.
Air-speed
60 kts / 110 km/h
4.
Approach procedure
DEFINE
5.
Fuel-shut-off-valve
CLOSE
6.
Ignition
OFF
Depending on the situation, it is possible to increase the glide-ratio by
setting the propeller to the feathered position:
7.
left Propeller-switch
MANU
8.
right Propeller-switch
FEATHER
Caution: Final position is
reached not until 90 sec!
In either case:
9.
Master-switch
OFF
Caution:
If possible, turn OFF the master-switch just before landing
The master-switch also turns OFF the electric trim, propeller
speed control and COM equipment.
Caution:
If the engine is not running, the additional drag is greater for
a windmilling propeller than for a feathered propeller. After
an engine-failure it is recommended to switch the propeller to
FEATHER.
