NOTE Crew briefing COMPLETED:
To prevent starter damage, limit starter cranking to 30 second periods. If the engine does not start I will do the flying, you monitor all instruments
within that time, allow a cooling period of several minutes before engaging starter again. Do not engage and report malfunctions loud and clear
the starter immediately after releasing it. This practice may damage the starter mechanism. On my command you read the checklist, do the RT,
set the transponder, tune and identify beacons.

NOTE
For all normal operations using an external power source, the battery master switch should be OFF, but
it is possible to use the ship’s battery in parallel by turning the battery master switch ON. This will give
longer cranking capabilities, but will not increase amperage.
CAUTION
Care should be exercised because if the ship’s battery has been depleted, the external power supply
can be reduced to the level of the ship’s battery. This can be tested by turning the battery master switch
ON momentarily while the starter is engaged. If cranking speed increases, the ship’s battery is at a
higher level
than the external power supply.

LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE ELECTRICAL FAILURES

Land as soon as possible and investigate cause.
Prepare for power off landing. ALT ANNUNCIATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED
Maintain altitude until such time as a dead stick landing can be accomplished. Don't change power AMMETER CHECK to verify alternator failure
settings unnecessarily, as this may hasten complete power loss.
If ammeter show zero:
ALT switch OFF
HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE Reduce electrical loads to minimum
ALT circuit breaker CHECK and RESET as required
Land at nearest airport and investigate the problem. ALT switch ON
Prepare for power off landing.
If power not restored:
LOSS OF FUEL PRESSURE ALT Switch OFF
Auxiliary Fuel Pump UNLATCH, HI
Fuel selector CHECK on full tank If alternator output cannot be restored, reduce electrical loads and land as soon as practical. The

OFF. The lack of a fuel flow indication, while in the HI auxiliary fuel pump position, could indicate a leak
in the fuel system or fuel exhaustion.
CAUTION
DO NOT actuate the auxiliary fuel pump unless vapor suppression is required (LO position) or the
engine-driven fuel pump fails (HI position). The auxiliary pump has no standby function. Actuation of the
HI switch position when the engine is operating normal may cause engine roughness and/or power loss.
CAUTION
If the auxiliary fuel pump switch or primer switch fails causing the auxiliary fuel pump to be activated in
the HI mode while the engine driven fuel pump is operating normally, engine roughness and/or power
loss could occur. Should this condition exist, pull out the fuel pump pull-type circuit breaker, if so
equipped, or shut off the master switch.

If power is not restored, proceed with power off landing procedure.

 Emergencies - GENERAL

EMERGENCY LANDING GEAR EXTENSION

EXTRA IN CASE OF TRAINING ONLY: PULL “LANDING GEAR PUMP” circuit breaker

Prior to emergency extension procedure:

Master Switch CHECK ON
Circuit Breakers CHECK
Panel lights OFF (in daytime)
Gear indicator bulbs CHECK
If landing gear does not check down and locked:
Airspeed BELOW 88 KIAS
Landing Gear Selector DOWN
If gear has still failed to lock down:
Emergency lever MOVE to “EMERGENCY DOWN”
If gear has still failed to lock down:
Yaw airplane abruptly from side to side with the rudder.
If the nose gear will not lock down using above procedure
Speed SLOW to lowest safe speed attainable using
Lowest power setting required for safe operation
and accomplish the following:
Landing gear selector switch gear DOWN position
If gear does not check down:
Gear Selector Switch CYCLE UP then DOWN

IN CASE OF TRAINING ONLY: RESET “LANDING GEAR PUMP” circuit breaker

EMERGENCY DESCENT
NOTE
A malfunction of the oxygen system requires an immediate descent to an altitude at or below 12.500 ft.
NOTE
Time of useful consciousness at 20,000ft is approximately 10 minutes
A malfunction of the oxygen system requires an immediate descent to an altitude at or below 12.500 ft.

Throttle CLOSED
Propeller Control FULL INCREASE
Mixture AS REQUIRED to maintain smooth operation
Landing Gear DOWN (103 KIAS maximum)

SPIN RECOVERY
Rudder FULL OPPOSITE to DIRECTION of ROTATION
Control Wheel FULL FORWARD while NEUTRALIZING AILERONS
Throttle IDLE
Rudder (when rotation stops) NEUTRAL
Control Wheel AS REQUIRED to smoothly regain level flight attitude

OPEN DOOR
If both upper and side latches are open, the door will trail slightly open and airspeeds will be reduced
slightly
To close door in flight:
Speed SLOW to 87 KIAS
Cabin vents CLOSE
Storm window OPEN
If upper latch is open LATCH
If side latch is open PULL on armrest while moving latch handle to latched
position
If both latches are open Latch side latch
Then top latch
