GO-AROUND (Twin Engine) go_around

Increase engine speed to2625 RPM and apply full throttle
Reduce flap setting to15°
Trim airplane forclimb
Retract flapsas all obstacles are cleared, and a safe altitude and airspeed are obtained.
Do not retract landing gearif another landing approach is to be conducted.

NOTENOTE: If start is unsuccessful, turn magneto switches OFF, retard mixture to IDLE CUT-OFF, open throttle fully, and engage starter for several revolutions. Then repeat air start procedure.
SINGLE ENGINE APPROACH AND LANDING
Approach at110 MPH with excess altitude
Delay extension of landing gear untilwithin gliding distance of field
Avoid use of flaps untillanding is assured
Decrease speed below 105 MPH only iflanding is a certainty
GO-AROUND (SINGLE ENGINE)
If absolutely necessary, and speed is above 105 MPH, increase engine speed to 2625 RPM and applyfull throttle
Retract landing gearUP
Reduce flap setting to0° (if extended)
Climb at120 MPH (108 MPH with obstacles directly ahead)
Trim airplane forsingle-engine
