RICH [ ] Ignition switch ......................... BOTH — CONFIRM SWITCH IS ON [ ] Fuel pump .............................. ON PER POH RESTART TECHNIQUE [ ] Throttle ....................... ADVANCE TO CHECK FOR ENGINE RESPONSE [ ] Restart attempt — if altitude and conditions allow ... FOLLOW POH ENGINE RESTART IN FLIGHT PROCEDURE [ ] Mayday — transmit on 121.5 MHz ... AIRCRAFT TYPE, POSITION, ALTITUDE, SOULS ON BOARD, INTENTIONS [ ] Transponder ............................................. SQUAWK 7700 [ ] If engine does not restart and altitude is insufficient for safe forced landing — consider CAPS deployment ... EVALUATE CAPS PER POH CRITERIA ** GO TO: If proceeding to forced landing — see Forced Landing (Power-Off) checklist ENGINE FIRE IN FLIGHT [EMERGENCY] ---------------------------------- [ ] Mixture [MEMORY] ........................................ IDLE CUTOFF [ ] Fuel pump [MEMORY] .............................................. OFF [ ] Throttle [MEMORY] ............................................ CLOSED [ ] Ignition switch [MEMORY] ........................................ OFF [ ] Fuel selector [MEMORY] .......................................... OFF [ ] Master switch — electrical systems off to reduce ignition sources ... OFF [ ] Airspeed — increase to assist fire extinguishing if altitude permits; do not exceed structural limits ... INCREASE TO ASSIST; WITHIN SPEED LIMITS PER POH [ ] If fire continues — CAPS deployment; do not delay ... CAPS PER POH; MAYDAY TRANSMITTED [ ] If fire extinguishes — execute forced landing; do not attempt restart ... FORCED LANDING PROCEDURE ENGINE FIRE ON GROUND [EMERGENCY] ---------------------------------- [ ] Throttle [MEMORY] ............................................ CLOSED [ ] Mixture [MEMORY] ........................................ IDLE CUTOFF [ ] Fuel pump [MEMORY] .............................................. OFF [ ] Ignition switch [MEMORY] ........................................ OFF [ ] Master switch [MEMORY] .......................................... OFF [ ] Evacuate the aircraft — all occupants exit immediately ... EVACUATE UPWIND; MOVE WELL CLEAR OF AIRCRAFT [ ] Fire extinguisher — use available extinguisher if safe to do so without entering fire zone ... APPLIED IF SAFE [ ] Emergency services ........... CALL 911 OR AIRPORT EMERGENCY SERVICES ELECTRICAL FIRE / SMOKE IN COCKPIT [EMERGENCY] ----------------------------------------------- [ ] Master switch — battery and alternator [MEMORY] ................. OFF [ ] Avionics master [MEMORY] ........................................ OFF [ ] All air vents and cabin heat ducts [MEMORY] ... CLOSE to reduce airflow feeding fire or spreading smoke [ ] Extinguisher — if available and accessible, discharge toward fire source ... APPLIED [ ] If smoke clears — identify the faulty circuit before restoring power; restore avionics master cautiously one item at a time ... ISOLATE FAULT BEFORE RESTORING [ ] If smoke persists — declare emergency; land as soon as possible ... MAYDAY; DIVERT TO NEAREST AIRPORT [ ] Window or door — open slightly for ventilation if smoke impairs visibility and conditions permit ... OPENED AS NEEDED FOR VISIBILITY LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE [EMERGENCY] --------------------------------- [ ] Throttle — reduce power immediately to lower engine load [MEMORY] ... REDUCED; MINIMUM POWER NEEDED FOR FLIGHT [ ] Landing site — identify nearest suitable airport or field; begin divert [MEMORY] ... DIVERTING TO NEAREST AIRPORT [ ] Oil temperature — monitor for rapid rise indicating oil exhaustion ... MONITORING; IF RISING RAPIDLY PREPARE FOR ENGINE SEIZURE [ ] Mayday — transmit if engine failure appears imminent ... MAYDAY; POSITION AND INTENTIONS GIVEN [ ] If oil pressure drops to zero and engine roughness develops — prepare for engine failure; consider CAPS if altitude and conditions warrant ... ENGINE FAILURE PROCEDURE INITIATED ** GO TO: If engine stops — see Engine Failure in Flight checklist FORCED LANDING (POWER-OFF) [EMERGENCY] --------------------------------------- [ ] Airspeed — establish and hold best glide speed [MEMORY] ... BEST GLIDE PER POH; TRIM AS NEEDED [ ] Landing site — select largest, flattest field aligned with wind if possible; commit to it early [MEMORY] ... SITE COMMITTED; MANEUVERING TOWARD IT [ ] Mayday — transmit on 121.5 MHz; squawk 7700 ... TRANSMITTED; 7700 SET [ ] Fuel selector ................................................... OFF [ ] Mixture ................................................. IDLE CUTOFF [ ] Ignition switch ................................................. OFF [ ] Master switch — off before touchdown to eliminate electrical ignition sources ... OFF BEFORE TOUCHDOWN [ ] Seat belts and shoulder harnesses — all occupants cinch tight; advise to brace ... TIGHTENED; BRACE POSITION BRIEFED [ ] Flaps — extend for landing on confirmed reachable field; consider partial flaps if field is short ... EXTENDED PER POH; APPROACH FLOWN [ ] Doors — unlatch prior to touchdown to ensure exit ability after impact ... UNLATCHED ** NOTE: Consider CAPS deployment if unable to reach a suitable landing surface and altitude allows. CAPS is the preferred outcome over an uncontrolled off-airport landing in unsurvivable terrain. CAPS DEPLOYMENT — CIRRUS AIRFRAME PARACHUTE SYSTEM [EMERGENCY] --------------------------------------------------------------- ** WARNING: CAPS IS A LAST-RESORT AND IN CERTAIN EMERGENCY SCENARIOS THE PREFERRED OPTION. Deploy without hesitation when the aircraft cannot be controlled, when terrain precludes a survivable landing, or when the pilot becomes incapacitated. All numeric deployment envelope limits (minimum altitude, airspeed) come from the POH — not this file. [ ] Announce to occupants [MEMORY] ..... BRACE — PARACHUTE BEING DEPLOYED [ ] Throttle [MEMORY] ............ REDUCE AS PRACTICAL; DO NOT DELAY PULL [ ] CAPS handle — grasp T-handle overhead; pull firmly through full stroke [MEMORY] ... PULL HARD UNTIL DETENT FELT; DO NOT STOP PARTWAY [ ] Master switch — after chute deploys and aircraft stabilizes under canopy [MEMORY] ... OFF [ ] Fuel selector [MEMORY] .......................................... OFF [ ] Mixture [MEMORY] ........................................ IDLE CUTOFF [ ] Ignition switch [MEMORY] ........................................ OFF [ ] Seat belts and shoulder harnesses — all occupants cinched as tight as possible [MEMORY] ... MAXIMUM TIGHTNESS [ ] Brace position — all occupants; brace against seats; hands off all controls [MEMORY] ... BRACING FOR IMPACT ** NOTE: After landing under CAPS: exit the aircraft quickly if fire risk exists. Do not restart the engine. Emergency services will respond to ELT and/or transmitted position.
