Emergency checklists must be studied, practiced, and memorized. This file is an aide-memoire only. Aviate first, then navigate and communicate. Equipment variations across AA-5B production affect available instruments and systems during emergencies. Verify procedures against the specific aircraft POH.

Throttle CLOSE IMMEDIATELY Brakes APPLY FIRMLY — STOP ON REMAINING RUNWAY Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Ignition switch OFF Fuel selector OFF Master switch OFF Canopy — unlatch for emergency egress after stopping UNLATCHED, SLIDE OPEN WHEN STOPPED Egress — exit aircraft and move clear; notify emergency services if fire or injury EVACUATE AND CLEAR

Best glide airspeed — pitch for glide immediately ESTABLISH PER POH Landing area — select best available surface ahead; avoid turns back to runway at low altitude SELECTED Throttle CLOSE Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Ignition switch OFF Fuel selector OFF Master switch OFF (when landing assured) Canopy — unlatch before touchdown for emergency egress UNLATCHED

Best glide airspeed — pitch to establish immediately ESTABLISH PER POH Fuel selector BOTH (or opposite tank if imbalanced) Carburetor heat FULL HOT Throttle ADVANCE TO DETERMINE IF ENGINE WILL RESPOND Mixture RICH Primer IN AND LOCKED Ignition switch — verify on BOTH; try LEFT then RIGHT if no restart BOTH (CHECK) Starter — attempt restart if altitude and conditions permit ATTEMPT PER POH RESTART PROCEDURE If restart unsuccessful — declare emergency; select landing area; initiate forced landing procedure MAYDAY DECLARED, FORCED LANDING INITIATED Squawk 7700 — if transponder accessible and time permits 7700 SET

Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Fuel selector OFF Throttle FULL OPEN (to exhaust remaining fuel in lines) Ignition switch OFF Master switch OFF Cabin heat and vents CLOSE ALL (prevent smoke and fumes entering cockpit) Airspeed — increase to accelerate descent and help extinguish fire; do not exceed VNE INCREASE PER POH GUIDANCE Canopy — unlatch before touchdown; declare emergency; select landing area UNLATCHED; FORCED LANDING INITIATED

Throttle FULL OPEN MOMENTARILY (to attempt to draw fire back into engine) Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Fuel selector OFF Ignition switch OFF Master switch OFF Canopy — open and egress immediately OPEN; EVACUATE AIRCRAFT Fire extinguisher — use external extinguisher on fire if accessible without personal risk APPLY IF SAFE TO DO SO Emergency services NOTIFY IMMEDIATELY — CALL 911

Master switch OFF All electrical switches — radios, lights, avionics OFF Cabin vents — open to clear smoke from cockpit OPEN Canopy — if smoke is heavy and flight conditions permit, crack canopy for ventilation AS REQUIRED FOR SMOKE REMOVAL If fire is out and smoke clears — selectively restore electrical power one switch at a time to identify fault RESTORE SELECTIVELY; ISOLATE FAULT Land — plan expedited landing at nearest suitable airport; declare emergency if warranted LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE

Oil pressure gauge — verify indication; cross-check with oil temperature for trend LOW PRESSURE CONFIRMED Throttle — reduce power immediately to decrease engine stress REDUCE POWER Landing area — identify nearest suitable airport or field NEAREST AIRPORT IDENTIFIED Squawk 7700 and declare emergency if engine failure imminent or oil temperature rising rapidly MAYDAY IF REQUIRED Engine instruments — monitor closely; be prepared for sudden engine roughness or seizure CONTINUOUS MONITORING Land — do not delay; engine failure without lubrication is imminent LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Carburetor heat — apply full hot immediately; do not remove until RPM recovers and then stabilizes FULL HOT — HOLD UNTIL CLEAR Throttle — avoid closing during heat application; maintain sufficient power to sustain flight MAINTAIN SUFFICIENT POWER RPM — expect a brief further drop as ice melts and water ingests through carburetor; then RPM should rise and stabilize above original indication MONITOR FOR RECOVERY If RPM does not recover — declare emergency; identify nearest landing area; initiate descent EMERGENCY DECLARED IF NO RECOVERY Carburetor heat — once ice is cleared, return to COLD for normal operations; continue to monitor COLD WHEN CLEAR; MONITOR CONTINUOUSLY Conditions — remain alert to icing conditions; apply carb heat preemptively in high-risk conditions per POH guidance APPLY PREVENTIVELY IN ICING CONDITIONS

Best glide airspeed — establish and maintain ESTABLISHED PER POH Landing area — select best available surface; favor fields with consistent short grass; avoid wires, ditches, and slopes SELECTED Squawk 7700 and declare MAYDAY on 121.5 MHz or last used frequency MAYDAY DECLARED, 7700 SET Fuel selector OFF Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Ignition switch OFF (when landing is assured) Master switch OFF (when landing is assured) Canopy — unlatch before touchdown to ensure exit is possible after landing UNLATCHED Seat belts and shoulder harnesses — all occupants tightened TIGHTENED AND LOCKED Final approach — align with landing surface; plan for a controlled touchdown at minimum safe airspeed; flaps as appropriate per altitude and POH CONFIGURED FOR LANDING
