Piper PA-32-301 Cherokee Six — Emergency Procedures

Engine Failure on Takeoff — Before or At Liftoff Throttle CLOSE IMMEDIATELY Brakes — apply firmly to stop within remaining runway; maintain directional control MAXIMUM BRAKING APPLIED Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Fuel selector OFF Ignition switch OFF Master switch OFF WHEN LANDING ASSURED If airborne with insufficient runway remaining — land ahead; do not attempt to return to runway at low altitude; remain within 30 degrees of runway heading LAND AHEAD ON AVAILABLE SURFACE The PA-32-301 is a heavy aircraft. Aggressive maneuvering at low altitude and low airspeed following engine failure is extremely hazardous. Flaps — if briefly airborne and landing on overrun or adjacent terrain EXTEND AS NEEDED TO REDUCE TOUCHDOWN SPEED Occupants — advise to brace if off-airport landing is imminent BRACE POSITION BRIEFED

Engine Failure in Flight Airspeed — establish best glide immediately PER POH; MAINTAIN TO MAXIMIZE GLIDE RANGE Landing area — identify suitable field; begin turn toward it SELECTED; TURNING TOWARD FIELD Fuel selector — switch to fullest or alternate tank FULLEST TANK SELECTED Fuel boost pump ON Mixture RICH Ignition switch — confirm fully in BOTH position BOTH CONFIRMED Throttle — advance to check for engine response; assess whether power loss is partial or total CHECKED Alternate air — select ON if intake blockage or induction icing is suspected ON IF BLOCKAGE SUSPECTED Engine restart — if altitude and conditions permit, follow POH air-restart sequence; do not delay forced landing planning ATTEMPTED PER POH; FORCED LANDING PLANNED SIMULTANEOUSLY Mayday — transmit on 121.5 MHz and current ATC frequency; aircraft type, position, altitude, intentions TRANSMITTED Transponder SQUAWK 7700 If engine does not restart — proceed to Forced Landing checklist

Engine Fire in Flight Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF — starve engine of fuel immediately Fuel selector OFF Fuel boost pump OFF Throttle CLOSE Master switch — all electrical OFF Cabin heat and fresh air vents — close all to prevent fumes or smoke from entering cabin CLOSED If fire persists — increase airspeed in a diving descent to extinguish fire by airflow; do not exceed Vne AIRSPEED INCREASED; WITHIN Vne Mayday — if radio available before electrical shutdown; position and intentions transmitted DECLARED ON 121.5 MHz Forced landing — execute immediately; do not delay for restart attempts when fire is active INITIATING IMMEDIATELY

Engine Fire on Ground If fire appears to be in the induction area and engine is running — throttle: advance briefly to full to draw fire back through intake ATTEMPT TO STARVE FIRE; SECONDS ONLY Only attempt while engine is turning. If the fire does not extinguish within a few seconds, proceed immediately to shutdown steps below. Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Fuel selector OFF Fuel boost pump OFF Ignition switch OFF Master switch OFF All occupants — evacuate immediately via cabin door and aft door; move well clear upwind of aircraft ALL PERSONS CLEAR UPWIND Fire extinguisher — approach from upwind; aim at base of fire; do not place yourself between fire and fuel tanks APPLIED AT BASE OF FIRE Emergency services CALL 911 OR AIRPORT EMERGENCY SERVICES

Electrical Fire / Smoke in Cockpit Master switch OFF Avionics master switch OFF All individual electrical switches OFF Fresh air vents — open to clear smoke; do not use cabin heat OPEN Fire extinguisher — if smoke or flame persists USE HALON OR CO2 TYPE; NOT WATER If fire appears extinguished — restore one switch at a time to isolate the offending circuit RESTORED ONE AT A TIME; FAULTED CIRCUIT IDENTIFIED AND LEFT OFF Minimum avionics for navigation and communication — restore only essentials ESSENTIAL AVIONICS ONLY Mayday — on 121.5 if radio can be restored; advise smoke in cockpit DECLARED Land at nearest suitable airport AS SOON AS PRACTICAL

Loss of Oil Pressure Oil pressure gauge — verify reading; cross-check oil temperature; rising CHT and oil temp alongside zero pressure confirms actual loss versus gauge failure ACTUAL LOSS CONFIRMED OR GAUGE FAILURE IDENTIFIED Power — reduce to minimum consistent with continued controlled flight REDUCED IMMEDIATELY Landing area — select nearest suitable field; begin precautionary landing planning; engine seizure may be imminent without warning NEAREST FIELD SELECTED Mayday — transmit on 121.5 MHz; aircraft type, position, altitude, oil pressure emergency declared TRANSMITTED Engine instruments — monitor CHT and oil temperature continuously for rapid rise indicating imminent seizure MONITORING CONTINUOUSLY Land without delay — engine failure without warning may follow total oil loss LANDING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Induction Air Blockage / Alternate Air The IO-540 is fuel-injected and has no carburetor — carburetor ice is not a hazard. However, the induction air filter can ice over in visible moisture near freezing temperatures, causing unexplained power loss. The alternate air control bypasses the filtered intake and draws warm unfiltered air from inside the cowling. Alternate air control ON — bypasses blocked or iced induction filter Power response — expect partial restoration; brief roughness as any accumulated ice ingests PARTIAL RESTORATION EXPECTED; ROUGHNESS NORMAL AND TRANSIENT Mixture — adjust as needed for changed induction airflow ADJUSTED AS REQUIRED When clear of icing conditions — return alternate air to normal OFF; NORMAL FILTERED INDUCTION RESTORED

Forced Landing — Power Off Airspeed — establish best glide and maintain; adjust for aircraft weight if required by POH ESTABLISHED AND MAINTAINED PER POH Landing area — select longest available surface oriented as close into wind as possible; avoid wires, trees, structures, and ditches SELECTED; COMMITTED TO FIELD Mayday — transmit on 121.5 MHz and current frequency; aircraft type, position, altitude, souls on board, nature of emergency TRANSMITTED Transponder SQUAWK 7700 Fuel selector OFF Fuel boost pump OFF Mixture IDLE CUT-OFF Ignition switch OFF Seat belts and shoulder harnesses — all occupants; tighten and brief brace position TIGHTENED; BRACE BRIEFED Cabin doors — both cabin door and aft baggage door unlatched before touchdown to prevent jamming in a deformed airframe BOTH DOORS UNLATCHED Master switch — retain for flap operation; OFF immediately before touchdown RETAIN THEN OFF BEFORE TOUCHDOWN Flaps — deploy on final to increase descent angle and reduce touchdown speed; adjust aim point accordingly PER POH FOR CONDITIONS Touchdown — aim for far end of selected surface; land at minimum controllable airspeed; apply brakes aggressively after touchdown MINIMUM SPEED; MAXIMUM BRAKING AFTER TOUCHDOWN
