2 TO SURVIVE A POWERPLANT FAILURE
TIPS TO SURVIVE A POWERPLANT FAILURE BY DIEGO M. ALFONSO

3

5

6 TOP REASONS WHY AIRPLANE POWERPLANTS
10 TOP REASONS WHY AIRPLANE POWERPLANTS FAIL

7 CRANKSHAFT AND PISTON FAILURE 2%
OIL LEAKS > 2% INDUCTION SYSTEM BLOCKAGE > 3% IGNITION PROBLEMS % MISCELLANEOUS MAINTENANCE % CYLINDERS,VALVES ETC % FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM % CARBURETOR ICE % FUEL CONTAMINATION % FUEL STARVATION/EXHAUSTION %

8 PASSING CHECKRIDE, ENGINE
I’M TRYING TO BRAKE THE PCEFS PASSING CHECKRIDE, ENGINE FAILURE SYNDROME

9 IT ALL BEGINS WITH PROPER TRAINING

10 PREPARATION

11 POWERPLANTS FAIL ONLY ON TWO OCCASIONS

12 ANTICIPATION TWO GROUPS OF PILOT

13 PROFICIENCY PERSONAL PROFICIENCY PLAN

14 POWERPLANT FAILURE SURVIVAL
PREPARATION + ANTICIPATION PROFICIENCY + LITTLE BIT OF LUCK = POWERPLANT FAILURE SURVIVAL

15 WE ARE EXTENDING THE TRAFFIC PATTERN AT THE MOST DANGEROUS END.
SLOW DOWN.

16 NO LOOSE ARTICLES NOTHING UNDER SEATS

17 THE TAKEOFF

18 STATIC POWER CHECK

19 EVERYTHING IN THE GREEN.
VISUAL CHECK: RPM, MP, EGT, ETC. WHAT SHOULD THE MP GAUGE READ?

20 BEST RATE OF CLIMB SPEED
VS NORMAL CLIMB OUT SPEED

21 THE BEST RATE OF CLIMB WILL
BE OBTAINED AT 105 MPH. TAKEOFF SPEED 82 MPH. AT LIGHTER THAN GROSS WEIGHT THESE SPEEDS ARE REDUCED SOMEWHAT.

22 TAKEOFF: NORMAL CLIMB OUT… KIAS. BEST RATE OF CLIMB, SEA LEVEL…….84 KIAS.

23 QUICK ALTITUDE GAIN IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN FASTER FORWARD SPEED DURING SHORT FIELD AND NORMAL CLIMB OUT.

24 MAINTAIN THE SLOWEST OF RECOMMENDED CLIMB SPEED TO A SAFE ALTITUDE.

25 THE EMERGENCY TAKEOFF BRIEFING

26 WIND DIRECTION. WHICH WAY TO TURN? AIRPORT LAYOUT. EMERGENCY FIELDS NEAR HOME AIRPORT. AT DESTINATION LOOK WHEN LANDING.

27 THE POINT OF RETURN

28 ALTITUDE IS LOST IN A POWER OFF
HOW MUCH ALTITUDE IS LOST IN A POWER OFF 90° 180° 270° AND A 360° TURN 30°-45° BANK.

29 SELECTING THE GENERAL PRACTICE AREA

30 SELECTING THE SPECIFIC MANEUVERING AREA

31 THERE MUST BE A SUITABLE LANDING SITE WITHIN REACH.

32 PICKING THE BEST AVAILABLE FIELD

33 BE PICKED BEFORE THE POWERPLANT FAILS
THE FIELD SHOULD BE PICKED BEFORE THE POWERPLANT FAILS

34

35 PICK A TOUCH DOWN POINT

36 KEEP THE TOUCH DOWN POINT IN SIGHT. IF A TURN IS NEEDED TURN LEFT

37

38

39 POWER OFF OVER A 50’ OBSTACLE
DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG DOES IT TAKES TO LAND YOUR AIRCRAFT POWER OFF OVER A 50’ OBSTACLE

40 DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT DISTANCE LOOKS LIKE FROM THE AIR AT DIFFERENT ALTITUDES?

41 THE WING SPAN OF YOUR AIRCRAFT
DO YOU KNOW THE WING SPAN OF YOUR AIRCRAFT

42 DO YOU KNOW HOW WIDE SECONDARY ROADS ARE?

43 DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SPOT WIRES CROSSING A HIGHWAY?

44 IS THE FIELD UPHILL OR DOWNHILL?

45 KNOWING THE WIND DIRECTION

46 SMOKE DUST FLAGS LAKES LEAVES COWS

47

48 CONSTANT AIRSPEED GLIDES A LOST ART

49

50 FINDING BEST GLIDE SPEED FOR THE PARTICULAR
FLIGHT

51 In airplanes for which the manufacturer does not provide the optimum glide speed, and with which the pilot is not familiar, it can be determined by experimentation. This can be accomplished by establishing a power off glide and noting the airspeed and vertical speed, and then gradually reducing the airspeed until the vertical speed reaches its minimum and starts to increase. The airspeed at that moment is the best glide speed in still air.

52 WHAT IS THE MINIMUM POWER SETTING AND AIRSPEED NEEDED
TO MAINTAIN ALTITUDE IN YOUR A/C.

53 POWER OFF ACCURACY APPROACHES PROFICIENCY IS ESSENTIAL

54 DETERMINING THE KEY POSITIONS

59 LOW ALTITUDE EMERGENCIES HIGH ALTITUDE EMERGENCIES

60 POWERPLANT FAILURE PROCEDURES

61 COCKPIT EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
INITIAL ACTION PROCEDURES COCKPIT EMERGENCY PROCEDURES EMERGENCY LANDING PROCEDURES

62 INITIAL ACTION PROCEDURES

63 FIRST & FOREMOST FLY THE AIRCRAFT.

64 ATTAIN AND/OR PITCH FOR Vg ATTITUDE.
TURN TOWARDS THE FIELD. THINK ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF APPROACH AND LANDING.

65 YOUR JOB IS TO LAND THE A/C ON THE EMERGENCY FIELD.
IF ALTITUDE ALLOWS DO THE REST.

66 COCKPIT EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

67 TRY TO RESTORE POWER.

68 FIRST CARBURETOR HEAT ON. WHY?

69 FUEL SELECTOR SWITCH TO FULLEST TANK FUEL VALVE CHECK ON

70 FUEL PUMP ON IF EQUIPPED

71 FUEL MIXTURE ADJUST OR RICH.

72 MAGNETOS CHECK BOTH

73 IN A SINGLE ENGINE AIRPLANE, CONSTANT SPEED PROP, PULLING THE PROPELLER CONTROL OUT WILL NOT HAVE AN EFFECT ON THE BLADE ANGLE OF THE PROPELLER

74 ENGINE FAILURE CHECKLIST. ALL INFORMATION ON SAME PAGE.

75 WHAT KIND OF POWERPLANT FAILURE?

76 TOTAL POWERPLANT FAILURE. PROP WINDMILLING

77 FUEL EXHAUSTION. FUEL STARVATION. CARBURETOR ICE. MAG FAILURE. (H). AIR BLOCKAGE.

78 PARTIAL POWERPLANT FAILURE

79 FUEL FLOW BLOCKAGE

80 AIR INDUCTION BLOCKAGE
AIR FILTER BIRD STRIKE

81 ENGINE CONTROLS

82 A B

86 IMPENDING POWERPLANT FAILURE

87 PRECAUTIONARY LANDING AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE

88 HOW OFTEN DO YOU CHECK THE ENGINE INSTRUMENTS?

89 OIL PRESSURE GAUGE READING LOW/ZERO

90 TROUBLESHOOTING C.H.T. E.G.T. OIL TEMP.

91 BAD GAUGE OIL PUMP FAILURE OIL LEAK

92 OIL TEMP MAY BE NORMAL

93 CATASTROPHIC FAILURE “PROP STOPPED”

94 CRANKSHAFT ROD PISTON VALVE ETC.

95 HIGH ALTITUDE DESCENTS SHOCK COOLED AROUND HOT PISTON
CYLINDERS SHOCK COOLED AROUND HOT PISTON

96 CATASTROPHIC THRUST FAILURE

97 PROPELLER BLADE SEPARATES FROM THE ENGINE.
COMPLETE PROPELLER DEPARTURE FROM THE ENGINE TRANSFER CASE MALFUNCTION CRANK SHAFT BREAKS, PROPELLER WINDMILLING

98

99 FOR AN EMERGENCY LANDING
PREPARE FOR AN EMERGENCY LANDING

100 DOORS WINDOWS AND EMERGENCY EXITS OPEN

101 COMPLETE THE EMERGENCY LANDING CHECKLIST.

102 FUEL SELECTOR/VALVE OFF
MIXTURE IDLE CUT-OFF FUEL PUMP OFF EXTEND FLAPS AS REQ. EXTEND LANDING GEAR. MASTER SWITCH OFF, WHEN NOT NEEDED. DAY/NIGHT

103 BRIEF PASSENGERS

104 COMPLETE THE EMERGENCY LANDING CHECKLIST.

105 NO STRAIGHT IN UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY

106 WAYS OF CORRECTING FOR MISJUDGMENT OF ALTITUDE AND GLIDE ANGLE.

107 SLIPPING THE AIRPLANE S TURNS ON FINAL APPROACH VARYING THE POSITION OF THE BASE LEG USING FLAPS

108

109 DON’T TRY TO STRETCH THE GLIDE.

110 IT’S OK TO CHANGE FIELD. FLY DIRECT TO THE FIELD. ELIMINATE DRAG.
UNDERSHOOTING IT’S OK TO CHANGE FIELD. FLY DIRECT TO THE FIELD. ELIMINATE DRAG.

111 NEVER TURN AWAY FROM THE FIELD

112 TURN TO THE LEFT TO KEEP THE FIELD
IN SIGHT.

113 COMMUNICATE IF POSSIBLE

114 FINAL ACTIONS

115 TOUCHDOWN

116 POST LANDING ACTIONS

117 TAKE THE ELT WITH YOU IF LEAVING THE AIRCRAFT

118 ICING FROM 70 TO 20 DEGREES F WE DON’T FLY AT THE SURFACE. Smithly gump Forest is his smartest brother The problem lies between the pilots ears
