Emergency Procedure
ABCD Checklist
A. Airspeed - Best Glide Speed: 60 knots
B. Best Place to Land
C. Checklist
D. Declare
Airspeed - Best Glide Speed
All depends on what you’re trying to do
- Is the speed that will get you the greatest distance
- Is the speed that gets you the longest time in the air
Best Place To Land
- If the emergency is at low altitude, pilot must choose the nearest and best place to land
- If the emergency is at high altitude, pilot should select the best desired general area for landing.
- Terrain appearance from altitude can be very misleading.
Approach
Planning approach should be governed by the following factors
- Wind direction and velocity
- Dimensions and slope of the chosen field
- Obstacles in the final approach path
Depending on the situation, you should configure the airplane for landing
- Flaps up or flaps down
- Landing gear up or landing gear down
Terrain Types
Tree landing
Vegetation landing
Ditching (Water)
- Belts tight
- Secure loose objects
- Approach at slower airspeed possible
- Open door
- Prepare for cold water gasp
- Slowest possible touchdown (Better a stall than a skip)
- Door open first
- Then release belts
Checklist
T-Flow
- Seat belts adjust
- Fuel valve both
- Magnetos both
- Master switch both
- Circuit brakers all in
- Avionics on
- Mixture rich or as required for altitude
- Instruments on green
If altitude is enough, try restart engine checklist
