Question 1

Engine Failure after Takeoff

Answer 1

*1. Power — Maximum allowable.
*2. Gear — UP.
3. Airspeed — Accelerate to Vxse or Vyse.
†4. Propeller (inoperative engine) — Confirm auto feather or FEATHER (PM).
*5. Flaps — UP.
*6. Emergency Shutdown Checklist — Perform.

Question 2

(N/W/C) Engine Failure after Takeoff

Answer 2

• Maximum climb performance can be achieved by raising the failed engine 3
to 5° up and displacing the slip skid indicator one-half to three-quarters of a ball width toward the good engine.
• If the auto feather system is being used, retarding the POWER lever below
approximately 90 percent N1 before the feathering sequence is complete will deactivate the auto feather circuit and prevent automatic feathering.

Question 3

Aborted Takeoff

Answer 3

*1. POWER levers — IDLE/REVERSE as required.
*2. Brakes — As required.

Prior to departing the prepared surface:
*3. CONDITION levers — FUEL CUTOFF (PM).
*4. PROP levers — FEATHER (PM).

After aircraft stops:
*5. Firewall valves — CLOSED.
*6. Engine fire extinguisher — As required (PM).
*7. AUX BATT switch — OFF.
*8. Gangbar — Off.

Question 4

(N/W/C) Aborted Takeoff

Answer 4

In the event of a malfunction affecting the ability to control engine power,
bringing the POWER levers to IDLE prior to cutting off fuel may accentuate
yaw and result in departure from the runway. In this case, consideration
should be given to moving both CONDITION levers to FUEL CUTOFF
prior to reducing POWER levers.

Single-engine reversing must be applied cautiously or loss of directional
control may result. Use extreme caution if takeoff surface is not hard and dry.

Question 5

Abnormal Start

Answer 5

Answer 6

*1. Aircraft — Stop.
*2. Parking brake — Set.

In case of fire, fuel leak, or at TPC discretion
*4. PROP levers — FEATHER (PM).
*5. Firewall valves — CLOSED.
*6. Engine fire extinguisher — As required (PM).

*8. AUX BATT switch — OFF.
*9. Gangbar — Off.

Question 7

Question 20

BL AIR FAIL L/R (n/w/c)

Answer 20

The first indication of a ruptured
bleed air line in the engine
compartment will be a reduction of
engine power possibly followed by
fire. This cannot be remedied by
securing the BLEED AIR VALVES
switch. Consideration should be
given to reducing engine power or
securing the engine if it cannot be
determined that the bleed air valve
closed. This type of failure will
not cause the BL AIR FAIL light to
illuminate.

3. Flaps — APPROACH (if DOWN).
4. Establish positive rate of climb.
5. Gear — UP.
6. Flaps — UP.

Question 22

Continued Flight with Engine Failure

In the event of a power loss or engine failure, the TPC shall apply risk management decisions to determine landing criteria. The TPC should only proceed to a selected destination after considering the following

Answer 22

1. The nature of the malfunction and the possible mechanical difficulties that may occur if flight is continued.
2. The altitude, weight, and usable fuel at the time of engine stoppage.
3. The terrain and weather conditions en route and at suitable landing points.
4. Possible air traffic congestion at suitable landing points.
5. Pilot familiarity with the airport to be used.
6. Power on the remaining engine(s) is sufficient for en route conditions and available landing sites.

Question 23

Emergency Shutdown Checklist should be completed at Aircraft Commander discretion, or when:

Answer 23

1. CHIP DET light illuminates.
2. Runaway torque increase in flight (not responsive to POWER lever movement).
3. Engine fire in flight.
4. Oil pressure low.
5. Leaking oil/fuel.
6. Engine failure in flight.

Question 24

Engine Failure (Second Engine) N/W/C

Answer 24

If airstart is to be conducted on second failed engine, anticipate minimum altitude loss of 2,000 to 3,000 feet before power is again available to maintain flying speed. If second engine has flamed out below 3,000 feet AGL, there may not be enough time for a restart prior to forced landing or ditch, and consideration should be given to feathering both propellers and preparing the aircraft for maximum range glide airspeed.

A feathered propeller will not unfeather unless the engine compressor section is operating at low idle or above.

Question 25

Air starts should be attempted if

Answer 25

engine failure or unexpected flameout occurs provided time and altitude permit. A drop in ITT, torque, and turbine rpm indicates a flameout condition.

Question 26

Airstart should not be attempted if engine failure can be attributed to

Answer 26

1. mechanical malfunction 2. was accompanied by an explosion 3. overheating 4. vibration 5. strong fuel fumes 6. fire 7. N1 tachometer indicating zero rpm.

Question 27

Windmilling airstart should be used when

Answer 27

An engine has been inadvertently secured Altitude shall be below 20,000 ft Airspeed shall be above 140 KIAS

Question 28

Windmilling Airstart N/W/C

Answer 28

Windmilling airstarts should not be attempted above 20,000 feet or below 140 KIAS. Higher airspeed and lower altitude will reduce ITT on start. In order to conduct a windmilling airstart, the propeller must be rotating (windmilling) to ensure sufficient N1 is available prior to ignition and fuel introduction. If the windmilling airstart procedure is conducted with a feathered propeller (regardless of PROP lever position), overtemperature could occur, causing damage to the engine.

Question 29

After securing all electrical power, the following instruments are still available:

Answer 29

The auxiliary battery will power the ESIS RTU NAV 1 V/UHF pilot audio clocks standby compass for approximately 30 minutes as long as the AUX BATT switch remains in the ON/ARMED position. Instruments lost are the pilot and copilot PFDs and MFD. The aural stall warning system is also inoperative.

Question 30

Oil pressure below 85 or 100 PSI is undesirable and should be tolerated only for the completion of the flight at a reduced power not to exceed

Answer 30

1100 ft-lbs

Question 31

Oil pressure below 60 psi and/or oil temperature that exceeds 99 °C is unsafe and requires that either

Answer 31

the engine should be shut down or a landing be made as soon as possible using minimum power to sustain flight.

Question 32

Crossfeed front matter

Answer 32

Crossfeed is primarily intended to allow continued single-engine operation, not to correct minor fuel imbalance in flight. Crossfeed to support dual-engine operation is not recommended or normally required; however, it is not prohibited if deemed necessary by the aircraft commander

Question 33

Stall Checklist

Answer 33

1. Spin recovery — Brief. 2. Loose gear — Stowed. 3. Altitude — Minimum 5,000 feet AGL. 4. Autopilot/yaw damp — As required. 5. PROP levers — As required. 6. Stall speeds — Reviewed. 7. Clearing turn — Minimum of 90° of turn.
