  1. ENGINE-OUT PROCEDURES

  2. ENGINE-OUT PROCEDURES Vmc – Minimum control speed with the critical engine inoperative Vxse – Best single engine angle-of-climb speed Vyse – Best single engine rate-of-climb speed

  3. MISCELLANEOUS • When an engine fails in flight the effect on aircraft performance is drastic. • Loss of one engine on a two-engine aircraft will result in a loss of climb performance in excess of 50% (usually <80%) • Climb performance is determined by the amount of power available in excess of that required for level flight • If an engine fails in cruise, pilot should slow the aircraft to its best single-engine rate-of-climb speed (Vyse) and apply maximum continuous power on remaining engine. • The aircraft may or may not climb. • If it cannot climb at the present altitude at least it will descend at the minimum possible rate of sink and level off at its max engine-out altitude. • A multi-engine aircraft should never be flown below its Minimum Control Speed (Vmc). • It may be impossible to maintain direction control with the other engine operating at full power – Vmc will be highest with most rearward-allowed CG

  4. MISCELLANEOUS • Three/four-engine turbine-powered airplane may be ferried to a maintenance base with one engine inoperative with the following requirements met: • The airplane model must have been test flown to show operation is safe • Operator’s flight manual must contain performance data • Operating weight must be limited to min required plus required reserve fuel • Takeoffs are limited to dry runways • Computed takeoff performance must be within acceptable limits • The initial climb cannot be over thickly-populated areas • Only required flight crew may be on the aircraft • Weather conditions at the takeoff and destination airports must be VFR

  5. QUESTION 8369. If an engine failure occurs at an altitude above single-engine ceiling, what airspeed should be maintained? A – Vmc B – Vyse C – Vxse

  6. QUESTION 8369. If an engine failure occurs at an altitude above single-engine ceiling, what airspeed should be maintained? A – Vmc B – Vyse C – Vxse

  7. QUESTION 8370. What is the resulting performance loss when one engine on a twin-engine aircraft fails? A – Reduction of cruise airspeed by 50% B – Reduction of climb by 80-90% C – Reduction of all performance by 50%

  8. QUESTION 8370. What is the resulting performance loss when one engine on a twin-engine aircraft fails? A – Reduction og cruise airspeed by 50% B – Reduction of climb by 80-90% C – Reduction of all performance by 50%

  9. QUESTION 8371. Under what condition is Vmc the highest? A – Gross weight is at maximum allowable value B – CG is at the most rearward allowable position C – CG is at the most forward allowable position

Which is an operational requirement for the three-engine flight? A – The gross weight at takeoff may not exceed 75% of the maximum certified gross weight B – Weather conditions at the takeoff and destination airports must be VFR C – The computed takeoff distance to reach V1 must not exceed 70% of the effective runway length

C – The flight cannot be conducted between official sunset and sunrise.
