EMERGENCY
NOTE
•
The following checks will help determine which engine has failed:
1. DEAD FOOT - DEAD ENGINE. The rudder pressure required to maintain directional control will be on the side of the operative engine.
2. THROTTLE. Partially retard the throttle for the engine that is believed to be inoperative; there should be no change in control pressures or in the sound of the engine if the correct throttle has been selected. AT LOW ALTITUDE AND AIRSPEED THIS CHECK MUST BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH EXTREME CAUTION.
•
Do not attempt to determine the inoperative engine by means of the tachometers or the manifold pressure gages. These instruments often indicate near normal readings.
