- Chapter 9: Flight Manuals and Other Documents › Minimum Equipment Lists (MEL) and Operations With Inoperative Equipment
equipment must be placarded INOPERATIVE. All small rotorcraft, non-turbine powered airplanes, gliders, or lighter-than-air aircraft operated under 14 CFR part 91 are eligible to use the maintenance deferral provisions of 14 CFR, part 91, section ... However, once an operator requests an MEL, and a Letter of Authorization (LOA) is issued by the FAA, then the use of the MEL becomes mandatory for that aircraft. All maintenance deferrals must be accomplished in accordance with the terms…

level engine-out flight. 2. Engine inoperative flight using ailerons alone requires an 8–10° bank angle toward the operative engine. [Figure 13-16] This assumes no rudder input, the ball is displaced well toward the operative engine, and climb ... performance is greatly reduced by the large sideslip toward the operative engine. Due to the increased risk of loss of control, instructors should not normally demonstrate this. Figure 13-16. Excessive bank engine-out flight. 3. Rudder and ailerons used…
- Chapter 15: Transition to Turbopropeller-Powered Airplanes › Operational Considerations
Operational Considerations As previously stated, a turboprop airplane flies just like any other piston engine airplane of comparable size and weight. It is the operation of the engines and airplane systems that makes the turboprop airplane different from its piston ... engine counterpart. Pilot errors in engine and/or systems operation are common causes of aircraft damage or loss of aircraft control. There are two engine-related issues that should be considered when a pilot transitions to turboprop operations. The first issue…
- 14 CFR § 121.537 Responsibility for operational control: Supplemental operations.
Responsibility for operational control: Supplemental operations. (a) Each certificate holder conducting supplemental operations— (1) Is responsible for operational control; and (2) Shall list each person authorized by it to exercise operational control in its operator's manual. (b) The pilot ... command and the director of operations are jointly responsible for the initiation, continuation, diversion, and termination of a flight in compliance with this chapter and the operations specifications. The director of operations may delegate the functions for the initiation, continuation…
- Chapter 1: Departure Procedures › One-Engine-Inoperative (OEI) Takeoff Obstacle Clearance Requirements
following an engine failure on takeoff. However, when a straight-out departure is not practical or recommended, a special OEI turn procedure can be developed for each applicable runway. This OEI turn procedure may follow the path of a published ... designed to avoid otherwise onerous obstacles and thereby maximize the allowable takeoff weight and payload. Graphic depiction of the OEI procedure is often available to give the pilot a pictorial representation of the special OEI procedure. An engine failure during…
- Chapter 10: Engine Maintenance & Operation › Turbine Engine Operation › Ground Operation Engine Fire
Ground Operation Engine Fire Move the fuel shutoff lever to the off position if an engine fire occurs, or if the fire warning light is illuminated during the starting cycle. Continue cranking or motoring the engine until the fire ... tailpipe and the fuel is dripping to the ground and burning. Engine Checks Checking turbofan engines for proper operation consists primarily of simply reading the engine instruments and then comparing the observed values with those known to be correct…
