  Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures › Door Opening In-Flight

  offers generic information on some of the more commonly experienced in-flight abnormal engine instrument indications, their possible causes, and corrective actions. Figure 18-11. Commonly experienced in-flight abnormal engine instrument indications, their possible causes, and corrective actions. Door ... incident happens. A door opening in flight may be accompanied by a sudden loud noise, sustained noise level, and possible vibration or buffeting. If a pilot allows himself or herself to become distracted to the point where attention is focused…

  Chapter 18: Emergency Procedures › In-Flight Fire › Electrical Fires

  initial indication of an electrical fire is usually the distinct odor of burning insulation. Once an electrical fire is detected, the pilot should attempt to identify the faulty circuit by checking circuit breakers, instruments, avionics, and lights. If the faulty ... circuit cannot be readily detected and isolated, and flight conditions permit, the battery master switch and alternator/generator switches should be turned off to remove the possible source of the fire. However, any materials that have been ignited may continue…

  Chapter 1: Risk Management and Single-Pilot Resource Management › Defining Risk Management

  Defining Risk Management Risk is defined as the probability and possible severity of accident or loss from exposure to various hazards, including injury to people and loss of resources. [Figure 1-1] All Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) operations ... thinking about these topics, is the logical process of weighing the potential costs of risks against the possible benefits of allowing those risks to stand uncontrolled.

  Chapter 4: Assessing Risk › Using a Risk Assessment Matrix

  runways are just long enough to accommodate the aircraft. The possibility exists for a runway overrun on each landing. Given this data, an overrun could occur sometime, and the likelihood is “occasional.” Risk Severity The following terms describe the severity ... example of the marginal runway length, an overrun could cause major damage to the aircraft and possible severe injuries, or a “critical” outcome. Using a Risk Assessment Matrix Once risk likelihood and severity have been determined, the pilot…

  tells the learner to plan for arrival at a specific nontowered airport. The planning should take into consideration the possible wind conditions, arrival paths, airport information and communication procedures, available runways, recommended traffic patterns, courses of action, and preparation ... traffic pattern. This is followed by a discussion of what was done, why it was done, the consequences, other possible courses of action, and how it applies to other airports. In contrast to the learner who trained under the traditional…

Habitual overloading tends to cause cumulative stress and damage that may not be detected during preflight inspections ... posted for the type of flights to be performed. Flights at weights in excess of this amount are quite possible and often are well within the performance capabilities of an aircraft. This fact should not mislead the pilot…
