- Appendix A: Emergency Procedures › Generator Failure
appropriate aircraft operator’s manual for information on the type of systems installed in the aircraft. Once a generator failure is detected, the pilot must reduce electrical load on the battery and land as soon as practical. Depending on electrical ... taken to reduce electrical load to avoid overloading the operating generator(s). The pilot can attempt to troubleshoot generator failure by following established procedures published in the appropriate aircraft operator’s manual. If the generator cannot be reset, inform…

reported to ATC, as this condition is known and not an anomaly. See also AIM 1-1-13. Communication Failure Two-way radio communication failure procedures for IFR operations are outlined in 14 CFR Part 91, § 91.185. Unless otherwise authorized ... pilots operating under IFR are expected to comply with this regulation. Expanded procedures for communication failures are found in the Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM). Pilots can use the transponder to alert ATC to a radio communication failure by squawking code…
- Chapter 11: Emergency Operations › Analog Instrument Failure
Pilots can attempt to troubleshoot alternator failure by following the established alternator failure procedure published in the POH/ AFM. If the alternator cannot be reset, advise ATC of the situation and inform them of the impending electrical failure. Figure ... Emergency instrumentation available to the pilot on electronic flight instrumented aircraft. Analog Instrument Failure A warning indicator, or an inconsistency between indications on the attitude indicator and the supporting performance instruments, usually identifies system or instrument failure. Aircraft control must…

above the MDA or DA/DH before beginning a turn. If visual reference is lost while circling-to-land from an instrument approach, execute the appropriate MAP. Make the initial climbing turn toward the landing runway and then maneuver to intercept ... visible to the pilot during a circling maneuver at or above MDA; or 3. When so directed by ATC. Landing According to 14 CFR part 91, no pilot may land when the flight visibility is less than the visibility prescribed…

parallel runways that are separated by 1,200 feet or less, followed by a straight-in landing on the adjacent runway. Aircraft executing a side-step maneuver are cleared for a specified nonprecision approach and landing on the adjacent parallel ... commence the side-step maneuver as soon as possible after the runway or runway environment is in sight. Landing minimums to the adjacent runway are based on nonprecision criteria and therefore higher than the precision minimums to the primary runway…
- Chapter 11: Emergency Operations › Pneumatic System Failure
Pneumatic System Failure One possible cause of instrument failure is a loss of the suction or pressure source. This pressure or suction is supplied by a vacuum pump mechanically driven off the engine. Occasionally these pumps fail, leaving the pilot ... occurs after a careful analysis of systems. Many small aircraft are not equipped with a warning system for vacuum failure; therefore, the pilot should monitor the system’s vacuum/pressure gauge. This can be a hazardous situation with the potential…
