  Chapter 7: Aircraft Systems › Starting System

  rules of safety and courtesy should be strictly observed. One of the most important safety rules is to ensure there is no one near the propeller prior to starting the engine. In addition, the wheels should be chocked…

  Chapter 7: Aircraft Systems › Propeller Overspeed in Piston Engine Aircraft

  recommends that the information be read and taken into consideration for the safety of flight. The document explains that a single-engine aircraft experienced a propeller overspeed during cruise flight at 7,000 feet. The pilot reported that the application…

  Chapter 13: Transition to Multiengine Airplanes › Low Altitude Engine Failure Scenarios

  feathered, the propeller of the failed engine is windmilling, producing a great deal of drag and yawing tendency. Airplane climb performance is marginal or even non-existent, and obstructions may lie ahead. An emergency contingency plan and safety brief should…

  Chapter 11: Night Operations › Starting, Taxiing, and Run-up

  radio navigation aids and communication facilities add significantly to the safety and efficiency of night flying. Check all personal equipment prior to flight to ensure proper functioning and operation. All airplane lights should be checked for operation by turning them ... materials to be used during the flight. The pilot should also take extra care at night to clear the propeller area. While turning the rotating beacon ON or flashing the airplane position lights helps alert persons nearby to remain clear…

  Chapter 13: Transition to Multiengine Airplanes › Performance and Limitations

  Thermal turbulence, wind gusts, engine and propeller wear, or poor technique in airspeed, bank angle, and rudder control can easily negate even a 200 fpm rate of climb. A pre-takeoff safety brief clearly defines all pre-planned emergency actions…
