Theory Critical Performance is rate of climb in the event of an Engine Failure Misconception: 50% loss of Power would result in 50% loss in climb performance Truth: 50% in loss of horsepower, and reduction of more than 80% climb performance Must consider all the drag and weight on dead engine
5
Planning Consideration (W&B)
Maximum ramp Weight : Maximum weight of the airplane at maximum takeoff weight plus fuel for taxi and run-up Maximum Zero Fuel Weight: Maximum weight of the loaded airplane with zero fuel. Maximum Landing Weight: Less than Maximum takeoff weight and must not be exceeded except in emergency FT=(MTOW-MLW)/5*FF FT= flight time MTOW = max takeoff weight MLW = maximum landing weight FF = Fuel flow
6
Planning Consideration (Cont’d)
Accelerated/Stop Distance : Total distance required to accelerated to Vr experience an engine failure and bring the airplane to a complete stop Accelerated/Go Distance: total distance required to continue the takeoff and climb to 50 feet, assuming an engine failure at Vr or lift-off speed.

Planning Consideration (Cont’d)
Single Engine Best Rate of Climb Speed (Vyse): Best rate of climb speed with one engine inoperative – Blue Radial Line Single Engine Best Angle of Climb (Vxse): Best angle of climb with one engine inop Minimum Control Speed (Vmc): minimum control speed with the critical engine inoperative. Marked with red radial line.(약80kts) Single engine service ceiling: Density altitude at which single engine rate of climb reduces to 50 feet per minute Single Engine Absolute Ceiling: Density altitude at which airplane cannot climb anymore. Graphic line where Vyse and Vxse meets. Single Engine Drift Down: When operating above single engine absolute ceiling, drift down to the single engine absolute ceiling. – blue line will minimize sink rate

Basic Theory

Induced Airflow The LIFT generated from the accelerated slipstream being created by the propellers. Significant to multi-engine propeller driven aircraft more than single-engine aircraft due to what? How and why does this happen? Causes a ROLLING moment Refer to Figure 3-8
10
Turning Tendencies Conventional vs. Counter-Rotating
Three major factors: 1) Accelerated Slipstream 2) Torque 3) P-Factor
11
Accelerated Slipstream
Lift produced by wing surface only Combined lift produced by induced airflow from engine and wing surface
12
Torque For every action; there is an equal and opposite reaction.
This reaction causes an unbalanced moment from the operating engine, which causes another ROLLING moment.
13
Torque cont. Engine Rotation Torque Effect
14
P-Factor Due to the thrust vector of the descending blades being further from the aircraft centerline. Multi-engine airplanes have greater left-turning tendencies than singles due to both engines, rather than one, causing the aircraft to yaw.

P-Factor cont.

Multi-Engine Ceilings
Single-Engine aircraft ceilings still apply i.e. absolute ceiling and service ceiling. In addition, we have Single-Engine Absolute Ceiling and Single-Engine Service Ceiling.
17
Multi-Engine Ceilings cont.
Single-Engine Absolute Ceiling: No further climb is possible with one engine feathered. Single-Engine Service Ceiling: A 50ft per minute climb is possible with one engine feathered.
18
Multi-Engine V-Speeds
Vmc- Minimum control speed with one engine inoperative; the speed at which when one engine is suddenly made inoperative, it is possible to regain control with either zero yaw or up to five degrees and no more than 150 pounds of rudder force at the discretion of the applicant. Why do we need to know this? Why do we have the limitations?
19
Multi-Engine V-Speeds
Vsse- Intentional one engine inoperative airspeed. This airspeed is developed by the manufacturer as the minimum airspeed for intentionally rendering one engine inoperative for the purposes of training. Roughly 10 knots above Vmc. Vxse- Best single-engine angle of climb airspeed. Used for obstruction clearance with one engine inoperative. This airspeed provides the best altitude gain over a given distance. Vyse- Best single-engine rate of climb. This airspeed gives the greatest gain in altitude in a given time period.
20
Multi-Engine V-Speeds
You cannot forget about the complex aircraft airspeeds! Vlo- Landing gear operating speed. This airspeed often varies depending on gear extension and retraction. Vle- The maximum airspeed at which the landing can be extended. Please do not forget about Flap airspeeds.

Vmc- Minimum control speed with one engine inoperative
47
FAR 23.149 § 23.149 Minimum control speed.
(a) VMC is the calibrated airspeed at which, when the critical engine is suddenly made inoperative, it is possible to maintain control of the airplane with that engine still inoperative, and thereafter maintain straight flight at the same speed with an angle of bank of not more than 5 degrees. The method used to simulate critical engine failure must represent the most critical mode of powerplant failure expected in service with respect to controllability. (b) VMC for takeoff must not exceed 1.2 VS1, where VS1 is determined at the maximum takeoff weight. VMC must be determined with the most unfavorable weight and center of gravity position and with the airplane airborne and the ground effect negligible, for the takeoff configuration(s) with -- (1) Maximum available takeoff power initially on each engine; (2) The airplane trimmed for takeoff; (3) Flaps in the takeoff position(s); (4) Landing gear retracted; and (5) All propeller controls in the recommended takeoff position throughout.
48
FAR Summary VMC (for airplanes weighing 6,000 pounds or less) is defined as the calibrated airspeed, when critical engine suddenly made inoperative, the airplane can be maintained in straight flight at same speed, with maximum bank angle of 5o, a rudder pedal force not exceeding 150 pounds, and the simulated engine failure represents most critical (with respect to controllability) expected in service. VMC must be not exceed 1.2 VS1 where VS1 is determined at the maximum takeoff weight.
49
FAR Summary Conditions Required for VMC testing & certification Most unfavorable weight Most unfavorable C.G. Ground effect negligible Maximum available power initially on each engine Airplane trimmed for takeoff Flaps in takeoff position Landing gear retracted All propeller controls in the recommended takeoff position throughout
50
FAR 23.149 – Superceded Takeoff or maximum available power
Most unfavorable C.G. Takeoff trim Maximum sea level takeoff weight Takeoff flaps Landing gear retracted Cowl flaps in normal T/O position Propeller either: windmilling in most probable position for specific design of propeller control feathered if airplane has automatic feathering device Airborne and ground effect negligible The PA-44 was certificated under a previous version FAR These “Nine Factors” of VMC are still commonly referred to in discussions involving VMC.
51
Published VMC Versus Actual VMC
A manufacturers published VMC is the minimum speed at which aircraft control can be maintained while at specific conditions. An airplane’s actual VMC will almost always be different. Normally slower.
52
When engine fails, an unbalanced moment occurs.
Vmc - The Problem Yawing Moment Due To Asymmetric Thrust Thrust Y2 The moment is equal to the operating engine’s thrust multiplied by the perpendicular distant from the thrust line to the airplane’s C.G. The unbalanced moment causes the airplane to yaw toward the failed engine. The yawing also results in a roll toward the failed engine. When engine fails, an unbalanced moment occurs.
53
Part of the Answer for Vmc
Yawing Moment due to Asymmetric Thrust Lift on Vertical Tail due to rudder deflection Yawing Moment due to Lift produced by Vertical Tail Y2 The moment into the failed engine may be balanced by a opposing moment due to lift on the vertical tail. This lift is produced by deflecting the rudder toward the good engine, creating a camber to the vertical tail.
54
Part of the Answer for Vmc
The moment created when the rudder is deflected is equal to the lift produced by the vertical tail multiplied by the perpendicular distance to the airplane’s C.G. Yawing Moment due to Asymmetric Thrust Lift on Vertical Tail due to rudder deflection Yawing Moment due to Lift produced by Vertical Tail Y2 Apply rudder into good engine
55
More Vmc Problems Loss of Rudder Effectiveness
Addition of thrust & vertical tail’s lift vectors create a resultant force which causes the airplane to sideslip. Sideslip into the dead engine causes lower angle of attack on vertical tail. The lower angle of attack degrades the vertical tail’s ability to produce the horizontal lift which counters the asymmetric thrust. Thrust Resultant Force on Airplane Rudder Effectiveness Degraded Lift on Vertical Tail due to rudder deflection Relative Wind Loss of Rudder Effectiveness
56
Part of the Answer for Vmc
Cause lift to have a horizontal force on aircraft Force causes sideslip into good engine Sideslip into good engine causes higher AoA on V.T. Higher AoA of Vertical Tail creates higher CL and greater horizontal lift At some bank/sideslip angle the vertical tail’s AoA approaches the stall AoA and the vertical tail produces maximum lift. Relative Wind Rudder MORE Effective Horizontal Wing Lift Lift Weight Thrust Dead Engine Bank into good engine Bank helps provide control at lower speed
57
More Vmc Problems As speed decreases…
the moment (thrust X distance to C.G.) produced by the operating engine remains essentially the same while the moment produced vertical tail (horizontal lift X distance to C.G.) decreases due to decreasing speed. and more and more rudder is needed to increase the vertical tail’s CL. until eventually full rudder is reached and further decreases in speed result in a loss of control. Thrust Less Relative Wind Rudder LESS Effective Horizontal Wing Lift Lift Weight Dead Engine As speed decreases… Control degrades at lower speed
58
Vmc occurs at the speed where either rudder (or aileron) is insufficient to maintain control of the airplane. To attain control at minimum speed, the airplane must be both banked and slipping toward the operating engine. Less Relative Wind Rudder LESS Effective Horizontal Wing Lift Lift Weight Thrust Dead Engine
59
More Factors Affecting Actual VMC
Power on operating engine Altitude for normally aspirated engines Throttle/RPM Condition Lever Drag from dead engine and propeller Critical or non-critical engine failed Rudder and aileron positions Sideslip and bank angle Location of C.G. Flap position Landing Gear Position Weight
60
Density Altitude & VMC VMC decreases with altitude in airplanes with normally aspirated engines. Increased density altitude causes reduced thrust/power (except for supercharged engines) Stall speed (KCAS) is relatively constant as density altitude increases If sea level Vmc is greater than stall speed, it will equal stall speed at some higher altitude. Dangerous!
61
Effect of Bank/Sideslip Angle on VMC
Actual Vmc achieved when bank toward operating engine (5o is certification limit) slip toward operating engine ball significantly toward operating engine Rule of thumb Vmc increases 3 KCAS for each degree of bank off the bank used for maximum Vertical Tail lift Best climb performance occurs with less bank no sideslip ball slightly toward operating engine higher speed

65
Effects of C.G. Location on Vmc
Rudder Moment Arm is Decreased Rudder Effectiveness Degraded Dead Engine X1 Y1 More Rudder Force Required to Maintain Control Thrust Aft C.G. Dead Engine X2 Y2 Less Rudder Force Required to Maintain Control Thrust Forward C.G. X2 > X1 VMC increases as C.G. moves aft Rudder Moment Arm is Increased Rudder Effectiveness Improved
66
Effects of C.G. Location on Vmc

67
Effect of Flap Position on Actual Vmc
Airplane specific with flaps more lift on operating engine’s wing requires aileron deflection adverse yaw associated with increased aileron adds to yawing moment with flaps, more drag on operating engine’s wing counters yawing moment with flaps, decreased AoA adds to or reduces yawing moment depending on engine which failed Remember, the lift on the wings must be equal or airplane will roll
68
Effect of Gear Position on Actual Vmc
Airplane specific Landing gear which increase drag in front of the airplane’s C.G. will degrade directional stability, increasing the demand on the rudder. Landing gear which increase drag behind the airplane’s C.G. will increase directional stability, decreasing the demand on the rudder. Airplane side area above the C.G. causes airplane to roll opposite to sideslip, increasing demands on ailerons.
69
Effect of Weight on Actual Vmc
Factors to be considered: A light airplane will produce less horizontal component of lift at any given bank angle. HOWEVER, the bank required for the sideslip that will produce maximum Vertical Tail lift is not limited (5 degrees is only for certification). A light airplane will fly at a lower AOA for any given airspeed. This affects P-Factor depending on which engine fails. A lighter airplane will require less thrust at any given airspeed.

Note: Co-rotating Engine
Engine Inoperative Flight - Roll due to Asymmetric Torque (Co-rotating Props) When an engine fails a ROLLING moment occurs. Torque moment is produced from operating engine Engine Rotation Torque Effect Dead Engine Note: Co-rotating Engine airplane shown (C-340)
74
Engine Inoperative Flight - Yaw due to Asymmetric Thrust
Dead Engine Yaw When an engine fails an asymmetric yawing moment occurs. This moment is equal to the operating engine’s thrust multiplied by the perpendicular distance from the thrust line to the airplane’s C.G. (Y1) The asymmetrical moment causes the airplane to YAW toward the failed engine. Yawing moment resulting from Asymmetric Thrust is greatest when an airplane is in a climb.
75
Engine Inoperative Flight - Yaw due to Asymmetric Drag
When an engine fails an asymmetric yawing moment occurs. This moment is equal to the drag produced by the dead engine’s wind milling propeller, multiplied by the perpendicular distant from the dead engine to the airplane’s C.G. (Y1) The asymmetric moment causes the airplane to YAW toward the failed engine. Drag Dead Engine Y1 Yaw Yawing moment resulting from Asymmetric Drag is the same in an airplane regardless of co-rotating or counter-rotating engines
76
Loss of Directional Control
How it might occur & pilot inputs to correct it. As airspeed is decreased the rudder will become less effective and therefore more rudder deflection will be required to maintain directional control. An airspeed will eventually be reached where full rudder deflection will be required to maintain directional control. Any further decrease in airspeed will lead to loss of control. Control can be regained by lowering the nose (increasing airspeed) and a sufficient reduction of power.
77
Engine Inoperative Flight Decreased Rudder Effectiveness
Unbalanced vertical tail lift vectors produces a sideslip toward the inoperative engine. The lower angle of attack (at the vertical tail) degrades the vertical tail’s capacity to produce horizontal lift which counters the YAW moment. Direction of Flight Relative Wind Thrust Vertical Tail Lift Sideslip Angle Slide illustrates a condition where pilot has made a rudder input to cancel yawing moment and maintains wings level with aileron.
78
Engine Inoperative Flight Decreased Rudder Effectiveness
Relative Wind Chord Line Less lift from Vertical tail Sideslip Condition Relative Wind More lift from Vertical tail Chord Line Zero Sideslip Condition Sideslip into dead engine causes lower angle of attack on vertical tail. Therefore rudder effectiveness is decreased.
79
Engine Inoperative Flight
As airspeed decreases: the moment (thrust X distance to C.G.) produced by the operating engine remains essentially the same while the moment produced by the vertical tail (horizontal lift X distance to C.G.) decreases due to decreasing speed. Less Relative Wind Less Horizontal Lift Horizontal Wing Lift Thrust Dead Engine X1
80
Engine Inoperative Flight
Horizontal Wing Lift Lift Weight As airspeed decreases: more and more rudder is needed to increase the vertical tail’s lift coefficient. eventually full rudder is reached and further decreases in speed result in a loss of control.
81
Loss of Directional Control - other potential causes
Partial Power Loss Manifold pressures above ambient are not available, otherwise normal Power loss sometimes proceeded by oil loss. Rough Running Aux fuel pump on high during normal operations Mixture over lean Power reduction when engines are hot. Fluctuating RPM Faulty Prop Governor Low oil quantity. Low Oil Pressure Check oil temp. Check annunciator High Oil Temperature Compare with CHT Check EGT and mixture setting Check cowl flap position High Cylinder Head Temperature Compare with oil temperature Check EGT and mixture setting.
82
Loss of Directional Control
Remember: Control can be regained by lowering the nose (increasing airspeed) and reducing power as needed.

94
Propeller Blades Oil pressure to and from the hub moves the piston (and therefore blades) to high and low pitch with the same effort. Counterweight Aerodynamic Twisting Force

Set #2 – Propeller Hub Nitrogen (N2) Pressure Spring Pressure Oil Pressure Oil pressure from the governor is used to balance N2 & Spring pressure
96
Set #2 – Propeller Hub Nitrogen (N2) Pressure Spring Pressure High Pitch Low RPM Oil Pressure When oil pressure from the governor is reduced, the N2 & Spring pressure move the piston and blades to High Pitch & Low RPM
97
Set #2 – Propeller Hub Oil Pressure Nitrogen (N2) Pressure Spring Pressure Low Pitch High RPM When oil pressure from the governor is increased, it overpowers the N2 & Spring to move the piston and blades to Low Pitch & High RPM
98
Constant speed propeller
1. High pressure oil enters the cylinder through the center of the propeller shaft and piston rod. The propeller control regulates the flow of high pressure oil from the governor.
99
Constant speed propeller
2. A hydraulic piston in the hub of the propeller is connected to each blade by a piston rod. The rod is attached to forks that slide over the pitch-change pin mounted at the blade root.
100
Constant speed propeller
3. The oil pressure moves the piston toward the front of the cylinder, moving the piston rod and forks forward.
101
Constant speed propeller
4. The forks push the pitch-change pin of each blade toward the front of the hub, causing the blades to twist toward the low pitch position.
102
Constant speed propeller
5. A nitrogen pressure charge or mechanical spring in the front of the hub opposes the oil pressure, and causes the propeller to move toward high-pitch.
103
Constant speed propeller
6. Counterweights also cause the blades to move toward the high pitch and feather positions. The counterweights counteract the aerodynamic twisting force that tries to move the blades toward a low-pitch angle.

Prop Governor – Description
Tension on the speeder spring is adjusted by using the prop levers.
107
Prop Governor – Description
Based on this tension, the pilot valve is allowed to move up or down.
108
Prop Governor – Description
Flyweights are used to create either an “overspeed” or “underspeed” condition - allowing oil pressure to either enter or exit the prop hub.
109
Prop Governor – Description
This occurs continuously in order to maintain a “constant speed.”
110
Prop Governor – Description
If the propeller is in the governing range and the propeller control lever is adjusted for a specific RPM, the governor maintains the blade pitch by varying the amount of oil pressure in the propeller hub.
111
Prop Governor – Description
For speed control, the governor uses flyweights and speeder spring to position a pilot valve, which controls oil pressure in the propeller hub. Inside the governor, an engine-driven shaft causes the flyweights to rotate in conjunction with engine speed.
112
Prop Governor – Description
As rotational speed increases, centrifugal force causes the flyweights to pivot outward, opposing the pressure applied by the speeder spring. When the flyweights move outward, they lift the pilot valve, allowing oil to flow out of the propeller hub and thereby allowing the propeller blade pitch to increase.
113
Prop Governor – Description
As the blade pitch increases, the engine and governor flyweight rotational speeds decrease. At the slower speed, speeder spring pressure overcomes the centrifugal force acting on the flyweights, causing them to move inward. The flyweight movement repositions the pilot valve to allow oil to flow into the propeller hub, thereby decreasing the propeller blade-pitch, which causes the engine speed to increase.
114
Prop Governor – Description
By balancing the pressure exerted by the centrifugal force acting on the flyweights and the speeder spring, the governor maintains a constant RPM. To select a desired RPM for the governor to maintain, you adjust the propeller control lever, which simply changes the pressure exerted by the speeder spring.

117
Propeller Feathering Feathering is accomplished following an engine failure to reduce the drag of a windmilling propeller.
118
Propeller Feathering Feathering is achieved by allowing the nitrogen charge and spring pressure to overcome the force of the engine oil pressure.
119
Power Application and Reduction
Operating an aircraft with constant speed propellers requires careful use of power. When increasing power, move levers from the right to the left Mixtures, Props, Throttles When reducing power, move levers from left to right Throttles, Props, Mixtures
120
Propeller Synchronization
Manually accomplished through the prop levers. Power is set, and then one prop lever is finely tuned to match the other. Thus eliminating the “Wah-Wahs.” Necessary for two reasons Improve passenger comfort Osculation noise produces fatigue

ENGINES -2 four cylinder -Lycoming fuel injected engines
-Each rated 200 HP at 2700 RPM -Left engine rotates in a clockwise direction -Right engine rotates counterclockwise direction when viewed from the cockpit
124
PROPELLER - Constant speed - Controllable pitch
- Full feathering Hartzell propellers - Operated by oil and nitrogen pressure - Oil pressure sends the propeller toward the high RPM or unfeather position - Nitrogen pressure sends the propeller toward the low RPM or feather position - A governor supplies oil through the propeller shaft to maintain constant RPM settings - A feathering lock, operated by centrifugal force, prevents feathering during engine shut down when speed is less than 800 RPM
125
LANDING GEAR - Electrically actuated and hydraulically operated
- Landing gear is held up by hydraulic pressure - Landing gear is held down and in locked position by spring assisted down lock hooks - Electrical ‘pressure switch’ stops the hydraulic pump motor when the hydraulic pressure reaches 1800PSIduring retracting - Electrical ‘limit switches’ stop the hydraulic pump motor when the gear is completely down and locked - Gear horn and red light will activate when …One of the throttles touches 14”MP position Gear selector is up on the ground Landing gear is traveling between up/down limit switches Flap extended more than 25 degree(2 notch) without gear down -One squat switch on the left main gear prevents gear retraction on the ground
126
Landing Gear-Abnormal
-Three green lights indicate the landing gear is down and locked When the gear selector is down and one or two green lights do not illuminated, possible conditions might exist……. a. The gear is not locked down b. The light bulb is burned out (may pull out other bulb to check) c. There is a malfunction in the indication system EMERGENCY GEAR EXTENSION PROCEDURE (USE DO CHECKLIST) 1. Reduce power – maintain airspeed below 100 MPH 2. Gear selector switch to “DOWN” position 3. Pull emergency gear extension knob 4. Check for 3 green lights
127
FLIGHT CONTROLS - Cable systems are used between the controls and the surfaces - Flaps are extended and retracted manually - Flaps have 3 extended positions 10° (160mph), 25° (140mph), 40° (125mph)

FUEL -Two 24.5 gallon tanks in each wing and are interconnected
-Outboard tank fuel flows into the inboard tank -Total 98 gallons and which 5 gallons (2 1/2 gallons on each tank) are unusable -Must use 100 (blue)/130 (green) octane -Engine driven fuel pump is primary way of supplying fuel for each engine -Electric fuel pump is used as back-up in case of engine driven fuel pump fails and for engine start (ONE ON EACH SIDE) -To extend single engine range and to keep fuel weight balance, CROSSFEED system is used to permit an engine to use fuel the opposite fuel tank.
129
-Fuel selector has three positions ON, OFF, CROSSFEED
-If cross feed is necessary, position the appropriate fuel selector to CROSSFEED to the tank that needs to be cross feed -Do not operate with both fuel selectors on CROSSFEED -Do not takeoff with a selector on CROSSFEED -There are total of 8 fuel drains… gasculator(fuel filter)(2), each fuel tank(4), each cross feed line(2) -Fuel vents – consists of a vent in each bottom of outboard fuel tank
130
ELECTRICAL -14Volt DC, negative ground electrical system
-1 main DC bus is supplied by…… -Two 60-ampere 14 volt alternators, one on each engine (Alternator makes AC but rectifier converts to DC) -One 35 –ampere-hour 12V lead acid battery (located in the nose section) -Voltage regulators – maintain load share and regulating the bus voltage to 14 volts -over voltage relays – protect equipments from regulator malfunction (red light shows when it is activated) -Alternator has advantage over generator – produce electrical output at low engine speed
131
-Ammeter – current flowing to or from the battery
-Load meter –shows load amount of current being produced by the alternator *seneca’s ammeter is load meter -Circuit breakers- protects equipments from high current from the main bus Abnormal question: 1. procedure for circuit breaker pop up? 2. how do we know if alternator fails?
132
VACUUM -1 engine driven vacuum pump on each engine so total of two
Note : vacuum pump is operated by engine power -Operates Heading indicator and Attitude indicators -Turn coordinators are operated by Electric -Regulators maintain a vacuum of 5.0 +/- 0.1 inches of Mg at 2000rpm -Vacuum less than 4.5 indicates possible instrument inaccuracy -When one vacuum fails, the valve automatically closes and vacuum is supplied by one pump -Red vacuum pump malfunction buttons appears on the face of the vacuum gauge -One pump has sufficient capacity to operate a dual set of gyro instruments up to a 12,500ft -Single pump above 12,500ft requires higher RPM to achieve adequate suction

DEFINITION Accelerate-Stop Distance Distance necessary to accelerate the airplane from a standing start to liftoff speed assuming the critical engine fails at liftoff speed and come to a full stop when liftoff speed is reached. Accelerate-Go Distance Distance required to continue a takeoff and climb to clear a 50 foot obstacle following engine failure at liftoff speed. Absolute Ceiling The density altitude where no further climb is possible with both engines at maximum power. Single Engine Absolute Ceiling The density altitude where no further climb is possible with one engine feathered. Service Ceiling The density altitude at which the aircraft can climb 100 fpm with both engines at maximum power. Single Engine Service Ceiling The density altitude at which the aircraft can climb 50 fpm with one engine feathered.

139
Preflight Preparation
Accurate computation of density altitude Single engine service ceiling Combination of high airport elevation and high temperature resulting in higher density Probability of a sustained single-engine climb to a safety circling altitude is very remote. Possibility of controlled descent to forced landing.
140
Preflight Preparation
Runway Requirement under existing conditions Accelerate-stop distance Distance required to accelerate to a specified speed and assuming an engine fails at exactly that speed, return to a full stop Sometimes double of the takeoff distance Therefore, Primary limiting factor when evaluating airplane runway requirements Obstacle clearance Available alternatives
