CESSNA SECTION 3
MODEL 208B G1000 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
ENGINE FAILURE (Continued)
While gliding toward a suitable landing area, an effort should be made
to identify the cause of the power loss. An engine failure might be
identified by abnormal temperatures, mechanical noises or high
vibration levels in conjunction with the power loss. A flameout will be
noticed by a drop in ITT, torque and% N g.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to restart an engine that is definitely
known to have failed.
A flameout can result from the engine running out of fuel, or by unstable
engine operation. Unstable engine operation such as a compressor
surge (possible due to a bleed valve malfunction) can be identifiable by
an audible popping noise just before flameout. Once the fuel supply
has been restored to the engine or cause of unstable engine operation
eliminated, the engine can be restarted.
The best airstart technique is to initiate the relight procedure
immediately after a flameout occurs, provided the pilot is certain that
the flameout was not the result of some malfunction that might make it
hazardous to attempt a relight.
Regardless of airspeed or altitude, there is always the possibility that
the engine can light up successfully just as soon as the ignition is
turned on. In an emergency, turn on the ignition just as soon as
possible after flameout, provided the gas generator speed has not
dropped below 50%. Under these circumstances, it is not necessary to
shut off the fuel or feather the propeller. The POWER lever, however,
should be retarded to IDLE position.
CAUTION
The pilot should determine the reason for power loss
before attempting an airstart.
If a flameout has occurred and the gas generator speed has dropped
below 50%, the FUEL CONDITION lever should be moved to the
CUTOFF position before an airstart is attempted.
