Elements and Performance Criteria
- Operate a multi-engine aeroplane in all phases of flight
- Normal operations of multi-engine aeroplane type on the ground and in flight are conducted in accordance with the aircraft flight manual (AFM), pilot’s operating handbook (POH) and company operating procedures
- Asymmetric operations for all phases of flight are anticipated and contingencies are planned
- Plan of action is self-briefed or briefed to crew members to ensure safest outcome in asymmetric operations
- Manage engine failure/malfunction in flight
- Control of aeroplane is maintained and/or regained during implementation of emergency response procedures
- Failed/malfunctioning engine is identified and confirmed
- Power set on serviceable engine/s and aeroplane configuration is adjusted to achieve desired aeroplane performance
- Failed/malfunctioning engine is managed
- Indicated airspeed is maintained above minimum controllable airspeed (Vmca)
- Air traffic control (ATC) or another agency capable of assistance is advised of situation and intentions
- Recovery or diversion to appropriate aerodrome is evaluated and conducted
- Manage engine failure/malfunction after take-off
- Engine failure/malfunction is managed after take-off while control of aircraft flight path is maintained
- Initial climb not less than best engine out angle of climb speed (VX) or best engine out rate of climb speed (VY) until clear of obstacles, then VY is maintained
- Perform rejected take-off
- Take-off is aborted prior to speed beyond which take-off can no longer be safely aborted (V1)or at a decision point during take-off where abort procedure can be initiated and aeroplane stopped on remaining runway/stopway
- Power is reduced smoothly and promptly
- Spoilers, prop fine/reverse, thrust reverse, wheel brakes and other drag and braking devices are activated
- Positive control is maintained to bring aeroplane to a safe stop
- Engine failure procedures and/or checklists are initiated and completed
- Manage engine failure/malfunction during approach/landing
- Control of aeroplane flight path is maintained during implementation of emergency response procedures
- Engine inoperative approach is performed
- Decision is made to continue or abort approach/landing
- Decision height for landing is nominated
- ATC or other agency capable of providing assistance is advised of situation and intentions
- Smooth, positively-controlled flight profile is flown, from which a controlled landing could be achieved
- Positive directional control is maintained and cross-wind corrections are applied during after-landing roll while maintaining centreline within tolerances
- Spoilers, prop reverse, thrust reversers, wheel brakes, and other drag or braking devices are applied to bring airplane to a safe stop after landing
- Conduct go-around or missed approach with engine failure
- Engine failure in a multi-engine aeroplane during a go-around or missed approach is identified and confirmed
- Engine inoperative go-around is performed from decision height
