Creating RV-12 Checklists For The Dynon SkyView – Part 5 of 8

Part 5: This post contains the text to create the following checklists:


Emergency Engine Fail Takeoff, Emergency In Air Restart, Emergency Engine Fire On Ground, Emergency Engine Fire In Air.


As mentioned in post 2, the beginning and end of each text list will be delineated by dashed lines as an aid for the reader interested in copying the lists. The first line in each list is the Title for the list and is to be copied/pasted into the appropriate line in “Checklist Titles” if using the creation tool …. the remaining lines of text are the actual list and they need to be copied/pasted into either a simple text editor if making the checklist file manually or directly into the checklist creator tool in the cell associated with the title.


Return from the future 11/21/2017: There were a couple of spelling errors and redundant second lines in the lists first posted  two days ago. The spelling has been corrected. The redundant second lines have been removed where needed ... this was done because at the time the checklists were being made, I did not realize the SkyView displays the current checklist title being viewed at the top of the checklist screen. Those who have downloaded the text files prior to today may want to use these updated checklists.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
EMERGENCY ENGINE FAIL TAKE-OFF
WARNING:
In the event of engine failure
after airborne, control stick
must be IMMEDIATELY moved
forward to prevent loss of
airspeed.

SUFFICIENT RUNWAY REMAINS
Airspeed     – 60 KIAS
               (55 KIAS min)
Throttle     – CLOSED
Land using maximum braking
after touchdown.

AIRBORNE INSUFFICIENT RUNWAY
Airspeed    – 60 KIAS
              (55 KIAS min)
Engine      – ATTEMPT RESTART
         (if altitude permits)
Fuel Valve  – OPEN/PUSH DOWN
Choke       – CHECK OPEN/PUSH
Ignition A  – VERIFY SWITCH ON
Ignition B  – VERIFY SWITCH ON
Fuel Pump   – VERIFY SWITCH ON
              CHECK PUMP FUSE
        (illuminated if blown)

IF NO RESTART IS POSSIBLE:
Select most favorable landing
area ahead.
Airspeed      – 60 KIAS
                (55 KIAS min)
Flaps         – FULL DOWN
Fuel Valve    – SHUT/PULL UP
Ignition A    – SWITCH OFF
Ignition B    – SWITCH OFF
Master Switch – OFF Just prior
                  to touchdown

WARNING:
Hold airspeed at all times and
do not attempt to turn back
toward the runway unless
sufficient altitude has been
achieved. Touchdown at minimum
airspeed particularly if
landing on rough terrain.

 
-----------------------------------------------------------
 
EMERGENCY ENGINE INAIR RESTART
Maintain Airspeed– 60 KIAS
                   55 KIAS min
Ignition A  – VERIFY SWITCH ON
Ignition B  – VERIFY SWITCH ON
Fuel Pump   – VERIFY SWITCH ON
Fuel Pump   – VERIFY FUSE OK
                (illuminated
                 if blown)
Fuel Valve   – OPEN/PUSH DOWN
Choke        – CHECK OPEN/PUSH
If restart not possible change
throttle and/or choke settings
in attempt to restart.

If unable to restart, use the
“EMERGENCY FORCED LANDING"
checklist and follow "Forced
Landing (No Power)" checklist.

NOTE:
Engine starter may be engaged
in flight should the propeller
stop wind milling. Prop will
not windmill below 80 KIAS.

PART POWER–LOSS/ROUGH RUNNING
Follow above engine restart
procedures. Land as soon as
possible using the "EMERGENCY
FORCED LANDING" checklist.
Follow “Precautionary Landing
Approach” procedures in
checklist.

 
------------------------------------------------------------
 
EMERGENCY: ENGINE FIRE GROUND
ENGINE FIRE DURING START
If the fire is believed to be
confined to intake or exhaust
system (result of flooding
engine):
Crank engine with starter
Choke         – PUSH OFF
Throttle      – FULL OPEN
Fuel Valve    – SHUT/PULL UP
Inspect aircraft thoroughly
for damage and cause prior
to restart.

ENGINE FIRE ON GROUND
If fire persists or is not
limited to intake or exhaust
system:
Fuel Valve    – SHUT/PULL UP
Ignition A    – SWITCH OFF
Ignition B    – SWITCH OFF
Electrical    – ALL SWITCHES
                OFF
Evacuate Aircraft immediately
If available, direct fire
extinguisher through the air
outlet tunnel at the bottom of
the cowl.

 
------------------------------------------------------
 
EMERGENCY: ENGINE FIRE IN AIR
Fuel Valve  – SHUT PULL UP/OFF
Ignition A  – SWITCH OFF
Ignition B  – SWITCH OFF
Air Vents   – CLOSED
Cabin Heat  – CLOSED
Airspeed    – INCREASE glide
speed to find airspeed which
provides incombustible mixture
mixture without exceeding Vne.
    (Vno if turbulence exists)
Consider side slip to divert
       smoke from pilot side.

Radio       – MAYDAY 121.5 MHz
         (or frequency in use)
Use Forced Landing Procedure

WARNING:
Do not attempt  engine restart

Before Touchdown:
Airspeed        – 60 KIAS
                  55 KIAS Min
Flaps           – DOWN after
intended landing point assured
Touchdown at minimum airspeed
particularly if landing on
rough terrain.
Master Switch   – OFF prior to
                   touchdown
