• Turn to new course as soon as possible
• Use rule of thumb computations, estimates and shortcuts
Engine Temperature
• Oil cools the internal portion of the engine
• High temperature is often a sign of low oil level
Heating System• Heating in most aircraft is by
exhaust manifold-type
• Crack in the system can allow carbon monoxide into the cabin
• If your aircraft backfires during run up, have it checked

Spatial Disorientation
• Rely on instrument indications
• Ignore body sensations
Emergency Descent• Reduce the throttle to idle
• Roll into a bank angle of approximately 30-45 degrees
• Set propeller to low pitch ( High RPM)
Emergency Descent
• Extend landing gear and Flap as recommended by the manufacturer
• Do not exceed VNE, VLE, VFE, or VA if turbulent
Best Glide Speed
• Gear and Flaps retracted
• Propeller to low RPM (High Pitch)
• Pitch
• Trim
Best Glide Speed
• Checklist
• Any deviation from the best glide speed will reduce the distance you can glide
Lost Procedures
• Climb
• Communicate
• Confess
• Comply
• Conserve
Lost Procedures
