Engine and Related Systems Malfunctions
III. Engine failure on takeoff 1.5.3.1.5.4.1
A. Indications
1.
Tactile: vibrations and sudden loss of acceleration
2.
Aural: unusual noise followed by sound of engine winding down
B. Verifications
1. Engine rpm too low
2. EGT too low
3. Fuel flow too low
4. Difficulty in maintaining airspeed
C. Effects on flight safety
NOTE: If an abort is possible, the effects will vary depending on the
amount of runway, density altitude, and the weight and speed of the
aircraft. Prior to rotation, abort is required with possibility of a field
arrestment.
1. Loss of thrust
2. Inability to maintain flight
3. Possible fire
4. Possible stall after rotation
IV. Engine fire 1.5.3.1.5.1.1, 1.8.1.1.1.1, 1.8.1.1.2.1, 1.8.1.1.3.1, 1.10.5.3.1.1
A. Indications
1. Warning tone sounds
2. MASTER ALERT flashes
3. FIRE light illuminates
NOTE: The FIRE light may illuminate momentarily, then go out.
This does not indicate the absence of a fire. It could mean, for
example, that a fire has burned the wires carrying the signals that
enable the FIRE light. It could also indicate a malfunction in the
centralized warning system (i.e., a false indication). To verify that
an engine fire does exist, secondary indications must be present.
