d.
Landing With Nose Gear Unsafe. If the LDG
GEAR CONTROL warning light is illuminated and
the nose GEAR DOWN LIGHT shows an unsafe
condition, the nose gear is probably not locked down,
and the gear position should be checked visually by
another aircraft, if possible. If all attempts to lock the
nose gear fail, a landing should be made with the
main gear down and locked. Hold the nose off the
runway as long as possible and do not use brakes.
Use the following procedures:
1.
Crew emergency briefing Complete.
2.
Loose equipment Stowed.
3.
Bleed air valves ENVIRO OFF.
4.
Cabin pressure switch DUMP.
5.
Cabin emergency hatch Remove and
stow.
6.
Seat belts and harnesses Secured.
7.
Nonessential
electrical
equipment
OFF.
NOTE
Fly a normal approach to
touchdown. After landing,
accomplish the following:
8.
Condition levers FUEL CUTOFF.
9.
Fire pull handle Pull.
10.
Master switch OFF.
e.
Landing With One Main Gear Unsafe. If one
main landing gear fails to extend, retract the other
gear and make a gear-up landing. If all efforts to
retract the extended gear fail, land the aircraft on a
hard runway surface, touching down on the same
edge of the runway as the extended gear. Roll on
the down and locked gear, holding the opposite wing
up and the nose gear straight as long as possible. If
the gear has extended, but is unsafe, apply brakes
lightly on the unsafe side to assist in locking the
gear. If the gear has not extended or does not lock,
allow the wing to lower slowly to the runway. Use the
following procedures:
1.
Crew emergency briefing Complete.
2.
Loose equipment Stowed.
3.
Bleed air valves ENVIRO OFF.
4.
Cabin pressure switch DUMP.
5.
Cabin emergency hatch Remove and
stow.
6.
Seat belts and harnesses Secured.
7.
Nonessential electrical equipment
OFF.
8.
Touchdown On safe main gear first.
NOTE
Fly a normal approach to
touchdown. After landing,
accomplish the following:
9.
Condition levers FUEL CUTOFF.
10.
Fire pull handle Pull.
11.
Master switch OFF.
f Landing With Flat Tire(s). If aware that a
main gear tire(s) is flat, a landing close to the edge of
the runway opposite the flat tire will help avoid
veering off the runway. If the nose wheel tire is flat,
use minimum braking.
