EMERGENCY AND MALFUNCTION PROCEDURES
Section 3 of the RFM contains the procedures that must be performed in the
event of an emergency or malfunction.
The majority of the Emergency and Malfunction procedures are presented in
the form of logic trees (flow charts). These flow charts have been formulated
based on analysis and test of the cockpit indications that would be available
to the flight crew following the failures/malfunctions discussed.
In order to analyse some types of failures/malfunctions, answers to “+“, “IF“,
“AND“ and “OR“ statements may be required. In these cases, the statements
are presented in bold text as an attention getting device.
It is stressed that attention should be paid to this symbology to avoid a
mistake in the emergency/malfunction analysis and subsequent incorrect
crew action.
Required flow chart crew actions are typed in bold.
