-
Abort
- Indications:
- You must discontinue the takeoff
- Actions:
- Abort BOLDFACE
- Attain full aerobrake attitude
- Reposition flaps to full, below full flap touchdown speed
- Apply cautious braking below 120 KCAS
- Apply optimum braking below 100 KCAS
- Notify tower or RSU as time permits
- Prepare to engage barrier as required
-
Barrier engagement
- Indications:
- Unable to stop by the end of the runway while aborting
- Actions:
- Call Barrier, barrier, barrier 5-7 sec prior to engagement (BAK-15)
- Lock shoulder harness
- Speed brake confirm closed
- Engage perpendicular to barrier in 3 point attitude
- Release braking before engagement
- Reapply braking after impact or unsuccessful engagement
- After engagement, stop, notify controller and egress (emergency as required)
-
Hot brakes
- Indications:
- Heavy braking during a full-stop landing or abort
- Actions:
- Taxi to hot brakes area to have aircraft inspected
- Dont shutdown until instructed by ground personnel
- Considerations:
- Min interval between full stop landings is 45 min (retracted) and 15 min (extended)
-
Airspeed indicator failure
- Indications:
- Airspeed doesnt come alive during takeoff roll
- AVIONICS on HUD and MFD
- Actions:
- Abort the takeoff
- Taxi back and shut down normally
- Considerations:
- If airborne with this problem, turn pitot heat on
- Use known pitch and power or chase aircraft to recover
- .5 AOA ensures safe gear lowering speed
- .6 AOA ensures safe final approach airspeed
-
Afterburner blowout on takeoff
- Indications:
- Noticeable yaw with a loss of thrust
- Loud bang
- Nozzle closes and thrust reverts to MIL power
- Actions:
- Abort or takeoff as required based on Go/No Go speed
- Considerations:
- If airborne with normal indications in MIL, consider burning down gas
- If problem resulted from main fuel control malfunction, flameout is possible
-
Engine failure / Fire warning during takeoff, takeoff continued
- Indications:
- FIRE light, FEVER indications, ENGINE message catastrophic engine failure
- Yaw, RPM and EGT decrease with R/L GEN light single engine flameout
- Pop or buzz with RPM drop and EGT rise compressor stall
- Actions:
- Accomplish BOLDFACE
- Gear UP when airborne above SETOS + 10
- FLAPS UP as required above 200 KCAS (220 KCAS with gear stuck down)
- Considerations:
- Accelerate in a three point attitude (dont move stick forward or back)
- With left engine windmilling, gear retraction may take up to 1 min
- With gear down, best performance is at 200 KCAS with 60% flaps and 220 KCAS with flaps up
-
Tire failure during takeoff, takeoff continued
- Indications:
- Muffled bang during takeoff roll
- Vibration and settling of airplane on corresponding side
- Advised by tower, RSU, or wingman of blown tire
- Actions:
- Accomplish BOLDFACE
- Do not reposition flaps
- Burn down fuel to minimum gross weight
- Get inspected by a chase ship
- Land with the drag in the center
- Do not clear runway, change configuration or actuate flight controls
- Shut down when advised by ground personnel
- Considerations:
- If FOD causes engine damage, other BOLDFACE may apply
- May be necessary to retract gear with a significant loss of thrust
-
Landing gear retraction failure
- Indications:
- Light in the handle remains on takeoff
- Above 230 KCAS with gear locked, GEAR, GEAR voice message
- Actions:
- Airspeed maintain below 240 KCAS
- Gear lever DOWN
- With normal indications, burn off fuel and land
- With unsafe indications, try alternate gear extension
- Considerations:
- With gear down, expect to burn 600 pounds every 10 minutes
-
Single engine landing
- Indications:
- Engine failure
- Engine restricted to low power setting (e.g. compressor stall)
- Actions:
- Execute straight in approach
- Gear down
- Flaps 60%
- Flaps 100% when landing is assured
- Clear runway (if able) and shutdown
- Considerations:
- Left engine windmilling may give enough hydraulic pressure to lower gear
- Alternate gear extension takes up to 35 seconds
- Use power up to MAX as required to hold level flight and recommended speeds
- Landing roll is 500 feet longer with flaps 60% instead of full
- With left engine failure, have gear pinned before clearing runway
-
Single engine go around
- Indications:
- Must execute go around during single engine landing
- Engine failure while configured for landing
- Actions:
- Accomplish BOLDFACE
- Lower nose as required to facilitate acceleration
- Retract gear above final approach airspeed
- Retract flaps above 200 KCAS (gear up) or above 220 KCAS (gear down)
- Considerations:
- If engine is shut down for fire/FOD/frozen, do not use for go-around
- If shutdown for other malfunction or to prevent engine damage, use for go-around
- Gear retraction with windmilling utility hydraulics may take up to 1 min
-
Flap asymmetry
- Indications:
- Uncommanded roll/yaw as flaps are repositioned
- Loud bang and uncommanded roll while configured
- Actions:
- Throttles MAX
- Flaps reposition to eliminate/minimize asymmetry
- Airspeed above 180 KCAS
- AUX FLAP switch EMER
- If asymmetry persists maintain 20 KCAS above final approach speeds, do not touchdown below 165 KCAS
- Considerations:
- With flaps between up and 60% use AOA on final
-
Flap-Slab interconnect failure (abrupt pitchup)
- Indications:
- Abrupt uncommanded pitchup with flaps extended
- Actions
- Control stick full forward
- Throttles MAX
- Flaps 60%
- Landing gear UP when flight is assured
- Flaps UP above no flap flying airspeed
- Perform no flap landing (preferred)
- Considerations:
- Recover within 3 seconds to ensure recovery without altitude loss
- If flaps are necessary for landing distance, extend to 30-45% and fly AOA
-
Flap-Slab interconnect failure (smooth pitchup)
- Indications:
- Lighter/less than normal stick force/travel required for rotation
- Smooth pitchup as flaps extended
- Actions:
- Control stick forward to arrest pitchup
- Flaps reposition to up (above no flap flying airspeed)
- Perform no flap landing (preferred)
- Considerations:
- If flaps are necessary for landing distance, extend to 30-45% and fly AOA
-
No flap landing
- Indications:
- Malfunction necessitates landing with flaps up
- Actions:
- Burn down fuel weight
- Fly straight-in
- Add 15 KCAS to normal speeds
- Considerations
- No Flap landing distance is 2x(2500+fuel) past touchdown point
-
Landing gear extension failure
- Indications:
- Handle will not lower
- Handle down without combination of 3 green between 2 cockpits
- Actions:
- Try other cockpit handle
- Test unlit lights, try swapping bulbs
- Run alternate extension checklist
- Consider chase aircraft to confirm configuration
- Considerations:
- Do not taxi with unsafe indications, have pins installed
- Landing gear alternate extension
- Indications:
- Landing gear fails to extend
- Loss of utility hydraulics
- Total DC failure
- Actions:
- Airspeed below 240 KCAS
- Flaps as required (60%)
- Gear door switch open
- Gear handle down
- Landing gear alternate release handle pull
- Considerations:
- If unsuccessful, run checklist (EJ-3)
- Consider recycling gear and reattempting
- Consider removing all electrical power and reattempting
- Consider shutting left engine down, cycling flight controls, and reattempting
-
Landing with all gear up
- Indications:
- Unable to land with all gear down
- Unable to land with mains down and nose gear unsafe
- Actions:
- Run checklist (EJ-7)
- Emergency Ground Egress
- Considerations:
- Burn down fuel and fly a full flap power-on approach with minimum flare
-
Landing with nose gear unsafe
- Indications:
- Unable to land with gear all down/up
- Actions:
- Run checklist (EJ-9)
- Stop straight ahead using minimal braking (if nose gear down)
