Engine Failure On Takeoff (Low Altitude)
If the engine fails immediately after becoming airborne, abort on the
runway if possible. If altitude precludes a runway stop but is not
sufficient to restart the engine, lower the nose to maintain airspeed
and establish a glide attitude. In most cases, the landing should be
made straight ahead, turning only to avoid obstructions. After
establishing a glide for landing, perform as many of the checklist items
as time permits.
• WARNING •
If a turn back to the runway is elected, be very careful not to
stall the airplane.
