Title:
Aircraft Engine Power Loss
Topic:
Reciprocating Engine Power-Loss Accident Prevention and Trend Monitoring
Speaker(s):
Heather Metzler
Brief Description:
Reciprocating engines are the engine of choice for small single-engine and multi-engine aircraft due to their reliability. Despite improvements in engine design and performance over the years, a review of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) database shows that powerplant system malfunctions remain the defining event for personal flying accidents. The FAA believes many of these engine power-loss accidents can be avoided if the owner/operator institutes a comprehensive training program for pilots and mechanics and incorporates a trend monitoring program.
