ENGINE FAILURE BEFORE V1
OPS

www.B737MRG.net FOR INFO ONLY - DO NOT USE IN OPERATION
REJECT










- Call-out (e.g. "STOP", "REJECT", "ABANDON",)

- Stop the aircraft : - close Thrust Levers (disconnect A/T)
- apply maximum Brakes (*)
- extend Speed Brakes
- set maximum Reverse Thrust (*)

- Set Parking Brakes, stow Reversers and Speed Brakes

- Inform ATC about the rejected takeoff

- Advise cabin crew via public address
(e.g. "ATTENTION, CABIN CREW ON STATION" - 2x)

(*) MAN - Maximum brakes and maximum reverse thrust at low speed
may be neither necessary nor useful. Apply reverse thrust consistent
with conditions and maintain maximum brakes until certain the airplane
will stop on the runway.


NON-NORMAL PROCEDURE (Engine fire)


- Recall Items : - Thrust Lever IDLE
- Start Lever CUTOFF
- Engine Fire Warning Switch
PULL and (if required) ROTATE

- Wait 30 seconds - Meanwhile look outside of the window
and request visual feedback from Tower

- If the fire warning persists, ROTATE to remaining bottle










EVACUATION

- Accomplish the NNC [EVACUATION]



It is suggested that the Captain performs an inspection of the cabin to make
sure everybody has abandoned the airship. The FO descents and directs
all passengers away from any danger.


NO EVACUATION

- Advise cabin crew to resume normal operations
(e.g. "RESUME NORMAL OPERATION" - 2x)

- Advise ATC about intentions
- Request the fire equipment nearby (hot brakes)
- Vacate the runway or remain in position for brake cooling

ACCELERATION DURING OR AFTER EFP TURNS

The engine failure route may comprise one or more turns. Depending on your company
procedures, acceleration to flaps up speed before or during these turns may or may not be
allowed.
If acceleration is not allowed in EFP turns and the EFFRA is reached before all turns are
completed, you may not level-off to accelerate. Use the available thrust to continue climb
above the EFFRA.

Now, whether acceleration during EFP turn(s) is allowed or not is independent
from the laptop perf tool you are using or the software application that was used to
calculate the paper printed weight book. Two airlines using the same laptop perf tool
(such as the Boeing Onboard Performance Tool) may have different procedures for
acceleration during EFP turns !

In fact, it depends on the obstacle database that is used behind the software. The cone of
obstacles accounted for during an EFP turn is defined by an inside border (the track flown
at low gross weight, a specific bank angle and the speed at V
2
) and an outside border (the
track flown with heavy weight, a specific bank angle and the speed at V
2
+ margin).
When acceleration during EFP-turns is allowed, the outside border will be taken wider and
the cone will hold more obstacles, which may result in an additional performance penalty.

OPS Verify the introduction section of your laptop perf software or printed weight
book.


ENGINE FAILURE AFTER V1
The engine failure procedure is calculated for an engine failure at V
1
. The cone
of obstacles starts from this specific point on the runway.
For an engine failure on ground but after V
1
(i.e. between V
1
and V
R
), the EFP and EFFRA
can be flown, but are theoretically not valid anymore.

In case an engine fails after takeoff, the best escape route is up to pilot's sound judgment !

Either you rejoin the EFP or you remain on the SID if you are sure that obstacles on the
departure route are cleared. Remember that your climb gradient on two engines was
4 times more than what you have now on single engine ! Compare the minimum required
climb gradient for the SID with your actual altitude and performance.
Some airlines publish a so called "SID Deviation Point" ; when an engine fails on the SID
before reaching this point, the pilot should rejoin the EFP. After this point the pilot can
stay on the SID and adequate obstacle clearance on the departure route is guaranteed.

Unless your destination is also your takeoff alternate, you will probably not continue to
your destination on one engine. So, why should you continue on the SID ? A turn
towards a nearby holding fix or a turn towards the takeoff alternate aerodrome are other
options to consider.

ENGINE FAILURE IN FLIGHT
The B73 7-steps to handle an engine failure in cruise :


1- Disconnect the Autothrottle

Autopilot LNAV and VNAV (one engine INOP) remain available.
Use rudder trim.


2- Select MCT on the remaining engine

Refer to PI [Engine INOP / MCT] or select ENG OUT on the
FMC CRZ page


3- Perform recall items (if any)


4- Maintain cruise FL while airspeed decreases till single engine drift down speed

This will take several minutes
Refer to PI or to the FMC Engine Out page for drift down speed


5- Accomplish the NNC [ENGINE FIRE / FAILURE ]


6- Descend to single engine net level off altitude

Refer to the FMC Engine Out page
or PI [Engine INOP / MCT / Driftdown Speed - Level Off Altitude]

Verify terrain obstacle height - Set the altimeter to local QNH
in case the local QNH is below 1,013.25 hPa / 29.92 Hg


7- Select LRC on the remaining engine

FPPM 3.3.x [Enroute Engine Inop / Single Engine - MCT - LRC]


www.B737MRG.net FOR INFO ONLY - DO NOT USE IN OPERATION
ENGINE FAILURE ON FINAL
The B73 7-steps to handle an engine failure on final approach :


1- Failure announcement ; "Engine failure" - "Engine fire" -

2- Forward Thrust Lever (remaining engine)

FCTM 5.x [Engine Failure on Final Approach]

(CL) If it is decided to continue approach, retract flaps to 15.

(NG) If it is decided to continue approach and sufficient thrust is available
on the remaining engine, continue approach with Flaps 30/40.
If approach is continued, but a safe profile cannot be maintained or
continuance with F30/F40 is not in line with your company policy,
continue with the following steps :

3- Flaps 15

4- Five degrees body attitude is required for a 3 degree slope (CL) - 2.5 (NG)

5- Fly (CL) Outer bug (400) Outer bug + 5 kts (*)
(NG) Top bug (white bug) (800-900-BB2) Top bug + 5 kts (*)

(*) This 5kt margin is required to obtain an approach speed equal to
Vref F15 in order to provide adequate maneuver margin
(particularly in case of go-around) and to avoid tail strike.

6- Flap Override on the (E)GPWS to INHIBIT

7- Field length verification

When inbound to a short runway and configuration was changed to
Flaps 15 (higher speed and increased tendency to float during flare)
consider to go-around, especially at high landing weights or when not
established on profile and speed. Only 1 engine reverser is available.



Consider to delay the recall items for engine failure / fire until full stop, especially when
below 400 feet AGL.


GO-AROUND

Maintain Flaps 15 until speed is at and above (300-500) Outer bug (400) Outer
bug + 5 kts (600-700-BBJ) Top bug (800-900-BB2) Top bug + 5 kts !


ENGINE FIRE ON SHORT FINAL DURING CAT II-III APPROACH

In case of engine fire without loss of thrust and airplane configured Flaps 30/40,
consider to :
Continue approach
No actions until full stop (do not retard Thrust Lever in flight)
Emergency evacuation (as required)
www.B737MRG.net FOR INFO ONLY - DO NOT USE IN OPERATION

ENGINE FAILURE (additional info)
ADDITIONAL THRUST REQUIRED FOR GO-AROUND



High landing weight
High OAT
Additional go-around thrust required
High field elevation
Obstacles in go-around area
OR



- Verify obstacles in go-around area :

FPPM 1.4.x [Engine Inop / Single Engine go-around Climb Gradient]

- With the APU available :

Select bleeds OFF (both operating and failed engine)
Operate the Left Pack on the APU

- With the APU not available :

Configure for SP 2.x [Unpressurized Takeoff and Landing]

Adjust go-around thrust setting with N1 + 0.9%



WING ANTI-ICE

- The Isolation Valve should never be opened in case of an engine fire that
cannot be extinguished.
- Never apply wing anti-ice when the APU is the only bleed source !
- Set-up for "wing anti-ice" cannot be combined with "Additional go-around thrust".



PRESSURIZATION

- Bleed on the operating engine can supply : - pressurization
- wing anti-icing (both wings)

- Bleed from the APU can be used for : - pressurization only



OVERWEIGHT LANDING

With one engine inoperative, disregard maximum landing weight limitation
and land overweight ! An ASR/TFIR must be filed.
