TAKEOFF BRIEFING – CM1
• This will be a left/right seat take off. Standard calls, 70/90 knots, V1, Rotate.
• If any malfunction occurs Before V1, you will announce the malfunction, I will call “STOP! MY
CONTROLS” or “GO”.
• If the call is STOP! MY CONTROLS, I will select ground idle, apply brakes / reverse as required to
bring the aircraft to a complete stop. You will monitor deceleration and advise ATC.
• When the aircraft has stopped and parking brakes are set, I will carry out the memory items.
• If the malfunction occurs After V1, take off shall be continued. No actions shall be taken other than
silencing of Aural Warnings, retracting the landing Gear, advancing the PLs and Manual Feathering of
the failed engine if required, until 400 feet AGL and aircraft flight path stabilized.

Clean up, memory items, procedures and strategy for engine failure / fire should also be briefed e.g.
In case of engine failure with no auto up trim, PL will be manually advanced to the ramp.
With engine failure and no auto feather, PL will not be reduced before CL is set to feather.
