Abstract

Turning back after engine failure during the takeoff phase of flight in a single-engine aircraft is reexamined to determine the penalties for using nonoptimum parameters. The effects of using nonoptimum parameters is least for small variations in initial climb speed increasing when using bank angles less than the optimum 45 deg bank angle and most critical when using higher speeds in the turn. Comparisons with typical general aviation recommendations for lower bank angles and higher speeds in the turn are drawn, all of which are found to be significantly nonoptimal.
