If oil temperature
remains high and the oil temperature warning light stays on after opening the
oil cooling flaps shutdown the corresponding engine, stabilize the aircraft and
let the lubrication system cool down. After that try a restart of the engine
and check the oil pressure after starting. If the oil pressure warning light
comes up again shutdown the engine and prepare an emergency landing.
Electric failures
Before trying to
reactivate the generator search for the reason of the fault. Possible reasons
could be an airstart with a running generator (overcurrent) or an airstart
while the generator charges the battery. This mostly also causes a complete
electrical fault of the battery, essential and nonessential busses.
One Generator
fault in flight
If the engine
failure warning light of the corresponding engine is also on please see the
emergency procedures for engine failure.
