ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Demonstrate, describe, and explain effects of various airspeeds and configurations during engine inoperative performance.

Bottom line

No engine failure should ever be introduced below safe, intentional one-engine inoperative speed (VSSE). For spin avoidance when practicing engine failures, the flight instructor should pay strict attention to the maintenance of proper airspeed and bank angle as the learner executes the appropriate procedure.
