Simulate securing the inoperative engine.

ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Simulate securing the inoperative engine.

Bottom line

When an instructor simulates an engine failure, the learner should respond with the appropriate memory items and retard the appropriate propeller control toward the FEATHER position. If workload permits, then accomplish the “Securing Failed Engine” checklist items to turn off systems and accessories no longer required. No intentional engine failure in flight should ever be performed below Vsse.
