Flaps Fail to Extend

Practice silences are omitted. Timestamps open the corresponding point on YouTube.

1. 0:00 NARRATOR: Chapter 153. Here is the scenario: Your flaps do not extend during approach.
2. 0:05 Practice communicating the problem and discussing your landing plans.
3. 0:10 NARRATOR: Your starting details: You are flying Evektor, registration N827EV. You are
4. 0:17 on final for runway 34R, indicated altitude 1600 feet. You are tuned to Paine Tower. You
5. 0:26 have ATIS information Alpha.
6. 0:31 NARRATOR: Play the pilot. At each prompt, use the ten-second pause to respond aloud or
7. 0:36 decide whether to transmit. Then compare with the example. This is simulated radio
8. 0:41 practice.
9. 0:44 NARRATOR: Scenario update: The scenario starts with you final for runway 34R.
10. 0:48 Initial contact has already been established; there is no outstanding
11. 0:51 clearance to enter or land on the runway.
12. 0:56 NARRATOR: Scenario update: On final, the flaps remain fully retracted despite
13. 1:01 selection. There is no asymmetric roll and the airplane remains controllable with
14. 1:06 normal engine power. Runway suitability for a no-flap landing has not been confirmed.
15. 1:12 This is a communications-only exercise, not an aircraft emergency checklist. Aviate
16. 1:17 first.
17. 1:20 NARRATOR: Your task: State your problem, position and requested assistance. Keep
18. 1:24 flying the airplane; the practice pause is not operational delay.
19. 1:38 PILOT: Paine Tower, Evektor 827EV, on final runway 34R, Flaps have not extended, going
20. 1:44 around. Request a runway suitable for a no-flap landing.
21. 1:49 TOWER: Evektor 827EV, roger, advise if further assistance is needed
22. 1:56 NARRATOR: Your task: For this exercise, there are 2 people on board and estimated
23. 2:01 usable fuel is 45 minutes. Your indicated altitude is 1600 feet and heading is 360.
24. 2:06 Give only what workload permits; these are scenario facts, not a checklist.
25. 2:20 PILOT: Flaps remain fully retracted, no asymmetric roll, engine power normal. I need
26. 2:25 to confirm landing distance for the no-flap configuration, Evektor 827EV
27. 2:31 NARRATOR: End of this exercise: End of the radio decision exercise. The stated
28. 2:35 condition remains unresolved; no landing, rescue, repair or medical outcome is
29. 2:39 assumed. Continue the appropriate aircraft-specific procedures and assistance
30. 2:42 coordination.
31. 2:44 NARRATOR: Chapter debrief: Communications exercise ends with the stated condition
32. 2:48 unresolved; subsequent aircraft handling is outside scope.
