Most piston aircraft have similar emergency procedures. For engine fire,
you shut off the fuel, and increase airspeed to put out the flame. For
electrical fire, you shut off the master, turn off all equipment, turn
master on and turn one equipment on at a time to isolate the fault. For
gear failure, you use the manual gear extension procedure. The exact
procedure varies between aircraft, and whether it is electric or
hydraulic. There are many more, such as rough running engine, airframe
icing, vacuum failure etc.. The procedures are similar but there could
be small variations between models. Once you understand the main ideas
behind the emergency procedures, it is easy to adapt to the variations.

@c13g2000cwb.googlegroups.com:

Since every aircraft has a different way to approach an emergency,
which I think is the basic reason for having type-ratings individual
to
various models, how are emergency procedures taught during flight
training? Are they for just the aircraft on which the training is
imparted or are there sessions covering a whole range of popular
aircraft?

Not sure whether I've worded properly what I intend to ask. It's the
stuff other than stall/spin recoveries than that I'd like to know -
for
example, engine fire, pressurizing failure, electrical fires, some
meters behaving funnily, stuck landing gear, etc.
Cheers,
