Emergency Procedures

How many of you have memorized all the emergency procedures.

Well, lessee here. I think I have the engine-out down and the fire-in-the-hole one.
I'm also pretty good at the "Ohmygodwherethehellarewe" one. I'm not sure I have the
theres-an-f16-off-the-right-wing one memorized, though. What else do we have?

On a side note, I'm a bit confused about a partial engine failure. Say the
engine loses a valve and runs VERY rough. Should I continue flying with that
engine in hopes of making a runway, or shut the engine down to prevent it
from ripping itself off the airplane and turning me into a large paper
weight.

Well, I kept the engine going until I got it down, but I had a runway in sight. If
there's really serious reason to believe that the engine will depart the aircraft,
get it down ASAP. That plays hell with your W&B.

This marriage is off to a shaky start. The groom just asked the band to
play "Your cheatin' heart", and the bride just requested "Don't come home
a'drinkin' with lovin' on your mind".
