This concerns an engine failure (C680) close to or on final approach to landing. The Aircraft Operation Manual (AOM) has actions and call outs for an engine failure during takeoff and for a single-engine go-around. Also; there is a QRC for Inflight Engine Shutdown. However; no guidance is provided in the AOM for an engine failure on final. The assumption is we don't use the Cessna emergency/abnormal checklist for an engine failure (QRC should be utilized). My concern is there is no guidance to follow the manufacturer's direction to set flaps to 15; Vapp for speed or any other directive as stated in the Cessna Engine Failure during Final Approach checklist. Pilots who flew the 680 prior to the AOM implementation know this. New transition pilots might not know the information provided in this checklist. The Engine Inoperative Approach QRC assumes the Inflight Engine Shutdown QRC has been completed. This is inadequate in my opinion if the failure is close to the airport. Add a new QRC for Engine Failure Close-in or During Final Approach.
A C680 Captain recommended that his company add a procedure in the QRC for an engine failure on final approach.
