- Back
|
Land Immediately:
|
- Land on the nearest clear area
- Where a safe / normal landing can be performed - Be prepared to Auto |
|
|
Land As Soon As Practical:
|
- Land at nearest Airport or Facility
- Where emergency maintainence can be performed |
|
|
Power Failure General:
|
May be caused either by:
- Engine failure or - Drive system failure Engine Failure: - Change In Noise Level - Left nose yaw - Oil pressure light - Decreasing engine RPM Drive System Failure: - Unusual noise - Right/Left nose yaw - Decreasing rotor RPM - Increasing engine RPM |
|
|
Power Failure at 500'+ AGL:
|
1. Lower Collective to maintain rotor RPM
2. Establish a steady glide - 65 KIAS 3. Adjust Collective to keep Rotor RPM In green arc 4. Select landing spot into wind 5. Restart attempt at Pilot discretion 6. No Restart: - Turn Off all unnecessary switches - Shut off fuel 7. At 40' AGL - Start cyclic flare to reduce rate of decent & FWD airspeed 8. At 8' AGL - FWD cyclic to level ship 9. Raise Collective Just before Impact to cushion landing NOTE: - Touchdown In level attitude, nose straight |
|
|
What is the Restart Procedure:
|
*Restart Procedure*
- Mixture full rich - Primer down & locked - Throttle closed, then slightly cracked - Actuate starter with left hand |
|
|
Power Failure Between 8' & 500' AGL:
|
1. Takeoff should be conducted per Height / Velocity Diagram
2. Immediate down collective to maintain rotor RPM 3. Adjust Collective to keep rotor RPM in green arc 4. Maintain airspeed until ground approaches 5. As ground approaches: - Start cyclic fare to reduce rate of decent & FWD airspeed 6. At 8' AGL - FWD Cyclic to level Ship 9. Raise Collective Just before impact to cushion landing |
|
|
Power Failure Below 8' AGL:
|
1. Immediate right pedal to prevent yaw
2. Allow aircraft to settle 3. Raise collective Just before Impact to cushion landing |
|
|
Max Glide Configuration:
|
- 90% Rotor RPM
- 75 KIAS |
|
|
Ditching - Power Off:
|
1. Follow same procedures as over land Power Failure
- Until water contact 2. Apply lateral cyclic to stop blades 3. Release seat belts 4. Clear aircraft |
|
|
Ditching - Power On:
|
1. Descend to hover above water
2. Unlatch doors 3. Allow passengers to Exit 4. Fly to safe distance for passengers 5. Switch Off - Master battery switch - Alternator 6. Roll off throttle 7. Keep level / allow aircraft to settle 8. Pull full collective on water contact 9. Apply lateral cyclic to stop blades 10. Release seat belts 11. Clear aircraft |
|
|
Loss Of Tail Rotor Thrust - In Forward Flight:
|
- Indicated by a right nose yaw
- Can not be corrected by left pedal 1. Immediately enter autorotation 2. Maintain at least 70 KIAS 3. Select landing site 4. Roll off throttle 5. Perform autorotation landing |
|
|
Loss Of Tail Rotor Thrust - During Hover:
|
- Indicated by a right nose yaw
- Can not be corrected by left pedal 1. Roll off throttle 2. Allow aircraft to settle 3. Raise collective Just before impact to cushion landing |
|
|
Engine Fire - During Start (Ground):
|
- Continue cranking
*Engine Start* - Run @ 50% To 60% for a short time - Shut Down - Inspect *No Engine Start* - Shut off Fuel - Shut off Master Battery - Extinguish / Inspect |
|
|
Engine Fire - In Flight:
|
- Immediately enter Auto
- Master Battery: Off - Cabin Heat: Off - Cabin Vent: Open *Engine On* - Normal Landing - Shut off Fuel - Extinguish - Inspect *Engine Off* - Shut off fuel - Execute autorotation landing - Extinguish / Inspect |
|
|
Electrical Fire - In Flight:
|
- Master Battery: Off
- Alternator: Off - Land Immediately - Extinguish / Inspect NOTE: - No Governor - No Low RPM Warning System w/ Master Batt & Alt off |
|
|
Tach Failure:
|
1 Of 2 Tachs Fail:
- Use remaining Tach Both Tachs Fail: - Use Governor - Land As Soon As Practical |
|
|
Governor Failure:
|
- Grip Throttle Firmly
- Switch Gov. Off - Complete Flight w/ Manual Throttle Control |
|
|
Oil Pressure Light:
|
- Check engine tach for power loss
- Check oil pressure gage - If lost oil pressure - land Immediately |
|
|
Clutch Light:
|
Less Than 10 Seconds:
- Ignore Flickering or light on for more than 10 Seconds: - Pull clutch circuit beaker - Land as soon as practical If other indication of drive system failure - Reduce power - Land immediately - Be prepared to enter autorotation |
