IGE

TWIST GRIP - IDLE

TOUCH DOWN - CUSHION

OGE

COLLECTIVE - LOWER

AIRSPEED - INCREASE

If able, transition to forward flight and proceed with TAIL ROTOR DRIVE FAILURE IN FLIGHT EP, otherwise

TOUCH DOWN - CUSHION

CAUTION: During an OGE drive failure, if unable to transition to forward flight and time permits, consider moving the twist grip to idle in order to cancel out torque during the cushion.

On final

AUTOROTATE

TWIST GRIP - IDLE (WHEN LDG ASSURED)

TOUCHDOWN - CUSHION

WARNING: Without a functioning tail rotor it is not possible to maintain ground track alignment after touch down using the pedals. Touch down must therefore be made with minimum forward speed to reduce the risk of inducing dynamic rollover.

NOTE: The airspeed at which coordinated flight is achieved will vary.

AIRSPEED - 70 KTS LEVEL FLIGHT

HYD TST - PRESS

HYD TST - RESET AFTER 5 SEC

Land as soon as practical
Shallow approach with left sideslip
Run-on landing

CAUTION: Landing is made easier with a right-quartering headwind. If the airspeed is lower than 20 KIAS, go-around is impossible due to the decreased efficiency of the fin.

If oil pressure is normal maintain Ng below the following:

Land as soon as practical

On ground

Do not attempt to start the engine

In flight

Comply with Ng limitations
Land as soon as practical

If Nr and NTL values agree:

If reading does not rise to governed value:

Refer to Governor Failure EP’s

If Nr reading exceeds NTL (except in autorotation):

Refer to Nr Indicator Failure EP

If NTL reading exceeds Nr:

On ground during the starting sequence

Reduce twistgrip to check for freewheel slippage

In flight

Refer to Nr Indicator Failure EP

TORQUE - MAINTAIN ABOVE 10%

NR - READ ON NTL POINTER

LAND - AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Slowly move collective (torque above 10%)

If Nr does not remain in governed range:

LAND - AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

If Nr remains in governed range:

Land as soon as practical

In hover

HYD PRESSURE SWITCH - OFF

LAND NORMALLY

In flight

HYD PRESSURE SWITCH - OFF

HYD LIGHT EP - ACCOMPLISH

CAUTION: Hovering HYD OFF is extremely demanding and should only be attempted if absolutely necessary. In the event of a Yaw servo-control slide-valve seizure in a hover with no rotation consider maintaining hydraulic pressure throughout the landing.

NOTE: Load feedback will be felt immediately and may be heavy if the helicopter is flying at high speed:

Collective pitch: Approximately 20 kg load increase.

Cyclic: Approximately 7-12 kg left-hand cyclic load and 2-4 kg forward cyclic load.

Yaw pedals: Practically no load in cruising flight.

If bleed valve does not close as specified max available engine power is reduced.

If bleed valve does not open as specified engine surge may result:

Avoid sudden power variations
Land as soon as practical

If the aircraft network is energized:

Confirm D BAT push-button is engaged

If light remains on the direct battery circuit is disconnected:

Land as soon as practical

NOTE: Engagement of the CUT OFF push-button causes illumination of the D BAT push-button.

A.P. light flashes for 10 sec., GYRO light illuminates or gyro horizon flag appears. Pitch and roll channels disengage and monitoring unit fails.

Manually control the A/C (HDG, ALT and AS modes are inoperative)
Continue flight in accordance with MEL

A.P. light flashes for 10 sec. and the H.S.I. flag appears. Yaw channel disengages.

Manually control the A/C (HDG and T/C modes are inoperative)
Continue flight in accordance with MEL

A.P. light flashes for 10 sec., disengagement of faulty channel and a hardover to the defective axis.

Manually control the A/C
Disengage the faulty channel
Continue flight in accordance with MEL

TRIM light illuminates for 10 sec., momentary movement in direction of failure and disengagement of defective trim.

Manually control the A/C
Press the trim release pushbutton
Press TRIM P or TRIM R as applicable - Recenter faulty channel via trim release as required
Continue flight in accordance with MEL

TRIM RELEASE SWITCH - PRESS AND HOLD

If blockage persists

SHEAR PIN - BREAK (+10 KG FORCE)

Land as soon as practical

If blockage disappears

Press the FEEL REL pushbutton
Continue flight in accordance with MEL

Avoid abrupt maneuvers and maintain angle of bank below 30°.

AUTOPILOT - DISENGAGE

In flight

AIRSPEED - ADJUST

HYD PRESSURE SWITCH - OFF

Land as soon as practical
Fly a shallow approach
Perform a run-on landing at low speed
Perform a normal engine shut down

Hover IGE, Takeoff and Final (if landing within 30 sec. is possible):

Land normally
Perform a normal engine shut down

WARNING: As control loads increase, be careful not to inadvertently move twist grip out of flight position.

WARNING: Do not depress HYD TEST as this will result in heavy pedal control loads.

WARNING Do not attempt hover flight or any low speed maneuvers as this will result in excessive pilot workload, poor aircraft control and possible loss of aircraft control.

CAUTION: The pilot may have to jettison external loads if control load is found to be too significant at safe speed.

NOTE: Accumulators will compensate hydraulic pressure loss for a limited operation of the main rotor controls allowing to secure flight conditions and to establish hydraulic failure safety speed (40-60 KIAS). Each control input will deplete HYD pressure in the accumulators. If unsure whether the landing can be accomplished before HYD pressure depletion, or if failure occurs in hover OGE, consider proceeding to forward flight.

NOTE: Do not silence the horn with the HORN switch. The horn will be silenced when the pilot selects the hydraulic system cut-off switch to OFF.

NOTE: Speed may be increased as necessary, but control loads will increase with speed.

POWER - REDUCE

LAND - AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

NOTE: The MGB has passed a bench test consisting in running the gearbox for 45 min. with zero oil pressure at the power corresponding to minimum power in level flight (at 55 KIAS).
