Q

Wave Hazard Plots

A

Wave hazard plots are based on steady speed, non-maneuvering conditions. There are three different plots based on wave heights - up to 8’, 8’-10’, and 10’-12’. Always use the most restrictive hazard plot.

The circles indicate ship speed in 5 knot increments starting from 0 knots at the innermost circle to 30 knots max speed at the outermost circle. The radial arms indicate wave direction relative to the ship’s heading.

The blue crosshatched regions indicate a pitch of 2 degrees or more while the black crosshatched regions indicate a roll of 8 degrees or more. Both are included for situational awareness only.

The yellow regions indicate a hazard of 2’ of water over the flight deck and requires ship CO approval with the recommendation from the OIC or senior HAC present to operate in this region.

The red regions present significant risk of water impacting the rotor blades which can result in catastrophic damage and the loss of aircrew or flight deck personnel. Operation in this region is prohibited with personnel or aircraft on the flight deck.

Again, the plots are based on steady speed, non-maneuvering conditions therefore initiating turns and speed changes can increase the size of both hazard regions.

Q

Explain the Air-Capable ships TACAN approach

A

There are three IAFs (A, B, C) with ‘A’ being the Primary Marshal on a heading of 150 deg relative (starboard approach). ‘B’ is a straight-in at 180 relative and ‘C’ is 210 relative. Weather required for the approach is 200’-1/2.

A holding pattern is established out to 4 DME. Turning inbound on the bearing (150 deg relative), 200’ is maintained through the FAF at 1.5 DME until the MAP at 0.5 DME. Descend like a normal approach to 125’ at 0.25 and continue.

If visual contact is not made by the MAP, climb to 400’ maintaining the 30 deg offset unless it’s a straight-in in which case change heading 30 deg. Drive out to 3 NM or after 3 minutes turn downwind and proceed to desired Marshall point.

LAST RESORT when available equipment will not allow ELVA to be used or ship cannot be visually acquired using ELVA.

Requires ship CO and PIC concurrence.

Before resorting to a smoke light approach, consideration should be given to the following:

  1. Returning the aircraft to the ship early.
  2. Maneuvering the ship into an area of better visibility.
  3. Vectoring the aircraft to another available ship where visibility is better.
  4. Vectoring the aircraft to a suitable alternate airfield.

Q

Smokelight approach procedure

A

Aircraft 2 miles astern (180 deg relative from BRC).

Fly inbound at 40’ / 40 KIAS. Ship personnel drop smoke/matrix lights every 15 seconds.

Adjust closure rate to acquire ship visually. Safe closure at about 12-13 second intervals.

Q

How many people required for manual helo movement on the deck?

A

19-23 people

  • LSO
  • FDD
  • Brakerider
  • 2x steering bar operators (SBOs)
  • 2x safety observers
  • 2x chock runners
  • Aircraft mover
101
Q

Wind envelopes are based on steady state winds. During gusty conditions, if gust spread is __________ or more, reduce the max winds allowed for rotor engagement/disengagement by __________.

A

10 knots; 10 knots in all quadrants

102
Q

Advisory Control

A

Advisory Control: Monitoring radar and radio channels to advise pilots of traffic and operating/hazaradous areas. Shall be used where traffic density in OPAREA requires a higher degree of control for safety of flight than normally required under VMC. Recommended where positive control is not required.

103
Q

NATOPS (Ch.8): Name the four types of approaches for shipboard landings

A
  1. Visual approach / alternate instrument approach
  2. Instrument approach
  3. ELVA (wx < mins and bingo fuel inadequate to get to GCA/CCA airfield or ship)
  4. Offset approach or ordnance lineup approach
104
Q

NATOPS (Ch.8): Lighting configuration at night on approach

A
  • Lower smacks OFF
  • RAST light ON
  • Position lights DIM
105
Q

Name the two types of HIFR hoses

A
  1. Wiggins/North Island HIFR Rig
  2. NATO-Compatible High Capacity HIFR Rig
106
Q

Most U.S. helos are configured with what type of HIFR connection? What is required when NOT using this type?`

A

Most U.S. helicopters are configured with a Wiggins-type connection for HIFR refueling, whereas all other NATO countries with HIFR capability use a Parker connection.

If a U.S. helo performs HIFR with a NATO ship, an adapter to convert the Parker nozzle to a Wiggins type connection will be required.

107
Q

During HIFR, if neither precheck switch in the cockpit will secure fuel flow, fueling should be ______________.

A

Continued only if necessary. If fueling is required, proceed with caution in order to prevent rupture of the main fuel cell.

108
Q

NVD compatible

A

Lighting systems which are only required for the unaided operator and shall have no adverse effect on the aided operator. Virtually invisible on NVDs.

109
Q

VERTREP Winds for CruDes to CVN

A

Optimum winds 330-030

Q

VERTREP Winds for CruDes to CruDes

A

Optimum winds 270-330 and 030-090
