This is intended to introduce the associated material and all persons using these cards should study and reference the officially distributed material from the manufacturer. It is recommended that after referencing each card, the student should independently verify the information on that card by looking it up and learning the comprehensive information from the direct source. If any inaccuracies, misleading or typo errors are found, please notify the administrator of the study deck.
MINIMUM BATT VOLTAGE DURING START PROCEDURE
22V
PROCEDURE IN CASE OF FAILED / ABORTED START
Return the engine starting selector to OFF, wait 30 sec., perform an engine crank before next start attempt.
WHEN DOES THE UPPER VEMD CHANGE TO THE FLI DURING START?
WHEN N1 IS ABOVE 60%
CAN HEATING DEMISTING SYSTEM BE USED DURING TAKEOFF?
Heating and demisting system can be used during takeoff but this degrades the aircraft hover and climb performance shown in SECTION 5 when operating at engine limits (N1, TOT)
WHAT IS MAX CLIMB Vy?
IAS kt = 65 kt at 0 HP - (1 kt per 1000 ft)
WHEN IS THE FLIGHT REPORT PAGE DISPLAYED?
ON SHUT DOWN BELOW 60% N1
FUEL CELL CAPACITY
and
(Usable Amount)
- 7 Gallons
- 1 Usable
YELLOW ZONE ON FUEL GAUGE
15.8 Gallons Remaining
15 Minutes Flight Time at MCP
DOES THE FUEL GAUGE YELLOW ZONE INCLUDE NON-USABLE FUEL?
NO
DEMONSTRATED WIND ENVELOPE FOR STARTING AND STOPPING ROTOR
(Not Limitation)
Starting and stopping the rotor has been demonstrated for winds of 40 kt from any direction and 50 kt with a headwind (forward center axis +/- 30°).
WHEN MUST BLADES BE TIED DOWN (Wind)?
Above 40 kt
HOW DO YOU CHECK ENGINE POWER IN HOVER BEFORE TAKEOFF?
In HIGE at 5ft and before initiating forward flight, pull the collective pitch lever slightly to ensure that the N1 can increase by at least 1%, without exceeding the max. transient rating
HOW DO YOU PERFORM A FADEC/ENGINE HEALTH CHECK?
- The engine health check is performed in level flight MCP, heating and demisting system and ECS OFF.
- Prefer an altitude where the engine is operating close to the N1 MCP limit.
- Stabilize level flight MCP for at least 2 min. before initiating the engine health check.
- Read the results displayed on VEMD after the end of the procedure.
- The engine health check is satisfactory if:
- TRQ MARGIN / TOT is above 0%, “GOOD” displayed, and
- TRQ MARGIN / N1 is above 0%,“GOOD” displayed
