Aircraft Aerobatic and Spinning Limitations Flashcards
What is the max AUM for aerobatics?
1440kg
What is the max permissible distance the C of G can be aft of datum in order for aerobatics to be permitted?
2732mm
True of False - The fuel tank selector must be set to ‘Left’ during aerobatics?
True
Can the fuel transfer pump be operating during aerobatics?
No
What is the max fuel in each wing for aeros?
115kg
What is the max time you can fly with zero g, or in pitch attitudes 90 degrees up or down?
10 seconds
What is the max permissible time you can fly inverted?
30 seconds
What is the max permissible time you can fly with pitch attitude in excess of 45 degrees nose up or down?
30 seconds
What is the max permissible time you can fly with a wing down or knife edge flight (balanced turns are not considered wing down flight)?
30 seconds
What can be affected if the abnormal attitudes in aeros cause a sudden drop in oil pressure?
TRQ
After any period spent in abnormal attitudes (inverted, excess of 45 degrees nose up or down, negative g, wing down or knife edge flight) how long should you spend in erect positive g flight with an attitude of less than +/- 45 degrees?
At least the amount of time spent in the restricted attitude
What should you do if oil pressure drops below 35psi during aeros?
Return immediately to normal erect attitude and select POWER lever to FI.
Is it permissible for oil pressure to flicker during transition from erect to inverted flight?
Yes
When inverted, if oil pressure fails to rise to normal levels what actions should be taken?
Land and troubleshoot the inverted oil system
What is prohibited at speeds in excess of Vo (max manoeuvre speed)?
Full OR abrupt control deflection
