Known firearm, flight below ______ AGL or _________ KIAS increases vulnerability of the aircraft and crew.
1000, 50
besides T/O and LDG, maintain obstacle and terrain clearance by _____ day and _______ night
300, 500
A contact approach is a good idea because:
Contact approach is not authorized in MSPAC Aircraft
Best source of determining the location and intensity of actual icing conditions?
PIREP
Min fuel reserve for VFR helo flights under 14 CFR 91 is ______minutes or ___________ lbs for MSPAC Aircraft

The proper procedure to recover from a settling with power (vortex ring state) condition:
Increase fwd speed and partially decrease collective pitch or perform the vuichard recovery
A magenta shading on VFR charts encircles the areas of Class E airspace where the floor is:
700’ AGL
GT: Recall that the thick and fuzzy magenta circle or set of lines indicate Class E airspace starting at 700 ft. AGL
Everywhere else, meaning anytime you’re outside of the thick and fuzzy magenta circle or set of lines, or nothing is being indicated on the sectional chart, Class E airspace starts at 1,200 ft. AGL.
Here are the common types of Class E that you will encounter:
The surface area designated for an airport (starts at the surface; identified by the dashed magenta line/circle; requires airspace authorization)
Extension to a surface area (identified by the dashed magenta line/box appearing on Class D airspace; does not require airspace authorization)
Transition airspace
(starts at 700 ft AGL; identified by the thick fuzzy magenta circle/border around an airport; does not require airspace authorization)
(starts at 1,200 ft AGL; not identified on charts; governing airspace when not under other controlled airspace; does not require airspace authorization)
En Route Domestic Areas (starts at 1,200 ft AGL; identified by the thick fuzzy blue line; does not require airspace authorization)
Victory Airways (starts at 1,200 ft AGL and is identified by the light blue line. These are like the highways in the sky. Victor airways do not require airspace authorization)
Offshore airspace areas (starts at indicated altitude; identified by the blue zipper line, does not require airspace authorization)
Certain circumstances………. Such deviations when _________, reflect ________ and __________:

The “MAIN LANDING GEAR” is maintained in the “UP” position by:
NONE OF THE ABOVE (mechanical locks, Hyd PSI and Mechanical locks, Hydraulic PSI and gear handle)
GT:

Destination, Alt, A/S.
R/B engaged at ________ Released at ________
40% NR and when rotor has stopped
MAX A/S with 102 on
90 KTs
shut down helo at med pad unless:
All of the above:
another pending mission
+27Kt surface winds
Mx issue with the aircraft which allows operation but ……….
Paramedic conducts turnover on the helipad (bunker turnover) Covid SOP
Another aircraft is inbound
What warning message is continuously repeated until condition is corrected?
Rotor Low
The batteries can be recharged by external power as long as the battery switches are placed in the “ON” positions. This procedure should be utilized by all PICs b/c it saves maintenance on the battery (T/F)
FALSE
GT:
An engine battery start should not be attempted if the MAIN BUS 1 voltage is below 24 volts
FALSE
GT: 23 volts min start
Max gross weight for the MSPAC AW-139 is 6400 kgs or 14110 lbs (T/F)
FALSE
GT: 14991 max logged with mx over 14110.
A pilot has a commercial pilot certificate and is exercising that privilege. His medical certificate will expire:
The last day of the 12th month following the issue.
Crews are not prohibited from completing an overwater search mission as long as the aircraft stays within 3 NM of land at 500’ AGL of (or) 12 NM of land at 1000’ AGL (T/F).
FALSE
GT: OPS MANUAL 10.10: Open Water Operations are defined as the Atlantic Ocean and the Chesapeake Bay south of the state line.
Open water SAR operations beyond 12 NM from shore are prohibited and open water operations
beyond 3 NM from shore require the approval of the DFO or their designee. In the event such
communication cannot be made in a timely manner, the flight crew will use their best judgement
considering risk, safety, and weather conditions before operating in open water in an effort to
preserve life.
Refer to MSPAC Standardization and Training Manual.
The bus bars ranked from most important are:
Essential, Main, Non-Essential Bus
Alphabetical
When executing a VGP GPS approach the pilot is responsible for leveling the aircraft at or above the MDA prior to the missed approach point. (T/F)
TRUE
The low fuel cas light will illuminate when the fuel capacity reaches 202 lbs total fuel in the individual tank
True
An ASR is required if as a result of un-forecasted weather conditions the pilots purposely enter IMC conditions from VMC conditions with IFR clearance and recovers based on the EDP program (T/F)
FALSE
GT: EDP Program?
If the fuel filter caution appears monitor the engine and:
Land as soon as Practicable
OPS MAN- maintain _____ ft AGL when VFR unless directed by ATC or mandated by helo route charts
500 AGL
