Q

Define
- Land as soon as practical
- Land as soon as possible
- Land immediately

When IMC

A

Land as soon as practical:
same as VMC
“The landing site and duration of flight is at the…”

Land as soon as possible + immediately:
1) Try to reach VMC and continue VFR
2) If VMC is not possible - land as nearest IFR airfield with a published INST approach

AR 95-1

Rules regarding visibility reduction as helicopter pilot ?

A
  1. May be reduced 50% but not less than 1/4
  2. Only if pilot briefing doesn’t specify otherwise
  3. Only for CAT A as a helicoper
  4. NOT for “copter” approaches

CAT A = 90 KIAS

Q

When may pilot use GPS at both alternate and destination approach ?

A

When the RNAV system has TSO 145/146 equipment (UH72 has it)

You must use circling/RNAV planning minimums

1 One of the following must be visible/in sight:
- Treshhold of runway
- Approach lights

Q

AR 95-1

IFR GPS approach & missed apprach procedures ?

sequencing of GPS + if on a copter approach

A

1. Procedures from approved
2. P verify that GPS begins to sequence when in terminal area prior to IAF
3. If GPS doesn’t sequence before IAF = pilots request alternate procedures / post IAF = missed approach
4. Copter missed approaches will be flown as 70 KIAS

Q

EFB rules

Electronic flight bag

A
  • There must be no outdates pubs on the device
  • 10 % battery per flight hour
  • minimum 50% battery to commence flight

Must bring paper pubs if:
- Both pilot are not operating on the same EFB softwear (ie. foreflight)
- If only one pilot is using an EFB
- There is a password on the device

Q

IFR 2 way RDO failure procedure ?

A

1 Execute good judgement
2 Try the guard frequency, other radios, and try to tune in on a NAVAID ATC might try to communicate through it
3 Squak 7600
4 Try to obtain VMC
5 Select route using (AVE-F) and altitude using (MEA)

Continue flight to approach and adhere to EFC and ETA times. (holding if necessary)

Q

When does the “approach mode” light appear in the cockpit?

A

45 degrees of the FAF
(the FAF must be the next waypoint)

17
Q

AFCS

What’s the pupose of the stability augmentation system (SAS) ?

A
  • Provides a stable platform for autopilot functions
  • Dampens disturbances
    (dynamic and atmospheric influences)
18
Q

AFCS

Describe the AFCS loop

A

Brains (sensors and computation units)
Muscles (actuators)

The brains meassures relevant data, computations units analyze it and sends signals to the actuators. The actuators converts signal to the flight controls.

19
Q

AFCS

What’s the difference between
SAS & trim ?

A

SAS: You can’t see the inputs, has limited control autority, uses SEMAs
Trim: You can see the inputs, has 100% control autority, uses parallel actuators

20
Q

AFCS

What’s the control authority of the SAS ?
Level 3 and level 2 ?

A

Level 3 = All 5 SEMAS used
11% - 12% - 18%
Pitch - Yaw - Roll

Level 2 = Only 3 SEMAS used
6% - 12% - 9%
Pitch - Yaw - Roll

21
Q

AFCS

Which sensors do the UH 72 have for the AFCS ?

A
  1. FOG
  2. AHRS
  3. ADC
  4. OAT
  5. Sensor 1+2
  6. Magnetometer 1+2
22
Q

What sensored are used in digital SAS ?

Level 3

A

AHRS + FOGs

23
Q

What’s the purpose of the SAS/AP cut ?

A

Disengages AFCS in the event of a flight control malfunction

24
Q

AFCS

What does the “FOGs” meassure ?

A

Fiber obtic gyros
Meassures turning rate

25
Q

AFCS

What does the “AHRS” meassure ?

A

Meassure flight attitude
