Chapter 5 Flashcards
Airspeed Operating Limits
130 KIAS = Maximum airspeed for one engine inoperative.
130 KIAS = Maximum airspeed for autorotation at a gross weight of greater than 16,825 pounds.
150 KIAS = Maximum airspeed for autorotation at a gross weight of 16,825 pounds or less.
Sideward/rearward flight into the wind, when combined with windspeed, shall not exceed 45 knots.
Slope Landing Limitations
a. 15° nose-up, right wheel up or left wheel upslope. The slope limitations shall be further reduced by 2° for every 5 knots of wind.
b. 6° nose downslope. Landing in down slope conditions with tail winds greater than 15 knots shall not be conducted.
c. The main gearbox may be operated up to 30 minutes at a time with pressure fluctuations when the helicopter os known to be at a nose-up attitude.
Airspeed Vne
Function of altitude, temperature, and gross weight.
(193 Knots)
Flight in Ice
a. …… 4°C or below…… visible liquid moisture……
b. Helicopter with the following equipment installed, operational, and turned on are permitted to fly into trace or light icing conditions.
(1) Windshield Anti-ice
(2) Pitot Heat
(3) Engine Anti-Ice
(4) Engine Inlet Anti-Ice Modulation Valve
(5) Insulated Ambient Air Sensing Tube
c. Flight into moderate icing contions, all equipment in paragraph 5.28 b. and blade deice.
Flight into heavy or severe icing is prohibited.
Main Transmission Oil Temperature Limits
Precautionary: 105 - 140°C
Continuous: -50 - 105°C
Engine Oil Temperature
30-minute Limit: 135 - 150°C
Continuous: -50 - 135°C
Engine Overspeed Check Limitations
Engine overspeed check in flight is prohibited. Engine overspeed checks,on the ground, are authorized by designated maintenance personnel only.
Maximum airspeed for Searchlight
100 KIAS = Maximum forward airspeed for extending
180 KIAS = Airspeed limit if extended
Engine Ng

Start Abort Limit: 851°C
10-Minute Limit: 851-878°C
30-Minute Limit: 801-851°C
Normal: 0-810°C
High-Speed Yaw Maneuver Limitation
Above 80 KIAS avoid abrupt, full pedal inputs to prevent excess tail rotor system loading.
Airspeed Limitations Following Failure Of The Automatic Stabilator Control System
Manual control is available:
(1) Below 40 KIAS: The stabilator shall be set full down
(2) Above 40 KIAS: The stabilator shall be set at 0°
(3) 120 KIAS: Autorotation airspeed shall be limited at all gross weights.
Manual control not available:
The placard airspeed limits shall be observed as not-to-exceed speed (powered flight and autorotation), except in no case shall the autorotation limit exceed 120 KIAS.
SAS inoperative airspeed limits
170 KIAS = One SAS inoperative
150 KIAS = Two SAS inoperative
140 KIAS = Two SAS inoperative in IMC
Maximum airspeed for Landing Light
130 KIAS = Maximum forward airspeed for extending
180 KIAS = Airspeed limit if extended
Pneumatic Source Inlet Limits
The minimum ground-air source (pneumatic) required to start the helicopter engines is 40 psig and 30 ppm at 149°C (300°F)
The maximum ground-air source to be applied to the helicopter is 50 psig at 249°C (480°F), measured at the external air connector on the fuselage.
