Q

Airspeed Limitations Following Failure Of The Automatic Stabilator Control System

A

Manual control is available:

Q

Restricted Maneuvers

A

Manual Operation of the Stabilator

Manual operation of the stabilator in flight is prohibited except as required by formal training and maintenance test flight requirements or as alternate stabilator control in case of AUTO mode malfunctions.

Downwind Hovering

Prolonged rearward flight and downwind hovering are to be avoided to prevent exhaust fumes in the helicopter and heat damage to windows on open cargo doors.
