Chapter 9 Flashcards
LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
is
defined as landing at the nearest suitable landing area (e.g.,
open field) without delay. (The primary consideration is to
ensure the survival of occupants.)
LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE
is
defined as landing at a suitable landing area. (The primary
consideration is the urgency of the emergency.)
AUTOROTATE
is defined as adjusting the
flight controls as necessary to establish an autorotational
descent and landing.
ESTABLISH SINGLE ENGINE AIRSPEED
is defined as maneuvering the aircraft to an appropriate
airspeed that will allow for continued flight under
partial power conditions to a suitable recovery area.
- Cyclic - Adjust as required.
- Collective - Adjust as required to maintain %
RPM R within normal operating range. - Establish appropriate airspeed.
EMER ENG SHUTDOWN
is defined as
engine shutdown without delay. Engine shutdown in flight
is usually not an immediate-action item unless a fire exists.
Before attempting an engine shutdown, identify the affected
engine by checking ENG OUT warnings, % RPM,
% TRQ, ENG OIL PRESS, TGT TEMP, and Ng
SPEED.
- ENG POWER CONT lever(s) - OFF.
- ENG FUEL SYS selector(s) - OFF.
- FUEL BOOST PUMP CONTROL
switch(es) - OFF.
EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (CAUTION)
I f TGT r i s e s above 538°C a f t e r shutdown, place AIR SOURCE HEAT/ START switch as required, turn ENGINE IGNITION switch OFF, and press starter to motor engine for 30 seconds or until TGT decreases below 538°C.
LOCKOUT
is defined as manual control of
engine RPM while bypassing 700 ECU, or 701C
701D/CC DEC/EDECU functions. Bypass of the engine
control will be required when % RPM 1 or 2 decreases
below normal demand speed due to a malfunction of the
ECU/DEC/EDECU.
ENG POWER CONT lever - Pull down and advance
full forward while maintaining downward pressure, then
adjust to set % RPM R as required. Engine control
malfunctions can result in % RPM R increasing or
decreasing from normal demand speed. Under certain
failure conditions, % TRQ, % RPM, and Ng SPEED
may not be indicating and the possibility of the ENG OUT
warning and audio activating exists. The most reliable
indication of engine power will be TGT TEMP.
LOCKOUT (WARNING / CAUTION)
WARNING: Going to ECU/DEC/EDECU LOCKOUT to obtain additional power does not remove Maximum Fuel Flow or Ng limits. % RPM R will decrease below normal operating range if Maximum Fuel Flow or Ng limits are exceeded
CAUTION: When engine is controlled with ENG POWER CONT lever in LOCKOUT, engine response is much faster and TGT limiting system is inoperative. Care must be taken not to exceed TGT limits and keeping % RPM R and % RPM 1 and 2 in operating range.
EMER APU START
is defined as APU
start to accomplish an emergency procedure.
- FUEL PUMP switch - APU BOOST.
- APU CONTR switch - ON.
CAUTION: Ensure that the mask blowers are disconnected and position the BCA MCU control knobs to OFF prior to switching from main power to APU power.
Emergency Exits (Warning)
Warning: For helicopters with a non-operational roll-trim actuator, the cyclic shall be continuously held while on the ground with rotor turning. In cases where emergency exit is required prior to rotor coasting to a stop, make sure that the cyclic stick is centered until the last crewmember can depart the cockpit. Since the main rotor shaft has a 3° forward tilt, an exit to the right rear or left rear will provide the greatest rotor clearance safety.
Engine Malfunctions (Warning x2)
Warning: Single engine capability must be considered prior to movement of the engine power control lever. Prior to movement of either power-control lever, it is imperative that the malfunctioning engine and the corresponding powercontrol lever be identified. If the decision is made to shut down an engine, take at least five full seconds while retarding the ENG POWER CONT lever from FLY to IDLE, monitoring % TRQ, Ng SPEED, TGT TEMP, % RPM, and ENG OUT warning appearance.
Significant rotor droop that results in the
generators dropping off line or a dual
generator or converter failure will result
in a partial power loss. This power loss
will be due to the opening of engine antiice
valves and will result in a further
reduction of maximum torque available
by 700 16% or 701C 701D/CC
18%.
Single Engine Failure (Warning x2)
When the power available during single engine operation is marginal or less, consideration should be given to jettisoning the external stores. The engine antiice and cockpit heater switches should be turned off as necessary to ensure maximum power is available on the remaining engine.
(2) Do not respond to ENG OUT warning
and audio until checking TGT TEMP, Ng
SPEED, and % RPM 1 and 2.
Single Engine Failure
- ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
- External cargo/stores - Jettison (if required).
If continued flight is not possible: - LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
If continued flight is possible: - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE
Engine Restart During Flight
After an engine failure in flight, an engine restart may
be attempted. If it can be determined that it is reasonably
safe to attempt a start, the APU should be used. Use of a
crossbleed start could result in a power loss of up to 18%
TRQ on the operational engine.
Dual Engine Failure
AUTOROTATE.
Warning:
Do not respond to ENG OUT warnings
and audio until checking TGT TEMP
and % RPM R.
ECU/DEC/EDECU Low Side Failure
1. ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED. If partial powered flight cannot be maintained: 2. ENG POWER CONT lever (low % TRQ/ TGT TEMP engine) - LOCKOUT. Maintain % TRQ approximately 10% below other engine. 3. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
ECU/DEC/EDECU Low Side Failure (Warning / Caution / Note)
Warning: Going to ECU/DEC/EDECU LOCKOUT to obtain additional power does not remove Maximum Fuel Flow or Ng limits. % RPM R will decrease below normal operating range if Maximum Fuel Flow or Ng limits are exceeded.
Caution: When engine is controlled with ENG POWER CONT lever in LOCKOUT, engine response is much faster and the TGT limiting system is inoperative. Care must be taken not to exceed TGT limits and keeping % RPM R and % RPM 1 and 2 in operating range.
Note: If %RPM R reduces from 100% to 95-96% during steady flight, check %TRQ 1 and 2. If %TRQ 1 and 2 are equal and below Maximum Torque Available, attempt to increase %RPM R with ENG RPM trim switch.
ECU/DEC/EDECU High Side Failure
- ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
- ENG POWER CONT lever (high % TRQ/
TGT TEMP engine) - Retard. Maintain %
TRQ approximately 10% below other engine. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
If the affected engine does not respond to ENG
POWER CONT lever movement in the range between
FLY and IDLE, the HMU may be malfunctioning
internally.
If this occurs: - Perform EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected
engine). - Refer to single-engine failure emergency procedure
% RPM Increasing/Decreasing (Oscillation)
- ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
- Slowly retard the ENG POWER CONT lever
on the suspected engine.
If the oscillation stops and partial power flight cannot
be maintained: - Place that engine in LOCKOUT and manually
control the power. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
If the oscillation continues: - Place the ENG POWER CONT lever back to
FLY and retard the ENG POWER CONT
lever of the other engine.
If partial power flight cannot be maintained: - Place the engine in LOCKOUT, manually
control the power. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
% TRQ Split Between Engines 1 & 2
- ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
- If TGT TEMP of one engine exceeds the
limiter ( 700 850°C, 701C 701D/CC
875°C with low power engine above 50%
TRQ or 901°C with low power engine below
50% TRQ), retard ENG POWER CONT
lever on that engine to reduce TGT TEMP.
Retard the ENG POWER CONT lever to
maintain torque of the manually controlled
engine at approximately 10% below the other
engine. - If TGT TEMP limit on either engine is not
exceeded, slowly retard ENG POWER
CONT lever on high % TRQ engine and
observe % TRQ of low power engine. - If % TRQ of low power engine increases,
ENG POWER CONT lever on high power
engine - Retard to maintain % TRQ approximately
10% below other engine (the high
power engine has been identified as a high side
failure). - If % TRQ of low power engine does not
increase, or % RPM R decreases, ENG
POWER CONT lever - Return high power
engine to FLY (the low power engine has been
identified as a low side failure). - If additional power is required, low power
ENG POWER CONT lever, momentarily move to LOCKOUT and adjust to set %
TRQ approximately 10% below the other
engine. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.

ENGINE HIGH-SPEED SHAFT FAILURE.
Failure of the shaft may be complete or partial. A
partial failure may be characterized at first by nothing
more than a loud high-speed rattle and vibration coming
from the engine area. A complete failure will be accompanied
by a loud bang that will result in a sudden %
TRQ decrease to zero on the affected engine. % RPM of
affected engine will increase until overspeed system is
activated.
- ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
- EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected engine).
Do not attempt to restart. - Refer to single-engine failure emergency procedure
LIGHTNING STRIKE
Lightning strike may cause one or both engines to immediately
produce maximum power with no TGT limiting
or overspeed protection. Systems instruments may also be
inoperative. If this occurs, the flight crew would have to
adjust to the malfunctioning engine(s) ENG POWER
CONT lever(s) as required to control % RPM by sound
and feel. If practical, the pilot should reduce speed to 80
KIAS. This will reduce the criticality of having exactly
correct rotor speed 100%.
- ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
- ENG POWER CONT levers - Adjust as
required to control % RPM. - LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
Lightning Strike (Warning)
Lightning strikes may result in loss of
automatic flight control functions, engine
controls, and/or electric power.
Loss of Tail Rotor Thrust in Cruise Flight
If autorotation entry is delayed, large sideslip angles can
develop causing low indicated airspeed with the stabilator
programming down. This will make it more difficult to
establish or maintain adequate autorotative airspeed.
1. AUTOROTATE - Maintain airspeed at or above 80 KIAS. 2. ENG POWER CONT levers - OFF (during deceleration when intended point of landing is assured).

helicopter heading trim. This condition will be detected by
the SAS/FPS computer, which will disengage trim and
FPS functions in the yaw axis and activate the FLT
PATH STAB and TRIM FAIL cautions
If failure occurs: 1. POWER ON RESET s w i t c h e s - Simultaneously press and then release. If failure returns, control affected axis manually. 2. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
Trim Actuator Jammed
Both yaw and roll
trim actuators incorporate slip clutches to allow pilot and
copilot inputs if either actuator should jam. The forces
required to override the clutches are 80-pounds maximum
in yaw and 13-pounds maximum in roll.
LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
STABILATOR MALFUNCTION - AUTO MODE
FAILURE. (Warning x3)
Warning:
(1) If acceleration is continued or collective
is decreased with the stabilator in a trailing
edge down position, longitudinal
control will be lost. The stabilator shall
be slewed to 0° above 40 KIAS and fulldown
when airspeed is 40 KIAS or less.
If the stabilator is slewed up to the 0°
position and the AUTO CONTROL
RESET switch is pressed during acceleration,
the helicopter may pitch to a
nose down attitude.
(2) Pressing the AUTO CONTROL RESET switch after a failure occurs results in the automatic mode coming on for one second. If a hardover signal to one actuator is present, the stabilator could move approximately 4° to 5° in that one second before another auto mode failure occurs. Subsequent reset attempts could result in the stabilator moving to an unsafe position.
(3) If the stabilator AUTO mode repeatedly
disengages during a flight, flight above 70
KIAS is prohibited with the stabilator in
AUTO mode.
STABILATOR MALFUNCTION - AUTO MODE
FAILURE.
If an AUTO Mode Failure Occurs:
1. Cyclic mounted stabilator slew-up switch -
Adjust as required to arrest or prevent nose
down pitch rate.
2. AUTO CONTROL switch - Press ON once
after establishing a comfortable airspeed.
If automatic control is not regained:
3. Manually slew stabilator - Adjust to 0° for
flight above 40 KIAS or full down when airspeed
is 40 KIAS or less. The preferred
method of manually slewing the stabilator up is to use the cyclic mounted stabilator slew-up
switch.
4. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
If manual control is not possible:
5. STAB POS indicator - Check and fly at or
below KIAS LIMIT shown on placard.
6. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
Uncommanded Nose Down Pitch Attitude
- Cyclic - Adjust as required.
- Collective - Maintain or increase.
- Cyclic mounted stabilator slew-up switch -
Adjust as required to arrest nose down pitch
rate. - MAN SLEW switch - Adjust to 0° a t
airspeeds above 40 KIAS and full down at
airspeeds 40 KIAS or less. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
Uncommanded Nose Up Pitch Attitude
- Cyclic - Adjust as required.
- Collective - Reduce as required.
- MAN SLEW switch - Adjust to 0° a t
airspeeds above 40 KIAS and full down at
airspeeds 40 KIAS or less. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
ATTITUDE HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM
(AHRS) HEADING DEVIATIONS.
If HSI deviation of more than 10° occurs between the
HSI and the standby magnetic compass:
1. Set the AHRU Control Unit to DG mode.
2. Manually update the HSI heading using the
standby compass.
3. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
EMERGENCY JETTISONING
When conditions exist which require the jettisoning of
external loads to ensure continued flight or execution of
emergency procedures, the crew should jettison the load as
follows:
CARGO REL or HOOK EMER REL switch
- Press.
MR DE-ICE FAULT, MR DE-ICE FAIL, or TR
DE-ICE FAIL Caution Appears.
a. If the MR DE-ICE FAULT caution appears, the
system will continue to function in a degraded mode. The
pilot must be aware of vibration levels and % TRQ
requirements, which could be a result of ice buildup.
b. If the MR DE-ICE FAIL caution appears, the main
rotor de-ice will automatically turn off. Tail rotor de-ice
will remain on.
c. If the TR DE-ICE FAIL caution appears, tail rotor
de-ice will automatically turn off. Main rotor de-ice will
remain on.
- Icing conditions - Exit.
- BLADE DE-ICE POWER switch - OFF,
when out of icing conditions.
If vibrations increase: - LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
PWR MAIN RTR and/or PWR TAIL RTR
Monitor Light On.
If a PWR monitor light is illuminated with BLADE
DE-ICE POWER switch ON to stop power from being
applied to blades:
1. Icing conditions - EXIT.
2. BLADE DE-ICE POWER switch - OFF.
If a PWR monitor light is still illuminated with
BLADE DE-ICE POWER switch OFF:
3. GENERATORS NO. 1 or NO. 2 switch -
OFF.
4. APU generator switch - OFF (if in use).
5. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
