Chapter 9 - Emergency Procedures Flashcards
DEFINE: Land As Soon As Practicable
The term LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE is defined as landing at a suitable landing area. (The primary consideration is the urgency of the emergency.)
DEFINE: Land As Soon As Possible
The term 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.)
DEFINE: Autorotate
The term AUTOROTATE is defined as adjusting the flight controls as necessary to establish an autorotational descent and landing.
DEFINE: Emergency Engine Shutdown
The term 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 af-fected engine by checking ENG OUT warning lights, NP, NR, Q (torque), P (engine oil pressure), TGT, and NG.
DEFINE: Lockout
The term LOCKOUT is defined as manual control of engine RPM while bypassing DEC functions. Bypass of the engine control will be required when NP1 or 2 decreases below normal demand speed due to a malfunction of the DEC.
Emergency Engine Shutdown
(1. ) ENG POWER CONT lever(s) — OFF.
(2. ) ENG FUEL SYS selector(s) — OFF.
(3. ) FUEL BOOST PUMP switch(es) — OFF.
Lockout
ENG POWER CONT lever — Pull down and advance full forward while maintaining downward pres-sure, then adjust to set NR as required.
DEFINE: Emergency APU Start
The term EMERGENCY APU START is defined as APU start to accomplish an emergency procedure.
Emergency APU Start
(1. ) FUEL PUMP switch — APU BOOST.
(2. ) APU CONT switch — ON.
Single Engine Failure
- Collective — Adjust to maintain NR
(2. ) External cargo/stores — Jettison (if required). - Establish single-engine airspeed.
If continued flight is not possible:
- LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
If continued flight is possible:
- LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
Dual Engine Failure
- Autorotate
Decreasing NR
- Collective — Adjust to control NR.
- 1 Establish single-engine airspeed.
(2. ) ENG POWER CONT lever (low % TRQ / TGT TEMP engine) — LOCKOUT. Maintain % TRQ approximately 10% below other engine. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
Increasing NR
(1. ) ENG POWER CONT lever (high Q/TGT engine) — Retard. Maintain Q approximately 10% below other engine.
2. 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:
- Establish single engine airspeed.
(4. ) Perform EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected engine).
(5. ) Refer to single-engine failure emergency procedure.
Engine Compressor Stall
- Establish single engine airspeed.
- Collective — Reduce.
If condition persists:
(3. ) ENG POWER CONT lever (affected engine) — Retard (TGT should decrease).
(4. ) ENG POWER CONT lever (affected engine) — FLY.
If stall condition recurs:
(5. ) EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected engine).
(6. ) Refer to single-engine failure emergency procedure.
CHIP ENG 1 OR CHIP ENG 2, ENG 1 OIL PRESS OR ENG 2 OIL PRESS, ENG 1 OIL HOT OR ENG 2 OIL HOT CAUTION APPEARS.
- Establish single engine airspeed.
- ENG POWER CONT lever (affected engine) — Retard (to reduce torque).
If oil pressure is below minimum limits or if oil temperature remains above maximum limits:
- EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected engine).
- Refer to single engine failure emergency procedure.
