Q

Engine Flame Out in Cruise Flight (over land)

A
  1. Collective - REDUCE to maintain normal NR

If relighting impossible or after loss of TR thrust:
3. Twist grip - IDLE
4. Maneuver aircraft into the wind in final approach

At 70 feet AGL:
5. Cyclic - FLARE

5. COLLECTIVE - GRADUALLY INCREASE to reduce rate of descent and forward speed
7. CYCLIC - FORWARD for lightly nose up landing attitude (under 10 deg)
8. PEDALS - ADJUST to counter sideslip tendency
9. COLLECTIVE - INCREASE to cushion touchdown

After touchdown:
10. CYCLIC COLLECTIVE PEDALS - ADJUST to control ground run

Q

Autorotation Over Water

A

Apply same procedure as over land, except items 10, 11 and 12, but maneuver to head the aircraft equally between the wind and wave direction on final approach. Ditch with minimum forward speed (IAS < 30 kt (56 km/h)) and rate of descent. Then apply
following check- list for items 10, 11, 12.

After touch-down
10. Collective - MAINTAIN
11. Forward doors emergency
handles - PULL-UP
12. Doors - JETTISON or OPEN
13. Rotor brake - APPLY
Abandon aircraft once the rotor has stopped.

Q

In-Flight Relighting

A

According to available height and cause of flame-out:

  1. FUEL PUMP or FUEL P - ON
  2. Engine starting selector - OFF position
  3. Engine starting selector -ON position
    The relighting sequence will therefore be automatically carried out as soon as Ng < 17 %.
  • After relighting procedure
  1. FUEL PUMP or FUEL P - OFF

At least 1000 ft (300 m) are necessary to complete relighting procedure after flame-out.

LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

APPROACH AND LANDING
On a suitable area for autorotative landing:

  2. Carry out an autorotative landing according to the autorotation procedure
    (Refer to SECTION 3.2 § 1).

Q

Loss of Tail Rotor Control (jammed pedals)

A

Symptom: Jamming of pedals or loss of pedal effectiveness. These conditions make it impossible to change tail rotor thrust with the pedals.

WARNING:

LANDING IS MADE EASIER WITH A RH WIND COMPONENT.
WHEN AIRSPEED IS LESS THAN 20 KT (37 KM/H), GO-AROUND IS IMPOSSIBLE DUE TO LOSS OF VERTICAL FIN EFFICIENCY.

  1. Cyclic and collective - ADJUST to set IAS to 70 kt
    (130 km/h) in level flight

On a suitable area for a running landing procedure:
Make a shallow approach with a slight left sideslip. Perform a running landing. The sideslip will be reduced progressively as airspeed is reduced and collective is applied to
cushion the landing.
