EC130B4 Flashcards
CRUISE FLIGHT – Autorotation procedure over land:
-Collective pitch – REDUCE to maintain NR.
-IAS – SET to VY.
If no relighting or tail rotor control failure:
-Twist grip – IDLE detent.
-Maneuver into the wind on final.
-At ≈ 70 feet: Cyclic – FLARE
-At 20/25: Collective pitch – GRADUALLY INCREASE
-Cyclic – FORWARD for slightly nose-up landing attitude
IN FLIGHT RELIGHTING:
According to available height and cause of flame-out:
- Starting selector – OFF position.
- [FUEL PUMP] – ON.
- Starting selector – ON position.
- The relighting sequence will therefore be automatically carried out as soon as NG
HOVERING AUTO- IGE:
- Collective – MAINTAIN.
- Pedals – CONTROL YAW.
- Collective – INCREASE as needed to cushion touch-down.
HOVERING AUTO- OGE:
- Collective pitch – FULLY DOWN.
When NR stops decreasing: - Cyclic – FORWARD to gain airspeed according to available height.
- Autorotation procedure – APPLY.
-WARNING: SAFE AUTOROTATIVE LANDING CAN NOT BE WARRANTED IN CASE OF A FAILURE IN HOGE BELOW THE TOP POINT OF THE HV DIAGRAM.
TAIL ROTOR CONTROL FAILURE- IGE or OGE in HV diagram:
- LAND IMMEDIATELY
- Twist grip – IDLE detent.
- Collective – INCREASE to cushion touch-down
TAIL ROTOR CONTROL FAILURE- OGE (Clear area, out of HV diagram):
Simultaneously,
- Collective – REDUCE depending on available height.
- Cyclic – FORWARD to gain speed.
- Cyclic – ADJUST to set IAS to VY and control yaw.
- LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
- If a go-around has been performed, carry out an autorotative landing.
WARNING: SAFE AUTOROTATIVE LANDING CAN NOT BE WARRANTED IN CASE OF A FAILURE IN HOGE BELOW THE TOP POINT OF THE HV DIAGRAM OR IN CONFINED AREA.
TAIL ROTOR CONTROL FAILURE- CRUISE FLIGHT:
- Cyclic – ADJUST to set IAS to VY and control yaw.
- Collective – REDUCE to avoid sideslip.
- LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
- Approach and landing: Carry out an autorotative landing to a suitable area as landing procedure.
SMOKE IN THE CABIN- SOURCE NOT IDENTIFIED:
Heating, demisting – OFF
-If smoke clears CONTINUE FLIGHT
-If smoke does not clear:
1. [MASTER SWITCH – SHUT OFF.
2. [DIRECT BATT] – OFF.
3. EXT PWR BATT] – OFF.
4. [GENE] – OFF.
5. [MASTER AVIONIC] – OFF.
6. Ventilate the cabin.
-When smoke clears:
1. All consumers – OFF; visually or via [SCU TST]
2. [MASTER SWITCH] – ON.
3. [EXT PWR BATT] – ON, check DC parameters.
4. [DIRECT BATT] – ON, check DC parameters.
5. [GENE] – ON, check DC parameters.
-If DC parameters correct and no smoke detected:
6. [MASTER AVIONIC] – ON.
7. All consumers – ON, one by one to identify the failed system; then keep it off.
-If DC parameters not correct:
8. [GENE] – OFF.
9. Unnecessary equipment – OFF.
10. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
CAUTION: When battery and generator are off line, the VEMD goes out and only the NR gauge remains. Apply both screen failure procedure.
SMOKE IN THE CABIN- SOURCE IDENTIFIED:
- Corresponding system – OFF.
- Ventilate the cabin
- CONTINUE FLIGHT depending on system failed.
NOTE: After DC had been switched off and on in flight, GOV light will remain on until the next normal full engine and battery switch off on the ground.
VEMD SCREEN FAILURE:
- IAS kt = 100 kt at sea level – (2 kt / 1,000 ft HP)
- LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
- Landing procedure – Carry out a no hover landing.
NR INDICATION FAILURE:
- Collective – MAINTAIN Tq > 10%.
- NR reading is given by NF pointer. - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE
NF INDICATION FAILURE:
- NR gauge – CHECK in green range with Tq > 0.
- CONTINUE FLIGHT
NOTES:
- The NF value can be read on the VEMD screen. Press [SELECT], then [+] as many times as required to display the parameter in the rectangular window at the bottom of the FLI or 3-data screen.
- In the case of NF indication failure, the EBCAU may not be available.
ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE OVER 115°C:
- Airspeed – SET to 80 kts.
- If temperature reduces: - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.
- If temperature does NOT reduce: - LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
- Check cooler fan operation.
LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE:
- Caution and warning panel – CHECK ENG P light.
- If illuminated: - LAND IMMEDIATELY
- Autorotation procedure – Apply.
- Shutdown engine time permitting.
- If NOT illuminated: - CWP light test – COMPLETED.
- If still NOT illuminated: - LAND IMMEDIATELY.
- Autorotation procedure – APPLY.
- Shutdown engine time permitting
- If illuminated AFTER CWP light test completed: - LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE
- ENGINE FIRE- AT START-UP:
- ENGINE FIRE- HOVER, TAKEOFF, FINAL:
- Starting selector – OFF position.
- Emergency fuel shut-off handle – AFT.
- Booster pump – OFF.
- [CRANK] – DEPRESS (10 seconds).
- [MASTER SW] – SHUT OFF.
- Rotor brake – APPLY (≤ 170 RPM).
- Evacuate aircraft and fight fire from outside.
- LAND IMMEDIATELY.
- Carry out a no hover, powered landing then, once on ground, apply same procedure as above
ENGINE FIRE- IN FLIGHT:
- LAND IMMEDIATELY.
- Collective pitch – REDUCE.
- IAS – VY.
- Autorotation procedure – APPLY.
- Emergency fuel shut-off handle – AFT.
- Starting selector – OFF position.
- After landing: - [MASTER SW] – SHUT OFF.
- Rotor brake – APPLY (≤ 170 RPM).
- Evacuate aircraft and fight fire from outside.
