A

Two on folding part of pylon (5 degree switch and the one on the starboard side)

Two stabilator lock pins

Tail rotor indexer retracted

39
Q

What are the two categories of transmission malfunctions?

A

Chip or lubrication

40
Q

If a chip is present in a module what should you consider?

A

Reducing the load on that particular module.

e.g. PCL to IDLE, secure a generator, secure both generators once APU generator is up, etc

41
Q

What does a low but steady transmission oil pressure indicate?

A

A single pump failure

42
Q

What does a continually leaking transmission oil pressure indicate?

A

A leak

43
Q

What do you lost once oil is depleted and pressure has dropped?

A

No oil to the temperature sensors or chip detectors so those sensors will not indicate properly.

44
Q

Previous events of a complete loss of lubrication in main gearbox have shown that the ______ ______ ______ will likely fail first, resulting in a loss of tail rotor drive in as little as _____ minutes.

A

Tail drive pinion

8 minutes

45
Q

Drive failures were proceeded by a dramatic increase in vibrations/noise approximately _____ minute(s) prior to failure.

A

1 minute

46
Q

Indications of an Imminent Transmission Failure

A

Yaw attitude excursions with no control input

Increased power required for a fixed collective setting

Failure of a main gen or hyd pump

Increased noise

Increased vibrations

Abnormal fumes in the cockpit

47
Q

Indications of an imminent tail rotor failure

A

Strong medium frequency vibrations

Hot metal fumes

Any other associated indication

48
Q

What is the hazard in delaying autorotation with a loss of tail rotor drive?

A

Large sideslip angles can develop, causing low indicated airspeed which then will cause the stab to program down. Then making it difficult to establish and maintain auto rotational airspeed.

49
Q

How do you check for tail rotor control in the AUTO, AUTO, AUTO procedure?

A

The application of slight right pedal should reveal the tendency to yaw with a functioning tail rotor.

This should not be confused with the pitching moment created by the mixing unit (yaw to longitudinal).

50
Q

In an autorotation with both engines secured, the cushioning collective pull at the bottom will result in yaw in which direction?

A

Left yaw, vice the right yaw associated with practice (power on) autorotations.

51
Q

What are the three types of loss of tail rotor control malfunctions?

A

Control cable failure

Servo failure

Restricted flight controls

52
Q

What occurs when both tail rotor cables fail?

A

Tail rotor will assume a preset spring loaded position where at 19,500 lb gross weight, balanced flight will occur at 25 KIAS and 145 KIAS.

53
Q

Where does the remaining tail rotor control come from with a servo failure (loss of #1 pump and backup pump)?

A

Yaw boost servo is still pressurized and normal yaw control is available between 40-120 KIAS.

54
Q

What it’s important to note about the tail rotor cables in a servo failure?

A

Elongation and/or failure of the tail rotor cables may occur if there is no yaw response with pedal inputs. If airspeed decreases below 40 KIAS, a lot of tail rotor control will likely occur.

55
Q

What type of landing is recommended for a servo failure? Can you reduce collective after touchdown?

A

A roll on landing above 40 KIAS. Yes, once on deck and torque is reduced, yaw control should be regained.

56
Q

How do you overcome a yaw trim malfunction, induced by the AFCS, producing up to 30 lb of force at the pedal? Or a jammed yaw trim actuator producing up to 80 lb of force?

A

Apply opposite pedal firmly and then turn off the trim.

57
Q

How will a fixed pitch right pedal landing look?

A

May need a minimum power required run on landing, perhaps as high as the minimum power required airspeed (70 KIAS)

58
Q

How will a fixed pitch left pedal landing look?

A

Allows for slower airspeeds or even a normal approach to a hover, but may require dropping PCLs depending on severity of stuck left.

59
Q

How do you do a controllability check?

A

Establish level flight, reduce airspeed to bring the nose back to the left, note airspeed which the nose is centered (ball centered) and starts to yaw right.

Slowly decrease collective and increase airspeed to maintain wave off capability and bring nose back to the left.
