Emergency Shutdown

A
    1. Throttles — CLOSE.
    1. Rotor brake — ENGAGE.
    1. Batteries — OFF.
      1. Exit helicopter.

[CAUTION]
An emergency engine shutdown occurs when the engine is shut down from a high power setting (above 90 percent Ng) without performing a 2-minute
cooldown. If a normal engine cooldown was not possible, the engine can be restarted if:

— The reason for shutdown is known and restarting will not causeengine damage.

— The engine is motored to cool MGT to 150 °C and restart is initiatedwithin 5 minutes after shutdown.

— The engine is allowed to cool for 4 hours if restart cannot be initiatedwithin 5 minutes after shutdown.

Q

SCAS FAILURE

A

INDICATIONS:

  1. Reduction in helicopter stability in affected axis(es).
  2. Increase in pilot workload to maintain desired attitude.
  3. Larger attitude deviations than experienced with an operable SCAS.
  4. Possible sudden roll, pitch, or yaw rates separately.

PROCEDURES:

*1. SCAS (affected channels) — OFF.

Note
When the affected SCAS channel is disengaged, the SCAS actuator will return to the centered position almost instantaneously; this coupled with a
simultaneous pilot input to stop the attitude excursion could also result in a greater than expected helicopter response in the opposite direction. If affected channel(s) cannot be identified or excessive aircraft attitude rates develop:

*2. SAS REL switch — PRESS.

WARNING:
Pressing the SAS REL switch will disengage all SCAS channels. The aircraft will simultaneously display unstable tendencies about the pitch, roll,
and yaw axes. Although control of the aircraft can be maintained and safe flight continued, the unstable condition will be aggravated by overcontrolling the aircraft or making large control inputs which could lead to out-of-control flight.

*3. Airspeed — REDUCE (as necessary to maintain controllability).

Note
Airspeed may be adjusted as necessary, however, use caution at higher airspeeds. The decreased aircraft stability and increased control response during SCAS-OFF flight will result in increasingly higher pilot workloads as airspeed increases. Experience has shown that flight below 100 KIAS while avoiding large control inputs will provide an acceptable pilot workload level.

  1. Unaffected SCAS channel(s) — REENGAGE (as required).

Note
The affected SCAS channel(s) may be identified by separately engaging each SCAS channel and observing the previously experienced malfunction
indications. In flight, SCAS channel engagement will most likely be attempted with the SCAS rate gyros in a non-nulled condition (i.e., engagement with the NO-GO lights illuminated). In this condition, the actuator will normally make an abrupt input to the flight controls at the moment of engagement.
Attempt to minimize control inputs while reengaging SCAS channels.

  1. Land as soon as practicable.

Q

Loss of Tail Rotor Thrust or Components In Flight

A

INDICATIONS:

  1. Uncontrollable right yaw.
  2. Left roll.
  3. Possible nose down pitch. If the loss of thrust is due to the loss of tail rotor components, there may be nosedown tucking and possible high-frequency airframe and/or pedal vibrations.

PROCEDURES:

*1. Flight controls — ADJUST (collective full down, cyclic as appropriate in an attempt to regain controlled flight).

WARNING
Failure to immediately reduce collective can result in sustained right yaw rates of 120-180 degrees per second, thus making a successful autorotation
extremely difficult, as the aircraft may enter the shaded portion of the HV diagram.
*2. Wing stores — JETTISON (as appropriate).

Note
If time and altitude permit, a combination of collective, cyclic, and throttle manipulations may be made in an attempt to reduce rate of descent and extend range.

When committed to landing:
3. Autorotative landing — ACCOMPLISH.

SINGLE ENGINE FAILURE IN FLIGHT

A

INDICATIONS:

  1. Smoke.
  2. Fumes.
  3. Fire.
  4. FIRE PULL and FIRE ENG warning lights and aural alert (affected engine).
  5. Smoke trail observed during yaw maneuver.

PROCEDURES:

    1. Flight controls — ADJUST (to establish single engine parameters).
    1. Wing stores — JETTISON (as appropriate).
    1. Throttle (affected engine) — CLOSE.

WARNING
If the FUEL LOW caution light is illuminated, the fuel crossfeed valve will open and the fuel boost pumps will activate, pressurizing the fuel system.

  1. FUEL TANK INTCON switch — OPEN.
  2. Land as soon as possible.

If fire persists:

  1. Land immediately.

Q

AUTOROTATION

A
    1. Flight controls — ADJUST (to maintain Nr and desired airspeed).
    1. Wing stores — JETTISON (as appropriate).
    1. Throttles — CLOSE.

Note
Regardless of sink rate at touchdown, damage will be minimized when in a level attitude.

If time and altitude permit:

  1. FUEL ENG 1 and ENG 2 — OFF.

After touchdown:

  1. Helicopter — SHUT DOWN.

Note
The best glide airspeed is 99 KIAS. The minimum rate-of-descent airspeed is 66 KIAS. Do not exceed 120 KIAS during autorotation. Best NR airspeed is 60-80 KIAS.
