Emergency Procedures

Question 1

Engine Failure in a HIGE ( Ground effect up to 30 KIAS)

Answer 1

1. Collective - Maintain initially then increase to cushion the touchdown
2. Pedals - Control Yaw Rate
3. Cyclic - Adjust to obtain skid level attitude

Question 2

Engine Failure on Takeoff

Answer 2

1. Collective - Lower immediately to stop Nr decay
2. Pedals - Control Yaw Rate
3. Cyclic - Forward to increase airspeed
4. Autorotative landing - complete

Question 3

Engine Failure in a HOGE

Answer 3

1. Collective - Lower immediately to stop Nr decay
2. Pedals - Control yaw rate
3. Cyclic - Forward to increase airspeed
4. Autorotative landing - Complete

Question 4

Engine Failure in Cruise Flight

Answer 4

1. Collective - Lower immediately to stop Nr decay
2. Pedals - Control yaw rate
3. Cyclic - Adjust to desired airspeed
4. Landing site - Select and maneuver into the wind
5. Harness - lock
   If time and altitude permit:
6. MAYDAY - Transmit
7. Transponder - 7700
8. Engine Restart in Flight - As required
   If engine remains off/failed:
9. Autorotative Landing - Complete
   Caut: Keep rotor speed between 90 and 110% Nr
   Note: Airspeed for min rate of descent is 70 KIAS
   Airspeed for max glide is 100 KIAS

Question 5

Engine Restart in Flight

Answer 5

1. Gen switch - OFF
2. Twist Grip - OFF
3. Start PB - Press and Release
   When N1 reaches 10-20%:
4. Twist Grip - Idle
   When starter drops out and N1 is 61%:
5. Twist Grip - FLT
6. Gen switch - ON
   CAUT: When the cause of an engine failure is due to a mechanical issue, do not attempt restart

Question 6

Abort Start

Answer 6

1. Twist Grip - OFF
2. IGN Switch - OFF
3. Starter PB - Continue to operate until ITT decreases to normal range
4. Fuel Valve switch - CLOSED
5. Fuel Pump 1 and 2 switches - OFF
6. XFER Pump switch - OFF
   CAUT:
   -Excessive rise in ITT, ITT rapidly accelerating through 870C and/or low battery voltage on starter engagement, indicates an increased potential for a hot start and may require aborting the start to preclude exceeding ITT start limits
   -Monitor engine start and if light off does not occur within 10 sec after the twist grip is set to idle, abort the start.
   -Failure to utilize GPU/Battery cart on subsequent start attempts may result in a hot start.
