Emergency Procedures Flashcards
Engine Malfunction in Flight
- Control Nr.
- CONTGCY PWR switch - ON.
- Single-engine conditions - Establish
- ENG ANTI-ICE switches - As Required
- External Cargo/Stores/Fuel - Jettison/dump, as required.
- Identify Malfunction
W: flying with greater than 110% torque with one engine inoperative may result in unrecoverable decay in Nr in the event of a dual engine failure.
W: with engine anti ice on, up to 18% torque available is lost. Torque may be reduced as much as 49% with improperly operating engine inlet anti ice valves.
Eng High Side Failure in Flight
- EMIF EP - Perform
- PCL (Malfunctioning Engine) - Retard to set:
a. Torque 10% below good engine, or
b. Matched Ng
c. Matched TGT
C: if an Np overspeed condition is reached the overspeed system will flame out the engine and the auto ignition system will relight the engine. If Nr is not controlled and Np accelerates back to 120%, the overspeed System will flame out the engine again and the auto ignition system will reset the 5 second timer. The Np overspeed/auto ignition system will continue cycling until Np/Nr is controlled. A yaw kick may be experienced each time the engine relights.
N: with high collective settings, Nr may increase slowly, making high side failure confirmation difficult. Reducing collective will reveal increasing Nr and verify high side failure.
All of the following conditions exist: TRQ is 10% or greater than other engine. Ng is 5% or greater than other engine. Np is matched within 5% of other engine. Nr is at or above 103%.
Engine High Side Failure On Deck
- PCLs - Idle
Engine Low Side Failure
- EMIF EP - Perform
C: When an engine is manually controlled with the PCL in LOCKOUT, the engine response is much faster and the TGT limiting system is inoperative. Care must be taken to prevent exceeding TGT limits and keeping Nr and Np in their operating ranges; however, the Np overspeed System will still be operative.
All of the following conditions exist: TRQ is 10% below the good engine Ng is 5% or less than the good engine Np is at or below 98% Nr is at or below 97%
Engine Torque or TGT Spiking/Fluctuations
If an engine instrument is spiking/fluctuating and inducing secondary indications in Ng, Np and Nr:
1. EMIF - Perform
If fuel contamination is suspected:
2. Land as soon as possible
W: PCL movement during engine fluctuations may precipitate an engine failure. Consider performing APU Emergency Start procedure prior to manipulating the PCL. Maintaining a low power setting when moving the PCL will minimize the Nr decay rate if the malfunctioning engine fails.
Difference between engine torques is greater than 10%
Compressor Stall
- EMIF EP - Perform
- PCL (Malfunctioning Engine) - IDLE
C: if the Ng decay relight feature attempts to relight the engine, subsequent compressor stalls may occur and damage the engine. A yaw kick may be experienced each time the engine relights. The engine must be manually shut down.
Engine High Speed Shaft Failure
- EMIF EP - Perform
- PCL (Malfunctioning Engine) - OFF
C: following a High speed shaft failure, the engine will overspeed, the Np overspeed System will flame out the engine, and the auto ignition system will activate the relight feature. The engine Np governor will eventually bring down Np down toward 100%. The engine must be manually shut down to prevent further damage.
N: the engine Np sensor is unreliable with Np < 20%. For this reason any DRVSHAFT FAIL (#1/#2) should be acknowledged and ignored when Engine Np <20%. No maintenance action is required when in this condition.
Abort Start
- PCL - OFF
- Engine Ignition Switch - OFF
If oil pressure is indicated:
3. Starter - Engage
Ng does not reach 14% within 6 seconds after started initiation.
No oil pressure within 30 seconds after started initiation (do not motor engine)
No light off within 30 seconds after moving PCL to IDLE
ENG STARTER advisory disappears before reaching 52%
TGT is likely to exceed 851c before idle speed is attained
C: during aborted starts, failure to immediately stop fuel flow may result in engine overtemperature.
LDS Malfunction
ON DECK
—————-
PCLs Idle: Ng of malf eng 3% to 4% higher than other eng.
During rotor engagement: Eng w/ failed LDS indicates higher TRQ as PCLs are advanced to fly. Good engine may not indicate any TRQ until it’s PCL is in FLY.
PCLs in FLY, collective full down: indications may range from matched TRQ, 100% Np/Nr (no indications of failure), to possible 1 to 2% TRQ split with Nr and both Nps matched 1 to 2% above 100%.
IN FLIGHT
——————
Initial Collective Increase during Takeoff: TRQ Split. TRQ of the engine with the failed LDS will be lower than the good engine.
Stable Hover: Matched TRQs
Collective Increases (below 75% of full up position): TRQ Split. TRQ of bad engine will be lower.
Collective Increases (above 75% of full up): no TRQ Split, both LDS are at max setting.
Collective Decreases (to below 75% full up): TRQ Split. TRQ of bad engine higher.
Stable Flight: Matched TRQs
Autorotation: Rapid Np/Nr rise. Bad engine may show residual TRQ of apprx 12% with collective full down.
Engine Malfunction During Hover/Takeoff
- Control Nr
- C-PWR switch - ON
If a suitable landing site exists or unable to transition to forward flight.
- Set level attitude, eliminate drift, cushion landing.
If able to transition to forward flight.
- EMIF EP - Perform
Dual Engine Failure
- Autorotation - Establish
- Immediate Landing/ditching Emergency Procedure - Perform
If time and altitude permit:
3. Eng Air Restart Emer Proc - Perform
Single engine out in flight
- EMIF- Perform
Difference between torques >10%
Engine Air Restart
- APU emergency start procedure- as required
- Engine ignition switch- norm
- Fuel selector levers- DIR or XFD
- PCLs- Off
- Starter- Engage, motor engine
- PCLs- Idle (TGT 80c or less if time permits)
- PCLs- advance to fly after started dropout
WARNING: if APU is unavailable and a crossbleed start is necessary, maximum torque available will be reduced during the start sequence. Depending on operating conditions level flight may not be possible. Ensure AIR SOURCE ECS/START switch is placed to ENG for crossbleed starts.
CAUTION: For a crossbleed start the donor engine should indicate the max Ng safely obtainable. Receiving Ng less than 24% prior to advancing PCL to Idle may result in a hot start.
NOTE: Either a single or a dual engine restart may be attempted following a dual engine failure. Decision should be based on applicability of respective start envelopes and considerations of longer time to Idle when executing a dual engine restart.
APU Emergency Start
- ECS- Off
- Air source ECS/start switch- APU
- Fuel pump switch- APU boost
- APU contr switch- On
- APU generator switch- On
UNUSUAL VIBRATIONS ON DECK
- Collective- Lower
- PCLs- Off
- Rotor break- Apply as required
CAUTION: Application of the rotor break may aggravate lead/lag tendencies and cause a mechanical failure
HUNG DROOP STOPS
- Reengage rotors to greater than 75% Nr
NOTE: While operating in cold weather, consideration should be give to turning the BLADE DEICE Control label POWER switch to the POWER ON position. This will activate the droop stop heaters and aid the droop stops in seating.
LOW ROTOR RPM
- Control Nr
Activated when Nr vertical instrument is less than 96%
MAIN TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION
If Failure is imminent
- Land immediately
If secondary indications exist
- Land as soon as possible
WARNING: possible indications of main transmission imminent failure may include yaw attitude excursions with no control input, an increase in power required for a fixed collective setting, failure of a main generator or hyd pump, increase noise, increased vibration levels or abnormal fumes in the cabin.
WARNING: operation of the main gearbox with no oil pressure may result in failure of the tail rotor driveshaft takeoff pinion gear and subsequent loss of tail rotor drive.
NOTE: consideration should be given to performing the applicable steps of the immediate landing/ditching EP and transiting at a minimum power airspeed and low altitude profile (80’ and 80kts) to permit a quick flare followed by immediate landing/ditching.
- a loss of all main transmission lubricating oil may result in unreliable temperature indications from the main transmission temperature gauge and temperature sensor (caution)
- continued operation in the precautionary range for temperature and pressure are acceptable provided that the ambient conditions and flight regime of the aircraft correspond with the guidance set forth in the limitations section of chapter 4.
TAIL/INTERMEDIATE TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION
If Failure is imminent
- Land immediately
If Failure is not imminent
- Land as soon a possible
WARNING: High power settings require maximum performance of the tail rotor drive system and may precipitate ultimate drive failure.
- Consideration should be given to transiting at an altitude sufficient to enter an autorotation and performing the applicable steps of the immediate landing/ditching EP
INPUT CHIP (#1/#2) CAUTION
- MAIN TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION EP- Perform
NOTE: Consideration should be given to returning the engine PCL to fly for landing.
LOSS OF TAIL ROTOR DRIVE
SUFFICIENT ALT/AS TO ESTABLISH AUTOROTATION
- PAC call- AUTO AUTO AUTO
- Autorotarion- establish, center tail rotor pedals.
- Drive Failure- attempt to verify
- Immediate landing/ditching EP- Perform
- PCLs- OFF when directed (prior to the flare)
WARNING: Altitude hold will remain engaged unless deselected. If the collective TRIM RLSE switch is not depressed the AFCS will attempt to maintain aircraft altitude through the collective trim servo. AFCS commanded collective movement can result in an accelerated yaw rate.
LOSS OF TAIL ROTOR DRIVE
ALT/AS INSUFFICIENT TO ESTABLISH AUTOROTATION
- PAC call- HOVER HOVER HOVER
- Collective- Lower
- PNAC- Hands On PCLs
- PCLs- OFF when directed (approximately 20-30’)
CAUTION: Altitude may have to be adjusted based on rate of yaw and/or turn.
