LAND IMMEDIATELY
Execute landing WITHOUT DELAY… Primary consideration is to assure SURVIVAL OF OCCUPANTS.
LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
Execute landing at the NEAREST AVAILABLE AREA AT WHICH A SAFE LANDING CAN BE MADE.
LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICAL
Extended flight is not recommended. Landing site and duration of flight is at DISCRETION OF THE PILOT-IN-COMMAND.

VRS - Cause, Stages and corrections
Caused by high sink rate + low airspeed.
SINK RATE aural annunciation comes on at <60KCAS ; >800fpm sink
Stage I
- characterized by increased vibration levels, pitch bucking, or sluggishness of aircraft response to control inputs
- corrective action - increase TCL; trim nacelles forward to max rate for 2sec (~15deg forward); fly out with forward stick
Stage II
- aural cues (rumbling onset), markedly increased descent rate, or improper roll control response as VRS gets worse
- corrective actions - trim the nacelles forward at max rate for two seconds (~15 deg forward); simultaneous and immediate forward stick to fly out of condition
*Increasing TCL in late stages of VRS may aggravate the condition and cause a roll-off
Stage III
- characterized by rapid uncommanded roll and corresponding large pitch; each rotor operating at very different aerodynamic conditions (known as “roll-off”)
- correction: nacelles should be rotated forward at max rate for 2 secs (~15 deg forward) and unusual attitude recovery procedures should be performed
