Q

What’s the signs of acute fatigue ?

Inattention, distractibility, error in timing, neglect of secondary tasks, loss of accuracy and control, lack of awareness, irritability

28
Q

What’s the signs of acute fatigue ?

A

Inattention, distractibility, error in timing, neglect of secondary tasks, loss of accuracy and control, lack of awareness, irritability

29
Q

What is the definition of settling with power ?

A

A condition of powered flight where the helicopter settles in its own downwash

30
Q

What happens when you settle with power ?

A

A greater descent rate causes the airflow on the inner portion of the blades to be upward (in relation to the disc) causing a secondary vortex ring resulting in loss of rotor efficiency.

31
Q

What conditions must be present for you to settle with power ?

A
  • A vertical or near vertical descent of at least 300 fpm
  • Slow airspeed (less than ETL)
  • 20-100% power applied
32
Q

What conditions are conducive with settling with power ?

A

Approach
-Steep approach with high descent rate
-Downwind approach
-Formation approach
Hovering
-Hovering above max hover ceiling
-Not maintaining altitude control during HOGE
-Masking/unmasking

33
Q

How do you recover from settling with power ?

A

Initial stages:
Collective increase
Advanced stage:
Directional flight (airspeed)

34
Q

What is dynamic rollover ?

A

The helicopters susceptibility to a lateral rolling tendency.

35
Q

Dynamic rollover

Where is the:
- Static rollover angle
- Critical angle

A

Static rollover angle
Aircraft CG is above pivot point
Critical angle
Varies on the rate of rolling motion.
When exceeded, pilot cannot recover

36
Q

What types of factors effect dynamic rollover

A

Human and physical

37
Q

Dynamic rollover

What’s the human factors

A
  1. Inexperience
  2. Inattention
  3. Failure to take timely corrective action
  4. Inappropriate control input
  5. Loss of visual reference
38
Q

Dynamic rollover

What’s the physical factors

A

Main rotor thrust
Tail rotor thrust
Crosswind
CG
Ground surface
Sloped landing area

39
Q

How is dynamic rollover prevented ?

A

Smooth moderate collective reduction

40
Q

What are the hazards to terrain flight ?

A

Meteorological
Visibility, Density, Winds and Ceilings
Physical
Natural: Trees, vegetation, birds, terrain
Manmade: Wires, towers, buildings
Human
Pilots attitude towards TN flight & fatigue - Must keep head out of cockpit

41
Q

Why is fatigue a difficult problem during terrain flight ?

A

Because it cannot be meassured and therefore often goes unrecognized

42
Q

What are the most common signs of fatigue ?

A
  1. Deterioration of performance and judgment
  2. Slow reaction time and poor coordination
  3. Object fixation
43
Q

What’s the best way to combat fatigue ?

A

Establish and adhere to a fighter managment program - maximizing aircrew coordination

44
Q

What weather would cause you to weather PL as a solo aircraft

A

Below 1000’ ceiling - 3 SM visibility

45
Q

Who should you call if you weather PL ?

47
Q

If you PL’ed the aircraft on the solo trip - can you takeoff again ?

A

No

48
Q

Which types of flightmodes can be utilized on the solo flight ?

A

Low level

NOT NOE & Contour

49
Q

When can you land (put the aircaft down on the ground) ?

A

When you’ve called chase aircraft

50
Q

When is solo downtime ?

A

30 min prior to normal downtime
15 min prior to sunset

51
Q

Where can you go on you’re solo flight ?

A

Approved: RT, basefield (shell) and airport (Troy)

52
Q

When can you overfly an RT

A

A

Level ground

57
Q

Seat swap: What should you make sure of in regards to the flight controls ?

A

Collective lock
Cyclic neutral
Twist grip idle

58
Q

The landing action for deteriorating weather conditions shall be under the ____ ?

A

Guidance of the chase aircraft

59
Q

Are the solo student responsible for meating the requirements for the “minimal essential equipment” list ?

A

Yes

60
Q

Is search light a part of the minimum equipment list ?

A

No - but it is for the solo

61
Q

A

Past the bridge/sprinkler transition

62
Q

Troy

Aircraft approaching from the west are expected to ?

A

Proceed north of the airport and enter the pattern on an extended base for 14

63
Q

What should be done once seat swap is complete ?

A

Utilize checklist, starting on page N-23, and perform pre takeoff checks through takeoff checks

64
Q

When is the student pilot considered lost ?

A

When orientation cannot be reestablished. Procedures shall be started if unable to orient within 1+1 after engine start or fuels is less than 350 lbs
