Q

What causes Settling with power and how will you eliminate the conditions?

A

Excessive rate of decent, high power setting, calm or tail wind condition.

Make sure not to approach downwind.
Stabilize approach from 300 AGL, do not exceed 200 FPM rate of decent.

Changing the lateral position at least the width of the rotor disc can help recovery.

80
Q

Describe how relative wind is a factor during an autorotation?

A

During an autorotation it is imperative to change the direction of relative wind from straight ahead to up thru the rotor. The wrong direction of relative wind will cause rotor decay.

91
Q

What does the abbreviation SAS mean?

A

Stability Augmentation System

92
Q

Where are the Helipilot systems located on the A119?

In the Nose avionics bay.

93
Q

Where are the synchro’s located on the A119?

A

Under the front seats.

94
Q

Why does the force trim system have to be on to use the SAS properly?

A

95
Q

How many VG’s does the A119 have?

A

2, located in the nose bay.

96
Q

What electrical source powers the SAS system?

A

115 VAC inverters

97
Q

Explain how the SAS works?

A

98
Q

If you loose one inverter, what will be effected and what action does the pilot take.

A

If one inverter fails, the corresponding SAS system will automatically trip off line. The operating Inverter will automatically pick up the load of the failed inverter, but the pilot will have to re-engage the failed SAS system.

99
Q

What capability is lost if the #2 SAS fails?

A

The attitude hold function will be inoperative.

100
Q

If you encounter oscillations on landing, what action should you take?
