Flight Manual, EMRG Training SI’s & Flying Guide Summary Flashcards
In VFR conditions, what is the difference between land “immediately”, “as soon as possible” and “as soon as practical”?
Immediately: The urgency of landing is paramount, survival is the primary consideration. Landing in water, trees, streets etc is considered if the pilot deems it the safest option. E.g. ENG fire which doesn’t go out OR fuel starvation both engines
A controlled landing in trees is better than a crash landing in a field
As soon as possible: Land without delay at the nearest adequate site (open field)
As soon as practical: Cancel your mission and RTB, make an assessment of time and consider options should the EMRG worsen
In IFR conditions, what is the difference between land “immediately” and “as soon as possible”?
Immediately: Attempt to establish VMC at LSALT, if unable perform an ENALD IAW 124 OIP
As soon as possible: Attempt to establish VMC at LSALT, if unable land at nearest airfield with an IFR approach
One engine inoperative (OEI) has two sub categories, what are they?
- Engine trending zero (total failure)
- Engine still delivers some power (partial failure)
What is the process for resetting circuit breakers (CBs) on the ground vs in the air?
Ground
- Flight CX, maintenance looks over to determine the cause
In flight
- Pilots discretion that resetting the CBs is necessary for safe flight. If tripped for a second time do not reset
You have had a total engine failure, what are your general considerations?
- Maintain the operational engine within limits
- Attempt safe single engine flight
You have had a partial engine failure and are still receiving some power, what are you general considerations?
- Escape immediate danger (winching, low level, IMC etc) with both engines
- Establish steady level flight, put the damaged engine to idle and determine if OEI flight is possible
- If OEI flight is possible continue, if not land as soon as possible.
If a LOW FUEL 1/2 Warning is displayed but no fuel caution exists on the CAD, how should the pilot react?
LOW FUEL Warning should be followed as its data comes from a seperate and independent sensor
What is the ability for the pilot to have multiple uses of ENG CHIP burning?
ENG CHIP Burn function can be used once, if the caution is not removed then another use cannot be used. If the caution goes away and then comes back on the same engine then another use is allowed.
Abort start criteria
- No ignition by 20% N1 or 15 sec (after selecting idle)
- Abnormal noises/vibrations
- TOT rises above 810ºC and approaches 895ºC
- Engine hangs (defined as:
- No ENG/transmission oil pressure after ground idle
- N1/N2 out of limits
- Starter still engaged at N1 50%+
- Auto restart not successful
What is meant by “OEI Flight condition - Establish”? (Sect 3 FM)
What is the ICS principle?
Is a three step process used to confirm the correct switch and action is selected.
Identify - Required switch is named, NFP makes physical contact holding the switch/button
Confirm - FP visually confirms the the NFP has selected the correct switch
Select - The aircraft captain will say: “Select” and the NFP will action what’s required
During flight, what controls must use I-C-S procedure?
- ENG MAIN sw’s
- XFER Pumps sw’s
- Engine twist grips
- ENG MODE sel sw’s
- ENG EMERG OFF pb’s
What are the restrictions for a QHI induced autorotation?
- VMC
- Verbal announcement
- If below 500ft AGL using power recovery not below 15ft AGL
What are the flight control/AFCS malfunctions allowed while flying in VMC?
- AP failure (via pressing AP button on APMS)
- A. TRIM (via deselecting A.TRIM on APMS)
- Complete AFCS failure (via SAS/AP CUT Botton)
- Yaw control EMRG *(jammed pedal only in forward flight must end at an airfield)
Note: *All EMERGs above can be conducted with partial panel e.g. 1 or both PFDs failed)
During IMC, what EMRGs can be trained for in flight?
