Q

What’s go around procedure ?

A
  1. Call TWR “Go around”
  2. Normal climb (65 KIAS, 500 fpm) to 200’ above pattern altitude
  3. Continue straight ahead until clear of trafic (unless TWR calls with instructions)
  4. Fly to a point well clear of trafic pattern and reenter traffic in normal manner

Q

What’s the procedure for a running landing ?

A
  1. Shallow approach angle
  2. Entry speed until GS rate of closure appears to be increasing - Then adjust to arrive at 50’ / 40 KIAS
  3. MAX rate of descent at touchdown is 300 FPM
  4. Cyclic adjust to attain attitude that maintains ETL
  5. Call out *“I will touch down at this speed and power setting” *

Q

What’s the procedure for VFR planning

A
  1. Obtain weather
  2. Flight possible - NOTAM, charts, restrictions ?
  3. Heading, GS, ETE for each leg + alternate airfield
  4. Compute distance + flight time + fuel
  5. Weight and CG

15
Q

What’s the standards for each leg of a VFR flight plan and fuel needed ?

A

Each leg:
Distance +/- 1 NM
GS +/- 5 KIAS
ETE +/- 1 min
headings +/- 5 degrees

Fuel for mission +/- 100 lbs

16
Q

How is hover power check performed ?

A

Pilot on control annonce:
Intent to hover + a/c stabil + hover alt

Pilot not on control:
Actual hover TQ to predicted
“Hover check complete”

17
Q

When at KOZR which two hover checks do we perform before T/O and how ?

A
  1. At the pad “Flight controls and CG normal - below GO/NOGO-Call pad clean and clear”
  2. Before T/O - Line up in RW direction
    P* “Hover power check, A/C stabil, 3 ft hover”
    P “Predicted hover TQ xx, actual XX”
    P* “Hover check complete”
    P* Fuel for mission
18
Q

What’s level off check after T/O from Cairns inbound stagefield

A

“Cruise power - Applied
Fuel check: Fuel in main is xxx, time is now xx, timer started
LDG light - ON”

19
Q

What check at the end of the corridor ?

A

“Avionics and displays (TWR/GLS1)
Begining climb to pattern altitude
Before landing check”

SOP : ( Climb to 3500’, 7700, call app on guard 121.5/234)

21
Q

What’s transponder code for inadvertent IMC ?

A

7700

22
Q

What’s the angles (degrees) for the following approaches:
1. Shallow
2. Normal
3. Steep

A

Shallow: 3-5º
Normal: 7-12º
Steep: 13-15º

23
Q

Why should we avoid steep right turn close to the ground when flying below 45 KIAS ?

A

To maintain sufficient lateral control margin for recovery

24
Q

What’s the 3 categories for a bank (turning) and how many degrees are they?

A

Shallow: 15º
Medium: 30º
Steep: 45º

25
Q

Where do we, as a standard, enter traffic pattern downwind ?

A

45º to the middle 1/3

26
Q

How much TQ is approximately needed to go from cruise to 500 fpm climb ?

A

10% TQ more

27
Q

What’s the standard for slope operations ?

A

Maintain hrading +/- 5 degrees
Maintain drift +/- 1 foot

28
Q

What’s the procedure for slope operation landing ?

A
  1. Announce intent plus established
  2. Note a/c hover attitude
  3. Suitable area, prefered into the wind
  4. Annonce when initiate
  5. Lower collective until upslope skid contact\
  6. Press FTR, maintain position and land (if MM allows)
29
Q

What’s procedure for slope takeoffs ?

A
  1. Announce
    ( + before T/O check and clear a/c )
  2. Cyclic into slope (MM)
  3. Raise collective to raise downslope skid
