Hot start
Max MGT during start shall not exceed 867 degrees C
Engine start abort criteria
- Ng fails to reach 14 percent within 6 sec
- No MGT indication within 30 sec after the starter engages
- Oil pressure is not evident within 30 sec after starter is engaged. Do not motor engine if aborting due to lack of oil pressure.
- MGT reaches 867 degrees C before starter disengages
- starter fails to disengage above 55+-3 percent Ng
- Rotor brake light fails to extinguish within 30sec after rotor brake is released
- No Np within 30 seconds from Ng reaching idle of 67+- 3%
Max wind for rotor start stop
60 knots from any direction
Caution - inadvertent control system inputs and out of balance conditions may cause structural damage as the rotor decelerates through 65% Nr
Rotor brake limits
1&2. Do not apply rotor brake above 60% or below 25% Nr except in an emergency
- Release rotor brake prior to 0% Nr.
- During rotor brake start release rotor brake within 25 seconds after engine idle RPM 67+-3% Ng is attained
- During rotor brake start the light should go out within 30 seconds after the brake is released
- Do not exceed idle rpm with rotor brake engaged
