Maneuver Standards

Question 1

TASK 1040
Perform Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC) Takeoff

Answer 1

1. Maintain takeoff heading ±10 degrees below 50 feet or until clear of the obstacles, or limited power takeoff until through ETL.
2. Maintain ground track alignment with the takeoff direction.
3. Maintain the aircraft in trim above 50 feet AGL or as appropriate for obstacle avoidance.
4. Accelerate to desired airspeed ±10 knots.
5. Apply takeoff power, not to exceed maximum available for the selected takeoff, until reaching desired altitude, minimum single engine airspeed, or as conditions permit

Question 2

TASK 1062
Perform Slope Operations

Answer 2

1. Set the parking brake prior to landing.
2. Maintain heading ±5 degrees.
3. Maintain minimum drift after wheel contact with the ground.
4. Do not exceed slope limits of the current operator’s manual.
5. Perform a smooth, controlled descent and touchdown.
6. Perform a smooth, controlled ascent

Question 3

TASK 1064
Perform a Roll-On Landing

Answer 3

1. Touchdown at or above ETL
2. Maintain ground track alignment with the landing direction with minimum drift.
3. Maintain a constant approach angle to the desired point of touchdown with deviations for surface conditions or obstacles in the landing area.
4. Maintain runway or suitable landing area alignment +/-5 degree

Question 4

TASK 1114
Perform Rolling Takeoff: Before liftoff

Answer 4

a. Position the stabilator to 0 degrees trailing edge down (TED).
b. Establish and maintain a simulated power limit of 10% below hover power ±3 % or, when IGE hover power is limited or not available, as described in the Task 1010 procedures ±3 %.
c. Coordinate accelerating the aircraft while maintaining aircraft longitudinal alignment in coincidence with the takeoff area’s heading/direction±5 degrees.
d. Do not allow the aircraft nose to drop below the fuselage level until the aircraft departs the takeoff surface
