COMPRESSOR STALL
*1. Collective — Lower.
*2. ENG Anti-ice switch — ON.
*3. Cabin Heat Valve — ON.
*4. Check power available.
If power is insufficient to maintain level flight:
*5. Autorotate.
*6. Twist grip — Flight Idle.
If power is sufficient to maintain level flight:
*7. Land as soon as possible.

-W: This emergency may result in engine failure.
-N0: If PA>PR to hover, a normal approach…
-N1: Power (collective) reduction will often eliminate
compressor stalls.
-N2: Power available is considered sufficient if level
flight can be maintained with Nr at 90 percent
or higher.
-N3: If some usable power exists but level flight
cannot be maintained, that power, if sufficient,
may be utilized to effect a landing or minimize
rate of descent enroute to suitable site for
autorotation.
-N4: Depending on time, altitude, and suitability of the landing site the pilot may attempt to increase the
twist grip after the compressor stall has cleared
to affect a power on landing. Increasing the twist
grip may re-aggravate the compressor stall.

  2. Low Nf.
A
*1. Collective — Lower as required to maintain a
minimum of 90% Nr.

-W: This emergency may result in engine failure.
-N1: If the pilot inadvertently rotates the twist grip out of the FULL OPEN position, it will create conditions that resemble underspeed indications. If the aircrew determines these conditions were induced by the pilot, flight may be continued once conditions return to normal.
-N2: Power available is considered sufficient if level
flight can be maintained with Nr at 90 percent
or higher.
-N3: If some usable power exists but level flight
cannot be maintained, that power, if sufficient,
may be utilized to effect a landing or minimize
rate of descent enroute to suitable site for
autorotation.
-N4: Depending on time, altitude, and suitability of the landing site the pilot may attempt to increase the
twist grip after the compressor stall has cleared
to affect a power on landing. Increasing the twist

Q

Engine Restart in Flight

A
*1. Ng — Note.
If Ng is below 12 percent:
*2. Twist grip — Close.
*3. Starter — ON.
*4. At 12 percent Ng, Twist grip — Full open.

speed within 10 seconds because of rotational
inertia plus possible ram effect. The twist grip
can be left full open, since fuel flow during the
start will be on the normal start acceleration
schedule.
-N2(C): Main generator and BUS/TIE RELAY -C- may

Q

A

Complete Loss of Tail Rotor Thrust
In a hover:
*1. Twist grip — Flight idle.
*2. Cyclic — Eliminate drift.
*3. Collective — Increase to cushion landing.
Transition to forward flight or hover/air taxi:
*1. Twist grip — Flight idle.
*2. Cyclic — Eliminate sideward drift.
*3. Collective — Increase to cushion landing.
At altitude:
*4. Autorotate.
If yaw is not controllable:
*5. Twist grip — Flight idle immediately.
If yaw is controllable:
*6. Continue powered flight and set up to a suitable
landing area at or above minimum rate of descent
autorotational airspeed.
*7. Autorotate.
*8. Twist grip — Rotate to flight idle prior to
touchdown.

-W: • Autorotation may be the safest option. Attempting
to control a loss of tail rotor thrust in powered
flight requires considerable skill and may result in
loss of aircraft control.
• Airspeed indications during side-slip are
unreliable. At airspeeds below approximately
50 knots, the side-slip may suddenly become
uncontrollable, and the helicopter will begin an
unrecoverable vertical axis “flat spin”.
• If attempting to achieve higher airspeeds, care
must be taken to avoid excessive cyclic inputs
coupled with large power settings that could lead
to mast bumping or rapid nose tucking.
In the autorotation, maintain airspeed above
minimum rate of descent airspeed until flare to
avoid loss of yaw control.
• Once the engine is secured, in the absence
of torque, the lift produced by the vertical fin
may tend to yaw the nose to the left at faster
speeds. As airspeed slows and Nr decays, the
decelerating rotorhead and swashplate friction
will create additional left yaw, increasing the
chance for rollover. Depending on landing profile,
consideration should be given to leaving twist grip
open until pulling collective at the bottom of the
autorotation to allow control of yaw with twist grip.

ultimately precipitate the complete failure of a
malfunctioning tail rotor.

Q

Right Yaw Indication: Pilot unable to control right yaw
in a hover with pedal input. If power is increased, it will
aggravate the degree of yaw.
Left Yaw Indication: Pilot unable to control left yaw in
a hover with pedal input. If power is decreased, it will
aggravate the degree of yaw.

A

Fixed Pitch Pedal in a Hover — Right Yaw:
If rate of rotation is not excessive and landing surface
is smooth and firm:
*1. Collective — Decrease to effect a power-on
landing.
If rate of rotation is excessive or landing surface is
unsuitable for a power-on landing:
*2. Twist grip — Reduce as nose approaches
windline.
*3. Cyclic — Eliminate drift.
*4. Collective — Increase to cushion landing.
Fixed Pitch Pedal in a Hover— Left Yaw:
If rate of rotation is not excessive and landing surface
is smooth and firm:
*1. Collective – Decrease to affect a power-on
landing.
If rate of rotation is excessive or landing surface is
unsuitable for a power-on landing:
*2. Smoothly increase collective to stop the left yaw.
*3. When the left yaw has stopped, smoothly
decrease collective to set up for a landing.
*4. Eliminate lateral drift with cyclic as the aircraft
settles.
*5. Continue to smoothly lower collective once on
deck to control yaw and transfer aircraft weight
to the skids.

-N1: • Steps 2 and 3 may need to be repeated until
acceptable yaw conditions are established for
landing.
• Twist grip manipulation may be required to aid
recovery.
