17
Q

Hovering Limitations

  1. Prolonged rearward flight and downwind hovering should be avoided to prevent accumulation of exhaust fumes in the helicopter and heat damage to the window on an open cabin door.
  2. Hovering turns at a rate in excess of ___ per second.
  3. Dipping sonar operations at altitudes other than __ feet.

CAUTION

Deviation of aircraft hover altitude from __ feet while transducer assembly is entering or exiting the water may result in damage to the dipping sonar equipment due to electrostatic discharge.

  1. Do not tow the transducer in the water above __ KGS with array folded and __ KGS with array unfolded.

CAUTION

Exceeding __ KGS with array folded or __ KGS with array unfolded may cause TA cable separation.

Note

Towing is defined as the cable contacting the funnel. Aircraft ground speed may be greater than __ KGS (folded) or __ KGS (unfolded) provided the cable

is not in contact with the funnel.

A
  1. Prolonged rearward flight and downwind hovering should be avoided to prevent accumulation of exhaust fumes in the helicopter and heat damage to the window on an open cabin door.
