MRH Bold Face Flashcards
LAND (OR DITCH) IMMEDIATELY
The urgency of landing is paramount. Primary consideration is to assure survival of the occupants. Landing in water, trees, or other unsafe areas should be considered only as a last resort.
LAND ASAP
Emergency conditions are urgent and require landing at the nearest landing site at which a safe landing can be made.
LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE
Emergency conditions are less urgent and in the pilot’s judgement, he may proceed to the nearest airfield or landing site where he can expect appropriate assistance. Extended flight is not recommended.
CONTINUE FLIGHT
System Performance may be degraded but emergency conditions do not require an unscheduled landing.
CHECK MISSION FEASIBILITY
Ensure that the present Helicopter configuration, performance and availability of systems are suitable to perform the specific mission to be flown.
