Question 9

Emergency Equipment and Emergency Exits

Answer 9

• Green strip lights surrounding the doors used as emergency exits
• Green light at the corners of the emergency exit windows
• Exit lights near the door openings / jettison handles

Question 10

WARNING LIGHT INDICATIONS - XMSN OIL PRESS

Answer 10

1. Power - Reduce
2. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE

If both indications are below 1.0 Bar:

3. LAND IMMEDIATELY

Question 11

SINGLE ENGINE FAILURE - IGE HOVER

Answer 11

1. Collective Lever - Adjust to OEI Limits or below
2. Landing Attitude - Establish
3. Collective Lever - Raise as necessary to stop descent and cushion landing

After landing:
4. Affected Engine - Identify
5. Single Engine Emergency Shutdown - Perform

Question 12

SINGLE ENGINE FAILURE - FLIGHT

Answer 12

1. OEI Flight Condition - Establish
2. Rotor Speed - Trim to maximum
3. Affected Engine - Identify
4. Single Engine Emergency Shutdown - Perform
5. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE

Question 13

Transverse Flow Effect

Definition

Answer 13

Differences in lift between the fore and aft portions of the rotor disk. Downward flow at the aft causes a reduced AOA, resulting in less lift. The forward half produces an increased AOA and more lift because airflow is more horizontal.

Question 14

Dissymmetry of Lift

Answer 14

Unequal lift across the rotor disk resulting from the difference in the velocity of air over the advancing blade half and the retreating blade half.
