POH (Guimbal Cabri G2) Flashcards

Question

**When the MASTER is switched on, the EPM carries out a self-test and displays a test page** **Only one flight should be performed after one of following parameters are displayed “Failed”, what are the restrictions** * Battery charge

Answer 1

* Minimize electrical loads

Answer 2

* Keep cabin heat closed

Answer 3

* Control carb. heat manually Use carb. heat below 80% MLI

Answer 4

* LAND IMMEDIATELY * LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE * Emergency conditions are urgent and require landing at the nearest landing site at which a safe landing can be made. * CONTINUE FLIGHT * Continue flight as planned. Repair at the destination according to maintenance manual. ## Footnote **NOTE: The emergency procedures describe the actions the pilot must take, relative to the various possible failures that can occur. However, depending on the many variable external environments, such as the type of terrain flown over, the pilot may have to adapt to the situation according to his experience**

Answer 5

* **Main engine drive failure** * Can be detected by * Yaw acceleration, nose to the right, * Engine noise level decreases, * Tachometer needles desynchronization on the EPM (engine decreases) * OIL P warning on the EPM and OIL P red light coming ON. * Plasma beeper, * Rotor speed decreasing and “low NR” horn. * **Engine fire** * EPM warning caption \*RED FIRE Box\* * **Tail rotor failure** * Charactarised by a strong yaw to the left

Answer 6

* Yaw acceleration, nose to the right, * Engine noise level decreases, * Tachometer needles desynchronization on the EPM (engine decreases) * OIL P warning on the EPM and OIL P red light coming ON. * Plasma beeper, * Rotor speed decreasing and “low NR” horn. * **Caution :** A slow decay in engine power, caused by carburetor icing or air filter clogging, is compensated by the governor and can be overlooked by the pilot. The MLI indication will not change while in PWR mode, but will rapidly shift to FLO mode, then increase to 100%.

Answer 7

* Yaw acceleration, nose to the right, * Engine noise level increases, * Tachometer needles desynchronization on the EPM (engine increases) Eventual engine overspeed only if the governor is OFF * Rotor speed decreasing and “low NR” horn. In case of a primary transmission failure, apply following power failure actions. Roll off the twist grip as soon as possible.

Answer 8

1. Use left pedal input to counter yawing to the right, 2. Cushion landing by raising collective, until high pitch stop if necessary, 3. Once landed, lower the collective.

Answer 9

1. Use left pedal input to counter yawing to the right, 2. Use aft cyclic to level the helicopter, 3. Before having reached 30 kt IAS, **do not lower the collective**, 4. **If IAS is above 30 kt IAS**, slightly pitch up while slightly lowering the collective, if needed, to prevent climbing, 5. When approaching the ground, raise the collective to cushion contact, 6. Use pedals to minimize ground drift, 7. Once stopped, lower the collective.

Answer 10

1. Lower the collective immediately and maintain full down, 2. Use pedals to control yaw, 3. Maintain **IAS between 30 and 50 kt IAS (50 kt IAS recommended)**, 4. Select landing area and manoeuvre to land into the wind, 5. Adjust collective to **centre NR in green arc**, 6. When the landing is ensured, consider engine restarting if enough time is available. Refer to page 3-5. 7. At about 60 feet AGL, apply aft cyclic to raise the helicopter nose smoothly and continuously. **Below 50kt IAS**, this manoeuvre **will not stop sink rate**. 8. As ground closes-on, apply forward cyclic to level the helicopter while raising the collective to stop sink rate. 9. Use pedals to minimize ground drift, 10. Once stopped, lower the collective. * *Note** : Average manoeuvre requires about 200 to 300 m (650 to 1000 feet) free of high obstacle.
