- Entering the maneuver at an improper altitude or airspeed.2. Entering the maneuver without a level attitude (or not in coordinated flight).3. Entering the maneuver and not correcting from the initial decelerationto a steady state attitude (which allows excessive airspeed loss in the descent).4. Improper transition into the descent on entry.5. Improper use of antitorque on entry.6. Failure to establish the appropriate crosswind correction, allowing the aircraftto drift.7. Failure to maintain coordinated flight through the turn.8. Failure to maintain rotor rpm within the POH recommended range.9. Excessive yaw when increasing collective to slow rate of descent duringpower recovery autorotations.10. During power recovery autorotations, a delay in reapplying power.11. Initial collective pull either too high or too low.12. Improper flare (too much or not enough).13. Flaring too low or too high (AGL).14. Failure to maintain heading when reapplying power.15. Not landing with a level attitude.16. Landing with aircraft not aligned with the direction of travel.17. Insufficient collective cushioning during touchdown.18. Abrupt control inputs on touchdown.

read directly off your altimeter
Indicated Altitude
altimeter set to 29.92
Pressure Altitude
pressure altitude corrected for non-standard temperature
Density Altitude
vertical distance of your aircraft above sea level
True Altitude
Constantly changing, absolute altitude is the distance measurement of your airplane above the ground
Absolute Altitude
Read off the gauge
Indicated Airspeed
Relative to the air you’re flying through, for every thousand feet above sea level, true airspeed is about 2% higher than indicated airspeed
True Airspeed
It’s true airspeed corrected for wind.
Ground Speed
indicated airspeed corrected for instrument and positional errors
Calibrated Airspeed

Land at this airport.Lower landing gear (if equipped) and land on runway. If airport inadequate, raise landing gear (if equipped) while flying over runway and flash landing lights.Continue to circle airport between 1,000-2,000 feetuntil fighter signals to follow to alternate airport.
Intercepting Aircraft: Circles airport, lowers landing gear,
Fighter understands intercepted aircraft’s intentions. If cannot comply, switch on and off all available lights at regular intervals.If in distress, switch on and off all available lights at irregular intervals.
