Helicopter…………………Land as soon as possible
Monitor gage
FYI - AVOID AGGRESSIVE COLLECTIVE MOVEMENTS
ENG OIL PRESSURE

Helicopter……………………….Land as soon as possible
(non-memory)
If engine oil pressure within limits but fluctuates:
Engine oil pressure and temperature gage………Monitor gage
Helicopter……………………….Land as soon as practical
ENG OIL TEMPERATURE
(NOT A RED PAGE)
Engine oil pressure and temperature gage………Monitor gage
BLOWER A/C switch……………………OFF
Helicopter……………………………………..Land as soon as practical
FYI - Engine damage may occur if temp above 107C for more than 10 minutes or exceeds 120C for any length of time - LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
FREE-WHEEL UNIT FAILURE
Helicopter…………………………Establish autorotation
Collective………………………….Maintain 90% to 107% Nr
Throttle……………………………..Idle
(non-memory)
If time and altitude permit:
Throttle…………………………Open
If Nr and N2 rise together:
Limited powered flight can be possible
Helicopter…………………Land as soon as possible
If unable to maintain powered flight
Helicopter…………………Establish autorotation
Follow engine failure procedure
FYI - Identified by N2 greater than Nr, dropping TQ, N1 around 81%, and TOT lower than normal, and Nr is responding to collective inputs
ENGINE COMPRESSOR STALL
Collective…………………………..Reduce
ENG ANTI-ICE switch……….ON
HEAT VENT switch…………..ON
BLOWER A/C switch…………OFF
If problem continues:
Helicopter………………………Land as soon as possible
Be prepared for engine failure at any time
(non-memory)
If problem stops:
Helicopter………………………Monitor TOT and N1
Land as soon as practical
FYI - random power fluctuations, rumbling or popping, vibrations, dropping Nr, rising TOT, fluctuating N1. Likely to occur on an overshoot with minimal fwd airspeed.
ENGINE RESTART (In-flight)
Altimeter………………………..Check for sufficient altitude
Collective………………………Maintain 90% to 107% Nr
Helicopter………………………Reduce airspeed to 52-69 KIAS
Throttle…………………………..Close
ENG ANTI-ICE switch……OFF
PITOT HEAT switch……….OFF
GEN switch…………………….OFF
Engine…………………………….Proceed with normal start
If engine idles normally:
Throttle………………………Open slowly to FULL
TOT…………………………….Monitor
Helicopter………………….Land as soon as possible
If no relight:
FUEL VALVE switch….OFF
BAT switch…………………OFF
Helicopter………………….Complete autorotation landing
EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN
Throttle………………………Close and hold until N1 is 0
FUEL VALVE switch….OFF
BAT switch…………………OFF
Rotor brake………………..Engage
Allow rotors to stop
Helicopter…………………..Open or jettison doors and egress
DITCHING (Power-OFF)
Helicopter……………………..Establish autorotation
Collective………………………Maintain 90% to 107% Nr
BLOWER A/C switch…….OFF
Doors……………………………..Open and Locked
Cyclic……………………………..Reduce groundspeed to 0 before touchdown
Maintain level attitude
Collective………………………Maintain rate of descent as
rotorcraft settles into the water
Helicopter……………………..Allow rotors to stop and egress
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM HARDOVER
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM switch……..OFF
Helicopter……………………………………..Land as soon as possible
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FAILURE
(NOT A RED PAGE)
Helicopter……………………………………Reduce AS to 61-69 KIAS
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM switch…….Confirm ON
HYD BOOST CB…………………………OUT
If hydraulic pressure is not regained:
HYD BOOST CB……………………..IN
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM switch…OFF
Helicopter…………………………………Land as soon as practical
Minimize flight control
movements

Landing……………………………………..A run-on landing at 10-15
KIAS is recommended
MAX 10kt Groundspeed
with SKIS
PEDALS LOCKED AT HOVER (LEFT)
Cyclic……………………………..Eliminate drift
Collective……………………….Lower
