When must the Mini-TOLD card be filled out? a. b. c. d.
a. Approaches when power required is within ten percent of power available
b. When OGE power is not available
c. At the discretion of the aircraft commander
d. If involved in NVG or low-level operations, should be filled out during pre-mission planning using worst-case data
During approaches, do not exceed _____ fpm descent rate when airspeed is less than 40 knots.
800 fpm
If additional MAJCOM or local restrictions are not in effect, what is the minimum altitude for NVG operations in a surveyed low-level area, or on an FAA/NACO Helicopter Route Chart if the EMI is greater than 20%?
Less than 20%?
50 AHO
150 AHO
NVG training will not be conducted with less than _____% EMI.
5% EMI
At what altitude interval will the pilot not flying make advisory calls during final approach to landing? (Day or night)?
Every 100’ above 300’ ALS
Every 50’ below 300’ ALS
Whenever horizontal rotor clearance is _____ feet or less, the scanner will inform the pilot of the clock position relative to the nose of the aircraft and estimated distance to the obstacle.
25’
Approaches at night are flown with slower rates of closure and descent than during day operations; the pilot will coordinate advisory calls and visual cues throughout the approach to reach approximately _____ with an approximate ground speed of _____.
200’
30 knots
For remote operations, when must the power check be completed?
Prior to commencing the low recon
For training, when landing to a surface area smaler than two rotor diameters, such as a pinnacle, power for _____ should be available.
Power for an OGE hover.
In what way does hovering over tall grass, slopes, or obstacles affect power requirements?
Power requirments increase
When must a second crewmember re-compute TOLD to confirm power requirements?
When the power margin is 10% or less
When unable to land directly into the wind, such as during an approach parallel to a ridgeline, which type of quartering headwind reduces overall power demand?
Left quartering HEADwind
When will the pilot not flying transfer advisory calls to the primary scanner by calling “DOOR”?
During the last 50-100’ of the approach
