Trakkabeam A800 Limitations
Not to be used IFR
Must be off <50ft or in cloud
Max 140kts
Must be in STOW for Take Off and Landing
External PA Limitations
When not in use must be on INT
When in YELP/WAIL:
1min on 3mins off
Procedure for Manual Landing to the Rest Position
- Terminate to OGE approx 150ft offset and aft
- Select HOV (using cyclic trim push)
- Select RHT
Procedure for Landing to the rest position using IAS and RHT
- MARK position
- 2NM final approach segment created by PM
- > 1nm from target be 300ft RHT at 50kts GS
- At 1nm descend to operating height (e.g 60ft)
- Deselect airspeed as descent is initiated
- Maintain 30kts GS until within 0.1 NM of target
- Engage HOV using cyclic beep trim switch
Procedure for Landing to the rest position using FD MOT
- Ensure that Perf Init has been done
- Mark MOT (PM selects it)
- VRHT, VIAS & LNAV annunciates - MOT Captured
- Set RHT reference to operating height
- Call out mode engagements
When do you conduct the Preflight Mission Checklist?
Prior to ground taxi, hover taxi or takeoff.
(Just after RPM Switch or Main HYD check if applicable)
(FCOM)
When do you complete the Cabin Security Checklist?
Prior to in-flight operations with the cabin doors open
After BEFORE LANDING CHECKLIST.
After BEFORE TAKE-OFF CHECKLIST.
(FCOM)
When do you carry out the ON-SCENE CHECKLIST?
After landing to the Rest Position and the door has been opened.
(OMF)
When do you carry out the AFTER HOIST CHECKLIST?
Just prior to taking-off from the rest position.

What AEO Power demand permits a limited 2.5min OEI hover with minimal height loss?
70-75%
What AEO Power demand results in an unrestricted OEI hover?
<70%
What are the AEO Power demand bands for OEI Intentions?
> 80% - Immediate fly-away/ditch
76-80% - limited 2.5 min hover with some height loss/NR droop
70-75% - limited 2.5 min hover minimal height loss/NR droop
<70% - Unrestricted OEI hover
What are your OEI intentions >80%?

- Manual
- Utilising IAS and RHT
- Utilising M-O-T
