Section 1-Limitations

Question 0

Airspeed limitations 3000lbs gross weight and below.

Answer 0

VNE 150MPH sea level to 3000 feet density altitude. Decrease VNE 4MPH per 1000 feet above 3000 feet density altitude.

Question 1

What is the airspeed limitation for 85 to 100% torque takeoff range

Answer 1

Vne 92 MPH

Question 2

Airspeed limitations above 3000lbs gross weight

Answer 2

VNE 140 mph sea level to 3000 feet density altitude. Decrease VNE 8.0 mph per 1000 feet above 3000 feet density altitude

Question 3

Altitude limitations:

What is the maximum pressure altitude for gross weight of 3000 lbs and below

Answer 3

20,000 feet

Question 4

Decay of bleed air below normal operating pressures

Answer 4

13,500 feet density altitude

Question 5

What is the rotor limitations-power on

Max an min

Answer 5

Max 100% for all gross weights
Minimum-97% for gross weights above 3000lbs
Transient rotor rpm droop down to 95% is permitted and should not exceed 5 sec
Min-95% for gross weigts of 3000lbs
50-60%- accelerate through this range as rapidly as possible with cyclic in neutral

Question 6

Power off rotor limitations

Maximum and minimum

Answer 6

Maximum 107% rotor RPM

Minimum 90% rotor RPM
