Standardization Flashcards
What are the three components of fuel managment?
Initiate-compute-monitor
Maximum airspeed in the corridor?
Maximum airspeed within the corridors and transitional routes is 120 knots unless otherwise noted.
Appendix M, USAACE 95-2
What are the lateral limits of the corridor?
500 meters on each side of the respective centerline unless otherwise noted.
Appendix M, USAACE 95-2
Required corridor calls?
For outbound/departures from basefields, aircrews are not required make call on air-to-air announcing entering a corridor unless necessary to promote safe operations.
What is the procedure
for departing the parking pad?
When departing parking pads, bring aircraft to a hover over the pad, then hover out until well clear.
What are the traffic pattern altitudes for Cairns AAF?
Rotary wing aircraft - 1,000 feet MSL downwind, 700 feet MSL base.
What are the hover restrictions within the confines of the ramp and parking areas?
Turns?
All hovering turns within the confines of the ramp and parking areas will be pedal turns executed at zero groundspeed.
What are the takeoff directions from the following pads?
* Pad A
* Pad B
* Pad C
* Pad D1
* Pad D2
* Pad E
- Pad A - Depart 310º, land 130º
- Pad B - Depart 360º, land 180º
- Pad C - Depart 180º/060º/240º/060º clockwise to 240º, land 360º
- Pad D1- Depart 330º, land 150ºDepart 360º VFR, land 180º
- Pad D2 - Depart 360º VFR, land 180º
- Pad E - Fly heading 060º, clearing the localizer antenna by 250 feet, until crossing HWY 84. Right
Minimum weather required to depart Cairns AAF to stagefield.
- MEF 700-1 for training area.
- 700-1 observed at training area.
- Cairns observed 1000-3
Dynamic Rollover
Physical Factors
- Main rotor thrust
- Tail rotor thrust
- AC CG/low fuel
- Surface area
- Crosswind
Dynamic Rollover
Human Factors
- Slow inputs
- Wrong inputs
- Inattention
- Inexperience
- Loss of visual references
Low Fuel 1 and or 2
Respective supply tank below 23 kg (51 pds)
23 X 2.205 = 51 lbs
- Fuel quantity indication - check
- Both XFER pump sw (FWD+AFT) - Check ON
- Both XFER circuit breakers (FWD+AFT) Check IN
If FUEL LOW warning lights remain on: - AC - OFF
- BLD HTG reheostate - OFF
Both FUEL LOW warning lights remain ON
Land within 10 minutes
If one FUEL LOW warning light remains on:
Expect single engine failure
How much flight time is remaining with only supply tanks?
30 minutes
(222 lbs)
When does the low fuel light come on?
53 lbs
What is single engine
airspeed based on?
2.5 minute limit at cruise flight
(landing altitude will be lower so SE IAS will most likely be lower.
What is the CAUTION associated with abort start procedures?
