TD 35 Flashcards
What indications cause the illumination of the CHECK EICAS caution?
Indicates engine oil temperature, engine oil pressure, main transmission oil temperature, and main transmission oil pressure are not within theirnormal range.
What is a FMS message alert? How would you check the FMS status alert “Check IVHMS”?
A yellow MSG will appear on the MFD prompting pilot to look at FMS when requiring pilot attention. It will flash for 5 seconds then remain on until cleared.
To Check on IVHMS = Main (T1), EXCD (R2), WARNING/CAUTION/ADVISORY HISTORY (L4)
During startup, you experience an ENG 1 OIL BYPASS. What does this indicate and is this a normal indication?
It is normal for the ENG OIL BYPASS caution to appear when starting an engine with oil temperatures below normal because of high oil viscosity and the accumulation of oil filter contaminants. When the engine oil temperature reaches about 38°C (100°F) during warm-up, the caution should disappear
During shutdown, the droops fail to return to the static position during rotor coast down. What are your actions? Additionally, how low will the blade/blades droop in feet from the ground?
Shut down an engine to lower NR. If droop stops still do not go in, Increase to 75% NR. Repeat shutdown, slightly displacing cyclic in an attempt to dislodge jammed droop stop. If droop stops still do not go in, clear the rotor disc and proceed with normal shutdown with cyclic neutral.
When the droop stops do not return to the static position, the main rotor blades may droop to within 4 feet of the ground during shutdown.
When does the fuel indication on the Power Pod turn yellow? When does the FUEL 1 or FUEL 2 LOW caution Illuminate?
Turns yellow when either fuel tank level falls below 200 lbs.
Cautions illuminate when either fuel tank level decreases below 172 lbs
You are planning a VFR flight to a Class D airport. Predominant weather at your ETA is 1SM visibility and 500 ft. ceilings. Assuming no local restrictions, can you legally file VFR to this airfield?
Yes, Aviators may file flight plans to a destination within Class B, C, D, and E surface area airspace when weather conditions are forecast to be equal to or greater than known special visual flight rules (SVFR) minima for that airspace at ETA through one hour after ETA
List the additional improvements on the UH-60M that have been incorporated for transient droop response. Where are these items located?
Torque Signal from the engine.
Collective position transducer located on the MMU.
Rotor speed (NR) sensor mounted on the left accessory module.
As an instrument rated pilot flying an instrument certified aircraft, when are you NOT required to file an IFR flight plan?
Flight is primarily for VFR training. (b) Time will not permit mission completion under IFR. (c) Mission can only be accomplished under VFR. (d) Excessive air traffic control (ATC) departure, en route, or terminal area delays are encountered. (e) Hazardous weather conditions must be avoided. (f) Aircraft is being flown single pilot. 95-1
