TD 82 Flashcards
Discuss the procedure required to perform under-flight of wires
Minimum ground to wire clearance of hover height plus 25 feet
Ground speed: Brisk Walk
Ensure lateral clearance from guy wires and poles
When performing VMC takeoff, after assessing take off area, wind, and obstacles, P* will select and announce type of take off. What are they?
Normal
Level Acceleration
Constant Angle
Vertical
When would a level acceleration takeoff be used?
When power to hover is max power available
The decision to go around can be made at any time but in limited power situations should be determined before _____________________.
Descending below barriers or ETL
An approach to the forward one third of the usable landing area will reduce the ____________________.
Approach angle/minimal power requirements
What actions are performed on contact with the enemy?
Establish flight profile
Report target azimuth, range
Maintain contact, recommend/execute COA
What are the elements when transmitting a SPOT report?
Size
Activity
Location
Unit
Time
Equipment
SPOT report scenario
S - 3 technicals
A - Stationary
L - FV 1124 7077, gas station.
U - Unkown
T - 1815
E - Heavy machine guns
Define low level flight:
Operating with skids or wheels between 80 and 200 feet AHO at an airspeed commensurate with operational requirements/aircrew limits.
Define contour flight
Relatively constant airspeeds. Varying altitudes dictated by terrain.
Define nap of the earth flight
Conducted at varying airspeeds as close to the earths surface as vegetation/obstacles permit
Two main types of aerial checkpoints:
Air Control Point
- Air reference measure
- Easily identifiable on terrain/NAVAID
- Nav, commo, command/control
Contact Point
- position where mission leader makes radio contact with an air control agency
