Td32 Flashcards
Under what conditions will NG and TGT appear on the power pod display of the MFD?
NG: When NG exceeds 100%, NG1 and NG2 split more than 5%, or if Either engine is out
TGT: Either Engine TGT exceeds Continuous limit (793), TGT 1 and TGT 2 have difference greater than 75 degrees, or if Either engine is out.
The active cursor display can be switched between the onside MFDs using the _____________ icon?
Screen jump, displayed as a white arrowhead pointing toward the MFD that will become active.
Discuss the heading hold functions in FPS above and below 50 knots.
Below 50 Knots Above 50 Knots
Att. Hold Pitch Att. Hold/Airspeed
Att. Hold Roll Att. Hold
Hdg Hold Yaw HDG Hold/Turn coord
Why should the windshield wipers not be operated on a dry windshield? Why should the wipers be parked if they slow noticeably?
C-Do not operate on dry windshield to prevent possible damage to windshield surface.
C-Must be parked in order to avoid wiper motor failure
What conditions must exist simultaneously for settling with power to occur?
Vertical or near-vertical descent or atleast 300 FPM. Slow forward Airspeed (less than ETL) 20 to 100% power is being used with insufficient power remaining to arrest the descent.
In the event of a dual engine fire, if both Engine Fire T-handles are pulled and then the fire extinguisher activated, which engine compartment will the extinguisher discharge into? What is the WARNING associated with fire protection systems?
It will discharge into the compartment of the last lever pulled.
W-If Aircraft has no AC Power, only the reserve bottle can be discharged. Without AC Power, there are no fire fighting capabilites in the #2 compartment.
What is the recommended airspeed for Autorotation in a UH-60? Below what airspeed during an autorotation will the rate of descent increase while the glide distance decreases? What should be considered when discussing pitch attitudes of the helicopter during deceleration?
VNE: 120, 80 recommended
In autorotation, as airspeed increases above 70 - 80 KIAS, the rate of descent and glide distance increase significantly. As airspeed decreases below 64 KIAS, the rate of descent will increase and glide distance will decrease.
Pitch attitudes up to 25° at the point of touchdown normally result in an adequate deceleration and safe landing. Exceeding 25° pitch attitude there is a possibility of ground contact with the stabilator trailing edge.
Explain why the aircraft hangs slightly left wheel low at a hover. What component on the aircraft corrects this aerodynamic phenomena?
Due to the MMU compensating for translating tendency.
When the rotor disk is tilted left to counteract translating tendency, the fuselage follows the main rotor mast and hangs slightly low on the left side.
