TD82 Flashcards
Procedure required to perform under flight of wires
- Must be minimum ground to wire clearance of hover height + 25 ft
- Groundspeed less than or equal to a brisk wok
- Ensure lateral clearance from guy, wires and poles
When should a level acceleration type takeoff be selected?
Power required to hover is the max available
Name the different types of VMC takeoff
Normal level acceleration constant angle vertical
The decision to go around may be made at any time, but in limited power situations should be determined before
Descending below the barriers or decelerating below ETL
Approach to the forward 1/3 of the usable landing area will reduce the
Approach angle
What actions are performed upon contact with the enemy?
- establish appropriate flight profile and report upon encountering the objective, Target or threat
Target - Brief description of the Target
Azimuth - Either magnetic or clock direction from the observation aircraft
Range - Distance from observing aircraft in meters
- maintain, contact and develop situation
- recommend or execute a course of action
What are the elements when transmitting a spot report
Size activity, location, Unit time equipment
What is the definition of low-level flight
Flight at constant altitude and AirSpeed dictated by threat avoidance
What is the definition of contour flight?
Flight at low altitude conforming to the Earth’s contours
Constant speed varying altitude
What is the definition of nap of the Earth flight?
Flight at varying air speeds as close to the Earth’s surface as vegetation and obstacles permit
the two main types of aerial checkpoints are?
Air reference point - Air reference measure which is an easily identifiable point on the terrain or in electronic navid used for navigation, mission, command and communication. Generally at each point where route makes it definite change.
Communications point - Air reference measure requiring serial leaders to report either to the aviation mission Commander or terminal control facility
