Q

ABORT START

A

Legend:
ITT LIMIT warning CAS message

Cause/remarks:
-ITT fails to rise after twist grip rotated to IDLE.
-ITT rises more slowly than normal and N1 stabilizes lower than normal.
-ITT rapidly increasing through 870 deg C.
-Smoke, flames or fire from engine exhaust.

C: An excessive rise in ITT, ITT rapidly accelerating through 870 deg C, and/or low battery voltage on starter engagement, indicates an increased potential for a hot start and may require aborting the start to preclude exceeding ITT start limits.

C: Monitor engine start and if light off does not occur within 10 seconds after the twist grip is set to IDLE, abort the start.

  1. Twist grip-OFF.
  2. IGN switch-OFF.
  3. STARTER pushbutton-Continue to operate until ITT decreases to normal range.
  4. Fuel Panel switches-OFF/CLOSED.

C: Failure to utilize a GPU/battery cart on subsequent start attempts may result in a hot start.

W:
This emergency may result in engine failure.

*1. Collective-Lower to clear the stall.
*2. Airspeed-60-70 KIAS level flight.
*3. Land as soon as possible.

N:
If some usable power exists but level flight cannot be maintained, that power may be utilized to effect a landing or minimize rate of descent enroute to a suitable site for autorotation.

Q

Tell me about malfunction of the automatic fuel control system

A

If an automatic fuel control system malfunction arises in flight, the manual override system (MAN) can be used. The MAN overrides automatic control features associated with normal operation of the engine. The pilot will have to compensate for collective and pedal movements by rotating the twist grip.

35
Q

What two things may a tail rotor failure result in?

A

A complete loss of tail rotor control or in a jamming of the tail rotor pitch.

36
Q

Tell me about a complete loss of tail rotor control.

A

A tail rotor drive failure in a loss of yaw control with a consequent yaw to the right, which increases in rapidity at low forward airspeeds and high torque levels.

A tail rotor drive failure may be accompanied by noise, vibration, or oscillation in the tail section.

The vertical fin produces an anti-torque component which is a function of the forward speed and which assists in controlling the helicopter in low torque conditions.

The action to be taken depends upon whether the helicopter is in hover or in forward flight. In both cases, the landing should be made at the lowest possible power or even with the engine out.

While a tail rotor drive failure in hovering is immediately detected, the same failure may be less evident in the cruise.

37
Q

LOSS OF TAIL ROTOR THRUST IN A HOVER

A

Corrective action:

*1. Twist grip-IDLE.
*2. Cyclic-Eliminate drift.
*3. Collective-Increase to cushion the landing.

C: A slight rotation to the right can be expected on touchdown.

38
Q

LOSS OF TAIL ROTOR THRUST IN CRUISE FLIGHT

A

Cause/remarks:
Significant residual torque may exist if the twist grip is left in IDLE. The precise moment appropriate for moving the twist grip to OFF is at the discretion of the crew.

Corrective action:
*1.Collective-Lower to eliminate yaw.
*2. Airspeed-Adjust to reach a suitable landing site.

N: An increase in power necessitates an increase in speed to prevent the helicopter from excessive yaw.

*3. Autorotate.
*4. Twist grip- OFF prior to touchdown.

39
Q

Tell me about jamming of Tail Rotor Pitch.

A

This condition produces an inability to change tail rotor thrust with pedals.

Indications:

  1. Helicopter response - No yaw response when pedals are moved.
  2. Pedals - Locked.

C: IF the pedals cannot be moved with a moderate amount of force, do not apply excessive force since a more serious malfunction could result.

N: IF helicopter is in a trimmed flight condition when malfunction occurs, TQ and airspeed should be noted and helicopter flown to a suitable landing area. Combinations of torque and airspeed will yaw attitude and these should be adjusted to land the helicopter.

40
Q

Tell me about Fixed Pitch Hovering

A

Do not close engine throttle unless a severe right yaw occurs.

If fixed tail rotor pitch is encountered during hovering, landing can be accomplished with greater safety under power-controlled flight rather than closing engine throttle and entering autorotations.

41
Q

Tell me about Fixed Pitch in Flight.

A

Fixed tail rotor pitch is described in 2 general ways: stuck left (high power) or stuck right (low power). Although not specifically stated, a stuck neutral position occurs with the tail rotor providing proper thrust for a HIGE main rotor torque setting (I.e. 5 ft hover possible with no yaw). An aircraft with a left yaw in a 5 ft hover has excessive tail rotor thrust for this flight condition (stuck left-high power). An aircraft with a right yaw in a 5 ft hover has insufficient tail rotor thrust for this flight condition.

In all conditions, flying at minimum power required airspeed will yield a nose in the furthest left position possible. The nose will yaw further left in a stuck left condition. Increasing torque from here will cause the nose to move right until the torque on the main rotor is equivalent to the tail rotor thrust (anti-torque) where the aircraft will have no yaw and ball centered. Increasing collective behind this torque will cause the nose to yaw right of center. A controllability check at straight and level flight at altitude should be conducted to determine the degree and severity of the fixed pitch condition in level flight. Note torque required to eliminate yaw. In any case, execute a shallow approach to a sliding landing below 30 KGS or hover landing to the runway. If unable to slow below 30 KGS in case of a more severe stuck right-low power condition, the twist grip may be coordinated with collective to continue deceleration below 30 KGS and maintain nose alignment for touchdown. In case of a more severe stuck left-high power condition, an approach to a hover may not eliminate the left yaw.

42
Q

TAIL ROTOR CHIP

A

Legend:
T/R BOX CHIP CAS caution message

Cause/remarks:
Indications:
-TR BOX CHIP CAS caution message

Corrective action:

W:
-Be prepared for a complete loss of tail rotor thrust.
-High power settings may result in tail rotor gearbox failure.

*1. Reduce power.
*2. CHIP BURNER switch-Activate and release.

If the message does not extinguish or on the 4th TR BOX CHIP message:
*3. Land as soon as possible.

Note:
-The CHIP BURNER switch shall not be used to suppress a chip caution light when the aircraft is on the ground.
-The CHIP BURNER switch can be activated 3 times per flight.

43
Q

Hydraulic System Emergency blurb

A

The helicopter is equipped with two independent hydraulic systems for cyclic and collective pitch control.

Either system can deliver adequate power to control the helicopter.

The tail rotor pedals are boosted by system N1 only.

44
Q

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM NO.1 OR NO. 2 PRESSURE LOSS

A

Legend:
1 (2) SERVO caution

OR

1-2 SERVO caution

Cause/remarks:
Indications:
-1 SERVO or 2 SERVO caution.
-Hydraulic pressure of the affected system below 1200 psi.

Corrective action:
*1.Establish VMC.
*2.Avoid rapid movement of flight controls.

C:
-Pull-up manuevers and bank angles beyond 25 degrees may result in excessive flight control loads.

*3.Airspeed-Reduce smoothly below 90 KIAS.
*4.Affected SERVO switch-OFF.
*5.Land as soon as possible.

N:
-Tail rotor pedals are not boosted when the hydraulic system No. 1 fails.
-Rapid power changes with 1 SERVO off can result in an excessive yaw that may not be controlled with unboosted pedals.
-Unboosted pedals may be insufficient to counteract right yaw with strong right crosswinds.

45
Q

Main Rotor Servo Valve Jamming Blurb

A

The jamming of a servo valve of main rotor servo actuators can be detected only during the system check on ground before take-off when hydraulic systems are alternatively deactivated. Jamming of a servo valve on one of the main rotor servo actuators is detectable in flight by:

1.A force increase on the cyclic stick and collective lever.
2.A helicopter response which is not fully consistent with the control input during a maneuver.

Cockpit/Cabin Fire in Flight Blurb

A

An in-flight fire has no single set of detailed procedures that can address all the fire scenarios that are possible in flight. The most urgent action is to get the aircraft on ground as soon as possible with a reasonable degree of safety. Charging of EKB/tablets is a potential electrical source for a cockpit/cabin fire.
