If transmission oil pressure is not steady during steady state forward flight or in a level hover, or if oil pressure is steady but under _____, make an entry on the appropriate maintenance form.
45 psi
Sudden transmission pressure drop (more than _____) without fluctuation requires and entry on the appropriate maintenance form.
10 psi
A demand for maximum power from engines with different __1__ will cause a torque split when the __2__ reaches __3__.
