Q

What is the fault and remedy related to a “trans temp” warning light.

A

Main transmission is at or above red line 110*C. Reducing power will help alleviate the condition. Check transmission oil pressure. Land as soon as possible.

15
Q

What is the rotor RPM range required to maintain rotor ROM during an engine failure

A

90%-107%

16
Q

What is the desired airspeed range for autorotation

A

58-69MPH

17
Q

What is the max airspeed for steady autorotation

A

115 mph

18
Q

What could result during autorotations performed above 115MPH

A

Could result in high rates of descent and low rotor speed.

19
Q

What are the steps to respond to a complete loss of tail rotor thrust

A

Roll throttle flight idle enter auto rotation and maintian minimum airspeed to 58MPH during descent

20
Q

What to do in the event of a fuel control or governor failure

A

Control power with throttle if engine over speeds
Maintain RPM with collective pitch If engine under speeds
Establish autorotative glide if power is very low or if engine must be shut down

21
Q

Steps to take as a result of hydraulic system failure

A

Reduce airspeed to 70-80MPH IAS
Check hydraulic switch is on
Hyd boost circuit breaker-out if power not restored “in”
Land as soon as practical and investigate
Run-on landing 12-17MPH recommended

22
Q

Electrical power failure

A

Cycle generator switch-if power not restored “off”

All electrical equipment “off”, on as needed

Reduce altitude below 6000feet(fuel boost pumps)

23
Q

Helicopter fuel system failure-both boost pumps

A

Descend below 6000 feet land as soon as practical. Unusable fuel 10 gallons

24
Q

Engine fire during flight

A

Throttle-closed
Immediately enter autorotation
Fuel valve-OFF
battery switch-off
generator switch-off
Execute autorotational descent and landing
Do not restart until maintenance has been performed

25
Q

Engine air start

A

-when believed to be a mechanical problem do not attempt restart
Maintain autorotation glide
Rotor rpm 90-107
Airspeed 58-69MPH
Generator-off
Normal start
Do not attempt above 12,000feet as TOT rises to fast to control

26
Q

Engine fire during starting or shutdown

A
Starter-continue to motor the engine
Throttle-full closed
Fuel valve switch-OFF
IGN ENG circuit breaker-out
Complete shutdown
