26
Q

How does the P* disengage both attitude and altitude hold modes simultaneously?

A

By selecting the down (D) position on the force trim release (FTR) switch.

27
Q

What is represented by the shaded region of the height/velocity diagram?

A

The shaded region represents hazardous airspeed and wheel-height combinations from which a single engine landing would be extremely difficult without some degree of aircraft damage or crewmember injury.

28
Q

What should be done for all emergencies during which continued flight is in question due to loss of rotor RPM or reduction of available power?

A

Adjust collective to maintain Nr within limits
Jettison wing stores

29
Q

What conditions must be met to enable contingency power mode while Dual Engine in the 701D engine? How will I know when contingency power is enabled?

A

Dual Engine Contingency power is activated when TGT is within 11°c of the 879°c limiter and any (either) of the following conditions occur: Np <97% (drooping) or Np rate decreasing >5% per second.
A “CONT” message will be displayed in the FLT Page and HDU.

30
Q

While climbing to cross a mountain ridgeline at 10,000 feet/-20°, the crew applies 95% TQ, resulting in NR droop. Will advancing the POWER lever to LOCKOUT recover the NR to 101%?

A

B No. Based on the environment, the engines are limiting due to NG Aerodynamic Speed Limit (NG Mach). Advancing the POWER lever to LOCKOUT overrides TGT limiting, which is not a factor in this scenario. The only choice is to lower the collective to maintain NR.

31
Q

If the crew lost the NG signal from #1 engine, and the displayed NG% was 0%, would the engine continue to operate normally? What warnings would be present?

A

Yes
ENGINE 1 OUT

32
Q

If ENG 1 PWR FAIL was displayed on the EUFD, would the engine behave the same during an alternator failure?

A

No, ENG 1 PWR FAIL indicates that the 115 VAC/400 Hz backup power is detected as failed. The DECU/EDECU, in this instance, is only being powered by the alternator. Failure of the alternator in this scenario would result in DECU/EDECU failure and engine overspeed.

33
Q

The valid altitude range for the low altitude “bug” is?

A

0 to 20,000 feet.

34
Q

Based on an operating weight of 16,000 lbs, what is VNE at 5,000’ PA / +20°C? What is VNE at 5,000’ PA / -20°C? Explain?

A

5000’/+20°C = 190 KTAS, 5000’/-20°C = 172 KTAS.
When computing for -20°C, the mach limit line (dashed line) is reached prior to the GWT line (solid line). The mach limit line corresponds to compressibility. The GWT line corresponds to retreating blade stall.

35
Q

What does it mean when the stabilator icon is displayed in yellow? How can the crew determine the maximum airspeed during this condition?

A

The stabilator icon is displayed in yellow if the stabilator is detected as failed and the manual input is unable to alter the position. The limiting KTAS for the current stabilator position is incorporated into the aircraft VNE barber pole on the airspeed tape.

36
Q

When will a box (square corners) display around the airspeed in the HMD?

A

When the airspeed has reached VNE, the airspeed will be boxed on the HMD and FLT Page. The airspeed will display in red (FLT Page only).

37
Q

When adding a point while in NAV phase, what point type will be default once ADD is selected?

A

A waypoint (WP)

38
Q

What control selections will cause the TSD map to freeze?

A

BAM button, CAQ button, FRZ button, PAN button
(Bonus) Cursor selection of the map when a white X is displayed within the cursor icon.

39
Q

What is the purpose for partitioning the shared point database via the AMPS?

A

The shared point partition can be subdivided into 8 sections, allowing individual aircraft their unique partition within the shared database. This enables crews to conduct IDM operations without the risk of overwriting the points stored by another crew.

40
Q

How can the ground track be cleared if the TSD becomes too cluttered?

A

RTE>RTM>CLEAR TRACK
The crew may also elect to disable the GROUND TRACK show option via the TSD SHOW Page. The track will not be cleared. It will continue to be computed, just not displayed.

41
Q

How is a LAT/LONG entered for the user point location data via the KU?

A

(Once at the location field within the ADD or EDIT thread, select CLR)
Enter LAT/LONG as one continuous string with no decimal point in degrees, minutes, and hundredths of minutes (decimal minute). Northing will have 2 digits (for the degrees), Easting will have 3 digits (for the degrees) with leading zeros. N/S will always have a total of 6 digits and E/W will always have a total of 7 digits.

Example: N123456E1234567

42
Q

What are the 3 map orientations available to the individual crew member?

A

N-UP (north-up), TRK-UP (track-up), and HDG-UP (heading-up).

43
Q

What is a COMSET? What is the advantage of tuning a COMSET over individually-selected presets?

A

A COMSET is a grouping of up to six presets. COMSET tuning allows the crew to tune all of the presets associated with a COMSET with minimal button selections.

44
Q

May the crew send digital traffic via the IDM when a non-tactical preset frequency is tuned into the radio?

A

No, when a non-tactical preset is tuned, the IDM is disconnected from the radio.​​

*Non-tactical presets are voice-only presets commonly used for airports/ATC facilities.

45
Q

How many RADIO PTT (push-to-talk) switches are located in each crew station?

A

Two, 1 on the cyclic and 1 on the left side of the floor.

46
Q

How can the P enter the radio frequency 49.95 into the FM1 radio via the KU shortcut?

A

Type 49.95 into the KU, then select ENTER
Enter 1 for FM1 when prompted

47
Q

If 49.95 corresponds to the radio preset for A Co 1-14th, and the frequency/call sign are in the preset directory, will the call sign display on the EUFD if the frequency is entered manually via the KU shortcut? What if the frequency is entered via the MANUAL tuning option on the COM Page? How are these two manual tuning options different?

A

Entering 49.95 via the KU shortcut will only tune the radio to the entered frequency.

Entering 49.95 via the COM>TUNING>MANUAL page will enable a search of the preset directory to find a preset that matches the frequency. If a corresponding preset is found, a preset tune will occur, and the call sign will display on the EUFD.

48
Q

If no monitor status dot is present next to the Hanchey Tower frequency on the EUFD, can the crew still hear Hanchey Tower?

A

The monitor status dot indicates whether monitoring of respective radio is enabled/disabled.

The crew will be unable to monitor (hear) Hanchey Tower unless the corresponding radio is selected as the active transmitter (RTS set to Hanchey Tower on VHF or UHF).

49
Q

If the fuel BOOST button is selected ON, what will happen to the crossfeed valve?

A

When the boost pump has been actioned on the system automatically sets the fuel CROSSFEED to AFT.

50
Q

Assuming both the forward and aft fuel cells are full at takeoff, when will the aircraft begin automatic fuel leveling to the forward cell?

A

When the Fwd fuel level is <814 pounds.

51
Q

What caution message must be removed following rapid (warm or hot) refueling?

A

The crew must ensure that the REFUEL VALVE OPEN caution is not displayed after completing refueling.

52
Q

If ATC directs the crew to “IDENT” or “Squawk IDENT,” how is this accomplished by the crew?

A

• By pressing the IDENT button on either the PLT or CPG COMM Panel
• By selecting IDENT option on the INIT>XPNDR Page

53
Q

What happens when GUARD and XPNDR Buttons are pressed on the EMERGENCY Panel?

A

• The UHF radio is tuned to the UHF guard frequency (243.0 MHz).
• The transponder code is set to 7700 (Emergency).

54
Q

When responding to IIMC, the P* engages ATT HOLD, then interrupts force trim, attempting to set the force trim reference at a climb attitude with wings level. Within how many degrees from zero (wings level) must be P* trim the aircraft for the roll attitude reference to be automatically set to zero?

A

Attitude hold will re-reference to a new pitch or roll attitude when the force trim release button is no longer being asserted and the aircraft is within the attitude limits defined previously. If the roll < 3°, the roll reference will be automatically set to zero (wings level).

55
Q

How long should the pilot wait after IHADSS power-up before making any brightness adjustments to the HDU?

A

60 Seconds

56
Q

Assuming run-up took 30 minutes, is it recommended to perform a Scene Assisted Non-Uniformity Correction (SANUC) prior to takeoff?

A

If you have been operating the TADS/PNVS on the ground for 15 minutes or longer, perform a SANUC before takeoff.

57
Q

What is the maximum slew rate for the PNVS? What is the maximum slew rate for the TADS?

A

PNVS: 120°/second, TADS: 60°/second

58
Q

Following a PNVS failure, how long might it take to switch to TADS wide field of view (WFOV) FLIR?

A

• Switch over should occur in about 3 seconds after selecting the NVS select switch to TADS.
• TADS may be stowed at -180° at the time of PNVS failure; therefore, at 60° per second the TADS requires 3 seconds to orient 180° to the 12 o’clock position.

59
Q

If only the PLT was flying NVS and the CPG NVS Mode Switch was OFF, which crew member’s HMD presentation would be retained during a single MP failure?

A

The PLT’s HMD would be retained because they are the only crew member with an NVS Mode Switch in NORM or FIXED. “PLT FORMAT”

60
Q

How may the CPG view his/her own HMD video during the scenario in Question 5 without affecting the PLT? (PLT has NVS during single MP fail)

A

The CPG may view CPG HMD video on the MPD video page while the PLT views PLT HMD video in the HMD.
