V. Takeoffs, Landing, and Go Arounds
B. Normal/Crosswind Descent and Approach

A
  • Normal approach angle 10 degrees
  • 60 knots through the descent
  • Collective controls angle of the approach
  • Cyclic controls the rate of closure
  • Brisk walking pace
  • 25-40 feet, lose of ETL, increase in collective

Q

V. Takeoffs, Landing, and Go Arounds
C. Max Performance Takeoff and Climb

A
  • Check the MP limit chart
  • Clear the aircraft
  • Pre-takeoff checks
  • Maintain 40 knot attitude (approx. the same attitude as when the helicopter is light on the skids)
  • Increase collective to max power
  • At 50 feet of altitude, lower nose to 60 knots
  • As helicopter passes 55 knots, lower collective power

Q

Traffic Pattern

A

Upwind- Normal climb at 60 knots
Crosswind- Level off 500 ft AGL, begin acceleration to 75 knots
Downwind- 75-90 knots, 500 ft AGL, start decel to 60 knots
Base- Descend to 300 ft AGL, slow to 60 knots
Final- 60 knots, zip line down, not more than 300 fpm below 30 knots
