5
Q

Flight Review Conditions

A

Flight reviews are only valid for SPECIFIC AIRCRAFT review was conducted in.
- R-22 review is NOT valid for R-44 and vice versa

6
Q

Mast Bumping

A

When the rotor system exceeds the flapping limits, causing the rotor hub to contact the mast, resulting in mast damage or separation of the main rotor system.

Causes
- Low G

7
Q

Low G

A

When the rotor disk is no longer supporting the weight of the helicopter during flight.

  • Abrupt fore cyclic, esp from S&L or a climb
    • Turbulence induced inputs

Symptoms

  • Weightlessness
  • Uncontrolled roll to the right

Correction

  • Immediate, smooth aft cyclic to reload rotors
  • Once stable, roll to level attitude
