Q

How do you engage cable angle hover?

A

It is engaged by pressing cable angle push fun on so no cable angle control panel

30
Q

How do you disengage cable angle hover?

A

Automatically disengaged when dome is reeled up through 15 to 39 feet (27 +/- 12) water depth or when pilot pushes cable angle again

31
Q

What conditions must be met prior to engaging cable angle hover mode?

A

+/-5 KGS,

altitude hold within 10 feet of selected altitude,

and dome wet indication

32
Q

What do the ALFS cable angle sensor is measure?

A

It measures the angular displacement of the cable from the center of the funnel relative to the aircraft orientation

While the dome is submerged, it maintains perpendicular angle between cable and water which is the dead center of the cable angle display

33
Q

What does the cable angle display reference?

A

It references the vertical angle relative to the water surface or verticality. To view, hit the ACST bezel key

  • each tick equals 2°
  • The inner ring equals 4.25°
  • The outer ring equals 8.5°
34
Q

CABLE ANGLE AT LIMIT alert

A

Potential cable damage, cable has exceeded 7.5°

35
Q

Cable angle warning

A

If the 8.5 outer ring is reached while the dome is leaving the water, there is a significantly increased risk of the dome striking the aircraft including the aircraft rotor which may result in air crewman injury and/or death

36
Q

Cable angle caution

A

If the 4.25 inner ring is exceeded as the dome is leaving the water during raise operations, there is an increased risk of the sonar dome striking the aircraft which may result in equipment damage

37
Q

At what altitude shell dipping sooner operations be at?

A

70’AGL

38
Q

Dipping sonar altitude caution

A

Deviation of aircraft hover altitude from 70 feet while transducer assembly is entering or exiting the water may result in damage to the dipping sooner equipment due to electro static discharge

39
Q

Towing transducer limitations

A

8 KGS With array folded

4 KGS With array unfolded

40
Q

Towing transducer caution

A

Exceeding 8 KGS with array folded or 4 KGS with the array unfolded may cause transducer assembly cable separation

41
Q

What is the definition of towing?

A

Towing is defined as the cable contacting the funnel. Aircraft ground speed may be greater than 8KGS folded or 4KGS unfolded provided the cable is not in contact with the funnel

42
Q

Air speed operating limitations with the dome

A

Dome at or above trail, cable extended 10 feet, dome at approximately 6 feet below aircraft is limited to 70 KIAS/45° angle of bank

Dome below trail is limited to 70 KIAS/15° angle of bank

43
Q

How do you optimize cable angle hover?

A

-Establish a stable, non-drifting hover, as per Cicely into the wind as possible before lowering dome

44
Q

When shall cable angle hover mode be engaged?

A

Cable angle hover mode shall be engaged by the pilot as soon as the dome submerged advisory is displayed on the FD.

Immediate engagement allows the a FCC to keep the cable somewhat center during the cable pay out

45
Q

How long does it take the AFCS to calculate velocity biases?

A

AFCS takes the first 25 seconds to calculate lat and long velocity biases.

After this. The most effective way is by using the four way trim switch which applies 3KGS bias in each direction.

When the cyclic trim release button is pressed, it resets biases, reverts to the original velocity bias.

46
Q

What does the dome automatically do in auto mode when finished with dissent?

A

It automatically unfolds

47
Q

If after 25 seconds, the aircraft is still showing Erratic cable angle, consider

A

Folding the staves prior to taking further action

48
Q

Sonar cable pay out caution

A

Sonar cable pay out with cable angle hover mowed once the dome submerged advisory is displayed, may result in aircraft drift and damage to the cable insulating jacket

49
Q

If the cable is hard against the funnel and AFCS it’s not correcting, pilot respond as follows:

A
  1. Use cyclic trim to command aircraft
  2. Fly against the trim
  3. Using term release button caution re-position the aircraft
  4. Fly against longitudinal trim

**Once cable angle is re-entered, re-engage cable angle hold
