Question 1

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

Land as Soon as Possible

Answer 1

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS
The term LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE is defined as landing at the nearest suitable landing area (e.g.,open field) without delay. (The primary consideration is to ensure the survival of occupants.)

Question 2

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE

Answer 2

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS
The term LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE is
defined as landing at a suitable landing area. (The
primary consideration is the urgency of the emergency.)

Question 3

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

Autorotate

Answer 3

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS
The term AUTOROTATE is defined as adjusting the
flight controls as necessary to establish an autorotational descent and landing.

Question 4

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED

Answer 4

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS
The term ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED
is defined as maneuvering the aircraft to an appropriate
airspeed that will allow for continued flight under
partial power conditions to a suitable recovery area.

Question 5

ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED -EP

Answer 5

ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED
1. Cyclic - Adjust as required.
2. Collective - Adjust as required to maintain %     RPM R 
    within normal operating range.
3. Establish appropriate airspeed.

Question 6

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUTDOWN

Answer 6

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

The term EMER ENG SHUTDOWN is defined as engine shutdown without delay.

Question 7

EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUTDOWN -EP

Answer 7

EMERGENCY ENGINE SHUTDOWN

1. ENG POWER CONT lever(s) - OFF.
2. ENG FUEL SYS selector(s) - OFF.
3. FUEL BOOST PUMP CONTROL switch(es) - OFF.

Question 8

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

LOCKOUT

Answer 8

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

The term LOCKOUT is defined as manual control of engine RPM while bypassing DEC/EDECU functions.

Question 9

LOCKOUT WARNING

Answer 9

Going to ECU/DEC/EDECU LOCKOUT to obtain additional power does not remove Maximum Fuel Flow or Ng limits. % RPM R will decrease below normal operating range if Maximum Fuel Flow or Ng limits are exceeded.

Question 10

LOCKOUT Caution

Answer 10

When engine is controlled with ENG POWER CONT lever in LOCKOUT, engine response is much faster and TGT limiting system is inoperative. Care must be taken not to exceed TGT limits and keeping % RPM R and % RPM 1 and 2 in operating range.

Question 11

LOCKOUT -EP

Answer 11

LOCKOUT
ENG POWER CONT lever - Pull down and advance
full forward while maintaining downward pressure, then
adjust to set % RPM R as required.

Question 12

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

Emergency APU Start

Answer 12

DEFINITION OF EMERGENCY TERMS

The term EMER APU START is defined as APU start to accomplish an emergency procedure.

Question 13

SINGLE-ENGINE FAILURE -EP

Answer 13

SINGLE-ENGINE FAILURE

1. ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
2. External cargo/stores - Jettison (if required).If continued flight is not possible:
3. LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.If continued flight is possible:
4. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.

Question 14

SINGLE/DUAL-ENGINE FAILURE.

WARNING

Answer 14

SINGLE/DUAL-ENGINE FAILURE.
WARNING
Do not respond to ENG OUT warning and audio until checking TGT TEMP, Ng SPEED, and % RPM 1 and 2.

Question 15

DUAL-ENGINE FAILURE - EP

Answer 15

DUAL-ENGINE FAILURE - EP

1. AUTOROTATE

Question 16

AUTOROTATE Deceleration Height Above Touchdown

Answer 16

AUTOROTATE Deceleration Height Above Touchdown

At 50 to 75 feet AGL, use aft cyclic to decelerate. T

Question 17

ECU/DEC/EDECU LOW SIDE FAILURE.

Answer 17

ECU/DEC/EDECU LOW SIDE FAILURE.
1. ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.

If partial powered flight cannot be maintained:

2. ENG POWER CONT lever (low % TRQ/
   TGT TEMP engine) - LOCKOUT. Maintain % TRQ
   approximately 10% below other engine.
3. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.

Question 18

ECU/DEC/EDECU HIGH SIDE FAILURE.

Answer 18

ECU/DEC/EDECU HIGH SIDE FAILURE.
If an engine control unit fails to the high side:

1. ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
2. ENG POWER CONT lever (high % TRQ/ TGT TEMP engine) - Retard. Maintain % TRQ approximately 10% below other engine.
3. LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.

If the affected engine does not respond to ENG
POWER CONT lever movement in the range between
FLY and IDLE, the HMU may be malfunctioning internally.

If this occurs:

4. Perform EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected engine).
5. Refer to single-engine failure emergency procedure.

Question 19

% RPM INCREASING/DECREASING (OSCILLATION).

Answer 19

% RPM INCREASING/DECREASING (OSCILLATION).

1. ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.
All other Steps are not underlined

Question 20

ENGINE COMPRESSOR STALL.

Answer 20

ENGINE COMPRESSOR STALL.

1. ESTABLISH SINGLE-ENGINE AIRSPEED.

If condition persists:

2. ENG POWER CONT lever (affected engine) - Retard (TGT TEMP should decrease).
3. ENG POWER CONT lever (affected engine) - FLY.

If stall condition recurs:

4. EMER ENG SHUTDOWN (affected engine).
5. Refer to single-engine failure emergency procedure.
