F: Fly the aircraft
Fly the Aircraft means
Safe: (RAASH) Rotor speed Attitude Altitude Speed Heading
Dual-Engine Failure
- Autorotate
Single-Engine Failure
- Achieve safe single engine airspeed (if possible)
- External cargo/stores - Jettison (if required)
Fires: APU/Electrical/Engine
If ENG EMER OFF Handle/APU fire T-handle illuminates in flight:
- Airspeed adjust to 80 KIAS or less
- ENG POWER CONT lever - OFF
- ENG EMER OFF handle/APU fire T-handle - Pull (as appropriate)
- FIRE EXTGH switch - MAIN/RESERVE as required
If an electrical fire is present:
- BATT and GENERATORS switches - OFF
Engine Control Malfunction - (DEC/EDECU) Low Side Failure
If NR continues to decrease and single engine flight is not possible:
- ENG POWER CONT lever (low Q/TGT engine) - LOCKOUT (Maintain Q approximately 10% below other engine)
Stabilator Uncommanded Nose Down Pitch Attitude Change
If an uncommanded nose down pitch attitude occurs:
- Cyclic mounted stabilator slew-up switch - Adjust (as required to arrest nose down pitch rate)
Flight Control/Rotor System Vibrations or Malfunctions on Ground
- ENG POWER CONT levers - OFF
- ENG FUEL SYS selectors - OFF
- FUEL BOOST PUMP switches - OFF
Lightning Strike
- ENG POWER CONT levers - Adjust (as required to control NP and NR)
Loss of Tail Rotor Control
If during cruise flight a right yaw becomes uncontrollable:
- AUTOROTATE - Maintain airspeed at or above 80 KIAS
- ENG POWER CONT LEVERS - OFF (during deceleration when intended point of landing is assured)
If at low airspeed or hover a right yaw becomes uncontrollable:
- Collective - Reduce
- ENG POWER CONT levers - OFF (5-10 feet above touchdown)
If an uncontrolled left yaw develops during low airspeed or hover:
- ENG POWER CONT levers - Retard
- Collective - Increase (NR will decrease)
- ENG POWER CONT levers - OFF (5-10 feet above touchdown)
- Collective - Adjust for landing
1 Hydraulic Pump No Back-Up Pump
BACK-UP HYD PUMP switch - ON
Tail Rtr Servo #1 Caution and Back-Up Pump on does not appear
TAIL SERVO switch - BACK-UP
Subsequent actions:
Backup hydraulic pump switch: On
Emergency Release of Rescue Hoist (External)
- If possible, relieve tension on the cable.
- On either pilot’s or crew panel CABLE CUT button - Press
Hoist Runaway or Motor Brake Failure (External)
- Hoist Operator announce runaway
- Hoist Operator pendant thumbwheel UP/DOWN as required to control cable/load
If control is possible:
- Maintain positive pressure in corrective direction
If control is not possible:
- Pilots hoist control panel PILOT OVERRIDE switch - UP or DN, as required to control cable/load
If control is possible (Motor Brake Failure):
- Maintain positive pressure in corrective direction
- See Urgency to Land
If control is not possible (Hoist Runaway):
- HOIST POWER SWITCH - OFF
- See Urgency to Land
