2. Man/Nor selector - man
3. Twist Grip - slowly rotate toward max, as required
4. Collective/Twist Grip - coordinate
5. Land as soon as possible
Warn: rapid twist grip movement may result in exceedance
N1 below 51% will cause flameout

Question 13

2. Land as soon as possible
   note: chip burner not available with eng agb chip

Question 15

XMSN Malfunction

Answer 15

if failure is imminent
1. land immediately
if failure is not imminent
2. reduce power
3. monitor transmission parameters
4. land as soon as possible

warn: Possible indications of imminent transmission failure may include: yaw attitude excursions with no control input, an increase in power required for a fixed collective setting, increased noise,
increased vibrations, or abnormal fumes.
note: transit min power required airspeed at low alt to effect a quick flare and immediate landing in event of imminent failure

Question 16

XMSN Chip

Answer 16

If xmsn chip message illuminated
1. Check for secondary indications
if secondary indications exist
2. Transmission malf EP - perform
If no secondary indications:

note: no chip burner on ground, chip burner only 3x per flight

Question 17

Loss of T/R thrust in a hover

Answer 17

1. Twist grip - idle
2. Cyclic - eliminate drift
3. collective - increase to cushion the landing
   caut: slight rotation to the right can be expected on touchdown

Question 18

Loss of T/R thrust in cruise flight

Answer 18

1. Collective - lower to eliminate yaw
2. Airspeed - adjust to reach a suitable landing site
   on reaching point of intended landing
3. autorotate
4. twist grip - off prior to touchdown
   note: increase in power necessitates increase in speed to prevent helicopter from excessive yaw
