H6 Control helicopter during advanced manoeuvres

 1.                     Unit description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to control a helicopter during advanced manoeuvres and procedures.

 1.                     Elements and performance criteria
     1.               H6.1 – Turn helicopter steeply
            1.        complete airspace cleared procedure;
            2.        perform steep turns (45º) onto a nominated heading or geographical feature as follows:
                   1.          maintaining altitude;
                   2.         descending through a minimum descent of 500 ft;
                   3.       in balance.
     2.               H6.2 – Perform autorotative flight
            1.        enter and maintain autorotative flight at a nominated speed in balanced flight for the following profiles:
                   1.          straight descent at nominated heading and manufacturer's recommended speed;
                   2.         turning descent through 180˚ and 360˚ using up to 45˚ angle of bank;
                   3.       best range speed and minimum descent rate speed;
            2.        maintain RRPM within limitations during autorotative flight;
            3.         perform power recovery as follows:
                   1.          anticipate and comply with nominated minimum descent altitude;
                   2.         ensure engine RPM and RRPM 'needles' are rejoined prior to the setting of climb power;
                   3.       set climb power;
                   4.       control yaw;
                   5.         set climb speed;
            4.        perform power termination as follows:
                   1.          maintain RRPM within limitations;
                   2.         ensure throttle(s) is at 100% (or the equivalent terminology) prior to the commencement of the flare;
                   3.       commence flare at appropriate height for the prevailing conditions and reduce ground speed and rate of descent;
                   4.       controls attitude to achieve a decreasing closure rate and reducing rate of descent;
