HELICOPTER CATEGORY

H1 Control helicopter on the ground – stationary

 1.                     Unit description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to operate a stationary helicopter on the ground.

 1.                     Elements and performance criteria
     1.               H1.1 – Start and stop engine
            1.        ensure the helicopter is in a suitable location for starting the engine and rotors;
            2.        perform pre-start and start actions;
            3.         perform shutdown and after-shutdown actions;
            4.        control blade sailing during start and shut down by appropriate positioning of helicopter and use of cyclic pitch;
            5.        comply with manufacturer's limitations and report deviations when appropriate;
            6.          manage emergencies appropriately (simulated).
     2.               H1.2 – Engage rotor
            1.        set engine RPM within limits before rotor engagement (if applicable – this is only relevant to the few rotorcraft, including the R22 and R44 which are the most common basic trainers);
            2.        engage rotor correctly (if applicable);
            3.         maintain engine RPM within limits during rotor engagement;
            4.        maintain disc position within operating limits as Rotor RPM (RRPM) increases;
            5.        operate rotor brake correctly (if applicable – this is only relevant to the very few rotocraft that can run 1 engine at idle before rotor engagement);
            6.          monitor and react appropriately to transmission, hydraulic system and engine indications (if applicable).
     3.               H1.3 – Control main rotor disc and
