EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
This chapter contains all the checklists and procedures to be executed in emergency
situations.
Emergencies due to defects of the helicopter or its engine are extremely rare if the
aircraft is checked thoroughly before each flight and continuously maintained. If there
should occur a case of emergency, the guidelines of this chapter should be followed in
order to manage the emergency. However, evaluation of the situation and remedial
actions to deal with it remain the responsibility of the pilot.
This ultralight helicopter, like most ultralight aircraft, is fitted with a non-certified engine.
This means that there may be a higher risk of engine failure than with a certified aircraft
engine, with the associated risks of damage or injury as the result of an unplanned
landing. Therefore, strict compliance with the engine manufacturer’s maintenance
schedules, operational procedures is essential. The helicopter must always be flown
with the risk of engine failure in mind, and must not be flown over any large bodies of
water where a forced landing cannot be safely executed.
3.1
ENGINE FAILURE
– AUTOROTATION
WARNING !
A loss of power may be caused by a failure of engine or transmission.
A change in the noise level, a yawing movement or a loss of revolutions (RPM)
may indicate an engine failure.
An unusual noise, shock, alert, vibrations or serious yawing may indicate a
transmission failure.
In all events, lower the collective and perform precautionary landing.
EVERY PILOT MUST BE TRAINED FOR AUTOROTATION. ALWAYS PLAN YOUR
ROUTE TO REMAIN WITHIN SAFE GLIDING DISTANCE TO AREAS WHERE A
SAFE FORCED LANDING CAN BE PERFORMED.
