3.11 Glide Slope Approach to a Hover
Condition(s):
1.
Precision RDASS at a 35m hover altitutde
2.
Precision RDASS at least 75m from the Operator Controlling
the Aircraft
3.
Sufficient obstacle clearance to perform maneuver
Standard(s):
1.
Maintain heading ± 10 degrees of desired heading.
2.
Maintain desired ground track ± 3m
3.
Maintain consistent glideslope during descent
4.
Arrive within a 3m radius above intended point of landing
Crew Actions:
Operator Controlling the Aircraft (OCA):
1.
Announce flight actions e.g. beginning descent, turning
left, etc.
Visual Observer (VO):
1.
Operator Controlling the Aircraft in determining the
position of the aircraft over the intended landing area
2.
Assist the Operator Controlling the Aircraft in
maintaining obstacle clearance and avoidance
Procedure:
Flight Tablet. Decrease the fly-to altitude to minimum altitude
or as low as obstacles allow. As the aircraft begins to descend,
use the virtual joysticks to steer the aircraft toward the point of
intended landing.
Remote Control. Simultaneously decrease the throttle and give
direction flight control inputs on the cyclic to direct the vehicle
toward the intended point of landing. If the RCO desires to
terminate the approach at the surface, the FTO must press the
“Land Now” button to allow the RCO to descend below the
minimum altitude set in mission limits.
