NOTE
: For takeoff in noise–sensitive areas, refer to Paragraph 4–14.
Determine that hover area and takeoff path are clear.
Follow normal helicopter takeoff procedures.
NOTE
: With the Range Extender filler installed and the fuel system ‘‘topped off’’, the IIDS
fuel quantity will not display a decrease until after approximately 10 minutes of
flight.
4–9. CRUISE
If desired, press the VSCS Synchronization switch left or right for three seconds
to reset the VSCS to the current lateral acceleration and yaw rate.
4–10.SLOW FLIGHT/APPROACH
Observe controllability envelope and critical wind azimuth as stated in Section
II.
The NACA door actuators (if installed) receive a discrete input from an airspeed
switch in the airspeed indicator. This signals the NACA doors to automatically close.
When airspeed increases above 47 KIAS, the NACA doors open. If door actuator
fails to function properly, the IIDS will display ‘‘NACA DOOR’’ advisory message
in the alphanumeric display.
