skill building maneuvers
Published (2009-12-18 17:53:00)
Rick, turns are the same in both airplanes and helos. Only use what is required. 60 degrees will be 2 G's in either. 135 operator GOMs state 30 degress for passenger comfort. Use the slowest roll rate reversal possible. Do not have an acrobatic airplane flight mentality in a helicopter. Practice standard helo maneuvers! Be smooth as possible. Make your pax smile with ease of comfort or put them asleep and you will be OK!...

Carb icing

Choices 1 and 2 are explanations that I've gotten in the past from CFIs, and I agree, they don't make sense. The first choice ignores the relationship between temperature and dew point. The second is incorrect because humidity exists as water vapor (molecules that aren't "frozen" or "liquid"). Choices 3 and 4 are explanations I've seen in print, and I think both are correct. At cold...

Avionics For Helicopters?
Published (2009-12-21 17:31:00)
You can install any avionics you want but if you get in a accident your insurance can not cover you if the unit is unapproved!!! For the Ec120 I would only go with Sagem remember the single sagem unit can display pfd or mfd info,Eurocopter will have the units standard in a few years and Sagem also makes the autopilot for the EC120, the aspen is nice for your 206, 500E but not the quality that the Ec120...

skill building maneuvers
Published (2009-12-21 11:43:00)
In the fixed wing world there is a controversy regarding teaching spins and acrobatic maneuvers. There have been many accidents where aircraft spin to the ground with an instructor and student aboard. The spin is scary because of the delay in control response in the recovery. Some pilots cannot get over this and have an accident. I think that proper training changes the deadly risk into a precision maneuver. Spins are useful, when I finish an...

High School To Flight School

Thanks Lindsey for clearing that up. UPDATE: Been quite busy this week. I have a job at the local mall and my manager has me working six days in a row. Cleaning up the house as when my father gets back from Afghanistan we are moving. It will be nice since where we are moving there will be a flight school 25-30min from the area. I am pretty sure its the only flight school in NC. -in Concord NC (correct me if I am wrong). The next week or so I...

What's the issue? If you're competent and medical transport by air is proposed against your wishes, refuse. If you're not competent, then somebody will have to decide for you. They'll have carefully considered policies and protocols.

Choices 1, 2 and 4 are illogical. Number 5 is practical but doesn't address the issue, so number 3 is 'more correct'. At some point, the amount of water available to create an ice problem will be insufficient, if the books says -10C is that point, that's it.

Lot more eye stuff. EKG. stupid read out loud test. bit more blood. And at least the way I've always done it is over a couple visits (lab results come back before you see the flight surgeon).

Turbine time won't help you until you have at least 1200TT, and even then you'll need around 300-500hrs of it, so don't waste your money. When you have around 1000TT you can go to Temsco, or Papillon, where they will cover the cost of your turbine training.

In order to modify your helicopter or airplane you must do it by means of: 1) factory modification FAA approved 2) STC 3) Field approval Most of those avionics manufacturers are doing the STC approvals so owners merely have to buy the equipment and install it and the FAA will be happy. Helicopters generally make up a very small portion of general aviation aircraft and are less likely to ...

I'd wait, to be honest. You're in college, you've made some headway there. From someone who did what you're thinking of doing, I can tell you this: I've been out of school for three years trying to do this helicopter thing. It's been the most fun I could ever THINK of having. I've met some of my best friends and only met one real scumbag. Luckily I only lost 180 bucks when that school ...

Never ask the question "Am I dumb"? You might not like the answer. Seriously, the engineering of the aircraft and the principles of flight should not bog you down early. Get some time under your belt, then read the book and it will make a lot more sense. Keep at it! It is worth it in the end.
