You in the Australian Army? It looks like a modified lima which we don't have here in the US, but I know what Australia is one of he other big operators of the 60.
Affirm. I dropped back from full time to reserves after the retirement of the S-70A-9. So still in, but not in anymore. Australia is soon to acquire UH-60M. Maybe entice me to come back. But hey. Anything can happen.
@@ArmyAviator I hope that one day I can! let's see. Currently flying civilian offshore and instructor pilot. Enjoying instructing again after doing in the Military.
Flight idle for a helicopter is engines at operating RPM and flat pitch. IE collective full down. As supposed to ground idle whereby the engines are "wound down" to idle. In the Black Hawk it's controlled by the Power control levers (PCLs). Flight idle is also called "PCLs at fly."
Just to clarify too, engines at operating RPM implies the main rotor is turning at 100% or at operating RPM too! So in other words you can take off if you "pulled pitch." Pulled pitch is pulling up in the collective.
We do single pilot except for PCL manipulation. All ground runs here are single pilot. Just getting track and then balance. After about 4 runs track is less than 6mm. Then adjust for ground roll below 0.2 IPS.

@@Cleared_To_LandNice, I have never flown the Lima because I am a Mike pilot, but I will say that the Mike is a lot of fun to fly.

@@Cleared_To_Land Nice, I hope that you can fly it someday as well.
Wow. The track spread must have been bad. Wonder if initial ground vibes/tracks were good. Was this after a hover check?
140mm track!

(O_O) Hold up, hold up, hold up.....Was that bird taxing? I've never seen a hawk do grounds or any FCF with a single pilot.
