ENGINE FAILURE IN THE HOVER
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- Over the next four months I will be taking you through the entire training of a student doing his commercial helicopter license from start to finish. We will be mostly flying the Guimbal Cabri G2 but he will also be flying the Robinson R44 and the R66. We will be doing every flight exercise right from effects of controls through to autorotations, all types of helicopter emergencies, confined area landings, and up to the flight test at the end.
The students name is Sam Adams and you can follow him on

He is just getting his RUclips channel up and running so go show him some love.

YOUR INSTRUCTOR IS AAAH SOME LOTS OF INSTRUCTIONS WITH INFORMATION, AND PATIENCE EXCELLENT TEACHER. THANK YOU ALL FOR SHARING PLEASE CONTINUE ALL YOU DO.
Mischa, can you put the total hours Sam has clocked up in the description of each video. It would be good to see not only his great progress, but also how long its taking to get to that level. Gives a better perspective of how long certain exercises take to master. Thanks.
That's a fantastic suggestion.
When I was at the point of engine failure at a hover the instructor just cut the power without any warning. No count down. He would do this in flight as well and I would have to do a full auto landing. I’m really enjoying your flight training videos. Thanks.
Enjoy these daily flight videos, great to see how and what u teach and the students progression, I really like the super reinforcement of maneuvers .And not over drilling them,also u finish each maneuver with a good one before moving on,leaves positive feeling and not getting hung up or over thinking because last maneuver wasn't good. I do have to say he did great jobs on hover autos ,about to do commercial ckeck ride and that's the one maneuver I just don't like doing. Student is flying amazing with around 11-12 hrs congrads to him
An external perspective: I'm a long time fixed-wing guy and an IA. Every so often the rotor itch comes knocking. It stays longer every visit. Thus, I shall soon seek my add-on rating. Watching this exercise I find myself thinking it would be helpful to practice it with a more realistic engine failure input. Do engines catastrophically lose all power in an instant? Very rarely. Do they produce partial power for several seconds or minutes before failing? Almost every time. Sometimes they even surge. Almost all engine failures happen either on the initial their advance for takeoff or at the first reduction in power while establishing climb or cruise power settings. So I guess my suggestion is based purely on what I've seen in the maintenance world (and flying FW). Perhaps a partial roll off would be more realistic.
Very cool instructor. Makes learning easy.
This is so awesome! I am currently preparing to go from "Off The Street" to Commercially rated. I will be following all of this series. Subscribed and thank you so much!
Spam Musubi good luck!
I grew up playing ice hockey, how cool would that be to come visit you. You have such a great community Mischa. I want you to know that you’ve inspired me to begin my helicopter training. I flew Monday and Tuesday, and will fly again Friday.
This is awesome. Currently taking my cpl in Alberta, rewatching your videos now and it makes sense, I’m putting it together so much better now. Thank you!!!
Really enjoyed that video. Crystal clear!
NICE ! I can feel the excitement, never did fly one But did fly in Lots fighting forest fires. Always wanted too.
Great Instruction Mischa, cool as a cucumber. @ Sam well done, 11 hours in... its coming together. Eyes outside more, but that will come, Cheers , 11.4 Blade Slaps
Darren Burke thanks!
Good morning
I’d like to take some instruction from you…
I liked it!
Very impressive
Great series, definitely a thumbs up for the smile!
This messes with my head. How do you adjust to the opposite power pedal in a moment of stress?
Dream job!!
very interesting video today ...... regards...!¡.😊
I don’t blame you Sam I’d be cheesing as well.
Integrator 101 exactly!
You two are a cute couple
Ow wow
Mischa, you are a super instructor, teatcher, my only regrets, is you don’t speak french. Learn it quick, i am arriving. Bien amicalement Philippe from Marseille, near Bruno Guimbal factory
Mischa says" coming in a little high and fast", but why is it high and fast and why is that not desirable?
If you come in too high and fast you can overshoot your landing spot, and under certain circumstances (like little or no forward airspeed and high altitude above ground) you can find yourself in what's called a "dead man's curve" which is potentially dangerous. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_height%E2%80%93velocity_diagram
I don't think the H/V curve played a role in this specific case but it is somehing to be aware of.
lacidy I’m teaching for all scenarios. If you get used to a high and fast approach than one of the many times when you come in with a fully loaded jetranger you will simply start to settle with power or over torque your transmission. Or if your downwind you could end up in vortex ring state. Lots of reasons to make a good habit of slow standard approaches whenever possible.
Thank you for the explanation. I enjoy this channel!
I want you to train me!!
presmilazzo1 no problem, come up here and we’d be happy to train you.
wish there was a career in helicopter flying because you all make it look fun. but spending 80K to make 10K, with a ceiling of 80K at your pinnacle. yall are crazy.
the geek when it’s a passion it’s more than just money. That’s a bit of an exaggeration though. School is around $60K, you can make about $25-35K when you graduate. The average pilot is making $80K and the pinnacle is about $250K. Keep it in perspective.
