- Chapter 11: Helicopter Emergencies and Hazards › System Malfunctions › Antitorque System Failure
System Malfunctions By following the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding operating limits and procedures and periodic maintenance and inspections, many system and equipment failures can be eliminated. Certain malfunctions or failures can be traced to some error on the part ... pilot; therefore, appropriate flying techniques and use of threat and error management may help to prevent an emergency Antitorque System Failure Antitorque failure usually falls into one of two categories. One is failure of the power drive portion…

from a single cyclic located in the center of the helicopter. The cyclic can pivot in all directions. Antitorque Pedals The antitorque pedals, located on the cabin floor by the pilot’s feet, control the pitch and therefore the thrust ... tail rotor blades or other antitorque system. See Chapter 5, Helicopter Components, Sections, and Systems, for a discussion on these other systems.

- Chapter 4: Helicopter Components, Sections, and Systems › Antitorque System
Antitorque System Helicopters with a single, main rotor system require a separate antitorque system. This is most often accomplished through a variable pitch, antitorque rotor or tail rotor. [Figure 4-13] Pilots vary the thrust of the antitorque system ... transmission to ensure tail rotor rotation (and hence control) in the event that the engine quits. Usually, negative antitorque thrust is needed in autorotations to overcome transmission friction. Figure 4-12. Freewheeling unit in normal drive position and freewheeling position…

Section 4. Two-way Radio Communications Failure 6-4-1. Two-way Radio Communications Failure a. It is virtually impossible to provide regulations and procedures applicable to all possible situations associated with two-way radio communications failure. During ... radio communications failure, when confronted by a situation not covered in the regulation, pilots are expected to exercise good judgment in whatever action they elect to take. Should the situation so dictate they should not be reluctant…
