FLIGHTPLANNING
Eachflightmust be suitablyplannedin orderto ensuresafe operationand provideto
the pilotthe information
he will use duringflight.
Flightplanningmusttakeaccountof the limitations.
Make sure that the aircraft weight and CG position are correct, by proceedingas
follows:
. Referto SECTION6 - WEIGHTAND CENTEROF GRAVITY.
. Checkthe fuel and oil weight,the usefulload,etc.
o Computethe total takeoffweightand that which can be predictedfor landing.
r Determineaircraftperformancewith respectto plannedflight conditions.
r ComputeCG locationthroughoutthe flight duration.lf a fuel transferis foreseen,
determinethe conditionsin which it will be possible without exceedingCG
limitations.

The checkis to be performed:
r Headthe aircraftintothe windon a cleararea.
r Afterstartingbothengine,set one engineto IDLE/TRAINING.
o Switchott all P2 bleedair flow.
r Raisethe collectivepitchleverto obtainthe maximumavailablepower(fromthe
enginewhichis not in IDLETRAININGmode)at the limitof liftoff,withoutallowing
rotorspeedto dropbelow342 rpm.
o Checkthatthe bleedvalveis closedand that parameterreadingsare stable.
r For manualpower check, recordfollowingvalues on the engine in TRAINING
mode:
- enginetorque : Tq (%).
- exhaustgas temperature : TOT ("C).
- gas generatorspeed : Nl (%).
- rotorspeed : NR (rpm).
- pressurealtitude : Hp (ft).
- outsideair temperature : OAT("C).
. Applythe sameprocedurefor checkingthe otherengine.
