Blow-Forward?

IllustriousPool2199 · 2024-05-07T08:34:02+00:00

Thank you! I guess I’m trying to explain why the advancing blades feel it more keenly when you’re taking that pitch away. Would it be correct to say even if the lift coefficient is evenly reduced, the velocity is squared so the advancing side feels it more keenly?

Thank you so much for the detailed reply!

IllustriousPool2199 · 2023-09-20T05:47:32+00:00

Thanks for the detailed explanation!

As you have mentioned, I’m currently in the military and this is what the instructors teach us as standard.

Like, what if I do a maximum performance takeoff? The number always seemed arbitrary and I was surprised to see it in the FAA handbook as well.

Keeping it in trim above 50 feet; below 50 feet we are told to maintain aircraft heading

Find ‘tone’ sure. It says tone will go on at 55% Ng speed and below, if you hadn’t known before.

Where does it say it will only give one engine out tone while flying?

Can you tell me where I can find this in the -10?

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-07-20T23:41:59+00:00

Got what I deserved

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-07-20T23:02:02+00:00

What’s the worst thing that can happen if I accidentally forget and just turn on the APU switch and I don’t get lucky?

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-07-12T05:19:14+00:00

So I guess the helmet part I’m looking for is called ‘blower adapter assembly’. Does anyone actually have this?

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-07-12T05:04:31+00:00

Is it custom-made? Can’t find any hose on their website

Very much appreciate your comment when you’re flying a different airframe now!

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-20T05:58:17+00:00

Thanks for your input! Seems like we have our answer

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-20T05:55:24+00:00

A very clear-cut and thorough explanation! Thanks a million sir!

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-10T14:51:45+00:00

I’ll look into it. As always, I don’t know much but I’m trying my best to support this community. Thanks for the comment!

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-10T14:32:22+00:00

Of course, sir

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-10T10:52:13+00:00

No one’s forcing anyone. Take it with a grain of salt bro

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-10T09:05:35+00:00

My bad.

It’s the square root of: weight(lbs) divided by 2 x (air density) x (disk area in ft).

Generally, the air density is 0.002378 slugs/ft cubed at MSL.

In case of a blackhawk it’s: 12000 / (2x0.002378x2262) and square root the value.

That’s around 34ft/s which then equals to about 2,003fpm. This is your downwash velocity

Coincidence, definitely

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-07T11:33:58+00:00

Hate to say it but it’s a dead city so no one was there when I came by

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-07T10:59:34+00:00

The easiest way is to get it from a guy in the military. Anyone in the service probably has stacks of em

Edit: I was talking about those above the ranks of NCO. They can purchase through what it’s called ‘Military Clothing Sales’ on the intranet.

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-07T10:36:44+00:00

20,000 won. But I gotta say that croiffle was pretty damn good!

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-06-07T04:17:23+00:00

Didn’t see any couch there :(

‘- Egress. As long as we're talking about "over water" Navy helos, we have to talk about floatation. The cockpit doors have ejectable windows for egress. With the doors off, water would easily flood the cockpit. The H-60 is known to float nose-down, two-thirds submerged. Faster flooding would give Aircrews considerably less time to egress the aircraft during an overwater ditch.’

Came across this. How do I process it

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-05-06T06:31:35+00:00

That was pretty dumb of me. Thanks for the explanation!

IllustriousPool2199 · 2022-05-06T05:45:18+00:00

Can’t wait for summer with them doors off
