Altitudes are converted to meters and airspeeds are converted to km/h only. POWER FAILURE ABOVE 150 METERS (500 FEET) AGL 1. Lower collective immediately to maintain rotor RPM. 2. Establish a steady glide at approximately 130 km/h (70 KIAS). (For maximum glide distance or minimum rate of descent, see page 9-F3.13.) 3. Adjust collective to keep RPM between 97 and 108% or apply full down collective if light weight prevents attaining above 97%. 4. Select landing spot and, if altitude permits, maneuver so landing will be into wind. 5. A restart may be attempted at pilot’s discretion if sufficient time is available (See “Air Restart Procedure”, page 3-3 of basic manual). 6. If unable to restart, turn unnecessary switches and fuel valve off. 7. At about 12 meters (40 feet) AGL, begin cyclic flare to reduce rate of descent and forward speed. 8. At about 2.4 meters (8 feet) AGL, apply forward cyclic to level ship and raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing. Touch down in level attitude with nose straight ahead. FAA APPROVED: 4 MAY 2017 Page 9-F3.12 ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT SECTION 3: EMERGENCY PROCEDURES (cont’d) POWER FAILURE BETWEEN 2.4 METERS (8 FEET) AND 150 METERS (500 FEET) AGL 1. Lower collective immediately to maintain rotor RPM. 2. Adjust collective to keep RPM between 97 and 108% or apply full down collective if light weight prevents attaining above 97%. 3. Maintain airspeed until ground is approached, then begin cyclic flare to reduce rate of descent and forward speed. 4. At about 2.4 meters (8 feet) AGL, apply forward cyclic to level ship and raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing. Touch down in level attitude and nose straight ahead. POWER FAILURE BELOW 2.4 METERS (8 FEET) AGL 1. Apply right pedal as required to prevent yawing. 2. Allow rotorcraft to settle. 3. Raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing. MAXIMUM GLIDE DISTANCE CONFIGURATION 1. Airspeed approximately 167 km/h (90 KIAS). 2. Rotor RPM approximately 90%. Best glide ratio is about 4.7:1 or one kilometer per 213 meters (one nautical mile per 1300 feet) AGL. MINIMUM RATE OF DESCENT CONFIGURATION 1. Airspeed approximately 102 km/h (55 KIAS). 2. Rotor RPM approximately 90%. Minimum rate of descent is about 410 meters per minute (1350 feet per minute). Glide ratio is about 4:1 or one kilometer per 250 meters (one nautical mile per 1500 feet) AGL. CAUTION Increase rotor RPM to 97% minimum when autorotating below 150 meters (500 feet) AGL. FAA APPROVED: 4 MAY 2017 Page 9-F3.13 ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT SECTION 3: EMERGENCY PROCEDURES (cont’d) LOSS OF TAIL ROTOR THRUST DURING FORWARD FLIGHT Failure is usually indicated by nose right yaw which cannot be corrected by applying left pedal. 1. Immediately enter autorotation. 2. Maintain at least 130 km/h (70 KIAS) if practical. 3. Select landing site, roll throttle off into detent spring, and perform autorotation landing. NOTE When a suitable landing site is not available, the vertical fin may permit limited controlled flight at low power settings and airspeeds above 130 km/h (70 KIAS); however, prior to reducing airspeed, reenter full autorotation.

See placard on page 9-F3.7. PITCH AND BANK ANGLES The maximum recommended pitch angle is 20 degrees nose down or nose up except during flare in autorotation. The maximum recommended bank angle is 45 degrees with passengers on board or 60 degrees without passengers. COLD WEATHER OPERATION Special precautions should be taken if the engine is to be started in ambient temperatures below -5°C. Ensure correct oil grade is utilized. Preheat engine and engine oil to a minimum temperature of -5°C. Preheating can be accomplished by parking the helicopter in a warm enclosure or by using an electrical engine preheat system. CAUTION Failure to preheat engine before starting may result in internal engine damage. ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT SECTION 4: NORMAL PROCEDURES (cont’d) COLD WEATHER OPERATION (cont'd) When landing in areas without preheating equipment, it is advisable to start the helicopter hourly to maintain engine warmth. Using carburetor heat is recommended to assist in engine warming. Avionics equipment may not function, or function improperly, after a rotorcraft cold soak. Warm up the cabin to pass avionics self-test successfully. NOTE The following procedures are unchanged from those of the basic manual. Altitudes are converted to meters and airspeeds are converted to km/h only. CRUISE 1. Adjust carb heat if required (see page 4-12 of basic manual). 2. Verify RPM in green arc. 3. Set manifold pressure as desired with collective. Ob- serve MAP and airspeed limits. Maximum recom- mended cruise speed is 204 km/h (110 KIAS). 4. Verify gages in green, warning lights out. CAUTION Do not exceed 204 km/h (110 KIAS) except in smooth air, and then only with caution. In turbulence, use lower airspeed. If turbulence is significant or becomes uncomfortable for the pilot, use 111 to 130 km/h (60 to 70 KIAS). FAA APPROVED: 4 MAY 2017 Page 9-F3.16 ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT SECTION 4: NORMAL PROCEDURES (cont’d) DOORS-OFF OPERATION Maximum airspeed with any door(s) off is 185 km/h (100 KIAS). Warn passenger to secure loose objects and to keep head and arms inside cabin to avoid high velocity airstream. PRACTICE AUTOROTATION – POWER RECOVERY 1. Adjust carb heat if required (see page 4-12 of basic manual) 2. Lower collective to down stop and reduce throttle as required for small tachometer needle separation. CAUTION To avoid inadvertent engine stoppage, do not chop throttle to simulate a power failure. Always roll throttle off smoothly for small visible needle split. NOTE Governor is inactive below 80% engine RPM regardless of governor switch position. NOTE When entering autorotation from above 1200 meters (4000 feet), reduce throttle slightly before lowering collective to prevent engine overspeed. 3. Adjust collective to keep rotor RPM in green arc and adjust throttle for small needle separation. 4. Keep airspeed 111 to 130 km/h (60 to 70 KIAS). 5. At about 12 meters (40 feet) AGL, begin cyclic flare to reduce rate of descent and forward speed. 6. At about 2.4 meters (8 feet) AGL, apply forward cyclic to level aircraft and raise collective to control descent. Add throttle if required to keep RPM in green arc. FAA APPROVED: 4 MAY 2017 Page 9-F3.17 ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT FAA APPROVED: 4 MAY 2017 Page 9-F3.18 SECTION 4: NORMAL PROCEDURES (cont’d) PRACTICE AUTOROTATION – POWER RECOVERY (cont'd) CAUTION Simulated engine failures require prompt lowering of collective to avoid dangerously low rotor RPM. Catastrophic rotor stall could occur if the rotor RPM ever drops below 80% plus 1% per 300 meters (1000 feet) of altitude. DESCENT, APPROACH, AND LANDING 1. Reduce power with collective as desired. Adjust carb heat as required. Observe airspeed limits. Maximum recommended airspeed is 204 km/h (110 KIAS) ex- cept in smooth air. CAUTION Do not initiate a descent with forward cyclic. This can produce a low-G condition. Always initiate a descent by lowering collective. 2. Make final approach into wind at lowest practical rate of descent with initial airspeed of 111 km/h (60 knots). 3. Reduce airspeed and altitude smoothly to hover. (Be sure rate of descent is less than 1.5 m/s (300 FPM) before airspeed is reduced below 56 km/h (30 KIAS).) 4. From hover, lower collective gradually until ground contact. 5 After initial ground contact, lower collective to full down position. ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT SECTION 4: NORMAL PROCEDURES (cont’d) NOISE ABATEMENT To improve the quality of our environment and to dissuade overly restrictive ordinances against helicopters, it is imperative that every pilot minimize noise irritation to the public. Following are several techniques which should be employed when possible. 1. Avoid flying over outdoor assemblies of people. When this cannot be avoided, fly as high as practical, preferably over 600 meters (2000 feet) AGL. 2. Avoid blade slap. Blade slap generally occurs at airspeeds below 185 km/h (100 KIAS). It can usually be avoided by maintaining 185 km/h (100 KIAS) until rate of descent is over 5 meters per second (1000 feet per minute), then using a fairly steep approach until airspeed is below 120 km/h (65 KIAS). With the right door vent open, the pilot can easily determine those flight conditions which produce blade slap and develop piloting techniques to eliminate or reduce it. 3. When departing from or approaching a landing site, avoid prolonged flight over noise-sensitive areas. Always fly above 150 meters (500 feet) AGL and preferably above 300 meters (1000 feet) AGL. 4. Repetitive noise is far more irritating than a single occurrence. If you must fly over the same area more than once, vary your flight path to not overfly the same buildings each time. 5. When overflying populated areas, look ahead and select the least noise-sensitive route. NOTE Above procedures do not apply where they would conflict with Air Traffic Control clearances or when, in the pilot’s judgment, they would result in an unsafe flight path.

ROBINSON R44 CADET SECTION 9 IAC AR SUPPLEMENT FAA APPROVED: 4 MAY 2017 Page 9-F3.25 SECTION 7: SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION EMERGENCY LOCATOR TRANSMITTER Aircraft operated in difficult to reach and sparsely populated areas or on long flights over water must be equipped with a VHF-band emergency radio or a portable COSPAS-SARSAT VHF/UHF-band emergency locator transmitter stowed under the pilot's seat. The operator is responsible for providing this equipment. FIRST-AID KIT A first-aid kit provided by the operator is required equipment for IAC AR-certified aircraft. For all but Police versions, the first-aid kit is stowed in a compartment mounted at the base of the forward-left seat. For Police versions, the first-aid kit is stowed in the aft-right baggage compartment. FLIGHT CONTROLS Collective operation is conventional. The engine throttle is correlated to collective inputs through a mechanical linkage. When the collective is raised, the throttle is opened and when the collective is lowered, the throttle is closed. The collective stick also incorporates a twist grip throttle control which is described in the Engine Controls section. CAUTION Above 1200 meters (4000 feet), throttle- collective correlation and governor are less effective. Therefore, power changes should be slow and smooth. CAUTION At high power settings above 1800 meters (6000 feet), the throttle is frequently wide open and RPM must be controlled with the collective.
