Overview
Pilot's Operating Handbook and FAA Approved Rotorcraft Flight Manual · 2024

This Pilot's Operating Handbook (POH) serves as a comprehensive operating guide for the Robinson R22 helicopter series, including the R22 Alpha, Beta, and Mariner models. It contains essential information required by the FAA under 14 CFR parts 21 and 27, ensuring pilots have access to necessary operational data. The handbook emphasizes the importance of understanding the helicopter's limitations, performance characteristics, and emergency procedures. It is crucial for pilots to familiarize themselves with the contents before flight, as the handbook is not a substitute for flight instruction or knowledge of airworthiness directives. The document is structured into ten sections, covering everything from general information to specific performance metrics and emergency procedures.

  • Maximum gross weight for R22 Standard & HP is 1300 lb (590 kg).
  • Never-exceed airspeed (VNE) is 102 KIAS up to 3000 feet density altitude.
  • Power on rotor speed limits are 104% maximum and 101% minimum RPM.
  • Engine maximum continuous speed is 104% (2652 RPM).
  • Minimum crew requirement is one pilot in the right seat.
