SECTION 9. Advanced Flight Maneuvers
Contents
1 Maximum Performance Takeoffs
If takeoff is from a confined area, the max performance takeoff procedure can be used. Begin with helicopter on the ground and collective full down. Raise collective until manifold pressure is at 29 inches (red line) while applying slight forward cyclic to begin forward movement. When clear of the obstacle apply additional forward cyclic. Once ETL is reached at about 30 mph, continue climb as normal.
2 Rapid Deceleration or Quick-Stop
3 Steep Approaches
A steep approach can be used when landing is to a confined area. Follow the same procedure as for a normal landing, but slow to 30 mph and maintain that speed through the descent.
4 QUICK STOP

5 SHALLOW APPROACH and RUN-ON LANDING
