The basic procedures and responses associated with emergencies such as engine failure, fire, and autorotation.
Emergency Landing Procedures: An overview of the procedures to be followed during an emergency landing, including assessing the situation, communicating with the pilot and passengers, and choosing the best landing site.
Emergency Response Plan: A comprehensive plan that outlines the steps to be taken in the event of an emergency situation.
Communication Protocols: Guidelines for effective communication during an emergency, including radio use, code words, and specific protocols.
Passenger Safety Guidelines: Instruction on how to ensure passenger safety during an emergency, including appropriate use of safety equipment, such as seat belts and emergency exits.
Flight Planning and Preparation: Steps necessary for flight planning, including weather assessment, fuel planning, cargo and weight balance, aircraft inspection, and equipment checks.
Medical Emergency Procedures: Procedures to follow in the event of a medical emergency during a flight, including first aid measures, radio communication, and emergency medical services (EMS) coordination.
Survival Techniques: Survival techniques necessary in emergency situations, such as building shelter, finding water and food, and signaling for help.
Search and Rescue Procedures: Procedures for coordinating with search and rescue teams in the event of an emergency or accident.
Weather Emergencies: Procedures to follow in the event of weather-related emergencies such as thunderstorms, icing, and high winds.
Fire Fighting Procedures: Procedures to follow in the event of a fire on board the helicopter, including fire suppression techniques, radio communication, and emergency landing procedures.
Electrical and Instrument Failures: Procedures to follow in the event of electrical or instrument failures, including assessing the situation, communication protocols, and landing procedures.
Engine Out Procedures: Procedures to follow in the event of an engine failure, including assessment of the situation, communication procedures, and emergency landing procedures.
Engine Failure: In this emergency, the engine of the helicopter fails, and the pilot must smoothly land the helicopter as soon as possible.
Medical Emergency: When a passenger or crew member has a medical issue, the helicopter crew must provide quick medical attention to stabilize the person until they can receive additional medical assistance on the ground.
Fire: If something catches fire inside or outside the helicopter, the pilot needs to control the situation while getting the helicopter to the closest helipad or runway.
Fuel Issues: If the fuel supply or gauge malfunctions, the pilot must quickly find a place to land, either on the ground or water, and seek assistance.
Landing Gear Failure: When the helicopter's landing gear fails to function, the pilot must carefully land the helicopter without significant damage.
Rotor Blade Damage: If one or more of the rotor blades on the helicopter are damaged, the pilot must maintain control of the helicopter and make an emergency landing.
Ground Collision: If a helicopter collides with the ground, the pilot must immediately evacuate everyone from the helicopter.
Weather-Related Emergencies: In bad weather such as a thunderstorm, the pilot must seek assistance in selecting an alternate route or destination or land the helicopter safely.
Loss of Visibility: If the pilot loses visibility due to fog or poor weather conditions, they must use instruments to maintain control of the helicopter and find a place to land.
Electrical Faults: If there is an electrical fault, the pilot needs to ensure that the helicopter's power supply is still operative, and they can steer the helicopter to land safely.
