It includes material required to be furnished to the pilot by EASA CS 27 and Part 21. It also contains supplementary data supplied by the helicopter manufacturer. This manual is intended to give the pilot the best possible information and to help him find the best answer to most operational situation. However, it cannot replace pilot’s appreciation of each particular situation. Pilot must maintain adequate ground and flight instruction, and good proficiency in the type of helicopter. To achieve the required level of safety, the helicopter pilot-in-command must be familiar with this manual’s content, with other safety-related available information, and with all the regulation covering aircraft operation that are relevant in the country of operation. He is responsible for determining that the helicopter is safe for flight, and for operating it in respect to this manual and above information. The helicopter’s owner is responsible for maintaining the aircraft in approved airworthy condition and for maintaining this manual in a current status in accordance with the list of current pages.

Hélicoptères Guimbal SECTION 2 CABRI G2 LIMITATIONS 2-8 EASA Approved Original issue Indicated power on MLI The Multiple Limits Indicator displays the engine power status, based on engine manifold absolute pressure. The indicator (pointer and digits) displays power delivered by the engine in terms of margin to the first of these limits whose relative positions vary with engine inlet air temperature and altitude: • Power (PWR) limit: it corresponds to the engine 5-minute power of 119 kW (160 hp). The red radial PWR mark shows that the limit could be exceeded if the pilot requires too much power. • Yellow arc: it corresponds to the range of power above max cont. power (108 kW – 145 hp) that can be used for 5 minutes, up to 30 kt IAS. o After 1 minute in the yellow arc, a countdown indicator appears, displaying time remaining in minutes, surrounded by an increasing arc of ring figuring the time elapsed up to 5 minutes. The pilot should lower the power below the yellow arc before the count-down has elapsed or before exceeding 30 kt IAS. o After 5 minutes in the yellow arc, it becomes red, showing maximum duration has elapsed. o Limitations to use the yellow arc: ▪ Limited to 5 minutes and a maximum airspeed of 30 kt IAS, ▪ AVGAS only. Using alternate grades (refer to 2-6 Fuel) forbids the use of the yellow arc. • Throttle (FLO) limit: it corresponds to full throttle power. FLO limit corresponds to the maximum power that the engine can deliver. The red FLO arc warns the pilot that the limit cannot mechanically be exceeded in order to help him anticipate: the consequence of increasing collective when FLO limit is reached is the main rotor speed drop. The part of the yellow arc which extends above FLO limit appears in red, showing it cannot be used. The pilot should control the power demand to avoid exceeding PWR limit or 5 minute duration, or avoid entering yellow zone when 30 kt IAS is exceeded. Exceedance of the limit may result in accelerated engine and transmission performance degradation, but does not require any emergency procedure. Any degradation should be identified through normal maintenance in a timely manner.
