200
Electric heating elements and windshield wipers.
What is used to de-ice the glass windows in the cockpit while the remaining acrylic windshield and chin bubbles are defogged by hot air from the KO-50 heater?
200
The autopilot circuit breaker, compass system, and the copilot gyro horizon switches
What must be turned on prior to using the autopilot?

300
Located on the right clamshell door.
Where in the rear compartment is there an emergency escape hatch?
300
Activates the longitudinal hydraulic stop and deactivates the voice data recorder on the ground and vice versa in flight
What is the function of the microswitch (weight on wheels) on each main landing gear?
300
Allows pilot to change the engine power ratings individually without changing collective pitch setting.
What is the purpose of the engine condition levers (ECLs)?
300
Flight is prohibited if orange is visible on this component.
What is the drive link limiter?
300
Supplies compressed air from the APU to start the main engines.
What is the pressurized air system (PAS) used for?
400
both engines, main gearbox, oil color fan, hydraulic block and the auxilary power unit.
What is included in the nacelle?
400

What systems does the backup hydraulic system not provide fluid to?
500
17 section frames numbered 1 through 17
How many section frames are in the tailboom section?
500
Prevent the tail rotor from hitting the ground and reduce overloads on the tailboom when landing with excessive pitch up attitude.
What is the purpose of the tail strut?
500
These vary the main rotor thrust and engine power setting simultaneously while maintaining main rotor RPM at a constant setting
What are the combined linkage for the main rotor collective pitch and the engine throttles designed for?
500
Hinged assemblies
What feature allows the fully articulated (flap, feather, and hunt) movement of the rotor system?
500
This prevents the overflow of hydraulic fluid if the line or cylinder of the collective friction clutch is damaged.
