Hi Nick,
Your comments on this discussion would be much appreciated please!
We operate S76A models on EMS/SAR work in an environment which is mostly at sea level and temps up to the high 20's.
Cat A style helipad takeoffs ( yes no Cat A in the RFM for elevated helipads ) as well as confined area departures and winching ops.
The discussion revolves around the use to the engine trim switches to alter the Nr when taking off or during winch operations.
The RFM only refers to using 100 % Nr.
Are there any advantages/disadvantages in using 107%Nr in these situations with regard to a single engine failure and subsequent actions.
Your comments will be much appreciated thank you!
