H160 fan , obsessed with GTC/TRK modes
Good day to all.
Was reading the fascinating report from years ago by @RVDT . I would recognize of beeing obsessed with ground referenced navigation as GTC / TRK modes. And have been seçarching for information about that in the H160 specs. With No luck. No details about this on training programs I have read. I am particularly interested in knowing the limitations of both these modes i.e. Max/Min speeds thay are effective on .For example surveing an powerline that stretches for kms on a strightline at 20/25 knt using GTC. Or following a moving boat in similar conditions ? . Engaging TRK mode effectively at < 30 knts.
I hope some real H160 pilot can comment on this topic. I read that , after all , airbus conceived this helicopter to be flown almost exclusively using Upper Modes On, all the time....Thank you very much.
