OBJECTIVES:
During this lesson, the student will be introduced to 180 degree autorotations and the effects of turns during autorotative descents.  The student will gain an understanding of power failure at altitude procedures.


CONTENT:
Review-
Normal takeoffs and approaches
Normal landings 
Steep approaches
Shallow approaches
Hovering - sideward, forward, rearward and turns (air taxi, hover taxi)
Straight in autorotations
Hovering autorotations
Rapid decelerations 
Slope operations
Recognition and recovery from low rotor RPM

Introduction-
Approaches to the surface
180 degree autorotation with power recovery
Settling with power - recognition and recovery
Simulated Power failure at altitude


COMPLETION STANDARDS
The student will gain an understanding of the importance of attitude and RPM control during 180 degree autorotations.  During power failure at altitude, the student will understand the need to immediately lower the collective to prevent a low rotor RPM situation and techniques for controlling RPM during autorotative descents.
