1. Apply right pedal
2. Allow aircraft to settle
3. Raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing.

1. Airspeed aprox. 75 KIAS.
2. Rotor RPM aprox. 90%.
3. Best glide ratio is aprox. 4:1 or one nautical mile per 1500 feet AGL.

CAUTION:  Increase rotor RPM to 97% minimum when autorotating below 500 feet AGL.

1. Mixture - full rich
2. Primer (if installed) - down and locked.
3. Throttle - closed, then cracked slightly.
4. Actuate starter with left hand.

CAUTION: Do not attempt restart if engine malfunction is suspected or before safe autorotation is established. 

1. Lower collective immediately to maintain RPM and enter normal autorotation.
2. Establish a steady glide at approximately 65 KIAS.
3. Adjust collective to keep RPM in green arc or apply full down collective if light weight prevents attaining above 97%.
4. Select landing spot and, if altitude permits, maneuver so landing will be into wind.
5. A restart may be attempted at pilot's discretion if sufficient time is available.
6. If unable to restart, turn off unnecessary switches and shut off fuel.
7. At about 40 feet AGL, begin cyclic flare to reduce rate of descent and forward speed.
8. At about 8 feet AGL, apply forward cyclic to level ship and raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing.  Touc down in level attitude with nose straight ahead.

Note: If power failure occurs at night, do not turn on landing lights above 1000 feet AGL to preserve battery power. 

1. Takeoff operation should be conducted per the Height-Velocity Diagram.
2. If power failure occurs, lower collective immediately to maintain rotor RPM.
3. Adjust collective to keep RPM in green arc or apply full down collective if light weight prevents attaining above 97%.
4. Maintain airspeed until ground is approached, then begin cyclic flare to reduce rate of descent and forward speed.
5. At about 8 feet AGL, apply forward cyclic to level ship and raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing.  Touch down with skids level and nose straight ahead.
