GENERAL INFORMATION
Installation of the Sliding Ring Part N° 3G6220A00432 and Improved
Park Brake Part N° 3G3240V00332 allows increased slope landing
capability of the AW139.

SECTION 1 - LIMITATIONS

CENTRE OF GRAVITY LIMITATIONS

After installation of Sliding Ring and Improve Park Brake the new
empty weight and CG location must be determined.
No change in CG limitations

SLOPE LIMITATIONS
Sloped Take Off and Landing are limited to the following:
Nose up............................................................................................10°
Nose Down ......................................................................................10°
Left Wing Low ..................................................................................10°
Right Wing Low................................................................................10°

CAUTION

When landing nose down on slopes up to 10° attention

should be given to have a slope that does not endanger
striking the tail of the aircraft. A slope which allows the
tail to overhang the top of the slope is recommended.

SECTION 2 - NORMAL PROCEDURES

SLOPING GROUND OPERATION

Note
1(2) WOW FAIL caution may illuminate spuriously during
slope take-off or landing procedure.

TAKE OFF PROCEDURE

1. PARK BRAKE applied.

2. Increase collective and move cyclic in a coordinated manner to

achieve a lift off.

3. Establish hover above take off surface.

4. Release PARK BRAKE.

5. Take off as required.

LANDING PROCEDURE

1. Establish hover above landing area.

2. PARK BRAKE applied, (PARK BRAKE ON advisory message on

CAS).

3. Lower collective to commence vertical descent.

When the wheels contact the ground:

4. Move cyclic and collective in a coordinated manner to achieve the

cyclic centralized as the collective reaches MPOG.

5. If taxiing required release PARK BRAKE.
