00:05.829 --> 00:08.890
Your task is to establish a helicopter

00:08.899 --> 00:12.640
landing point conditions . You are a

00:12.649 --> 00:14.970
leader in a unit that is expecting an

00:14.979 --> 00:18.610
inbound uh 60 series aircraft and must

00:18.620 --> 00:21.239
establish a landing point . You have a

00:21.250 --> 00:24.110
landing site and marking material to

00:24.120 --> 00:26.600
mark the landing site which may include

00:26.700 --> 00:29.370
strobe lights , flashlights or chem

00:29.379 --> 00:31.250
lights and engineer tape

00:33.270 --> 00:36.099
standards . Secure the landing site .

00:36.549 --> 00:38.771
Select a suitable landing point for the

00:38.771 --> 00:41.799
uh 60 series aircraft to land and take

00:41.810 --> 00:43.900
off without exposing it to risk ,

00:44.790 --> 00:46.939
prepare the landing site and mark the

00:46.950 --> 00:48.894
landing site and touchdown point .

00:49.310 --> 00:51.340
Complete all performance measures

00:51.349 --> 00:54.529
within five minutes . Performance steps

00:54.540 --> 00:57.520
are the following step . One ,

00:58.409 --> 01:00.889
establish security for the landing site .

01:01.479 --> 01:03.701
You will verbally request security from

01:03.701 --> 01:07.669
the evaluator requesting 360

01:07.680 --> 01:11.309
security . Step two , select a

01:11.319 --> 01:14.279
landing point start by selecting a

01:14.290 --> 01:16.449
landing point large enough for the uh

01:16.639 --> 01:19.760
60 series aircraft . The landing zone

01:19.769 --> 01:22.529
must be at least 50 m in diameter .

01:22.970 --> 01:25.529
Ensure ground slope is safe for landing .

01:25.709 --> 01:27.653
When the ground slope is less than

01:27.653 --> 01:29.879
seven degrees , the helicopter should

01:29.889 --> 01:33.750
land up slope when the ground slope

01:33.760 --> 01:36.919
is 7 to 15 degrees , the helicopter

01:36.930 --> 01:40.620
must land side slope . Helicopters

01:40.629 --> 01:42.940
cannot safely land on a slope of more

01:42.949 --> 01:46.379
than 15 degrees . Ensure the ground is

01:46.389 --> 01:48.470
firm enough that the helicopter does

01:48.480 --> 01:50.860
not become mired or stuck during

01:50.870 --> 01:53.980
loading or unloading . If firm ground

01:53.989 --> 01:56.629
cannot be found issue the pilot an

01:56.639 --> 01:59.669
advisory if necessary , the pilot can

01:59.680 --> 02:01.629
hover at the landing site during

02:01.639 --> 02:04.129
loading or unloading . Ensure the

02:04.139 --> 02:06.083
landing site will provide adequate

02:06.083 --> 02:08.300
security . Landing sites should offer

02:08.309 --> 02:10.669
some security from enemy observation

02:10.800 --> 02:13.410
and direct fire . Good landing sites

02:13.419 --> 02:15.639
will allow the helicopter to land and

02:15.649 --> 02:18.110
depart without exposing it to unneeded

02:18.119 --> 02:20.830
risks . Security is normally

02:20.839 --> 02:22.990
established around the entire landing

02:23.000 --> 02:26.960
site . Avoid areas which may cause the

02:26.970 --> 02:29.270
pilot to lose visual contact with the

02:29.279 --> 02:32.800
ground such as dusty , sandy or snow

02:32.809 --> 02:36.199
covered surfaces . Step three ,

02:36.270 --> 02:39.360
prepare the landing site , remove all

02:39.369 --> 02:41.425
loose debris from the landing site ,

02:41.610 --> 02:43.910
clear the entire landing point of any

02:43.919 --> 02:46.070
loose material that the rotors could

02:46.080 --> 02:49.149
blow up . Rotor wash , stirs up any

02:49.160 --> 02:52.589
loose dirt , sand or snow . This can

02:52.600 --> 02:54.979
obscure the ground and other aircraft

02:55.000 --> 02:57.949
especially at night . If a site must be

02:57.960 --> 03:00.419
used with obscuring conditions , the

03:00.429 --> 03:02.440
helicopter must be advised of

03:02.449 --> 03:03.289
conditions ,

03:06.059 --> 03:08.039
identify all obstacles within the

03:08.050 --> 03:11.320
landing site . An obstacle is an object

03:11.330 --> 03:13.770
that is 18 inches or more in height ,

03:13.779 --> 03:17.509
width or depth . If applicable ,

03:17.539 --> 03:19.990
clearly mark unmovable obstructions or

03:20.000 --> 03:22.970
obstacles with engineer tape and advise

03:22.979 --> 03:25.460
the pilot or in this case , your

03:25.470 --> 03:29.320
evaluator , remove all obstacles

03:29.330 --> 03:32.130
such as stumps and rocks if possible ,

03:33.529 --> 03:37.050
fill in all holes if possible . Step

03:37.059 --> 03:39.729
four mark the landing site by an

03:39.740 --> 03:43.389
inverted y . When marking the

03:43.399 --> 03:45.860
landing site for night operations , it

03:45.869 --> 03:47.813
is important to remember a pilot's

03:47.813 --> 03:49.758
night vision goggles have filtered

03:49.758 --> 03:51.919
lenses that do not allow them to see

03:51.929 --> 03:55.410
blue or green chem lights . You can use

03:55.419 --> 03:57.740
strobe lights , chem lights or flash

03:57.750 --> 03:59.694
lights to mark the landing sites .

04:00.089 --> 04:02.320
Fully explain the marking system to the

04:02.330 --> 04:05.380
pilot or in this case , your evaluator

04:05.520 --> 04:09.020
when contact is made . Lastly , you

04:09.029 --> 04:11.196
must complete all required performance

04:11.196 --> 04:13.710
steps within five minutes and meet all

04:13.720 --> 04:15.776
administrative requirements for this

04:15.776 --> 04:18.440
task . Now , let's see a soldier

04:18.450 --> 04:20.959
perform this task at combat speed

04:22.350 --> 04:25.079
and verify zeroes on the clock . Um

04:25.630 --> 04:27.352
Time will start when you begin

04:27.450 --> 04:30.369
requested security size of the landing

04:30.380 --> 04:33.750
zone , 50 m in diameter , slope less

04:33.760 --> 04:35.982
than seven degrees helicopter will need

04:35.982 --> 04:39.730
to land up slope 7 to 15 degrees side

04:39.739 --> 04:42.339
slope . If it's more than 15 degrees ,

04:42.600 --> 04:44.600
the helicopter cannot s safely land

04:45.579 --> 04:47.839
clearance for the approach and the

04:47.850 --> 04:51.459
departure routes . Ensure the site

04:51.470 --> 04:54.809
provides adequate security surface ,

04:54.820 --> 04:57.540
ensure the ground is firm . Avoid all

04:57.549 --> 05:00.019
areas that cause pilot to lose , to

05:00.029 --> 05:03.739
lose visibility , contact dust , sand ,

05:03.769 --> 05:06.269
snow cover , identify anything that's

05:06.279 --> 05:09.149
18 inches or more in length , width or

05:09.160 --> 05:12.910
height mark all unmovable obstacles and

05:12.920 --> 05:15.920
advise the pilot fill in holes if

05:15.929 --> 05:18.010
possible and remove obstacles .

05:26.500 --> 05:31.079
1234567

05:36.029 --> 05:40.609
1234567

05:42.209 --> 05:46.619
1234567

05:49.890 --> 05:54.320
1234567

05:58.000 --> 06:03.980
123456789 ,

06:03.989 --> 06:06.700
1011 1213 ,

06:09.910 --> 06:14.480
1234567

06:17.950 --> 06:19.829
234

06:20.570 --> 06:27.739
67123456789 ,

06:27.750 --> 06:30.920
1011 1213 14 .

06:31.549 --> 06:33.771
This is my touchdown point . I used the

06:33.771 --> 06:35.299
inverted Y for my marking system .
