of descent with initial airspeed of 60 knots. Adjust carb
heat as required.

sure rate of descent is less than 300 FPM before
airspeed is reduced below 30 KIAS.)
3. From hover, lower collective gradually until ground
contact.
4. After initial ground contact, lower collective to full down
position.
CAUTION
When landing on a slope, return cyclic control
to neutral before final reduction of rotor RPM.

unattended while engine is running.
