4.
At the point specified to begin the procedure turn inbound, select 315°
with the heading bug for a 180° turn toward the localizer. The deviation bar
shows pictorally the course you are to intercept as well as the angle of inter-
cept. Depress the APR push button to arm the back course approach mode.
Note that the left/right deviations of the course deviation bar give “fly to” indi-
cations. Automatic capture will occur to direct the aircraft on the localizer.
Note: If intercepting the localizer without a procedure turn, exercise judge-
ment when arming the back course approach mode. Side lobes exist on
many localizers which may cause the autopilot to capture the incorrect signal.
Depress the APR push button when your position is relatively close to the
localizer beam.
5.
The autopilot is following the flight director commands which maintain
localizer centerline tracking. A number of options are available to help you
descend while the autopilot remains coupled. With indicated airspeed hold
(IAS) or vertical speed hold (VS) and back course approach (BC) mode, the
FTR switch or CBT switch may be used for modification of pitch attitude for
the desired descent. Prior to reaching the minimum descent altitude (MDA),
the ALT push button can be depressed to activate altitude hold mode.
6.
Disengage the autopilot or press the Go Around push button at the
missed approach point. The Go Around push button will activate the go
around mode in which the flight director commands a 750fpm climb and roll
level. The Go Around push button is located on the collective. Altitude select
may be armed, if altitude
select is a desired mode, by
the desired altitude on the
altimeter/vertical speed indica-
tor. The autopilot should not
be engaged below approved
minimums.
Note: Refer to the Bell Model
430 Rotorcraft Flight Manual
for AFCS limitations.
