Jones Posted July 2, 2020 Report Share Posted July 2, 2020 flight manual says FUEL LOW Indications: Yellow indicator ON when approximately 35 pounds of fuel FUEL LEVEL LOW (22.5 LBS usable) remain in fuel tank. Land as soon as possible. AND HMI2 says FUEL LEVEL LOW warning light-on point, either 35 pounds for commercial helicopters or 70 pounds fuel remaining for noncommercial ma chines, must comply with the fuel low level caution light calibration specified in the Pilot's Flight Manual. A 70 pound fuel level low warning light calibration is not approved for commercial applications. ---- so noncommercial helicopter fuel low caution light warning light-on at 70 pounds remaining here is my question. Is it also land soon as possible when 70 pounds remaining warning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example Army OH-6A manual section below, even though calibration is also 35 pounds: Edited July 19, 2020 by iChris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
