CS 29.939 Turbine engine operating characteristics

• ED Decision 2003/16/RM found in: CS-29 Amdt 10 - Large Rotercraft (Jan 2023)

CS 29.939 Turbine engine operating characteristics ED Decision 2003/16/RM (a) Turbine engine operating characteristics must be investigated in flight to determine that no adverse characteristics (such as stall, surge, or flameout) are present, to a hazardous degree, during normal and emergency operation within the range of operating limitations of the rotorcraft and of the engine. (b) The turbine engine air inlet system may not, as a result of airflow distortion during normal operation, cause vibration harmful to the engine. (c) For governor-controlled engines, it must be shown that there exists no hazardous torsional instability of the drive system associated with critical combinations of power, rotational speed, and control displacement.
