Mission Helicopter-65E (MH-65E) Standardization Practice Test

Use of GA is limited to greater than how many feet AGL/AWL?

5 feet 15 feet 25 feet 35 feet

Correct Answer:

25 feet

Explanation:

Go-around is the maneuver to discontinue a landing and climb away safely. You must have enough altitude and rotor authority to transition from descent to a stable climb, achieve the necessary airspeed, and gain translational lift while avoiding obstacles or the ground. That safety margin is why the limit is set at 25 feet above the surface (AGL/AWL). Below that height you don’t have sufficient time or clearance to safely perform the go-around, increasing the risk of a hard landing or collision. The lower options are too close to the ground to execute safely, while the higher option is more conservative than required.
