Regulatory changes are proposed for new engine certification for multi-engine helicopters to account for contingency operations when one engine goes out at take-off. The new rules are needed because current regulations define category A and B conditions as one-engine out, land immediately, or continue take-off, respectively. Category A is seldom feasible while Category B requires oversize engines, implying lowered fuel efficiencies. However, NASA studies have shown that engines with large contingency power can operate more efficiently in normal conditions due to decreased coolant flow. Techniques for realizing up to a 50 percent power augmentation with minor modifications of existing engines are described.
