What should you do if you have a loss of tail rotor thrust during a hover?
Give this one a try later!
The failure is usually indicated by a nose right yaw, which cannot be
corrected by applying left pedal
Immediately roll throttle off into overtravel spring and allow aircraft to
settle
Raise collective just before touchdown to cushion landing
Describe some of the responsibilities an aircraft owner has pertaining to aircraft
documents, maintenance, and inspections of their aircraft?
Give this one a try later!
, Aircraft owners must:
a. Have a current Airworthiness Certificate and Aircraft Registration in the
aircraft.
b. Maintain the aircraft in an airworthy condition including compliance with
all applicable Airworthiness Directives.
c. Ensure maintenance is properly recorded.
d. Keep abreast of current regulations concerning the operation of that
aircraft.
e. Notify the FAA Civil Aviation Registry immediately of any change of
permanent mailing address, or of the sale or export of the aircraft, or of the
loss of citizenship.
f. Have a current FCC radio station license if equipped with radios,
including emergency locator transmitter (ELT), if operated outside of the
United States.
What is the critical angle in a dynamic rollover situation?
Give this one a try later!
Angle of bank in which it is impossible to stop further roll
What is the rotor tip path plane?
Give this one a try later!
, The imaginary circular plane outlined by the rotor blade tips as they make a
cycle of rotation
What is the center of pressure?
Give this one a try later!
The imaginary point on the chord line where the resultants of all
aerodynamic forces are concentrated.
What causes low rpm blade stall?
Give this one a try later!
Result of the main rotor blades having an angle of attack that has created
so much drag that engine power is not sufficient to sustain normal
operating rpm
What is transverse flow effect?
Give this one a try later!
When in forward flight, the air passing over the rear portion of the disk has
a greater downwash angle than the air passing through the forward
portion. This creates more lift on the forward portion of the disk than the
rear portion of the disk.
, Does an airworthiness certificate have an expiration date?
Give this one a try later!
No. A standard airworthiness certificate remains valid for as long as the
aircraft meets its approved type design, is in a condition for safe operation,
and the maintenance, preventative maintenance, and alterations are
performed in accordance with 14 CFR Parts 21, 43, and 91.
What is the difference between an annual inspection and a 100-hour inspection?
Give this one a try later!
The inspections themselves are identical. An annual inspection can be
conducted only by an A&P mechanic who holds an Inspection
Authorization, while a 100-hour inspection can be performed by an A&P
mechanic without an IA.
What is the surface wind & gust spread limit until you have 200 hours in a helicopter &
50 hours in the R-22?
Give this one a try later!
Flight is prohibited if:
-surface winds exceed 25 knots, including gusts
-surface wind gust spreads exceed 15 knots
-moderate, severe, or extreme turbulence
