,What actions should you take if engine failure occurs at altitude? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔lower the collective pitch control to maintain rotor RPM
during a hover, a helicopter tends to drift right. to compensate for this some
helicopters? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔rotor mast is rigged to the left side
if the rpm is low and manifold pressure is high what initial corrective action
should be taken? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔lower the collective pitch
high air speeds especially in turbulent air should be avoided because the
possibility of ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔the retreating blade to stall in forward flight,
stalls are more likely to occur under conditions of high gross weight, low
rpm, high density altitude, steep or abrupt turns, and or turbulent flight.
translation lift is the result of? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Airspeed
during surface taxi the collective pitch is used to control? - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔the rate of speed. the higher the collective pitch the higher the taxi
speed.
the upward bending of the rotor blades resulting from the combination of lift
and centrifugal forces is known as - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔coning

🧠ANSWER ✔✔anti torque pedals
medium frequency vibrations would be associated with - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔defects in tail rotor
while in cruise level flight, low frequency vibrations (100-400 cycles per
minute) are usually associated with? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔always associated
with the main rotor
a stall is the results of ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔exceeding the angle of attack
What is ground effect ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔the result of interference of the
surface
the primary purpose of the tail rotor system is to ? - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔counteract the torque effect of the main rotor
the most effective method of scanning for other aircraft for collision
avoidance during daylight hours is to use ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔a series of
short regularly spaced eye movements that bring successive areas of the
sky into the central visual field each movement should not exceed 10

, degrees and each area should be observed for at least one second to
enable detection
translation lift is the result of ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔increased rotor efficiency
in a no wind condition, which control is used to change heading? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔cyclic control
a helicopter that is improperly loaded with a CG forward of forward limits
will ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔*have a nose low altitude * need excessive rearward
displacement of the cyclic to maintain hover
the wind conditions that requires the most caution when avoiding wake
turbulence on landing is - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔light tail winds because they can
move the vortices of a preceding aircraft forward into the anticipated touch
down zone of another
when operating at high forward air speeds, retreating blade stall are more
likely to occur under which conditions? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔high gross weight,
low rpm, high density altitude, steep or adrupt turns, and or turbulent flight
to initiate a quick stop ? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔aft the cyclic and simultaneously
lower the collective pitch
