26
Q

Define hypoxia

A

State of oxygen deficiency in the blood cells and tissues sufficient to cause impairment of function.

27
Q

Define tranlating tendency

A

The tendency of a single rotor helicopter with a counterclockwise rotating rotor system to drift laterally to the right while at a hover

28
Q

What causes Translating tendency

A

Thrust produced by the tail rotor to compensate for main rotor torque.

29
Q

Translating tendency compensation

A
  1. Rigging of the flight control system2. Tilting of the mast3. Stabilization augmentation systems4. Left cyclic input by the pilot
30
Q

Define Dissymmetry of lift

A

Unequal lift between advancing and retreating halves of the rotor disk caused by the different wind flow velocity across each half

31
Q

Relative wind velocity of advancing blade is blade speed ____ airspeed

A

Plus

32
Q

Relative wind velocity of retreating blade is blade speed ____ airspeed

A

Minus

33
Q

Main rotor method to overcome dissymmetry of lift

A

Flapping

34
Q

When blade flapping has compensated for dissymmetry of lift, the rotor disk is tilted to the rear is called?

A

Blowback

35
Q

What can the pilot do to compensate for dissymmetry of lift?

A

Cyclic feathering

36
Q

Effective tranlational lift (ETL) definition

A

The Rotor dick outruns the recirculation of old vortices and begins to work in relatively undisturbed air

37
Q

Airspeed for ETL

A

16-24 kts

38
Q

ETL causes relative wind to become more horizontal, resulting in:

A
  1. More vertical lift component 2. Less induced drag 3. Increased angle of attack
39
Q

Define Settling with power

A

A condition of powered flight in which the helicopter settles in it’s own downwash

40
Q

What conditions must exist simultaneously for sttling with power to occur

A
  1. Vertical or near vertical descent rate of at least 300 ft/min depending upon: - Gross weight- Rotor RPM- Density altitude 2. 20% - 100% of available engine power with insufficient power remaining to arrest the descent 3. Sow forward airspeed, less than ETL
41
Q

Settling with power recovery

A

Increase airspeed with forward cyclicReduce collective pitch as altitude permits

42
Q

Define Dynamic rollover

A

A helicopters susceptibility to a lateral rolling tendency

43
Q

Dynamic rollover conditions

A

Pivot pointRolling motionExceed critical angle

44
Q

Physical factors for dynamic rollover

A
  • Main rotor thrust - CG - Tail rotor thrust - Crosswind component - Ground surface - Sloped landing area - Low fuel condition
45
Q

Human factors

A
  • Inattention - Inexperience - Inappropriate control input - Failure to take timely corrective action - Loss of visual reference
46
Q

Recovery of dynamic rollover

A

A smooth moderate collective reduction

47
Q

Primary factor for retreating blade stall

A

Excessive airspeed

48
Q

Contributing factors for retreating blade stall

A
  1. High gross weight 2. High DA3. High “G” maneuvers 4. Low rotor RPM5. Turbulence
49
Q

Symptoms of retreating blade stall

A
  1. Abnormal vibrations 2. Pitch-up of nose 3. Tendency to roll toward the stalled (left) side 4. Loss of control (if corrective action is not applied)
50
Q

Corrective actions for retreating blade stall

A
  1. Reduce collective pitch 2. Regain aircraft control 3. Reduce airspeed 4. Increase rotor RPM to normal operating range 5. Minimize maneuvering 6. Descent to a lower altitude.
51
Q

Explain why hovering OGE requires more power than hovering IGE

A

Induced flow velocity is increased, causing a decrease in AOA. A higher blade pitch angle is required to maintain the same AOA as in IGE hover. The increased pitch angle also creates more drag. More power to hover OGE than IGE is required by this increased pitch angle and drag

52
Q

Weight and balance requirements:

A

The PC will ensure— (1) The accuracy of computations on the DD Form 365–4 (Weight and Balance Clearance Form F–Transport/ Tactical). (2) That a completed DD Form 365–4 is aboard the aircraft to verify that the weight and center-of-gravity will remain within allowable limits for the entire flight. Several DD Forms 365–4 completed for other loadings also may be used to satisfy this requirement. In this case, the actual loading being verified must clearly be within the extremes of the loading shown on the DD Forms 365–4 used for verification.

53
Q

What are the oxygen requirements in: 10.000 - 12.000 ft? 12.000 - 14.000 ft? +14.000 ft?

A

1 hour without extra oxygen 30 minutes without extra oxygen Oxygen required

54
Q

For how long can you fly over a layer of fog?

A

30 minutes

55
Q

Destination weather must be above minima for _____ after ETA

A

ETA + 1 hr

56
Q

Weather forecast void time:

A

1 hour 30 min

57

58
Q

Magnetic Heading definition

A

Measured clockwise to magnetic north nose of aircraft to proposed course

59

60
Q

DD 175 is what?

A

A

60 days

63
