Compute arrival data if arrival conditions at destination have increased from the departure data for any of the following: a. Free air temperature of 5° C b. Pressure altitude of 500 feet c. Gross weight of 91 kgs or 200 lbs
50
What is Aircraft Basic Weight?

53
What is Aircraft Gross Weight?
The aircraft zero fuel weight plus fuel
54
What is Max Torque Available?
The maximum amount of power the engine can produce under the maximum environmental conditions while maintaining the rotor at the desired RPM.
55
What does the GO/NO GO TQ for IGE and OGE represent?
The GO/NO GO TQ for IGE and OGE represents the torque you could expect to see, at a 3-foot hover, if the aircraft weighed the computed Max GWT IGE/OGE.
56
What can make the aircraft actual hover torque be different from the Predicted Hover TQ?
The following can affect actual hover torqe: a. An increase or decrease in current free air temperature b. An increase or decrease in current pressure altitude c. An increase or decrease in aircraft gross weight d. Hovering of uneven terrain e. Hovering higher or lower than 3 feet f. A head wind or a tail wind
57
What does the H/V altitude provide?
A minimum OGE altitude at which a safe landing can be made under OEI
58
What would you expect the AEO cruise torque to be if an engine failed?
The OEI torque will be twice that of the AEO torque
59
What airspeed requires the least amount of power to maintain straight and level flight?
Max Endurance
60
What airspeed allows the aircraft to cover the most distance?
Max Range
61
What FLI would you expect to see while flying at Minimum or Maximum OEI airspeed while OEI?
12 FLI
62
What would happen if you tried to fly slower than Minimum or faster than Maximum OEI airspeed while und OEI?
The FLI would re-reference N1 or TOT and the rotor would drop below the desired RPM resulting in a loss of altitude.
63
What is Dynamic Rollover?
Dynamic Rollover is the susceptibility of a helicopter to a lateral rolling tendency.
64
What three conditions are required for dynamic rollover?
Pivot Point, Rolling Motion, and Exceeding the Critical Angle
65
What are the human factors to consider in prevention of dynamic rollover?
Inattention, inexperience, failure to take timely corrective action, inappropriate control input and loss of visual reference
66
What should you do to prevent Dynamic Rollover?
Making smooth and moderate collective inputs are most effective in preventing Dynamic Rollover.
67
What should you do in the onset of Dynamic Rollover?
A smooth and moderate collective reduction is recommended.
68
What are some common errors that lead to Dynamic Rollover?
Failure to detect lateral motion, abrupt cyclic displacements, large and /or uncoordinated pedal inputs, rapid collective inputs while performing slope landings and takeoffs are all common errors that lead to Dynamic Rollover.
69
What is Transverse Flow?
The difference in lift between the forward portion and the aft portion of the rotor system recognizable by a vibration, resulting in a right rolling motion due to gyroscopic precession.
70
When does Transverse Flow occur?
It occurs between 10 and 20 knots, most noticeably during takeoff but also during deceleration of landing.
71
What actions must a pilot take when Transverse Flow occurs?
Left cyclic input
72
What is Dissymmetry of Lift?
Dissymmetry of Lift is the difference in lift between the advancing half and the retreating half of the rotor system due to the difference of air velocity and surface area (no lift areas).
73
What are the no lift areas on the retreating side?
Reverse Flow, Negative Stall, Negative Lift and Positive Stall
74
How do you compensate for Dissymmetry of Lift?
Dissymmetry of Lift is compensated through blade flapping and cyclic feathering.
75
How does blade flapping compensate for Dissymmetry of Lift?
As the blade flaps up on the advancing half it results in a larger induced flow and smaller Angle of Attack. As the blade flaps down on the retreating side it results in a reduced induced flow and larger Angle of Attack.
76
Where does the blade have its maximum up flap velocity?
The 3-oclock position
77
Where does the blade have its maximum down flap velocity?
The 9-oclock position
78
How does the pilot prevent Blow Back?
Blow Back is prevented with forward cyclic (cyclic feathering)
79
What is Translating Tendency?
Translating Tendency is the tendency of a single rotor helicopter to drift in the direction of tail rotor thrust.
80
How does and aviator compensate for Translating Tendency?
An aviator compensates for Translating Tendency by tilting the rotor to the left with cyclic input.
81
When is Translating Tendency at its highest?
While at a hover or when a large collective application is made at the end of an approach.
