8212. The auxiliary (tail) rotor of a helicopter permits the pilot to compensate for and/or accomplish which of the following?
Torque and directional control
8213. The vertical flight of a helicopter is controlled by
collective pitch changes
8214. A reduction in ani-torque thrust will cause the
tail to pivot in the direction of torque rotation around the main rotor axis
8215. In rotorcraft external-loading, the ideal location of the cargo release is where the line of action passes
through the center of gravity at all times
8216. The acute angle formed by the chord line of a wing and the relative wind is known as the
angle of attack
8217. A helicopter in forward flight, cruise configuration, changes direction by
tilting the main rotor disk in the desired direction
8218. The purpose in checking main rotor blade tracking is to determine the
relative position of the blades during rotation
8219. In a hovering helicopter equipped with a tail rotor, directional controls is maintained by
varying the pitch of the tail rotor blades
8220. if a single-rotor helicopter is in foward horizontal flight, the angle of attack of the advancing blade is
less than the retreating blade
8221. Main rotor blades that do not cone by the same amount during rotaiton are said to be out of
track
8222. One purpose of the freewhelling unit required between the engine and the helicopter transmission is to
automatically disengage the rotor from the engine in case of and engine failure
8223. Which statement is correct concerning torque effect on helicpoters?
Torque direction is the opposite of rotor blade ratation
8224. What is the pupose of the free-wheeling unit in a helicopter drive system?
It disconnects the rotor whenever the enginne stops or slows below the equivalent of rotor RPM
8225. Movement about the longitudinal axis (roll) in a helicopter is effected by movement of the
cyclic pitch control
8226. Movemetn about the lateral axis (pitch) in a helicopter is effected by movement of the
cyclic pitch control
