|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
tilting the main rotor disk in the desired direction.
|| || || || || || || ||
7- The purpose in checking main rotor blade tracking is to determine the - ✔✔A-
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
relative position of the blades during rotation.
|| || || || || ||
8- In a hovering helicopter equipped with a tail rotor, directional control is
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
maintained by - ✔✔C- varying the pitch of the tail rotor blades.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
9- If a single-rotor helicopter is in forward horizontal flight, the angle of attack of the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
advancing blade is - ✔✔C- less than the retreating blade.
|| || || || || || || || ||
, 10- Main rotor blades that do not cone by the same amount during rotation are said to
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
be out of - ✔✔C- track.
|| || || || || ||
11- One purpose of the freewheeling unit required between the engine and the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
helicopter transmission is to - ✔✔A- automatically disengage the rotor from the
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
engine in case of an engine failure.
|| || || || || ||
12- Which statement is correct concerning torque effect on helicopters? - ✔✔C-
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
Torque direction is the opposite of rotor blade rotation
|| || || || || || || ||
13- What is the purpose of the free-wheeling unit in a helicopter drive system? - ✔✔A-
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
It disconnects the rotor whenever the engine stops or slows below the equivalent of
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
rotor RPM. ||
14- Movement about the longitudinal axis (roll) in a helicopter is effected by
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
movement of the - ✔✔B- cyclic pitch control. || || || || || || ||
15- Movement about the lateral axis (pitch) in a helicopter is effected by movement of
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
the - ✔✔B- cyclic pitch control.
|| || || || ||
16- Wing dihedral, a rigging consideration on most airplanes of conventional design,
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
contributes most to stability of the airplane about its - ✔✔A- longitudinal axis.
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
17- Other than the manufacturer maintenance manual what other document could be
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
used to determine the primary flight control surface deflection for an imported aircraft
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
that is reassembled after shipment? - ✔✔A- Aircraft type certificate data sheet.
