Rotorcraft Fundamentals, along with Water and Waste Systems.

Airframe (AMA) ASA Prepware Questions with ROTORCRAFT FUNDAMENTALS, ALONG WITH WATER AND WASTE SYSTEMS

The vertical flight of a helicopter is controlled by

collective pitch changes.

If a single

rotor helicopter is in forward horizontal flight, the angle of attack of the advancing blade is

What is the purpose of the free

wheeling unit in a helicopter drive system?

Movement about the longitudinal axis (roll) in a helicopter is effected by movement of the

cyclic pitch control.

A reduction in anti

torque thrust will cause the

Movement about the lateral axis (pitch) in a helicopter is effected by movement of the

cyclic pitch control.

The purpose in checking main rotor blade tracking is to determine the

relative position of the blades during rotation.

In rotorcraft external

loading, the ideal location of the cargo release is where the line of action passes

A helicopter in forward flight, cruise configuration, changes direction by

tilting the main rotor disk in the desired direction.

One purpose of the freewheeling unit required between the engine and the helicopter transmission is to

automatically disengage the rotor from the engine in case of an engine failure.

In a hovering helicopter equipped with a tail rotor, directional control is maintained by

varying the pitch of the tail rotor blades.

Wing dihedral, a rigging consideration on most airplanes of conventional design, contributes most to stability of the airplane about its

longitudinal axis.

Main rotor blades that do not cone by the same amount during rotation are said to be out of

track.

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?

Aircraft Type Certificate Data Sheet.

The auxiliary (tail) rotor of a helicopter permits the pilot to compensate for and/or accomplish which of the following?

Torque and directional control.

Which statement is correct concerning the torque effect on helicopters?

Torque direction is the opposite of rotor blade rotation.

What are the components used to heat water supply lines and waste water tanks?

Heater blankets and inline heaters.

The water waste tanks hold

gray water.
