  surface, reduce the collective to full down, and neutralize the cyclic and pedals (frame 4). Normal operating rpm should be maintained until the full weight of the helicopter is on the landing gear. This ensures adequate ... immediate takeoff in case the helicopter starts sliding down the slope. Use antitorque pedals as necessary throughout the landing for heading control. Before reducing the rpm, move the cyclic control as necessary to check that the helicopter is firmly…

  travel are controlled by the cyclic. After receiving the proper clearance and ensuring that the area is clear of obstacles and traffic, begin the maneuver with the collective in the down position and the cyclic in a neutral position ... landing gear, apply appropriate antitorque pedal to maintain aircraft heading. Continue to apply pedals as necessary to maintain heading and coordinate the cyclic for a vertical ascent. As the helicopter slowly leaves the ground, check for proper attitude control response…

  neutral or a stuck right pedal is a low-power approach terminating with a running or roll-on landing. The approach profile can best be described as a shallow to normal approach angle to arrive approximately 2–3 feet landing ... gear height above the intended landing area with a minimum airspeed for directional control. The minimum airspeed is one that keeps the nose from continuing to yaw to the right. Upon reaching the intended touchdown area and at the appropriate…

  Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Weight and Balance › Effect of Load Distribution

  Steering difficulties on the ground may occur in nosewheel-type aircraft, particularly during the landing roll and takeoff. The effects of load distribution are summarized as follows: • The CG position influences the lift and AOA of the wing, the amount ... relationship to elevator control force. • The aircraft stalls at a higher speed with a forward CG location. This is because the stalling AOA is reached at a higher speed due to increased wing loading. • Higher elevator control forces normally exist…

  when on the final approach just prior to landing. When slowed to 65 knots, (1.3 VSO), the airplane will be close to point C. [Figure 4-14] At this point, precise control of the pitch and power becomes more crucial ... neutral since the speed tends to remain at the new value and not return to the original setting. In addition to the need for more precise airspeed control, the pilot normally changes the aircraft’s configuration by extending landing flaps…
