  Technique The maneuver requires a high degree of coordination of all controls. It is practiced at a height that permits a safe clearance between the tail rotor and the surface throughout the maneuver, especially at the point where the pitch ... into account the overall length of the helicopter and its height/velocity diagram. Even though the maneuver is called a rapid deceleration or quick stop, it is performed slowly and smoothly with the primary emphasis on coordination. During training, always perform…

  increasingly turbulent. This tends to push an aircraft into the side of a mountain. The stronger the wind, the greater the downward pressure and turbulence become. Figure 12-16. Turbulence in mountainous regions. Due to the effect terrain ... wind in valleys or canyons, downdrafts can be severe. Before conducting a flight in or near mountainous terrain, it is helpful for a pilot unfamiliar with a mountainous area to get a checkout with a mountain qualified flight instructor…

  Telling-and-Doing Technique The demonstration-performance method can be applied to the telling-and-doing technique of flight instruction in three steps. However, the telling-and-doing technique includes specific variations for flight instruction. [Figure 9-7] Figure ... This comparison of steps in the teaching process, the demonstration-performance method, and the telling-and-doing technique highlights similarities as well as differences. The main difference in the telling-and-doing technique is the important transition, learner tells—instructor…

Technique To maintain a hover over a point, use sideview and peripheral vision to look for small changes in the helicopter ... position; the pedals, to control heading. To maintain the helicopter in a stabilized hover, make small, smooth, coordinated corrections. As the desired effect occurs, remove the correction in order to stop the helicopter’s movement. For example, if the helicopter…

Changes in the pedal position will change the rpm and must be corrected by collective and/or throttle changes to maintain altitude. Figure ... least two reference points that help maintain a straight track over the ground while keeping a constant heading. To stop the sideward movement, apply cyclic pressure in the direction opposite to that of movement and hold it until the helicopter…
