  incoming wind gained by horizontal movement of the aircraft or surface wind. As the incoming wind produced by aircraft movement or surface wind enters the rotor disk, turbulence and vortices are left behind and the flow of air becomes more…

  Glossary

  density of air decreases with altitude above the surface of the earth and with increasing temperature. Aircraft pitch. The movement of the aircraft about its lateral, or pitch, axis. Movement of the cyclic forward or aft causes the nose ... helicopter to pitch up or down. Aircraft roll. The movement of the aircraft about its longitudinal axis. Movement of the cyclic right or left causes the helicopter to tilt in that direction. Airfoil. Any surface designed to obtain a useful…

  Begin the takeoff by getting the helicopter light on the skids (position 1). Pause and neutralize all aircraft movement. Slowly increase the collective and position the cyclic to lift off in a 40-knot attitude. This is approximately the same…

  Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Axes of an Aircraft

  axis is “pitch,” and the motion about its vertical axis is “yaw.” Yaw is the left and right movement of the aircraft’s nose. The three motions of the conventional airplane (roll, pitch, and yaw) are controlled by three control ... these controls is explained in Chapter 6, Flight Controls. Other types of aircraft may utilize different methods of controlling the movements about the various axes. For example, weight-shift control aircraft control two axes (roll and pitch) using…
