Exaggerated movement of the cyclic, resulting in erratic movement over the surface. Figure 9-7. To maintain a straight ground track, use two reference points in line and at some distance in front of the helicopter. Failure to use proper ... antitorque pedal control, resulting in excessive heading change. 3. Failure to maintain desired hovering height. 4. Failure to maintain proper rpm. 5. Failure to maintain alignment with direction of travel. Hovering—Sideward Flight Sideward hovering flight may be necessary…

control or aircraft in the pattern. To avoid this, the instructor should only use concise prompting on approach to landings with the learner. Certain landings present unique risks. The instructor teaches the appropriate pre-landing reconnaissance for unfamiliar landing areas ... uncontrolled fields. During landings in strong winds, the instructor should have the skill sufficient to deal with the wind conditions. During a short-field or confined area landing, certain aircraft may fly at a slower approach speed. The instructor should…

Failure to make sure the area is clear prior to starting ... maneuver. Hovering—Rearward Flight Rearward hovering flight may be necessary to move the helicopter to a specific area when the situation is such that forward or sideward hovering flight cannot be used. During the maneuver, maintain a constant groundspeed, altitude…
- Chapter 2: Aerodynamics of Flight › Hovering Flight
Hovering Flight Hovering is the most challenging part of flying a helicopter. This is because a helicopter generates its own gusty air while in a hover, which acts against the fuselage and flight control surfaces. The end result is constant ... helicopter where it is required to be. Despite the complexity of the task, the control inputs in a hover are simple. The cyclic is used to eliminate drift in the horizontal plane, controlling forward, backward, right and left movement…
- Chapter 11: Helicopter Emergencies and Hazards › Dynamic Rollover › Precautions
When the upslope skid or wheel hits the ground, the dynamics of the motion can cause the helicopter to bounce off the upslope skid or wheel, and the inertia can cause the helicopter to roll about the downslope ground contact ... This movement may be uncontrollable. If the helicopter develops a roll rate with one skid or wheel on the ground, the helicopter can roll over on its side. Precautions To help avoid dynamic rollover: 1. Always practice hovering autorotations into…
