Justify briefly (1-2 lines)?
(a) A large lateral gust can be dangerous.
(b) An optimum rotor is a hypothetical rotor and can be used only as a benchmark to gauge the efficiency of a real rotor.
(c) A small pre-cone of 2 to 3 degree is given to hingeless rotors.
(d) A teetering rotor during descent (particularly in autorotation) can get into mast bumping.
(e) Conventional helicopters are limited to a max speed of say less than 175 knots
(f) Landing a helicopter on Himalaya is a challenging task.
