For 110 KIAS, the bank angle limit is greater than how many degrees?

• A. 40 degrees
• B. 50 degrees
• C. 55 degrees
• D. 45 degrees

Answer: (D)

At 110 KIAS, bank angle limits are set so the helicopter can safely execute turns without overstressing the rotor system. As airspeed increases, the published limit becomes more permissive, allowing a larger bank before hitting structural or rotor limits.

So, the bank angle limit at 110 KIAS is greater than forty-five degrees. This means you can safely bank beyond forty-five degrees up to the published limit for that speed and condition. The lower thresholds are not as informative because the actual limit sits above them, and the higher numbers describe a bound that isn’t the minimum you can rely on at this speed.
