helicopter model simulated

B, takeoff from a hover for 

Level C and D). For Level 

B, the criteria apply only to 

those segments at air-

speeds above effective 

translational lift. Results 

must be recorded from the 

initiation of the takeoff to at 

least 200 ft (61m) AGL.

Ground/Takeoff; and Initial 

Segment of Climb. 

Record takeoff flight path as 

appropriate to helicopter 

model simulated. Results 

must be recorded from the 

initiation of the takeoff to at 

least 200 ft (61m) AGL. 

Because several kinds of 

takeoff procedures can be 

performed, the specific 

type of takeoff profile 

should be recorded to en-

sure the proper takeoff pro-

file comparison test is 

used.
