pitch angle
- Definição1
- The acute angle between the chordline of the blades and a reference surface of the main rotor head.

- Definição2
- The angle between the chord line of the rotor blade and the reference plane of the main rotor hub or the rotor plane of rotation.

- Contexto
- The propeller blades form only one link in the chain of evidence, which, when coupled with other features such as pitch angle of the blades in relation to the known phase of operation at the time of the accident, the twisting, if any, in the propeller shaft and the condition of the engine and fuel valves, etc. may lead to sounder conclusions regarding the degree of engine power being developed at the time of impact.
- In the example shown below, on reaching 240 m (800 ft) above aerodrome elevation, the aircraft body angle/angle of pitch is decreased, the aeroplane is accelerated towards Vzf, and the flaps/slats are retracted on schedule.
