Article: Read your individual aircraft's operating handbook. Here are some of the basic controls you'll need to know to operate the helicopter: The collective is the lever mounted on the cabin floor to left side of the pilot's seat. The throttle is the twistable grip at the end of the collective. The cyclic is the "stick" located directly in front of the pilot's seat. The tail rotor is controlled by the two pedals on the floor also known as anti-torque pedals. The majority of accidents are caused when the rotor system gets overloaded. Most usually this occurs when pilots attempt maneuvers that require lift in excess of what the rotor system can produce or power-plant can provide. Raise the collective to make the helicopter rise, and lower it to make it go down. The collective changes the main rotor's blade angle collectively. The main rotor is on top of the helicopter. Adjust the throttle. As you raise the collective, you need to increase engine speed. Decrease speed as you lower the collective. Throttle is directly linked to the position of the collective lever so that the RPM is always in line with the collective setting. You will only need to make adjustments when necessary. The cyclic is similar to a joystick, but sensitive, so make very small movements. Push the cyclic forward to move forward, back to move backward, and to either side to travel sideways. The cyclic does not change the direction in which the front of the helicopter points, but it does cause the helicopter to tilt forward and back (pitch) or to the right and left (roll). These two pedals (or anti-torque pedals) control the direction in which the helicopter is pointing, more or less having the same effect as the yaw pedals in an airplane. Gently increase pressure on the left pedal to swing the nose left, or increase pressure right to swing the nose right. The yaw pedals increase or decrease the force that the tail rotor produces, thereby controlling the yaw. Without a tail rotor to counteract main rotor torque, the helicopter will naturally spin in the opposite direction of the main rotor.

Familiarize yourself with the helicopter components and controls. Understand the helicopter's capabilities and limitations. Operate the collective control with your left hand. Operate the cyclic control with your right hand. Operate the tail rotor pedals with your feet.
Article: With a pastry blender or fork, cut the butter into the flour until it forms tiny balls with the flour. Then slowly add the water. with floured hands until a large dough ball forms. Split the ball in half and wrap one of the pieces in plastic wrap. Place the wrapped dough in the refrigerator. An alternative is to wrap both of the dough balls and refrigerate them for 30 minutes before proceeding to the next step. Make a circle shape about 2 inches (5.1cm) larger in diameter than the pie pan. Some people prefer to place a layer of plastic wrap on top of the dough as it's being rolled so that it wouldn't stick to the rolling pin. Do this by wrapping the dough completely around the rolling pin. Fit it into the pan, pressing it against all the sides. Leave about 14 inch (0.6cm) of extra dough over the pie pan. Peel and slice the apples into pieces about 1/8 of an inch thick or chop them into 1/2" cubes. Put them into a large bowl and mix with sugars (white and brown), salt, lemon juice, flour, nutmeg and cinnamon. Drain apples for 20 minutes and then heat the liquid produced along with 3 cubes of butter in the microwave until it's reduced to third of its volume and becomes thicker (prevents a soggy crust). Sliced top. Gently fold it in half and make 4 to 5 half inch long slices along the fold and 4 slices in the center of the folded piece. These will allow the filling to breath and not break through the sides. Unfold the top crust set it aside. Lattice top. Cut the rolled out dough into as many 1" wide strips as it will yield. Spread it out with the back of a spoon. There should be enough filling to fill the entire pan and stack up above the edge at least an inch in the center. Sliced top. Lay the sliced top crust over filling. Cut off the excess edges with a butter knife. Take both thumbs facing each other and place them over the edge. Push thumbs down and towards each other. Do this around the entire pie to seal it. Lattice top. Place the pastry strips across the top of the apples in a criss-cross pattern, then weave them together to create a lattice effect. Cut off the overhanging excess pastry and press the edges down into the rim as previously described. This will help to brown the crust. Dust cinnamon and sugar over the top crust for an extra touch. Turn down the oven to 375F (190C) for 45 minutes. Remove when top crust is golden brown.

Preheat the oven to 400F (200C). Make sure you have a clean, spacious counter top available for kneading and rolling out the dough. Place the flour, salt, and butter in a large bowl. Knead Begin to roll the dough out on a floured counter-top. Lift the flattened dough off the counter-top slowly. Unroll the dough over the pan, being careful not to let it tear. Cut off the overhanging edges. Place the pie shell in the refrigerator. Make the filling. Roll out the remaining ball of dough on a floured surface, just like you did before. Remove the pie shell and filling from the refrigerator. Pour the filling into the pie shell. Brush the edges of the pie shell with a beaten egg. Lay the top crust over the pie. Sprinkle milk over the top or brush the lattice with the egg wash. Bake at 400F (200C) for 15 minutes. Allow the pie to cool for 45 minutes to one hour at room temperature before serving. Finished.
Article: Mix 1 can of tuna with 12 cup (0.12L) of mayonnaise and spread it and 14 cup (0.059L) of shredded cheese over a tortilla. Fold the tortilla in half and heat one side over a lightly greased skillet, then flip the tortilla after 3-5 minutes to cook the other side. You can use any kind of shredded cheese with this meal, but most recipes call for cheddar cheese. Cook boxed macaroni and cheese over a stove top and add the cheese sauce as directed by the box. After adding the cheese sauce, stir in a can of tuna and serve when thoroughly mixed. You can also add a can of tuna to homemade mac and cheese for a complex, cheesy meal. Mix a can of tuna salad with 12 cup (0.12L) of mayonnaise and lemon juice to taste. Chop a cucumber and top each slice with tuna, diced tomatoes and green onions, and a sprinkle of paprika. Combine a can of tuna with a diced avocado and add a diced tomato, a chopped celery stalk, and the juice from 1/2 of a squeezed lemon. Divide the mix in half and fill either a bowl or the 2 halved avocado shells to serve. If you're following the Paleo diet, this recipe is Paleo-friendly. You can also stuff cooked zucchini with this recipe and top with cheese for a warm, equally healthy snack. Crack 4 eggs in a pan and cook over high heat while mixing continuously. When you have scrambled the eggs, add a can of tuna, 1.75 tablespoons (25.9mL) of olive oil, a diced onion, and oregano to taste and fry for 4-5 minutes before serving. This meal pairs especially well with fried potatoes when eaten for breakfast.
