Abstract
An aircraft includes an airframe having an aircraft longitudinal axis and a main rotor system supported by the airframe. The main rotor system is rotatable about an axis of rotation. The airframe is tiltable relative to a ground surface to form a non-zero tilt angle between the aircraft longitudinal axis and the ground surface.
