Abstract
A window assembly with a frame and a sash mounted to tilt open relative to the frame includes a tilt control to prevent a free fall opening of the sash. The tilt control provides a resistance to the tilt opening of the sash. The sash applies a force on the tilt control as the sash is tilted open. The force increases the farther the sash is tilted open. The resistance provided by the tilt control also increases the farther the sash is tilted open to compensate for the increased force applied on the tilt control.
