Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following would NOT be included in the maximum internal weight of a helicopter?

Pilot

Cargo stored in aft of helicopter

Useable fuel

An object supported by a winch

The maximum internal weight of a helicopter includes all items that are carried within the helicopter's internal cabin space and contribute to its overall loading. This encompasses the pilot, cargo stored in the fuselage, and usable fuel that powers the aircraft.

When considering the option of an object supported by a winch, it is important to note that items being lifted or lowered by a winch mechanism are not considered part of the internal load of the helicopter. These items are external to the helicopter's cabin and, for the purpose of internal weight calculations, would not be factored into the maximum internal weight limit. The winch's load is handled differently, as it is part of the helicopter's external capabilities and does not contribute to the internal load limitations being assessed.

Thus, the correct answer is that an object supported by a winch would not be included in the maximum internal weight of a helicopter.
