What Does PCA Stand For?
PCA stands for Pitch Control Assembly
PCA, or Pitch Control Assembly, refers to a crucial component in aviation and aerospace systems that regulates the pitch angle of an aircraft's control surfaces or rotor blades. This assembly plays a significant role in ensuring stable flight dynamics, enabling precise maneuverability and improved performance during various phases of flight. By adjusting the pitch, the PCA helps optimize lift and drag characteristics, contributing to safety and efficiency in aircraft operations.
