tilt rotor definition

tilt rotor means a power lift aircraft capable of vertical take-off, vertical landing and sustained low-speed flight which depends, principally, on engine-driven rotors mounted on tiltable nacelles for the lift during these flight regimes and on nonrotating aerofoil(s) for lift during high-speed flight;
