What is the difference between a "collective" and "collectible"? The "collective" term is not one I have heard previously in this context (the term is usually used in the context of human organizations.

According to my dictionary at least, there does not appear to be a distinction between "collectible" and "collectable".

The "collective" is one of the three main Helo control elements. It is a lever on the side that controls the amount of lift by changing the main rotor's angle.

Wow, my mistake! I was thinking that "collective" was an improvised term for "collectible." I am now just a tad smarter!
