raqattack Posted March 23, 2006 Author Report Posted March 23, 2006 That precisely the idea Skids Up. Anything faster than transition will result in a run on landing on glassy water which is not recommended in a helicopter. If you are unsure of yourself, if possible, go to the nearest shoreline and momentarily land on the water next to the beach , check altimeter and head back out and slowly approach to a hover at 20 feet or so, works every time.
raqattack Posted March 23, 2006 Author Report Posted March 23, 2006 Well Trans, about the only thing I can say in reply to that gospel of sensitivity, is that the pilots not dead and you ought to try to read through the entire accident report, there are no blanks in the judgement.
Kyle Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Ok, I think your opinion has been clearly conveyed. When a thread gets shut down due to personal attacks, it does not mean you are welcome to immediately open another and continue on. If you are expecting to be banned from the forums and have taken this position when you are posting, well, I will grant your wish. I think for everyone's sake, there is a way to go about voicing your opinion. You obviously did not expect anything other than the types of replies you received. This topic is closed.
