Your examiner shouldnt be an examiner if in a test he requires you to do a vertical Take off to 100 ft. You obviously didnt bother to read my post properly did you. I was comparing 2 aircraft at the time, in the late 1980's YES the late 1980's please read the post.
Coming back to your beloved Beta11. Please do a vertical again to 100 ft and say to the examiner practice engine failure 3 2 1 go and see what he says. Oh yes by the way, why do we have to give that warning only in a Robinson product, in no other helicopter when you are examined ? Yes the Beta 2 is better than an Alpha or a Beta doesn't mean it is God's gift to the helicopter world as you seem to think. It has its place
