Possible LTE? No idea about the weight/winddirection/DA conditions.
LTE only applies to the older B206 with the small tail rotor, and if it REALLY existed, the bird would emerge from "LTE" after maybe 90 -180 degrees of turn, when the relative winds have changed.

Bell spin from the early 70s, but still propagated today - how sad. Gurgle up Nick Lappos with his post about helicopter urban myths.
