120 -with you on that unless the engines don't give you the time to do that and fail almost in unison.

Flying Bull - glad you survived the patronising lecture from DB and now know how to suck eggs

Late at night, pushing fuel to minima, apparently operational imperatives to support - then both engines flameout in a hover with no place to go - chances of operating a shedbus switch in that scenario? Somewhere between nil and bugger-all.

Poor design unless that shedbus switch is on the collective and a lovely idea that recurrent training in the sim will make that any more survivable........just not realistic.

DB - just how many might EOLS have you actually done using your AI and Rad Alt theory?.........
