In a Hughes 500 made the mistake of leaving P2 collective in ( remember left hand drive ) Jump master sitting in the front gave thumbs up to 3 in back to get on skids, he leans out then sits back down very quickly onto P2 collective.
Result an immediate autorotation, 3 jumpers fall off skids, an unexpected yaw and some very firm words with JM !!!!
