Lu, you mention that R is just covering his a**s, are the other ones doing that by not mentioning anything in this respect at all?
The make and or manufacturer of an aircraft or helicopter make no difference. If the manufacturer puts something in his POH no matter how subtle if there is an accident and it can be proven that the pilot had not followed the POH his ass is grass and the FAA/NTSB is the lawnmower.
That is all I have to say on this matter. If you can not see my point then as they say “Fate is the hunter”
