If you can't figure out what's going on when you raise the collective and the opposite of what you expect to happen, happens, and you don't know how to react, find another line of work.
Funny you say that, because in most VRS accidents I read, the pilots did just that. They did not realise what was going on. You know, that brain of ours is very easy to confuse. We have some really bad issues with fixation.
I already said Airbus don't want you to practice VRS in flight.
You did? And I thought I brought that Safety Notice up. Silly me.
Don't hold your breath waiting for any "scientific papers" be written on this because it's not going to happen.
See, we agree on something already. That's exactly what I told Crab a few posts ago.
Anyway, I just ordered a paper on flapping in VRS written not so long time ago. We will see what comes of it.
