wish I could unsee someone hanging off a rotor blade. The 24 has an articulating head, the droop stops have what... a... 100:1 moment arm to the weight suspended off the end of the blade. the guy weights X, the force on the stop is 100 x X... hope they checki ti out thoroughly before goign aviating.

turning a blade backwards... ack.
