I would like to know if it is convinient, worth it and smart to ask my flight school or Chief Pilot to train Autorotations with the engine actually off and to train manual RRPM skills (i.e. Governor Off).

The Pilot's Operating Handbook states " Flight is prohibited with governor selected off, with the exceptions for in-flight system malfunction or emergency procedures training"

The reason for me wanting to train this way is to get comfortable in hazardous conditions and learn how to really identify the incipient stages of both emergency situations.

thanks again,

A
Which aircraft?
