DJ,
You stated or attributed a statement in an earlier post that helicopters are inefficient.
I am sure as a customer looking for a machine that I would look for alternatives to helicopters if this was the case. It is not.
Todays helicopters are as efficient as they can be as the state of the art develops.
You argue that nobody wants change yet millions are spent trying to get that little bit more out of the machine by the manufacturers to make the customer buy their product.
I have yet to fly a helicopter that has been inefficent at what I have asked it to do.
My many clients must think as I do.
Some of your theory needs a bit of brushing up also. (too much to go into here).
