RD, at the altitudes they are flying, there should be no problems hovering OGE.

But, if the pilot is not paying attention, and allows a decent to start due to a lack of power for the conditions, or a major brain fart, just lowering the nose will get the airspeed back and just fly away. Recovery should be 100' or less.

I think Blue Hawaiin is only flying A-Stars and EC130's. Both are great helicopters and comfortable.
