Time on type

Seems like the CAA (present in Durban when the accident happened) must need glasses or the indicent victim lied in his report. Had a chat to him and he says his logbook count shows just over 100 on type.

The flight manual is quite clear - read 3.6 - in the hover close the throttle and cushion the landing with collective. So what are the other things the guys should have known about.

By the way where is the CAA man - abroad on holiday or work or a PJ (private job).

Maybe the CAA action was correct - well in their minds - but why then has the issue suddenly brought information to light in the form of a booklet and an intended roadshow - tells me there is more.
