YES at eng fail down collective AND flare!

Eyesout: widespread standard doctrine, so far as I've heard, simultaneous dump-and-flare. Cheap insurance against being too slow with dumping collective.

This was the subject of a recent safety article in one of the mainline helicopter magazines, I'll look for the reference but probably somebody else will beat me to posting it.
