I have just read through:
http://www.aaib.dft.gov.uk/cms_resou...pdf_024586.pdf
a report concerning an R22 lifting of during horn/light check with a subsequent roll over. The report states:
Since the reasons why the pilot had difficulty in maintaining and regaining control of the helicopter
stemmed from the friction applied to the collective and cyclic controls, it is recommended that the
Operator amends his procedures for the Low RPM check, after engaging the rotors, to reflect the
manufacturer's procedure.
In the checklist I use, I see no change in the frictions procedures. have they changed or am I misreading something?
Any advice and comments welcomed.
