Widger: Absolute tripe I'm afraid. Nozzle Nudge is handy for gross fore and aft corrections in the hover and the MADGE will give you range and a nozzle setting cue from the ship and is a great ILS type aid at night/IMC. But these are aids to the approach to the ship and for corrections in the hover. The GR7/T10 is MUCH more stable in the hover than the FA2-ask anybody recently moved from Yeovilton to Wittering. The new aircraft have a modern stability augmentation system that makes it so. I know, I've flown both.
