Hi all,
Back from my trip, I can see some great discussion goin on on this one!
TN,
I'm in the same opinion, not too much time, however if you are caught off guard there are options mentioned, the slight aft ccylic as in a flare will add RPM back, may not reverse the trend, etc ...
I think the thing I commit myself to is that if there is any question or feeling of something not right with the aircraft, my left hand descends instinctively as I make an assessment. If nothing wrong, can't hurt too much.
I wholeheartedly agree with those who say the Auto itself is determined by the entry, especially in the robbie. If you get a decent entry established, then you are halfway there. Doesn't matter (in real life) if you smack the bird where it isn't recoverable, point is so you are ... JMO.
I also wouldn't fly with anyone wanting to do low RPM experiments, they pay the test poilot enought to do that for us, I'll take the limits set already, only forgoing it for the low RPM recovery demo for the checkride. Why tempt fate eh?
Nr = Life (in my book).
