You have just expressed your opinion and it differs from mine. Opinions are like a$$ h***s. Everybody has one. Because your opinion differs from mine does not make you right and me wrong. We differ in the details and you say that gyroscopic precession has nothing to do with helicopters but everything to do with spinning hockey pucks and toy gyroscopes. If you want to believe that and it works for you then it’s OK with me. Just accept that there are alternate theories for every subject. That’s why there are so many scientists and engineers. If there were only one theory to cover a given area of science we would still be trying to make gold from lead.
