Arm otw (the huey drivers disease); sure, when you have one engine, you have only one option, but that can make things simpler. The saying in light (plank) twins (particularly piston) is that the second engine after an engine failure is there to carry you to the scene of the accident. Because of the second engine in a helicopter, it makes things more complex, and your options less defined. Therefore more training is needed, and better situational awareness lest you fly the oei beast into the ground.
I understand that the pay for a pilot in an s76 on aeromed is better than someone doing joyflights in a Robbo, but this difference seems to be company based. Is this correct? For example, what if you are a freelance pilot? What happens there?
I'd genuinely like to know what goes on.
