Lu is STILL not listening!

FAR 27.351 (and all other FAR/JAR) does NOT call for any testing of full pedal inputs!

The FAR that Lu incorrectly reads says:
"Sec. 29.351 Yawing conditions.
(a) Each rotorcraft must be DESIGNED FOR THE LOADS RESULTING FROM the maneuvers specified..."

Lu, I made the words bigger so even you can read them. That is a design condition, so the designer calculates the loads due to the hypothetical maneuver, and then makes sure the helicopter can stand the loads. It is not flown! I met with an international committee three weeks ago to discuss this paragraph in FAR/JAR and help re-write it, so I THINK I know what it says.

I cannot make you understand it, however, that is a lost cause. Please do not mislead the group into thinking that such abuse is tested, because it is not, and your foolish misunderstanding (after having been told several times) might cause someone to go and do it.

You are dense, Lu, to not even read or understand what YOU post!
