Does our 'engineer' drive one of those 'dangerous' cars that allow the driver to turn the steering wheel the wrong way and drive off cliffs.

The control is in your hand - you chose what you do with it.

I'd rather fly something which was mechanically sound. The Robinson - sadly for it's detractors does have the most remarkably good mechanical saftey record.

It is really a pilot choice issue if the pilot wants to fly into mountains or bump his mast.
