I have to say I'm with Nick's last sentance.
I've been conditioned to treat a anti-torque failure as an immeadite auto condition, as at this pint I've not the skills (I may feel differently later on as I gain experience) to try to continue flight with the condition. Also, once established, adding small amounts of power as he stated withthe "glide extention" could be done.
But I love reading the varied respnses here on this thread !
Nick,
Tell us more about the Commanche!
Am I correct in that it is single stick for cyclic and you rotate it for tail inputs?
(this I have heard and cannot confirm)
It seems to be a joy to fly ..... I missed gettin gto see it when it was brought down to Ft. Laud beach.
I'd love to fly up to Vero to get a once over, but alas .....
