Good input, Donut King!

Xnr, The auto thing with a stuck right tail rotor is interesting. I don't know if it would fully trim at 80 knots in auto at 90% Nr but it would be very close. With a flare and some transmission drag moving the nose left, the landing is OK, in my opinion. The normal auto has a 90% touchdown or so, so I think it all works out nicely.

The Cat A landing needs more time than I have right now, because there are several procedures.
