Nr Fairy - no, not that old and I don't have a blanket dislike of teetering head helis - just the Robinson.

3Top - 13 hours and one rollover in R22. No the rotor can't do what it wants - I meant to imply that it would go where the pilot put it in an attempt to control the attitude and to highlight that the fuselage will not respond until normal G is resumed.

A few years ago the R22 claimed the life of a guy who I believe had 9000 hours on them so I figured if it could do for him then I would just leave them alone
