Crab,
I am sorry about your friend. Any hint which accident that was?
Causes?
In case it was in an "unknown" helicopter, remember there are still plenty of "cowboy-R22s" out there with who knows how many hours!
"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."
That's why you have to keep the rotor (cylic) centered - you keep it with the body until the body is positve again, so it can react....
I am sorry for your experience in the R-22, but 13 hrs is not enough in a R-22. It is problably the one helicopter where you don't get away with a 5 hrs check-out.
It took me about 25 hrs until I got the autos down well....
Why your roll-over?
