Zero speed auto > Hover (without gaining airspeed)
My Roommate (who's recently got his CFI and therefore knows everything about flying there is to know) Was telling me his theory of how you could be in a zero airspeed auto, then recover to a hover just by pulling enough power fast enough.
He thinks that it is possible to 'power' his way out of it. I told him it seems to me he doesn't really understand the concept of SWP if he thinks that. I'm sure more experienced people than me can help convince him...
As I understand it, in autorotation the blade roots are stalled - any additon of power neccesitates up-collective (to prevent overspeed) which increases the stall/tip vortices etc and at zero A/S would send you straight into SWP.
