Several years ago, my instructor demo'd one for me at a 700' HOGE on my intro flight. Scared the sh*! out of me.......and I was hooked! I also saw one demo'd in an R22 (I was on the ground, he was at 500') by a brand spankin' new CFI with his very first student. I had just landed and he gave me the "hey watch this" on the radio. Scared the sh*! out of me again. I was sure he was (is?) going to ball it up.
