Deadman's curve is a think you should pay attention to when flying pax or only from a to b.
Deadman's curve in helicopter work like: ag-flying, forestry or construction is something that may exist, but you woldn'd have a realistic chance for a landing without damage if something happens. And don't care if inside or outside the shaded area, underneath your chopper are either trees, rocks powerlines or other things you don't like to land on.
The shaded area is where the money is for pilots, owners and customers.

For my information what is the deadmans curve diagram for Robi's like.
Is it a big gray sheet of paper ?

Happy landings
