Question for Nick Lappos
Nick....as we all know the collective to yaw coupling in the S76 is there to reduce the pilot workload.....but in tail rotor emergencies things can get confusing...
What is the best method of getting back to terra firma with a FULL right pitch setting?
We have tried a few options including autorotation (75 knots) but the nose of the A/C never really aligns itself with the intended landing area and we end up doing an uncomfortable sideways (yawed right) flare.
If we try a high speed run-on we are faced with speeds of 100 knots + and it doesn't look like the result will be too successful.
What do you think?
