Robinson blade ties

Robinson tie downs have a bag on a rope that you slip over the end of the blade. Because Robinsons are 'working class' choppers there are no sophisticated blade catching devices like a tennis ball on a string or a hook.

On R22s you just reach up, grab the balde end & slip the bag on. R44s are bit more problematical. The ideal approach is to grab the nearest lightweight (teenage girls or waif thin catwalk models are the best) around the midriff & hoist them up to put the bag on. Always grab the chic from behind 'cause if you get 'em from the front the belly button jewellery can scratch your face!
