John Eacott... for the benefit of the inexperienced, could you explain why pulling picth to stop the rotors is a no-no ?

I have been with a pilot with a squillion hours doing that as well as applying full left pedal in a 206 that had no rotor brake.

As the RPM was well below any value sufficient for lift, and owing to my inexperience I assumed this was a safe practice.

Your comments would be very welcome.

Thanks in advance,
FO
