AndyJB32,
what ever happened to "flying the aircraft first"? I'm inclined to agree more with wg13 when it comes to entering autorotation. Your harsh flare is not only going to bleed a fair amount of energy off (negating the flare effect you're after), but you are now limiting your options on range aswell. I would suggest that a coordinated entry into autorotation, whilst picking a field is going to give you more options and greatest time to pull off that peach of landing if, heaven forbid, it should all go quiet on you
. Remember, once it drops below that critical point, no amount of flare is going to get it back. Think "smooth" baby
. Happy landings,
RotP
