Autorotation, like all flying related things, is all about style! Enter auto, pick the big the tennis courts at the sixth form girls school, put out a short Mayday call so you sound calm and in control, Flare, Check, level, grease her onto the ground then walk over to the crowd of eager girlys to collect some phone numbers while the crewman rings for a taxi!


Or more likey........... Swear, enter auto, swear a bit more, pick the big green field and pray its not boggy or on a slope, swear at Mr Bell, scream MAYDAY and your callsign on any freq trying not to swear, flare, swear some more, check, final bit of swearing, level, thump her on to the ground, thank God/Allah/Mr Bell, then walk over to the farmer and start explaining why you just scared his cows and give him your Sqn ops number while the crewman gets the fire axe!
