Glad to see my scenerio has sparked some interest. and obviously there are a few James Bond fans out there as well. I would just like to thank you all for your comments. I didn't obviously think it was feasable justt watching all the lights on the annunciator panel going out in a row.

Just one question though, how low can the rotor speed drop that would allow recovery bearing in mind that altitude would be a limiting factor. as i have read of many accidents caused by unrecoverable loss of rotor rpm. although this normally happens at low altitudes limiting the time for recovery in situations such as mustering.

The AS350 slicing up the street in China.
Ascend Charlie, I think it was an AS355.
Thank you again for all your comments.
John
