As you seem to be PPrune's resident Lift Pixie SME, could you explain how they work in helicopeters? How do they ever manage to stay on the fast-whirling blades - do they perhaps wear little velcro booties? Obviously from what you have already said, the traditional teachings of rotary P of F are just pure bunkum...

Yours in anticipation,
