Thank you NRF, It's some time since I last read the bumff so relied on the little grey cells somewhat.
SSD, It's only an opinion when all's said and done. These machines appear to handle fundamentally differently from very light helis and a good study of the runes seems called for before embarking. Having read the accident reports over a thirty year period, I do think we re-discover repeatedly what our predecesors have already discovered. Some having paid the price for this knowledge, it seems feckless to ignore their experiences.
