heli,

You say she was not in an OGE hover, but that statement is wrong. She didn't INTEND to be in an OGE hover, but she "fell" into one, and the power and pedal requirements eluded her. The rest of the story has been called LTE, but it was much more insidious, and much more understandable for what it was - failure to maintain flying speed while doing donuts.
