A.agincourt - the use of b**llocks might have been a bit harsh but your posts are somewhat random in their content and you are the one who took us in this direction in the first place by criticising me (when I was just trying to help someone else), not the other way round.
540 and the original post on this thread were talking about very low speed or even vertical autorotations to an EOL yet you have started on about zero speed touchdowns which is not the same thing at all. You have your ideas about P of F (your hint at Boscombe implies a TP course) which are at odds with the mainstream view - if you really are so knowledgeable then please pass on that wisdom so we might all learn, but please do include some references.
Your theory (I call it that because you were the one arguing the case) is that cyclic pitch change causes a permanent decay in Nr - Shawn (who is a TP) says not.
I know that the P of F we teach is not the whole truth, it is a convenient explanation for what we know happens in the real case. However, it serves its purpose well since the alternative is many pages of greek flute music and other hard sums that make your head hurt.
As for the rather childish reference to other threads then I suppose you must be a SAR expert as well
540 - you are correct, if you try a vertical autorotation all the way to the ground and therefore have only the energy left in the head to save you, you will bend the aircraft rather badly.
