Angels in response to your ”
.....now what happens when you sit on the right side of an Astar and go really fast..hmmmmm?” if you are talking about retreating blade stall you would eventually pitch up and roll right. If you sat in the left seat you would still roll right. It makes No difference where you fly from as far as aerodynamics are concerned. Long line pilots will routinely fly a B212 or a S61 from the left because the visibility during a hover is better. Now the MD530 is flown from the left….why is that?
