The AAC used to teach it on the basic course at Middle Wallop, and then reinforce the lessons for those boys in NI who sat at night in the hover over Belfast. However, the RAF controlled Defence Helicopter Flying School started in 1997 using the old 2FTS syllabus, and the lesson was not replicated. Anyway, it is probably an impossible state to get into with a light weight Squirrel.
