MD902 "Rotor Tail Fault"
"A rotor tail fault, which can cause a sudden drop in height, is understood to be the cause of the scare." Quote of the week from the BBC News website I feel!!
As I've not got much experience of helicopters, can someone explain to me:
1, What is a rotor tail? (I expect that they mean tail rotor) - see next point.
2,If the MD902 is NOTAR, where's the rotor tail?
3, How does "a rotor tail fault" cause a sudden loss of height?
Ah bless the BBC, they're the envy of the rest of the world you know! Pah!!
