Not being a heli driver (wish I was at times though) & this is just a question only could the floats be automatically deployed with no other input from the user when say an engine failure/neg torque occurs? Obviously they would still need to be armed say for over water ops or dissarmed for training. Just reading the posts here suggest that there may or may not have been time to deploy them in the usual fashion in this case.
And finally although this will no doubt bring some "oh no not that question again" responses where would one best start to seek a heli ticket in ML?
I'll do the research but just wanted some advice from the 'troops' first
