I feel very sorry for Mr McRae and his family. I used to enjoy watching his old man race on TV.

Servo transparency / jack stall / control reversibility is often brought about by extreme manoeuvres. If that were the case, then we helicopter pilots will always have to live with the fact that, no matter whether we were specifically informed, trained, or experienced in certain emergency situations, if we can't recover, the authorities are likely going to point the figure towards pilot error.
