My first ever student on his first ever helo ride got sick all over the place. He asked me to take control and I asked him was he alright, he then answered by getting sick out the door. Of course in the helo(with the doors off) all of the vomit flew back into the cockpit and all over the instruments and me!!
I promptly kicked the aircraft out of trim but it was too late. I sat it down and let him clean himself up and then headed back to the airport. I helped him clean up(if he was an arrogant person I would have let him do it himself but he was a nice guy). Plus I felt pretty bad for him because he was really embarassed. That was his last flight unfortunately.
In this situation I didn't have time to try and get him to look outside and distract him.I would have got him to get sick down into his tee shirt to save the cockpit. It was a memorable first instructional flight for me though!!
