WWIII,
not sure if it is your english skills or mine, but please re-read my post and tell me where I advocated entering autorotation at a low altitude. On the contrary, I said rarely will you have the altitude to accomplish this......or at least that was what I intended to say.
I was responding to Shawn's post, hence the quote. If you do re-read my post, the first thing I said in response to him was "All true"........meaning his description of how to extricate oneself from VRS was correct. My comment was in response to his "no need to enter autorotation".......which again, with my first statement "All true" I agreed with.
However, just to clarify, that if by chance you were at a high enough altitude, say during a training exercise demonstrating VRS, by lowering the collective into autorotation, you would no longer be in VRS. Simply stating an aerodynamic fact.
