Another topic....how about a 40 kt auto at 90% RPM with an (almost) zero flare touch down.(all done into wind)
Mmmm, interesting. Relatively low r.o.d., no loading the disc at the bottom to increase rrpm before you cushion it so not much cushioning factor before the blades slow down too much. I would imagine a fair bit of skid bending without a lot of headwind. Done many constant attitude auto's at 40 kts and always needed to flare quite a bit at the end. Would the 90% rrpm eliminate the need for a flare??? Never tried it.
