As part of an airtest check the other day I got the pilot to fly some approaches which he has used use in the UK.
These entailed a 10-15 degree nose up attitude to flare off speed at 100' before entering a CAA to a HLS.
The surprising thing was that he had no idea about the effect of a single engine failure at the apex of an aggressive flare.
So when an engine was failed in the flare he was surprised why even after (harshly) putting the nose down (ITW) he would have crashed.
The aviod curve is there as a guide....harsh changes in attitude at the final stages of an approach are I suggest inadvisable.
The Lynx helicopter has a MINSELF of 65 kts in most hot climates....the effect of an engine failure on finals can be catastrophic...
In my mind the sight picture approach works equally as well for SE as well as ME pilots...
Any thoughts appreciated!
