I have parked several times on top of a cliff. The blades would be just over the edge. The wind would keep the blades turning. So I did add some collective to get them to stop. It was a UH1H and it worked HOWEVER I can see flapping would be a consideration. I see no problem being gentle, left peddle and pay attention to the operators manual.
