Avoid Area Curve
Hi, while teaching my trainees about the avoid area curve or the deadman's curve as it was known, i got an interesting doubt for which i could not get a satisfactory answer... hope you guys can help...
for a alouette helicopter (single engined) below the knee of the curve, at 100 feet of height the safe speed is 46kts but as you go higher, at 200 ft 46kts is within the unsafe region. How is it that with more height in hand we are still unsafe? during the discussion here... the most popular opinion seemed to be that it has got to do something with the crashworthiness of the aircraft????
any thoughts?
