From: I am not sure where we are, but at least it is getting dark
On finals at 300ft, what manouver is likely to push the rotor through the tail boom?
From previous accident reports involving all sorts of helicopters:
Sudden control input trying to evade a bird. Pilot losing consciousness. Passenger interfering with controls. Control linkage failure. Blade failure. Pilot distracted by trying to close door, causing a low-g situation and roll. Low RPM blade stall for different reasons..... etc etc.
