GeorgeMandes- thx for sharing us ur thoughts it's verry interesting

Jet Ranger-
fly into the wind and dont think to much. Just fly
in some cases especially in mountains flights, we can't terminate our approaches into the wind
during flight, we don't have to think to much-it's true- cz we don't have enough time to think, but if we want to return to our bases or helipads or whatever..safe, we have to think before every flight, and think a lot

crab- I appreciate that you are a good pilot maybe I didn't understand ur thought well now it's pretty clear
the only benefit of right cross wind is to provide more power when we operate in high gross weight, but the danger of left cross wind always exists especially in high density alt and high temp.
If we all agree with this consept, if we are operating in high alt/temp it's better to avoid T/R VRS and keep the wind to the right, and if we have high TOGW we have to take the risk of T/R VRS but to enforce the power with left cross wind? can we consider it true?
