Quite a rare but instructive video of how quickly LTE bites if the chopper is slow and the wind is wrong and there's very little height to recover from except try and do one or more of the following:
1. closing the throttle and reducing collective
2. "milk" the collective
3. flying into the direction of the turn
4. doing an auto once there is any airspeed
but I think none of these would work for this poor guy.
It's all very easy to say one should never get oneself into this position but what other escape methods does one have ? I'd be keen to hear from anyone who has done extensive research into this area (as I have) or has been through a similar situation.
Thanks in advance.
