Mast Bumping Article

back on topic today in the auto rotation section he mentioned what happens if you jam in left pedal by mistake at entry. now i may miss some bits or get it wrong, im only a fresh faced newbie, but as left goes in ac rolls left out of trim. relative airflow (plus stalling blades too??) creates a right rolling movement that inverts the aircraft.. and this poor chap in ely landed upside down it appears???
