Thank you Whirley,

After reading your report, I feel like I have missed a good seminar, just a side issue, about 18 months ago a very high time intructor showed me the ability of the R22 to get down to well below 90% rotorspeed and was still able to fly and manouver before things would start to go to Rat S**t, must admit though I had alsorts of small , medium and very large goosebumps starting to appear all over my body and they didn't go till that blasted horn ceased, but it showed me that you would have to be able to ignore the horn totally as trouble approached, I have only had a low speed horn once and it was like a spear up my back my then instructor had slowly twisted the throttle off a little to see what I would do, That was enough for me
