Didn't the Canadians call it the 'bear trap'?
I always found landing the Lynx easy, even in rough sea states, it's very responsive and, due to the semi rigid rotor head, very stable and quick to follow the cyclic inputs.
The Sea Pig on the other hand was far more tricky to land well in a rough sea state and putting it onto the UK Carriers in rough weather between operating spots was always sporty. The problem with the Sea King was that it tended to 'hang' under the rotor disc and pivot after the cyclic input making it essential to judge where it was going to be before it got there!!!
Ahhh, the good old days when the Policemen were older and there were carefree winds in the world!
