Regardless KENNY, we paid for your licence and not all you guys are as flash as you think. Fact.
I never had a problem with the R22. As for dealing with low rotor inertia...so what? If it is all you know then why is it such a problem. Single pilot in a robbie leaves plenty of power reserve for all training and while with an instructor you are learning great aircraft control and handling for the real world. Flying aircraft around with ample amounts of power in reserve for training purposes is teaching a student nothing. The robbie is the worlds best trainer, full stop.
The 47 is a great ship and should be used for the benefit of throttle to RRPM correlation. Otherwise, I think a licence should be endorsed as "automatic" only (like your car...) because it is terribly embarressing and dangerous for a robbie pilot to do a basic rating in the 47 and then try to fly it for a living. The lack of governor OFF training shows up like dogs balls.
Its akin to the first world war pilots... if you survive the first two weeks you might just make it.
