Not sure why the attitude - it was an
honest and sincere question. And to be clear
all I was asking was "
WHY is the number
57 knots mentioned in the R22 POH as the minimum, as opposed to 60, 53, etc" I wasn't talking about what you or anyone else ACTUALLY does in turbulence, I was just hoping the vast cumulative hours of experience and knowledge that comes from the pilots that use this forum might help me find the answer...
I had posted the same question on another forum where
Raven5 posted an answer that to me, made perfect sense and answered the question of why
57 kts and so I posted the response - simple as that - I hope that addresses your
"You seem bent on feinting with a question then supplying the answer"
As for your accusation of
"that's all gobbledegook" and
"supplying the answer which may or may not have substance" - I truly thought it was correct, but did say "I have been given what
I think is the definitive answer to the original question...". The answer was also confirmed by other posters on other forums.
But to make sure I called Robinson Helicopters in California and
they confirmed that is
EXACTLY the reason the
57 KIAS is in there. Enough substance for you?
I got to say I come to this forum for respectful advice, so I respectfully quote you TopEndTorque when I say "Give us a break mate!" [insert Australian accent]
