Let's say you're flying in Bell 206 from 100ft AGL at 20 kts groundspeed and descending at something normal like 10 ft/sec. I'd assume to stop quickly the pilot would need to flair the helicopter to an "extreme" angle, may lose visibility with the ground? Something like 200 ft to stop and land sound right?
