tail wind approaches on helicopter

Mmmmmmmmm ???

1 If you know your downwind
2 If you keep checking you have enough Aft cyclic (to slow down)
3 You have checked the Power available and know you have enough. ( to stop the R o D )

YOU WON,T HAVE A PROBLEM.

The problems happen when the pilot either:
1 Doesn,t realise he,s downwind
2 Lets a High RoD develop
