Good point - given deliberate rollovers when auto-rotating an aluminium machine into water often end up with a spectacular departure of the main gear box and rotorhead - sometimes through the cabin
Does anyone know where they manufacture the carbon fibre components - I assume that Hi-Modulus (now bought out by Swiss company Gurit?) on the North Shore have helped them?
