SL has Arrived
Many thanks guys i have now received the SL concerned but don't let that stifle any debate you wish to have about LTE and TR Failures. I guess an LTE event holds some possibility of recovery and perseverance may be the order of the day but in the context of mechanical failure we teach lower the collective fully immediately and if the circumstances (altitude) give you time to reconsider then maybe the decision can be reviewed.
It is undoubtedly a quandary when close to the ground. Is it LTE? or mechanical failure? Me? I would rather bang it down early and minimise the dynamics. They can always buy me another machine but the co pilot and I and anyone else aboard would probably appreciate a few scrapes rather than a wooden box.
