Autorotation

Thanks Mostofa,

Worked out what ROD meant but could not work out +34 with DA of +2000ish to PA... it sounds bad especially if DA means descent angle!!

Could you possibly explain it for me? We don't get so specific on the models yet, though now many systems do incorporate telemetry of which one is rotor speed...... usually the only way to spot a forced autorotate is by a silence or speedy unplanned pirouette, at which point it becomes a judgement!

Thanks, sorry not to know of such vocabulary whilst posting here!
