Iamthetroll - its 65 kts not 40. 40 is getting pretty slow! Had his been a 225 the heli would not have slowed below 65 kts had the pilots done nothing. But then, since the 225 is flown 4 axis pretty much all the time (in BHL anyway) it seems highly unlikely that a 3 axis approach would have been contemplated in the first place.

Rotorspeed - wrong question? Should read ...4-axis...if you want to relate it to this accident and the L2.
