I may be the only remaining member of this forum who hasn't had a go yet, so here is my question.
In a prior life flying EMS in the BK117, a not too dissimilar aircraft, at about 1.5 NM from the pad at night I would be starting to slow things down, so I would not be in cruise. In an earlier post there was mention of arming floats, my question is if the approach was over water (river) to the pad and arming floats for that landing was SOP, what is close to the Floats Arm Switch on the panel/collective?
Obviously, if floats not required, this post is like many others and a waste of electrons.
