DB:
You're nearly there - one more hurdle and that is have some humility and accept that not only are you now saying it (see below), but you might even be believing it:
However, being a fair man I will offer you a chance to withdraw that statement and agree that the number one priority is to safely establish into autorotation....followed by assessing your options
Surely SAS you must agree that the most efficient and sensible way to recover decayed NR is to flare. If you do not have the speed to flare you are in deep do do.
Think about that for a while...take a deep breath and ask yourself if you genuinely believe that THE most efficient and sensible way to recover Nr is to flare. If I asked that exact question to a 1000 helicopter pilots in the street and without warning, what do you hand on heart really think they will say DB?
