Perhaps your control touch left you thinking a 1G+ feeling in your hind end was normal?

Care to offer a serious answer to the questions?
Do you really not "get" that when you rapidly lower the collective in response to a complete loss of engine drive, without moving the cyclic, the g will fall to near zero or even below if you are in the cruise, and thus the Nr will continue to decay despite collective on the floor. Scary if so. I do hope you are just being obtuse!
