The pilot must simultaneously apply aft cyclic and down collective in order to maintain rotor rpm and execute a successful autorotation.
However, the pilot’s autorotation training was done at airspeeds below cruise where less aft cyclic is needed to enter an autorotation.
You Bill Clinton Wannabees and drop outs from English Grammar courses in Junior High School need to quit trying to parse words.

Since you are all very challenged re sentence construction and the elements of Grammar that means you are quite wrong and need to pay attention.

Simultaneously......is defined to mean "At the same time".....the usage of the phrase "Aft Cyclic AND Down Collective" is not order specific. Either way it could be written with the words Collective or Cyclic in either sequence means nothing other than the one set of words has to be written before the other.....and that is all the hell it means.

The use of the word "less" connotes Aft Cyclic was required.....but not as much as in a high speed cruise situation.

Jesus Guys.....quit twisting what was written to try to buttress your argument.

This is getting silly.


DB.....as you know some folks at EC due to your 225 experience and background in the past.....how about asking them to replicate the Mosby Crash Scenario for you....and report back what they find out?

I would really like to know if only lowering the Collective while in a level Cruise at 116 Knots in a 350 during an entry into Autorotation and not moving the Cyclic will result in a 40 degree or more Dive.....it cannot be that complicated to find out!

Likewise.....how does one accomplish a 180 degree turn at the same time and ...and lose Rotor RPM....as it is going to be a steep turn from 300 feet in a screaming ass dive where one would assume there would be some G Loading on the Head that would tend to build RPM.....something you all insist G Loading shall do?

Any 350 Drivers willing to try......Devil 49....you fly those EC things.....what you think?
