More square peg, round hole arguments........

UH-72s can’t do touch down autos, have a significant limit to the mast moment (should be about as common as TH-57 over-torques now, when the students start wiping out the cockpit while learning to fly)........and cost $2500/hr.

The simplest maneuvers from the Army's Lakota ATM have cautions regarding "mast moment". Touchdown auto and anti-torque maneuvers are PROHIBITED.
