How does a throttle position problem translate into the above?
Generally, if you have a tail rotor problem, or spinning with the engine torque, you might want to reduce the throttle to help reduce the spinning.
Most Squirrels have a stupid throttle lever position/location either on the floor or on the roof. So how do you do a hovering auto if you have to let go the lever?
Apparently this type was a B3 with a sensible throttle position on the lever. So the pilot would be able to control throttle without having to let go the lever.
