Keep Army pilots in the Army.......

So here's a thought:

Since the Army can't do full contact autos in the UH-72 (per the Army UH-72 flight manual), Army pilots will no longer qualify for the FAA Comp to get a Priv./Commercial Rotary Wing license. Full contact autos are required maneuver per the FAA.

This may actually have the unintended consequence of keeping Army pilots in the Army. Bad for future CWO's, but good for the Army.
