I remember , it used to be part of a check test flight on the Sea King for tail rotor. When you want to stop going backwards and you push the cyclic forwards, you really get a windscreen full of ground as you get the flapping disk action plus the forward cyclic. Even expecting it, it makes your bum start eating the seat!
