Had it, got away with it with about 10 inches to spare. Didn't like it.
206L fully loaded, wind was initially from the 9 o'clock with low pitch on TR and pedal turn to the right at low speed coming to the hover ending with wind at the 5 o'clock applying full left pedal. The turn continued through a further 120 degrees whilst descending from 10 feet until just above ground ending with the airframe pointing into wind. That's how I learned of the phenomenon, young, lucky to get away with it and wishing I had known beforehand......
