What ever happened to the modified S76 that you had with the nose extention to develope Fly by Wire technology.

Dave

If these helicopters were fitted with AFCS ( Automatic Flight Control Sytems) or just the basic yaw control then surely you would just keep your feet of the pedals during the flare

Nick

Would it be practical/feasable for the fly by wire A/C to recocnise a engine failure and automatically enter Autorotation into wind, Flare, level (on Radalt) and land with no pilot intevention.

And finaly

Would you trust IT
