Really well that doesn't work in a Hughes 500, 355,206 or 341.
Or have i read your post wrong ? How can the airframe hold the same attitude for every speed range as the disc has to project more air rearwards and downwards to hold a faster speed so the nose must be closer to the horizon.
Having just spent 20 hours in the past 3 days flying with 650kgs on a longline under a 500 at 60 kts i can assure you that the disc is nowhere near the horizon compared to a 130 kt cruise. The 500 is the same age as a 206 !
