I agree with FB and JE.

The most appropriate immediate actions really have to be type specific (which is why I replied to SAS's post by saying that were were too many variables to give a "one size fits all" answer).

The favourite saying of some is "lucky left, rotten right" when it comes to TR failures / malfunctions. That only works if you fly "American Rotation" rotor bladed aircraft.

It's more accurate to say that the "lucky" side is the retreating blade side.
