Yes JD, im sober now.
And for a blade to hit the boom is one thing, but to slice any part of the cab is way past the teetering range, shearing tusks n all.
While low/0 G is an obvious no no with teetering rotors, a couple of the listed breakups were at or near hover.
No bad air and no indication of a collective dump.
Iv spent alot of time watching and in mustering R22s, in all types of air.
These machines are under real stress, way over Franks intended use.
Most attention in the report is on blade instability because of its integrity and inertia.
Hell, what iv seen robbi blades do with a skilled mustering pilot, with never an inflight chop up, i think the tree they are barking at is the wrong one.
Just dont add up.
Time for more reaserch for me.
Didnt feel patronised in any way Crab, my skin is pretty thick mate.
