r22

As a r22/44 uk pplh i must add that when i fly i not only look at the instriments i listen to the engine, loss of e and r gage would indicate just that to me, loss of the gages.I have seen it hapen to a chap in an r44 who flew for aprox 20 miles with the sweat running down his face and do the worst landing i have ever seen, he said he did not know if the engine was going to stop!
My instructor has been fantastic, he does not mince his words, he puts it this way, if you do that you will die, at first this worried me but now has given me huge respect for flying and the dangers of cowboy pilots.
