And with the AS350B3e and EC130T2 the FADEC controls all. If you try to select ground idle in flight with the collective still 'up' it wont let you, it carries on (after a short blip) in flight mode. You then can not re-select ground idle, you have to shut the engine down in flight idle to reset it. You can only go to idle with the collective (almost) down first.
Bullsheet meter = 1,000%
this is complete rubbish
I have practiced Autos in the 350B3, B3+, H125 & H130T2 & I know that when You close the throttle at MCP or even higher power setting the engine immediately throttles down to ground idle, this is at any speed, height or lever position. Returning immediately to flight idle the moment the throttle is reopened
Auto's could NOT be practiced if this were not the case
Happy & Healthy New Years
