Ascend C.

if this true, then he must have pulled some other tricks too, as there is a start cut-out when the clutch is engaged and the rotor is below flying rpm.
However all these overtime/abuse stories actually give one hell of a testimony to the quality of Robinson blades!
I saw once a tree branch of about 5 inches across cleanly "milled" through to less then 1 inch, by a R-44 blade, before it decided it wa enough! It really looked like cut with a huge millhead! It is awesome how much it takes to destroy them.

Another interesting question about McCoy the black railroad engineer (if this one is true.... ) would be, how a black man living in the north of the split US got to a scottish/irish name?
