Fijdor:
It seems TC and TC (get it: transport canada and thomas coupling) are singing from the same hymn sheet. Probably because they are not american
Are we all agreed now that you and others who say they have entered VRS several times - haven't really? It;s almost certainly IVRS.

R22butters:
C'mon now sunshine - you can do better than that, three or four hooks on your fishing line (R22, IIMC, scud running, VRS). - no subtlety at all.

Rotorbee:
For clarification - what do the FAA call the engine performance phenomena where the power available to a helicopter attempting to stop a descent is insufficient to prevent that aircraft from stopping - IE: Settling with Power?
Do they call it: Power Settling?
