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?
He wanted to know if anyone had anything positive to say about VRS? Well I do,...it saved my life once!,...and it was in a 44!
I don't know what the FAA calls it when you have insufficient power to stop your decent, but I call it FTS.
FULL THROTTLE STUPID!
"Sunshine"? HA! No one who's ever met me would ever call me that! It was a good laugh though!
