Can anyone comment about the ride quality of helicopters with stiff rotors versus that of fixed-wing planes?
Dave,
For the most part, (I would believe) any heli is better in turbulance for "ride" than fixed wing, for the simple fact that most of the turbulence the blades feel is not transferred to the fuselage. (Of course staying within the heli's limitations for said turbulence, etc.)
I wonder if Shawn would agree, certainly down here in SoFla, I'd rather be in a heli in thermal activity than be bounced around in a Cessna ...
