The Vne for an S76 is 155kt, I managed to get it up to 180 briefly when I was travelling quickly with a 35kt tailwind and ran into a front with around 40kt headwind. No engineering problems or aspects to be looked at, the machine can cope with such things.

If you are not pulling its guts out with power, there should be no worries in an R44
