500e, you do not state what model of aircraft it is for ? I may have one for the R22 from when I started training but not sure if it is still in calibration ?

Cal was for Schweitzer 300, thanks for interest Ef

I always carried a set of streamlined car keys.....they seem to fall at about the same angle....but at half the rate of a 500.
I fell to see a need for a "chart"....all one has to do is look between yer feet as that is about all the 500 will do with comfort.....and little room for thinking yourself into a pickle.

SASless 500 isnt that bad in auto, espically if you go from 130 kt cruise. 300 is far worse.

From 9,000 feet AGL over a wilderness area of timber in Alaska it was!:eek:
Way...way...way too much time to think about what was going on!:uhoh:
Much better if it is at 130 knots and 100 feet agl!
