Autorotation technique ~ in a fixed-wing aircraft.
:eek: Autorotation in a Fixed Wing Light Aircraft
This document is based on first finding something to knock one of the wings off. Perhaps a flock of frozen turkeys might do. It also makes suggestions to lighten the load, such as throwing the passengers out. Perhaps at the indicated speed of rotation rate, he may loose some additional weight ~ from all his orifices. Apparently, a second report is to be released. It describes how the pilot can pulsate the throttle at the same rate as the rotation of the craft. This will allow the craft to act as a tractor gyrocopter with a 1-blade rotor. He can then fly off as if nothing had happened. Senior Pilot way wish to merge this thread with the 'Autorotation technique' thread, later. Alternatively, he may wish to throw this thread out, earlier. All in good fun :) Dave |
I don't think they took the problem of all of the transparencies being covered with a film of green smelly slime into account.

What a great idea, exploding bolts to take one wing off! I'll be sure to get this installed when my 182 is up for its 100,000 hour overhaul... I'll be sure to tell the installation engineer to put a safety cover over the button, just to be safe.
NOT!!! If I want to do autos I'll stick the the heli, thanks very much. Anyway, what happens if the structural failure/collision/whatever takes off the wing that is supposed to stay put? Then you'd look REALLY silly. |
