Never mind tail rotor safe I would nearly be more concerned that passengers would take a step or two backwards!!!!!!

Geologists Love this stuff

Hey beamender99.....read it, yes good article, thank You....sadly, it's much worse than that & now the monsoons here there's over a million People sleeping in makeshift tents, or (now) sun brittled tarps. (it is an unfolding tragedy with no end in sight)

Om Solar.......Brother so I've delivered the package (Safe&Sound) what they do once firmly on Terra-firma is their choices/destiny/Karma, it's in their hands??? If there actions are gonna end their Life I could have parked 15 meters from the ledge but they'd have walked through the tail-rotor only to fall off the cliff??? So at least I've eliminated the risk of my SLB messing up my day!! by bumbling through my tail-rotor (as has happened here a few times) besides, many steps on farming terraces ares so high & close, that is so tight you don't have the clearance to land more in on the Terra-firma :eek: distance landed in is depended on the conditions :8

Do Guard that tail-rotor over a ledge every-time the terrain presents that opportunity....that's good ground Airmanship :ooh: :ok:

Take Good Care & Be Happy :)

Hi VF
I agree that the that's the safest place for the tail rotor, seen a few close calls over the years of passengering on and off the rigs and I would rather someone walked of the edge than into the T/R.

The guy in the black helicopter deserves a beer from me.

Makes the "sloping" landing & T/Os we practice as PPLHs a tad tame to say the least.

Take care
