Collective Bias:
The present aircraft I'm in is the only one I've ever flown any significant time in that has SAMM servoes. There's no apparent difference as to jack stall.

The "Limit" light- at least on the 355- mirrors the servo transparency on the 350. It's not uncommon in flight.

Droopy, the maintenance manual citation is exactly what I'm looking for- if and when it's convenient, I'd appreciate it. The aircraft subject to this disagreement is a B2, same head and blades as a...

AS350 blades, winds, and tiedown/braces
