It wasn't an autorotation, he was doing high speed fly-bys with high speed pull-ups and 180 degree turns, on this one, he pulled out of the dive too late.
@69adrummer Tail rotor failures are a different animal. It depends on the ship, soem can still maintain airworthiness with total tail rotor failure, jsut makes the landing trickier. A LOT trickier.
I was just instructed on how to do these today. (In a CBi) We came into a hover, though. I'm a little nervous, but I suspect he's going to have me do it by myself next time.

This is for an engine failure, is it not? What have you got in the case of a tail rotor failure, God forbid?
