put the fucking colective down damn it! thats an LTE and then he fell in to hes own downwash! lucky you didnt had a mastbump for such low rotor RPM ! your blades could have exploded upwards!
LOW RPM WARNING = COLECTIVE DOWN - CYCLIC FORWARD!
i can hear the pilot pushed the colective even more when it started to spin!
tisk tisk.
(of course... i wasent there, i am siting on my home drinking coffe... BUT. all piltos know. LOW RPM = COLECTIVE DOWN! NOT UP!
@Obelix6 because its a Robinson helicopter and they have low inertia rotor systems and the she was got into VRS quickly and then tried to initate a recovery by pulling more power making things worse. A rookie mistake. She probably wasnt paying as close attention to her RPM also.
If you Google "VH-WYS LTE incident" you'll find the full incident report there in the PDF file.

Thumbs up if you thought this was fake in the beginning with a 12 year old holding a mini helicopter on top of a 12 story building.
