Icewind Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I know you guys love these videos....... My questions to you are...... Is this an acceptable manuevre ? Would you like to be a passenger in the back ? How much do you have to pay for such a ride ? Have fun..... When this video first circulated, I remember reading that the main rotor actually grazed the top of the tail boom drive shaft cover and came within 1/2 inch of the drive shaft. There is no telling what sort of damage was done from looking at the the video, but I'm sure the engineers would have that thing grounded for quite awhile........... They were within a fraction of an inch of being a tumbling ball of disintegration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark_ Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Yeah I remember this one...see the flex in the tailboom and the skids. To play with peoples lives in that manner is unnaceptable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet B Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 The only question I have is if you were the pilot in that video... Would you throw your underwear away or try to clean it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_ Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I don't think that particular pair of gitch could ever be worn again. He probably had to put some ice on that bruise under his armpit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
