S58t

I didn't realize a 58T could do this.

No reason why it shouldn't. But why would you want to?

Royal Thai Air Force - you need to be able to do that to dodge the all the incoming and outgoing political leaders !!

 

One reason I'm not a big fan of YouTube - for every half dozen of these ones that are posted, you get the "lawn dart" one.

Am I getting old or did they loop that 58...I'm sure that Sikorksy (and the guy's engineer) approve fully...a 19 mm wrench leaves a nice impression on a pilot's forehead.

That's why I posted the link Mark. I couldn't believe a fully articulated rotor head could do that. I had always thought that the only machine that could do that was a rigid rotor system. Time to rethink, I wonder if a 212 could do it? Probably not!!

You are not getting old. Those weren't loops.
