Yea, as a PP I always liked the fact that a plane can still glide with a dead stick. A helo becomes a big rock.


Why dont you google "autorotation" and then you can retract your statement.

A problem? Retract? I made a comment about a helicopter not your wife.

Perhaps Taco280AI could help you discover the difference between inimical and cordial; you know, between your correcting other folls and asking for retractions.

Is There a problem therein if you don't know how to manage a class IV airway in the ER?
