Looking for Fact-Checking Help (Helicopter Crash Scene in a Novel)

[Borzoi]

Hello pilots,

 

my name is Sybille, and I'm in the midst of finalizing my first novel (part sci-fi, part fantasy). I hope this isn't too much of an imposition, but I was wondering if one of you might be willing to help me out with a very brief fact-check.

 

One scene in my book deals with a helicopter crash; since my knowledge of helicopters and flying techniques tends towards zero, I need to verify that what I wrote isn't total rubbish from a technical standpoint. I really want to get this right, and due to a deplorable lack of real-life pilot friends, I was hoping one of you might be kind enough to lend a hand.

 

It's just one paragraph that needs fact-checking, so it shouldn't be too time-consuming.

 

I would be immensely grateful for any volunteers!

 

Thank you so much!

Sybille

I'll give it a try. You can PM me with it if you want.

Sybille, I sent you a PM.
