R91 Gotta put that huge blade disc against the wind ! looks like he slowed to 10 knots or less before touchdown....makes the R22 auto a real piece of cake in comparison..

Corbec Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 (edited) The H-60 has a high flare in an auto as well. Seems to be a Sikorsky thing. Also, a lot of weight = a lot of momentum. Edited May 7, 2007 by Corbec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
