Stupid. He just trashed the drive line. about $270,000 on the low side. It's what Bell calls sudden stoppage . and the control feed back trashes the servos and controls lucky it didn't bend a servo extension and screw the pooch on the spot

I have to seriously ask the question. Where do these guys get training at?
But more over ..... how the faque do they get jobs flying these great expensive choppers with that little brain and experience?????? _________________  A walk in the woods helps me relax and release tension.

 That really didn't look like a safe space to have landed a chopper...._________________ It's never too late to be a bad example. I spent all my money on Bikes, Broads, and Booze, the rest I wasted. |

I am pretty sure someone flying that chopper some time in the near future will discover what damage was actually done just then

WOW!
The fact he didn't put it back down is unthinkable in my book. _________________ Waterboarding Works |

I bet he was suffering from some major butt puckering syndrome until he could land somewhere and take a good look...
Like when you back your car into a post or something and you pretend you dont care... when all along you cant wait to get out and see what damage you have done.... Times 1000 being in a helicopter and you just hit your rotors on something  Remember the head ficker!!  _________________ I do all of my own stunts..... most of them are even planned!
