I suspect most have seen this video before, I saw it a year or so ago...
When I first saw what was being done... I knew what was about to happen. Glad the pilot did not get hurt worse... or anyone on the ground. http://www.chonday.com/Videos/chopersteelrope2 _________________ John Morgan PP-SEL Former member PRA Member PeachState Rotorcraft club Member Sunstate Rotor & Wing Club Owner/builder of The Subinator: Single place Dominator/Subaru EA-81 (currently in full restoration) Soon to offer machine shop services |

He would have been fine if his dumb @55 ground crew hadn't jumped up and grabbed the cable pulling it directly into the rotor.
