I tried pulling back harder
and then easing forward just to see what would happen,
as some people in the winching world seem to believe
that the airspeed should be controlled by the pilot
changing the pitch angle. I found you could vary the
speed by about 5 knots either way


Just out of interest - when pulling back was the 5 knot change one of
increasing or decreasing speed?
